Comparison of 5' UTR structures in Listeria monocytogenes

ABSTRACT: To understand physiological processes in vivo, it is vital to disclose the conformation of biological molecules inside living cells and correlate their structure with their function. Here, we describe a method, FUSE (5’-UTR Structure Elucidation) that was used to characterize changes in the structures of 5’-UTRs at different conditions inside the human bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. Using FUSE, we discovered a novel RNA thermoswitch and calculated the ratio of two conformations that this thermoswitch assumes at different conditions. FUSE could also identify the site of base-pairing interaction between a small RNA and mRNA with a single-nucleotide resolution. Strikingly, FUSE discovered a functional mRNA-mRNA interaction, where the stability of mRNA encoding PrsA2 chaperone, was increased by the direct binding of an mRNA encoding its substrate, listeriolysin O, the main L. monocytogenes virulence factor. Owing to its focus on 5’-UTRs, FUSE can be applied to analyse these regulatory regions in any living organism.

Functional and structural basis of extreme conservation in vertebrate 5’ untranslated regions [icm2]

Project description:The lack of knowledge about extreme conservation in genomes remains a major gap in our understanding of the evolution of gene regulation. Here, we reveal an unexpected role of extremely conserved 5’UTRs in non-canonical translational regulation that is linked to the emergence of essential developmental features in vertebrate species. Endogenous deletion of conserved elements within these 5’UTRs decreased gene expression, and extremely conserved 5’UTRs possess cis-regulatory elements that promote cell-type specific regulation of translation. We further developed in-cell mutate-and-map (icM2), a novel methodology that maps RNA structure inside cells. Using icM2, we determined that an extremely conserved 5’UTR encodes multiple alternative structures and that each single nucleotide within the conserved element maintains the balance of alternative structures important to control the dynamic range of protein expression. These results explain how extreme sequence conservation can lead to RNA-level biological functions encoded in the untranslated regions of vertebrate genomes.

Optimizing 5’UTRs for mRNA-delivered gene editing using deep learning

Project description:mRNA therapeutics are revolutionizing the pharmaceutical industry, but methods to optimize the primary sequence for increased expression are still lacking. Here, we design 5’UTRs for efficient mRNA translation using deep learning. We perform polysome profiling of fully or partially randomized 5'UTR libraries in three cell types and find that UTR performance is highly correlated across cell types. We train models on all our datasets and use them to guide the design of high-performing 5’UTRs using gradient descent and generative neural networks. We experimentally test designed 5’UTRs with mRNA encoding megaTALTM gene editing enzymes for two different gene targets and in two different cell lines. We find that the designed 5’UTRs support strong gene editing activity. Editing efficiency is correlated between cell types and gene targets, although the best performing UTR was specific to one cargo and cell type. Our results highlight the potential of model-based sequence design for mRNA therapeutics.

In-cell structure analysis of antisense Gadd45α SINEB2-a deletion mutants

Project description:SINEUPs are SINE repeat element containig long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)which positively regulate target mRNA translation at post-transcription level. SINE RNA region is crucial for SINEUP function. To analyze the effect of sequence deletion on RNA secondary structure of SINEB2 RNA derived from mouse natural antisense lncRNA to Gadd45α gene, RNA structure of four deletion mutants were chemically probed inside cells. For this, different structure mutants and target EGFP mRNA plasmids were co-transfected in HEK293 cells and icSHAPE libraries were prepared.

PolyA Sequencing of K562 Cells

Project description:RNA chemical structure analysis using icSHAPE and icLASER reveals hexameric sequences that have structure differences inside and outside of cells. One such sequence that had higher in-cell reactivity was the sites of polyadenylation or PAS sequence within the 3’-UTRs. We aimed to understand this difference as we postulated it could be utilized to predict transcriptome-wide polyadenylation. To obtain direct positions with high polyadenylation sequence signal, we generated the first polyadenylation sequencing data (PAS-seq) for K562 cells. PAS-seq uses polyA tail priming to identify the sites of polyA tail selection directly. Inspection of PAS reads demonstrated clear buildup of read depth at the 3’-end of transcripts and we obtained sites of high PAS read depth and low PAS read depth.

Unraveling cis-regulatory elements by mapping structural changes in mRNAs

Project description:mRNA molecules are generally thought to be messengers of genetic information in the cell. Stretches of RNA that are complementary in sequence have a propensity to pair, forming elements of secondary structure within RNA molecules. Although these structures will exist in every mRNA molecule, the role they play in gene regulation is not well understood. Currently two techniques are available to profile the cell RNA structure, in-vivo, in an unbiased manner. We applied one of those techniques, DMS-seq, for probing the human mRNA structure in primary foreskin fibroblasts (HFFs) along human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection. As a proof of concept, using DMS-seq, we managed to predict the already solved human 28S rRNA structure with high accuracy. Using our data, we are able to show for the first time in-vivo, that human coding sequences (CDSs) are less structured relative to UTRs. Additionally, we provide systematic in-vivo evidences for unwinding of the mRNA by the ribosomes during translation. Intriguingly, we also found structural changes in human CDSs around the start and stop codon, and also in 3’UTRs. The combination of accurate measurements of translation regulation and mapping changes in mRNA structure along a dynamic process can be used as a platform for deciphering cis-regulatory elements that control gene expression in various cell types, organisms and biological processes.

Cohesin and CTCF control chromosomal contact dynamics in living cells [capture C]

Project description:Mammalian chromosomes are partitioned into topologically associating domains (TADs) by the loop-extrusion activity of cohesin that is blocked at specific DNA sites bound by CTCF. Chromosome structure inside TADs is highly variable in single cells, yet little is known about its temporal dynamics, how it influences the rates and durations of chromosomal contacts, and how it depends on CTCF and cohesin. To address these questions we combine two quantitative live-cell imaging strategies that minimize locus-specific confounding effects. We show that loop extrusion by cohesin globally reduces the mobility of the chromatin fiber in living cells, while also increasing the rates of formation and durations of contacts between sequences inside the same TAD. Quantitative analysis of high-resolution microscopy data reveals that contacts assemble and disassemble frequently in the course of the cell cycle, and become substantially more frequent and longer in the presence of convergent CTCF sites. Comparison with polymer modeling additionally reveals that cohesin-mediated CTCF loops last around 10 minutes on average. Our data support the notion that chromosome structure within TADs is highly dynamic and provide a quantitative framework for understanding the principles that link chromosome structure to biological function.
