Retapamulin-assisted Ribo-seq reveals the alternative bacterial proteome

ABSTRACT: Unorthodox rules of extracting genetic information enable proteome expansion without increasing the genome size. The use of alternative translation initiation sites achieves this goal by allowing production of more than one protein from a single gene. Although several such examples have been serendipitously found in bacteria, genome-wide experimental mapping of alternative translation start sites has been unattainable. We found that the antibiotic retapamulin specifically arrests initiating ribosomes at start codons of the genes. Retapamulin treatment followed by Ribo-seq analysis (Ribo-RET) not only allowed mapping of conventional initiation sites at the beginning of the annotated Escherichia coli genes but, strikingly, it also revealed putative alternative internal start sites in a number of genes. Experimental evidence demonstrated that the internal start codons can be recognized by the ribosomes and direct translation initiation in vitro and in vivo. Proteins, whose translation is initiated at an internal in-frame and out-of-frame start sites, can be functionally important and contribute to the ‘alternative’ bacterial proteome. In addition to proteome expansion, the internal start sites may play regulatory role in gene expression.

Genome-wide search for novel human uORFs and N-terminal protein extensions using ribosomal footprinting

Project description:So far, the annotation of translation initiation sites (TISs) has been based mostly upon bioinformatics rather than experimental evidence. We adapted ribosomal footprinting to puromycin-treated cells to generate a transcriptome-wide map of TISs in a human monocytic cell line. A neural network was trained on the ribosomal footprints at previously annotated AUG translation initiation codons (TICs), and used for the ab initio prediction of TISs in 5062 transcripts with sufficient sequence coverage. Functional interpretation suggested 2994 novel upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5´ UTR (924 AUG, 2070 near-cognate codons), 1406 uORFs overlapping with the coding sequence (116 AUG, 1290 near-cognate) and 546 N-terminal protein extensions (6 AUG, 540 near-cognate). The TIS detection method was validated on the basis of previously published alternative TISs and uORFs. On average, TICs in newly annotated TISs were significantly more conserved among primates than control codons, both for AUGs (p<10-10) and near-cognate codons (p=3.8×10-3). The derived transcriptome-wide map of novel candidate TISs will help to explain how human proteome diversity is influenced by alternative translation initiation and regulation.

Bi-directional ribosome scanning controls the stringency of start codon selection

Project description:The fidelity of start codon recognition by ribosomes is paramount during protein synthesis. The textbook knowledge of eukaryotic translation initiation depicts 5’→3’ unidirectional migration of the pre-initiation complex (PIC) along the 5’UTR. In probing translation initiation from ultra-short 5’UTR, we report that an AUG triplet near the 5’ end can be selected via PIC backsliding. The bi-directional ribosome scanning is supported by competitive selection of closely spaced AUG codons and recognition of two initiation sites flanking an internal ribosome entry site. Transcriptome-wide PIC profiling reveals footprints with an oscillation pattern near the 5’ end and start codons. Depleting the RNA helicase eIF4A leads to reduced PIC oscillations and impaired selection of 5’ end start codons. Enhancing the ATPase activity of eIF4A promotes nonlinear PIC scanning and stimulates upstream translation initiation. The helicase-mediated PIC conformational switch may provide an operational mechanism that unifies ribosome recruitment, scanning, and start codon selection.

Detection of cryptic start codons in set2D by 5PSeq

Project description:We investigated cryptic transcription start site usage, chromatin organization and post-transcriptional consequences in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We used 5PSeq approach, which measures ribosome dynamics by sequencing the presence of co-translation mRNA degradation intermediates, to assess if cryptic transcripts are engaged in active translation. We show that chromatin-dependent cryptic transcripts can be recognized by ribosomes and have the potential to produce truncated polypeptides by using downs-stream, in-frame start codons. Our work suggests that a significant fraction of chromatin-dependent internal cryptic promoters are in fact alternative truncated mRNA isoforms.

A coding sequence-embedded principle governs translational reading frame fidelity

Project description:Upon initiation at an AUG start codon, the ribosome must maintain the correct reading frame for hundreds of codons in order to produce functional proteins. Although some sequence elements are able to trigger programmed ribosomal frameshifting (PRF), very little is known how the ribosome normally prevents spontaneous frameshift errors. Using high resolution ribosome profiling data sets, we discovered that the translating ribosome uses the 3’ end of 18S rRNA to scan the AUG-like codons after the decoding process. The internal mRNA:rRNA interaction not only contributes to predominant translational pausing, but also provides a post-decoding mechanism to safeguard the ribosome in the correct reading frame. Partially eliminating the AUG-like “sticky” codons in the reporter message leads to increased +1 frameshift errors. Remarkably, mutating the highly conserved CAU triplet of 18S rRNA globally changes codon “stickiness”. Further supporting the role of “sticky” sequences in reading frame maintenance, the codon composition of open reading frames is highly optimized across eukaryotic genomes by minimizing the appearance of AUG-like codons in the frame 2. These results suggest an important layer of information embedded within the protein coding sequences that instructs the ribosome to ensure reading frame fidelity during translation.

