Chromatin associated RNA sequencing during the IFN response induced by poly(I:C)

ABSTRACT: Type-I Interferons (IFNs) are central components of the antiviral response in vertebrates. Most cell types have the ability to respond to viral infection by secreting IFNs, however, the mechanisms that regulate correct expression of these cytokines are still not completely understood. Here, we show that activation of the IFN response regulates the expression of miRNAs in a post-transcriptional manner. Specifically, IFN impairs the binding of the nuclear Microprocessor complex to pri-miRNAs, which leads to a transient accumulation of unprocessed pri-miRNAs and consequently, decreased levels of specific miRNAs. We propose a model by which the inhibition of Microprocessor activity is an essential step to induce a robust type-I IFN response in mammalian cells.

Differential roles of human PUS10 in miRNA processing and tRNA pseudouridylation

Project description:Pseudouridine synthases (PUSs) are responsible for the installation of pseudouridine (Ψ) modification in RNA. However, the activity and function of the PUS enzymes remain largely unexplored. Here we focus on human PUS10 and find that it co-expresses with the microprocessor (DROSHA–DGCR8 complex). Depletion of PUS10 results in a marked reduction of the expression level of a large number of mature miRNAs and concomitant accumulation of unprocessed primary microRNAs (pri-miRNAs) in multiple human cells. Mechanistically, PUS10 directly binds to pri-miRNAs and interacts with the microprocessor to promote miRNA biogenesis. Unexpectedly, this process is independent of the catalytic activity of PUS10. Additionally, we develop a sequencing method to profile Ψ in the tRNAome and report PUS10-dependent Ψ sites in tRNA. Collectively, our findings reveal differential functions of PUS10 in nuclear miRNA processing and in cytoplasmic tRNA pseudouridylation.

High-throughput in vitro DROSHA processing on artificial variants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that regulate gene expression. miRNAs are produced from primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs), the cleavage of which is catalyzed by the Microprocessor complex. Microprocessor therefore plays a key role in determining the efficiency and precision of miRNA production, and thus the function of the final miRNA product. In this study, we utilized high-throughput sequencing-integrated enzymology with purified Microprocessor proteins and randomized pri-miRNA sequences to investigate the catalytic mechanism of Microprocessor. We identified multiple mismatches and wobble base pairs in the upper stem of pri-miRNAs, which determine the efficiency and accuracy of pri-miRNA processing. The existence of these RNA elements helps to explain the alternative cleavage mechanism of Microprocessor, which occurs for some human pri-miRNAs. We also showed that these RNA elements are targets of RNA-editing or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for regulating miRNA biogenesis. These findings considerably improve our understanding of pri-miRNA processing mechanisms, and provide a foundation for interpreting differential miRNA expression by several mechanisms, such as RNA modifications and SNPs.

Microprocessor recruitment to elongating RNA Polymerase II is required for differential expression of microRNAs

Project description:The cellular abundance of mature microRNAs (miRNAs) is dictated by the efficiency of nuclear processing of primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) into pre-miRNA intermediates. The Microprocessor complex of Drosha and DGCR8 carries this out, but it has been unclear what controls Microprocessor's differential processing of various pri-miRNAs. Here, we show that Drosophila DGCR8 (Pasha) directly associates with the C terminal domain of the RNA polymerase II elongation complex when it is phosphorylated by the Cdk9 kinase (pTEFb). When association is blocked by loss of Cdk9 activity, a global change in pri-miRNA processing is detected. Processing of pri-miRNAs with a UGU sequence motif in their apical junction domain increases, while processing of pri-miRNAs lacking this motif decreases. Therefore, phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II recruits Microprocessor for co-transcriptional processing of non-UGU pri-miRNAs that would otherwise be poorly processed. In contrast, UGU-positive pri-miRNAs are robustly processed by Microprocessor independent of RNA polymerase association.

