Dinucleotide regulation by REXO2 maintains promoter specificity in mammalian mitochondria

ABSTRACT: Oligoribonucleases are conserved enzymes that degrade short RNA molecules of up to 5 nt in length, and are assumed to constitute the final stage of RNA turnover. We have investigated the function of the mammalian oligoribonuclease REXO2 through a combination of biochemical, structural and animal model studies. We find that REXO2 is a specialised dinucleotide degrading enzyme that shows no preference between RNA and DNA dinucleotide substrates. This specialisation is explained by crystal structures of REXO2 bound to RNA or DNA substrates. REXO2 is an essential gene, while a heart and skeletal muscle-specific knockout mouse displays elevated dinucleotide levels and alterations in gene expression patterns indicative of aberrant dinucleotide-primed transcription initiation. We find that dinucleotides act as potent stimulators of mitochondrial transcription initiation in vitro, and conclude that efficient RNA turnover is required to maintain the promoter specificity of transcription in mammalian mitochondria.

CG-dinucleotide suppression enables antiviral defense targeting non-self RNA

Project description:Vertebrate genomes exhibit marked CG-suppression, that is lower than expected numbers of 5’-CG-3’ dinucleotides1. This feature is likely due to C-to-T mutations that have accumulated over hundreds of millions of years, driven by CG-specific DNA methyl transferases and spontaneous methyl-cytosine deamination. Remarkably, many RNA viruses of vertebrates that are not substrates for DNA methyl transferases mimic the CG-suppression of their hosts2-4. This striking property of viral genomes is unexplained4-6. In a synonymous mutagenesis experiment, we found that CG-suppression is essential for HIV-1 replication. The deleterious effect of CG dinucleotides on HIV-1 replication was cumulative, evident as cytoplasmic RNA depletion, and exerted by CG dinucleotides in both translated and non-translated exonic RNA sequences. A focused siRNA screen revealed that zinc finger antiviral protein (ZAP)7 inhibited virion production by cells infected with CG-enriched HIV-1. Crucially, HIV-1 mutants containing segments whose CG-content mimicked random sequence were defective in unmanipulated cells, but replicated normally in ZAP-deficient cells. Crosslinking-immunoprecipitation-sequencing assays demonstrated that ZAP binds directly and selectively to RNA sequences containing CG dinucleotides. These findings suggest that ZAP exploits host CG-suppression to discriminate non-self RNA. The dinucleotide composition of HIV-1, and perhaps other RNA viruses, appears to have adapted to evade this host defense.

The Evolutionarily Conserved AU-Dinucleotide at the 5’ End of U1 snRNA is Critical for the Biogenesis and Functionality of U1 snRNP

Project description:Splicing is initiated by a productive interaction of pre-mRNA and the U1 snRNP, which dictates the formation a short RNA duplex between the 5’ splice site of a pre-mRNA and the 5’ end of the U1 snRNA. A long-standing puzzle has been why the AU dincucleotide at the 5’-end of the U1 snRNA shows strict conservation, despite the absence of an apparent role in duplex formation. To explore this conundrum, we varied this AU dinucleotide into to all possible permutations and analyzed the resulting molecular, biochemical, and physiological consequences. This led to the findings that the AU dinucleotide governs the precision of transcription start site, the methylation status of the U1 snRNA 5’-cap, appropriate maturation of a functional U1 snRNP, and its subsequent utilization in the splicing pathway. Our data also provide an insight as to why the identity of the AU dinucleotide is strongly favored during evolution.

