Unbiased screen of RNA tailing enzymes reveals a poly(UG) polymerase required for genome integrity and RNA silencing

ABSTRACT: Ribonucleotidyl transferases (rNTases) add non-templated ribonucleotides to diverse RNAs. We developed a screening strategy in S. cerevisiae to identify sequences added by candidate enzymes from different organisms at single-nucleotide resolution. The rNTase activities of 19 previously unexplored enzymes were determined. In addition to poly(A)- and poly(U)-adding enzymes, we identified a C-adding enzyme that is likely part of a two-enzyme system that adds CCA to tRNAs in a eukaryote; a nucleotidyl transferase that adds nucleotides to RNA without apparent nucleotide preference; and a poly(UG) polymerase, C. elegans MUT-2, which adds alternating U and G nucleotides to form poly(UG) tails. MUT-2 is known to be required for certain forms of RNA silencing, and mutations in the enzyme that are defective in silencing also fail to add poly(UG) tails in our assay. We propose that MUT-2 poly(UG) polymerase activity is required to promote genome integrity and RNA silencing.

tRNAs marked with CCACCA are targeted for degradation

Project description:The CCA-adding enzyme adds CCA to the 3' ends of transfer RNAs (tRNAs), a critical step in tRNA biogenesis that generates the amino acid attachment site. We found that the CCA-adding enzyme plays a key role in tRNA quality control by selectively marking unstable tRNAs and tRNA-like small RNAs for degradation. Instead of adding CCA to the 3' ends of these transcripts, CCA-adding enzymes from all three kingdoms of life add CCACCA. Here, we report deep sequencing analysis of the 3' ends of tRNA-Ser-CGA and tRNA-Ser-UGA from S. cerevisiae strains and show that hypomodified mature tRNAs are subjected to CCACCA (or poly(A) addition) as part of a rapid tRNA decay pathway in vivo. We conjecture that CCACCA addtion is a universal mechanism for controlling tRNA levels and preventing errors in translation. 121 samples analyzed in total, representing time courses of 10 different yeast strains; Biological replicates for each time point are included

poly(UG)-tailed RNAs in Genome Protection and Epigenetic Inheritance [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Mobile genetic elements threaten genome integrity in all organisms. MUT-2/RDE-3 is a ribonucleotidyltransferase required for transposon silencing and RNA interference (RNAi) in C. elegans. When tethered to RNAs in heterologous expression systems, RDE-3 can add long stretches of alternating non-templated uridine (U) and guanosine (G) ribonucleotides to the 3’ termini of these RNAs (polyUG or pUG tails). Here, we show that, in its natural context in C. elegans, RDE-3 adds pUG tails to transposon RNAs, as well as to targets of RNAi. pUG tails with more than 16 perfectly alternating 3’ U and G nucleotides convert RNA fragments into agents of gene silencing. pUG tails promote gene silencing by recruiting RNA-dependent RNA Polymerases (RdRPs), which use pUG-tailed RNAs (pUG RNAs) as templates to synthesize small interfering RNAs (siRNAs). Our results show that cycles of pUG RNA-templated siRNA synthesis and siRNA-directed mRNA pUGylation underlie dsRNA-directed transgenerational epigenetic inheritance in the C. elegans germline. We speculate that this pUG RNA/siRNA silencing loop allows parents to inoculate progeny against the expression of unwanted or parasitic genetic elements.

Oppositional Poly(A) Tail Length Regulation by FMRP and CPEB1

Project description:Poly(A) tail length is regulated in both the nucleus and cytoplasm. One factor that controls polyadenylation in the cytoplasm is CPEB1, an RNA binding protein that associates with specific mRNA 3’UTR sequences to tether enzymes that add and remove poly(A). Two of these enzymes, the noncanonical poly(A) polymerases Gld2 (TENT2, PAPD4, Wispy) and Gld4 (TENT4B, PAPD5, TRF4, TUT3), interact with CPEB1 to extend poly(A). To identify additional RNA binding proteins that might anchor Gld4 to RNA, we expressed double tagged Gld4 in U87MG cells, which was used for sequential immunoprecipitation and elution followed by mass spectrometry. We identified several RNA binding proteins that co-precipitated with Gld4, among which was FMRP. To assess whether FMRP regulates polyadenylation, we performed TAIL-seq from WT and FMRP-deficient HEK293 cells. Surprisingly, loss of FMRP resulted in an overall increase in poly(A), which was also observed for several specific mRNAs. Conversely, loss of CPEB1 elicited an expected decrease in poly(A), which was examined in cultured neurons. We also examined polyadenylation in wild type (WT) and FMRP-deficient mouse brain cortex by direct RNA Nanopore™ sequencing, which identified RNAs with both increased and decreased poly(A). Our data show that FMRP has a role in mediating poly(A) tail length, which adds to its repertoire of RNA regulation.

Metabolic changes related to the IDH1 mutation in gliomas preserve TCA-cycle activity: an investigation at the protein level

Project description:The discovery of the IDH1 R132H (IDH1 mut) mutation in low-grade glioma and the associated change in function of the IDH1 enzyme has increased the interest in glioma metabolism. In an earlier study, we found that changes in expression of genes involved in the aerobic glycolysis and the TCA-cycle are associated with IDH1 mut. Here we apply proteomics to FFPE samples of diffuse gliomas with or without IDH1 mutations, in order to map changes in protein levels associated with this mutation. We observed significant changes in the enzyme abundance associated with aerobic glycolysis, glutamate metabolism and the TCA-cycle in IDH1 mut gliomas. Specifically, the enzymes involved in the metabolism of glutamate, lactate and enzymes involved in the conversion of α-ketoglutarate were increased in IDH1 mut gliomas. In addition, the bicarbonate transporter (SLC4A4) was increased in IDH1 mut gliomas, supporting the idea that a mechanism preventing intracellular acidification is active. We also found that enzymes that convert proline, valine, leucine and isoleucine into glutamate were increased in IDH1 mut glioma. We conclude that in IDH1 mut glioma metabolism is rewired (increased input of lactate and glutamate) to preserve TCA cycle activity in IDH1 mut gliomas.
