High throughput in vivo mapping of RNA accessible interfaces to identify functional sRNA binding sites

ABSTRACT: These data were obtained using a recently-developed high throughput method to probe regional RNA accessibility by mimicking in vivo antisense hybridization. The method (INTERFACE) is an engineered RNA system (for use in E. coli) that exploits conserved bacterial mechanisms of translational stalling and Rho-dependent transcription termination mechanisms to quantify RNA hybridization (via an asRNA targeting an RNA region of interest) via a transcriptional elongation response. We first establish the high throughput system by evaluating the accessibility profile of a well-characterized gI intron (overexpressed). We then apply this method with bioinformatics and machine learning approaches to profile over 900 RNA-interaction interfaces in 71 validated, but largely mechanistically under-characterized, sRNAs of Escherichia coli, in the presence and absence of a global regulator, Hfq. Importantly, we showcase the utility of INTERFACE in detecting RNA regions whose hybridization is Hfq-sensitive, finding two thirds of tested sRNAs with Hfq dependency. Further, we identify in vivo hybridization patterns that hallmark functional regions in 16 well-characterized sRNAs and couple these insights to a computational target prediction algorithm to identify novel mRNA targets for six under-characterized and two well-characterized sRNAs.

Identification of Hfq bound RNA by co-immunoprecipitation and RNA-sequencing

Project description:Co-immunoprecipitation with endogenous Hfq3xFlag in exponential, stationary, non-induced and virulence induced conditions, followed by RNA-sequencing, revealed 1697 mRNAs and 208 ncRNAs associated with Hfq. We identified 56 new ncRNAs and validated 3 Hfq-dependent trans sRNAs on by Northern blot analysis. Interestingly, 55% of the ncRNAs were encoded antisense to a protein coding sequence. Abundance of 4 asRNAs and their corresponding target mRNAs was altered upon hfq, indicating a substantial influence of Hfq on asRNA-target interactions.

Transcriptome wide mapping of Hfq mediated RNA-RNA interactions in E. coli (RIL-seq)

Project description:Most E. coli sRNAs interact with their mRNA targets through simultaneous binding to the Hfq chaperon. In this experiment we cross-linked RNA to proteins in-vivo then did Hfq IP followed by ligation of bound RNAs and sequencing to identify sRNA-mRNA interactions. We termed the method RIL-seq for RNA Interactions by Ligation - sequencing.

RNA-RNA interactomes of Hfq and ProQ reveal overlapping and competing roles for RNA chaperones

Project description:In many bacteria, the base pairing between most small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) and their targets is facilitated by the Hfq RNA chaperone. However, recent studies have shown FinO-domain proteins also bind sRNAs. To compare the contributions of Hfq and the FinO-domain ProQ protein in Escherichia coli, we carried out RIL-seq, which allows global identification of two RNAs bound to the same protein. We detected hundreds of RNA pairs on ProQ. Intriguingly, 33% of the ProQ-bound RNA pairs are also found associated with Hfq, suggesting overlapping, complementary or competing roles for the two proteins.

Multiple in vivo roles for the C-terminal domain of the RNA chaperone Hfq

Project description:Hfq, a bacterial RNA chaperone, stabilizes small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) and facilitates sRNA base-pairing with target mRNAs. Hfq has a conserved N-terminal domain and a poorly conserved disordered C-terminal domain (CTD). In a transcriptome-wide examination of the effects of a chromosomal CTD deletion (Hfq1-65), the Escherichia coli mutant was most defective for the accumulation of sRNAs that bind the proximal and distal faces of Hfq (Class II sRNAs), but other sRNAs also were affected. There were only modest effects on the levels of mRNAs, suggesting little disruption of sRNA-dependent regulation. However, cells expressing Hfq lacking the CTD deletion in combination with a weak distal face mutation were defective for the function of the Class II sRNA ChiX and repression of mutS, both dependent upon distal face RNA binding. Loss of the region between amino acids 66-72 was critical for this defect. The CTD region beyond amino acid 72 was not necessary for distal face-dependent regulation, but was needed for functions associated with the Hfq rim, seen most clearly in combination with a rim mutant. Our results suggest that the C-terminus collaborates in various ways with different binding faces of Hfq, leading to distinct outcomes for individual sRNAs.