The interactome of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) with RNA-binding proteins

Project description:We explored the interactome of flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and the matrix of UV-immobilised FAD bound more than 3,000 proteins from SW-620 lysate. GO enrichment analysis showed that about 600 RNA-binding proteins were bound to FAD beads and, surprisingly, more than 40 proteins showed clear dose-dependent binding competition with nanomolar affinities indicating that their direct or indirect interaction with free FAD is both specific and strong. Among the few known consensus sequences for RNA-binding proteins, we selected the PUF motif 5'-UGUANAUA-3' to investigate whether FAD is binding the Pumilio homologs PUM1 and PUM2 in their RNA-binding pocket, as both these proteins showed dose-response behaviour in the FAD versus FAD-beads. Immobilisation of an oligomer containing the consensus sequence on NHS-activated Sepharose beads yielded PUM-beads that did enrich the Pumilio homologs. Oligomer vs FAD-beads and FAD vs PUM-beads together with the FAD vs FAD-beads dose-response competition indicated that the binding of FAD does not seem to influence the binding of the RNA. It is therefore most likely that FAD binding is allosteric for PUMs.

CG dinucleotides enhance promoter activity independent of DNA methylation

Project description:Most mammalian RNA Polymerase II initiation events occur at CpG islands, which are rich in CpGs and devoid of DNA methylation. Despite their relevance for gene regulation, it is unknown to what extent the CpG dinucleotide itself actually contributes to promoter activity. To address this question, we determined the transcriptional activity of a large number of chromosomally integrated promoter constructs and monitored binding of transcription factors assumed to play a role in CpG island activity. This revealed that CpG density significantly improves motif-based prediction of transcription factor binding. Our experiments also show that high CpG density alone is insufficient for transcriptional activity, yet results in increased transcriptional output when combined with particular transcription factor motifs. Yet, this CpG contribution to promoter activity is independent of DNA methyltransferase activity. Together this refines our understanding of mammalian promoter regulation as it shows that high CpG density within CpG islands directly contributes to an environment permissive for full transcriptional activity.

Decapping enzyme NUDT12 partners with BLMH for cytoplasmic surveillance of NAD-capped RNAs

Project description:RNA polymerase II transcripts receive a protective 5ʹ m7G cap early during transcription. An alternative cap can be acquired when RNA pol II initiation uses the redox cofactor nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to generate NAD-capped RNAs. The biology of mammalian NAD-RNAs, including its turnover and physiological roles are not completely understood. Here we identify NUDT12 as a cytosolic decapping enzyme for NAD-RNAs. Structural, biochemical and functional studies reveal how homodimerization modulates specificity of NUDT12 for NAD-RNAs as substrate. NUDT12 is localized within a few discrete cytoplasmic granules that are distinct from P-bodies. We identity Bleomycin hydrolase (BLMH) as a factor that associates with NUDT12 in a large ~600 kDa dodecamer complex, and we demonstrate that BLMH is required for correct localization of NUDT12 into these granules. This complex is functional in human cell cultures, as artificial tethering of BLMH to a reporter mRNA results in downregulation of reporter expression, similar to that seen with tethering of NUDT12. Analysis of mouse liver transcriptome from the Nudt12 knockout mouse reveals that a select set of RNAs are regulated, including a significant upregulation of circadian clock transcripts. Given that NAD biosynthesis is under circadian control, our study points to a physiological role for the cytosolic surveillance of NAD-RNAs.

Hepatitis C virus RNA is 5’ flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) capped

Project description:RNA viruses have developed elaborate strategies for 5’ capping and protection of their genomes. However, so far no 5’ RNA cap has been identified for Hepatitis C virus (HCV), which cause chronic infection, liver cirrhosis and cancer in humans4. Here, we demonstrate that the cellular metabolite flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) is used as noncanonical initiating nucleotide by the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase resulting in a 5’ FAD cap on the HCV RNA. FAD capping is completely conserved for the HCV replication intermediate negative RNA strand and partially for the positive RNA strand. The prototype strain J6/JFH1 RNA is FAD capped when isolated from the liver and serum of a human liver chimeric mouse model and in vitro the FAD capping frequency is ~75 %, which is the highest metabolite RNA capping frequency observed. Furthermore, we show that 5’ FAD capping protects RNA from cell-intrinsic innate immune recognition but has limited effect on HCV RNA stability. These results establish capping with cellular metabolites, such as FAD, as a novel viral RNA capping and immune evasion strategy, which potentially could be used by many viruses for protection of their intermediate RNA strands and thereby affect viral treatment outcomes and persistency.