Chromatin-dependent cryptic promoters encode alternative protein isoforms in yeast

Project description:Cryptic transcription is widespread and generates a heterogeneous group of RNA molecules of unknown function. To improve our understanding of cryptic transcription, we investigated their transcription start site usage, chromatin organization and post-transcriptional consequences in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We show that transcription start sites of chromatin-dependent internal cryptic transcripts resemble those of protein coding genes in terms of DNA sequence, directionality and chromatin accessibility. We define the 5’ and 3’ boundaries of cryptic transcripts and show that, contrary to RNA degradation-dependent ones , they often overlap with the end of the gene thereby using the canonical polyadenylation site and associate to polyribosomes. In fact, we show that chromatin-dependent cryptic transcripts can be recognized by ribosomes and may produce truncated polypeptides from downstream, in-frame start codons. Our work suggests that a significant fraction of chromatin-dependent internal cryptic promoters are in fact alternative truncated mRNA isoforms. The expression of these chromatin-dependent isoforms is conserved from yeast to human expanding the functional consequences of cryptic transcription and proteome complexity.

Nuclear release of eIF1 globally increases translation initiation stringency during mitosis

Project description:Regulated translation initiation has the potential to reshape the proteome, but conditions under which start codon selection is altered remain poorly defined. Here, using global translation initiation site profiling, we reveal widespread changes in start codon selection during the mammalian cell cycle. Low-efficiency initiation sites are preferentially repressed in mitosis, resulting in changes in the relative translation of thousands of annotated proteins, alternative translational isoforms, and uORFs. This increased mitotic translational stringency results from the cytoplasmic release of a nuclear pool of eIF1 upon nuclear envelope breakdown. Increased eIF1-40S ribosome interactions repress suboptimal initiation sites to rewire the mitotic proteome. Selectively depleting the nuclear pool of eIF1 eliminates changes to translational stringency during mitosis, resulting in substantially increased cell death following an extended mitotic delay induced by anti-mitotic chemotherapeutics. Thus, cells globally control translation initiation stringency to alter their physiology with critical roles during the mammalian cell cycle.

Start codon-associated ribosomal frameshifting mediates nutrient stress adaptation

Project description:A translating ribosome is typically thought to follow the reading frame defined by the selected start codon. Using super-resolution ribosome profiling, here we report pervasive out-of-frame translation from the start codon. Unlike programmable frameshifting during elongation, start codon-associated ribosome frameshifting (SCARF) stems from the slippage of the initiating ribosome. Using a massively paralleled reporter assay, we uncovered sequence elements acting as SCARF enhancers or repressors, implying that start codon recognition is coupled with reading frame fidelity. This finding explains thousands of mass spectrometry spectra unannotated from human proteome. Mechanistically, we find that the eukaryotic initiation factor 5B (eIF5B) maintains the reading frame fidelity during the transition from initiation to elongation. Intriguingly, amino acid starvation induces SCARF by proteasomal degradation of eIF5B. The stress-induced SCARF products provide a degradative source to mitigate amino acid scarcity during starvation. Our findings illustrate the beneficial effect of divergent translation in nutrient stress adaptation.

Altered proteome in translationinitiation fidelity defective eIF5G31R mutant causes oxidative stress and DNA damage

Project description:The recognition of AUG start codon and selection of the open reading frame (ORF) is fundamental to protein biosynthesis. Defect in the start codon selection adversely affectproteome and have a pleiotropic effect on cellular function. Using proteomic techniques, we identified differential protein expression patterns in the translation initiation defectivehyper GTPaseeIF5G31R mutant cells. Consistently, we observed altered proteome involved in protein catabolism, nucleotide metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, glycolysis, and autophagy.The utilization of the upstream UUG codons by the eIF5G31R mutation caused downregulation of uridylate kinase expression and DNA damage. The eIF5G31R mutant cells showed lower Glutathione levels, high ROS activity, and sensitivity to H2O2.