The high-throughput human pri-miRNA processing assays

Project description:Human Microprocessor cleaves pri-miRNAs to initiate miRNA biogenesis. The accuracy and efficiency of Microprocessor cleavage ensure appropriate miRNA sequence and expression and thus its proper gene regulation. However, Microprocessor cleaves many pri-miRNAs incorrectly, so it requires assistance from its many cofactors. For example, SRSF3 enhances Microprocessor cleavage by interacting with the CNNC motif in pri-miRNAs. However, whether SRSF3 can function with other motifs and/or requires the motifs in a certain secondary structure is unknown. In addition, the function of SRSF7 (a paralog of SRSF3) in miRNA biogenesis still needs to be discovered. Here, we demonstrated that SRSF7 could stimulate Microprocessor cleavage. In addition, by conducting high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for Microprocessor and SRSF7 or SRSF3, we demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 function with the CRC and CNNC motifs, adopting certain secondary structures. In addition, SRSF7 and SRSF3 affect the Microprocessor cleavage sites in human cells. Our findings demonstrate the roles of SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis and provide a comprehensive view of the molecular mechanism of SRSF7 and SRSF3 in enhancing Microprocessor cleavage.

The bulges control in pri-miRNA processing in the position and strand-dependent manner

Project description:The microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is responsible for the production of miRNAs that play critical roles in gene expression and numerous human diseases. The adequate biogenesis of miRNAs is largely determined by the efficiency and fidelity of primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) processing by Microprocessor. Here, we investigated the roles of a secondary RNA element, an RNA bulge, in pri-miRNA processing. We discovered that the 3p-strand bulges in positions 7-9 from the Microprocessor cleavage sites (midB_7-9) contributes to determining the cleavage sites of Microprocessor, the 5p- and 3p-strand bugles in positions 10-12 (midB_10-12) blocked the unproductive cleavage, and the 3p-strand bulges in positions 6-7 (seedB) inhibited the productive cleavage of Microprocessor. The 5p-strand midB_10-12 was found enriched and conserved in many pri-miRNAs of humans and other organisms. In addition, by analyzing the published Microprocessor-RNA structure and doing mutagenesis, we identified several amino acid residues of Microprocessor that explains a structure basis for the processing inhibition caused by seedB. The revealed functions of bulges in our study improves our understanding of the pri-miRNA processing by Microprocessor and implies their roles in regulating miRNA expression.

Microprocessor depends on hemin to recognize the apical loop of primary microRNA

Project description:Microprocessor, which consists of a ribonuclease III DROSHA and its cofactor DGCR8, initiates microRNA (miRNA) maturation by cleaving primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs). We recently demonstrated that the DGCR8 dimer recognizes the apical elements of pri-miRNAs, including the UGU motif, to accurately locate and orient Microprocessor on pri-miRNAs. However, the mechanism underlying the selective RNA binding remains unknown. In this study, we find that hemin, a ferric ion-containing porphyrin, enhances the specific interaction between the apical UGU motif and the DGCR8 dimer, allowing Microprocessor to achieve high efficiency and fidelity of pri-miRNA processing in vitro. Furthermore, by generating a DGCR8 mutant cell line and carrying out rescue experiments, we discover that hemin preferentially stimulates the expression of miRNAs possessing the UGU motif, thereby conferring differential regulation of miRNA maturation. Our findings reveal the molecular action mechanism of hemin in pri-miRNA processing and establish a novel function of hemin in inducing specific RNA-protein interaction.

LATS1 is a Central Signal Transmitter for Achieving Full Type-I Interferon Activity

Project description:Interferons (IFNs) possess broad-spectrum antiviral activity to resist virus epidemic. However, IFNs antiviral efficacy needs to be greatly improved. Here, we reveal that LATS1 is a vital signal transmitter governing full type-I-interferon (IFN-I) signaling activity. Importantly, LATS1 deficiency restricts IFN-I signaling and attenuates host antiviral immune response.