Polynucleotide phosphorylase promotes the stability and function of Hfq-binding sRNAs by degrading target mRNA-derived fragments

Project description:In many gram-negative and some gram-positive bacteria small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) that bind the RNA chaperone Hfq have a pivotal role in modulating virulence, stress responses, metabolism, and biofilm formation. These sRNAs recognize transcripts through base-pairing, and sRNA-mRNA annealing consequently alters the translation and/or stability of transcripts leading to changes in gene expression. We have previously found that the highly conserved 3'-to-5' exoribonuclease polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) has an indispensable role in paradoxically stabilizing Hfq-bound sRNAs and promoting their function in gene regulation in Escherichia coli. Here, we report that PNPase uniquely contributes to the degradation of specific mRNA cleavage products, the majority of which bind Hfq and are derived from targets of sRNAs. Specifically, we found that these mRNA-derived fragments accumulate in the absence of PNPase or its exoribonuclease activity and interact with PNPase. Additionally, we show that mutations in hfq or in the seed pairing region of a sRNA eliminated the requirement of PNPase for sRNA stability. Altogether, our results are consistent with a model that PNPase degrades mRNA-derived fragments that could otherwise deplete cells of Hfq-binding sRNAs through pairing mediated decay.

RNA-sequencing data from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 wild-type and Hfq-tagged strain form co-immunoprecipitation experiment

Project description:The RNA-chaperone Hfq is a global post-transcriptional regulator in Bacteria, important especially for the fine-tuning of the gene expression when the environmental conditions change. We looked into sRNAome during the growth of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 and compared it to a strain without Hfq protein. Numerous sRNAs were upregulated at a specific point during the growth and many were affected in the Hfq absence. Further we identified Hfq-binding RNA transcripts with co-immunoprecipitation and experimentally validated 17 sRNAs. Many novel Hfq-binding sRNAs were identified and are directly or indirectly regulated by Hfq. In addition 1870 mRNAs were found to bind to Hfq during the growth. Together, 202 antisense and 355 intergenic sRNAs have been detected in this study, several of them being 3’UTR- or 5’UTR-derived, and IS-related.

A novel acetyltransferase regulates the RNA binding capacity of the RNA chaperone Hfq in Escherichia coli

Project description:Bacterial small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) regulate gene expression by base-pairing to their target mRNAs. In Escherichia coli and many other bacteria, this process is dependent on the RNA chaperone Hfq, which binds sRNAs and mRNAs on different faces. YhbS (renamed here as HqbA), a putative Gcn5-related N-acetyltransferase (GNAT), was identified as a novel silencer of sRNA signaling in a genomic library screen. Here, we studied how HqbA regulates sRNA signaling and determined its physiological roles in modulating Hfq activity. Using fluorescent reporter assays, we found that HqbA overproduction suppresses all tested Hfq-dependent sRNA signaling. Chromosomal HqbA suppresses the signaling of the ChiX sRNA when the C-terminus of Hfq was deleted. Direct interaction between HqbA and Hfq was demonstrated both in vivo and in vitro, and mutants that blocked interaction also interfered with HqbA suppression of Hfq. However, an acetylation-deficient HqbA mutant still disrupted sRNA signaling, suggesting that HqbA is bifunctional, with separate roles for regulating via Hfq interaction and via acetylation of undefined substrates. Gel shift assays indicated that HqbA strongly reduced the interaction between the Hfq distal face and low-affinity RNAs, but not high-affinity RNAs. Hfq-IP RNA-Seq in WT and chromosomal hqbA mutants led to the identification of two tRNA precursors, metZWV and proM, that were enriched in Hfq binding in the absence of HqbA interaction. Our results suggest that HqbA provides a level of quality control for Hfq by competing with low-affinity RNA binders.
