Conditional Hfq association with small non-coding RNAs in Pseudomonas aeruginosa revealed through comparative UV crosslinking immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing [RNA-Seq]

ABSTRACT: Bacterial small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) play post-transcriptional regulatory roles in cellular responses to changing environmental cues and in adaptation to harsh conditions. Generally, the RNA-binding protein Hfq helps sRNAs associate with target mRNAs to modulate their translation and to modify global RNA pools depending on physiological state. Here, a combination of in vivo UV crosslinking immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (CLIP-seq) and total RNA-seq showed that Hfq interacts with different regions of the P. aeruginosa transcriptome under planktonic versus biofilm conditions. In the present approach, P. aeruginosa Hfq preferentially interacted with repeats of the AAN triplet motif at mRNA 5’ UTRs and sRNAs, and U-rich sequences at rho-independent terminators. Further transcriptome analysis suggested that sRNAs association with Hfq is primarily a function of their expression levels, strongly supporting that the pool of Hfq-associated RNAs is equilibrated by RNA concentration-driven cycling on and off Hfq. Overall, our combinatorial CLIP-seq and total RNA-seq approach highlights conditional sRNA associations with Hfq as a novel aspect of post-transcriptional regulation in P. aeruginosa.

Global RNA recognition patterns of post‐transcriptional regulators Hfq and CsrA revealed by UV crosslinking in vivo

Project description:The molecular roles of many RNA‐binding proteins in bacterial post‐transcriptional gene regulation are not well understood. Approaches combining in vivo UV crosslinking with RNA deep sequencing (CLIP‐seq) have begun to revolutionize the transcriptome‐wide mapping of eukaryotic RNA‐binding protein target sites. We have applied CLIP‐seq to chart the target landscape of two major bacterial post‐transcriptional regulators, Hfq and CsrA, in the model pathogen Salmonella Typhimurium. By detecting binding sites at single‐nucleotide resolution, we identify RNA preferences and structural constraints of Hfq and CsrA during their interactions with hundreds of cellular transcripts. This reveals 3′‐located Rho‐independent terminators as a universal motif involved in Hfq–RNA interactions. Additionally, Hfq preferentially binds 5′ to sRNA‐target sites in mRNAs, and 3′ to seed sequences in sRNAs, reflecting a simple logic in how Hfq facilitates sRNA–mRNA interactions. Importantly, global knowledge of Hfq sites significantly improves sRNA‐target predictions. CsrA binds AUGGA sequences in apical loops and targets many Salmonella virulence mRNAs. Overall, our generic CLIP‐seq approach will bring new insights into post‐transcriptional gene regulation by RNA‐binding proteins in diverse bacterial species.

Implementation of PAR-CLIP to characterize RNA-protein interactions in prokaryotes at nucleotide resolution

Project description:The identification of RNAs that are recognized by RNA-binding proteins (RNA-BPs) using techniques such as Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation (CLIP) has revolutionized the genome-wide discovery of RNA-BP RNA targets. Among the different versions of CLIP that have been developed, the use of photoactivable nucleoside analogs has resulted in high efficiency photoactivable ribonucleoside-enhanced CLIP (PAR-CLIP) in vivo. Nonetheless, PAR-CLIP has not yet been applied in prokaryotes. To determine if PAR-CLIP can be used in prokaryotes, we determined suitable conditions for the incorporation of 4-thiouridine (4SU), a photoactivable nucleoside, into E. coli RNA and for the isolation of RNA crosslinked to RNA-BPs of interest. Applying this technique to Hfq, a well-characterized regulator of small RNA (sRNA)-messenger RNA (mRNA) interactions, we showed that PAR-CLIP identified most of the known sRNA targets of Hfq, as well as functionally relevant sites of Hfq-mRNA interactions at nucleotide resolution. Based on our findings, PAR-CLIP represents an improved method to identify both the RNAs and the specific regulatory sites that are recognized by RNA-BPs in prokaryotes.

PhrS pulse expression RNA-seq

Project description:A key challenge for understanding the role(s) played by short, non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) in bacteria is identifying the mRNA targets regulated by the sRNAs. Because the Hfq protein mediates the interactions between many sRNAs and the corresponding target mRNAs, one apporach to identify the mRNA targets of sRNAs is to capture sRNA:mRNA interactions occuring on Hfq by exposing cells to UV-irradiation, which forms cross-links between nucleic acids and proteins. We subjected cells of P. aeruginosa strain PAO1 and a derivative of PAO1 harboring a C-terminal VSV-G epitope on Hfq to UV-irradiation, immune-precipitated the Hfq-RNA complexes, ligated neighboring RNA molecules together with RNA Ligase, and then purififed the resulting RNAs. These RNAs were converted into cDNA libraries and sequenced using the Illumina NextSeq platform and then subjected to RIL-seq analysis pipeline (version 0.78) to identify chimeric RNA molecules. We also performed RNA-seq for PAO1 ∆phrS cells harboring an empty vector (pEV) or a vector expressing PhrS (pPhrS).

Hfq Globally Binds and Destabilizes sRNAs and mRNAs in Yersinia pestis

Project description:Hfq is a ubiquitous Sm-like RNA-binding protein in bacteria involved in physiological fitness and pathogenesis, while its in vivo binding nature remains elusive. Here we reported genome-wide Hfq-bound RNAs in Yersinia pestis, a causative agent of plague, by using cross-linking immunoprecipitation coupled with deep sequencing (CLIP-seq) approach. We show that the Hfq binding density is enriched in more than 80% mRNAs of Y. pestis and that Hfq also globally binds noncoding small RNAs (sRNAs) encoded by the intergenic, antisense, and 3′ regions of mRNAs. An Hfq U-rich stretch is highly enriched in sRNAs, while motifs partially complementary to AGAAUAA and GGGGAUUA are enriched in both mRNAs and sRNAs. Hfq-binding motifs are enriched at both terminal sites and in the gene body of mRNAs. Surprisingly, a large fraction of the sRNA and mRNA regions bound by Hfq and those downstream are destabilized, likely via a 5′P-activated RNase E degradation pathway, which is consistent with a model in which Hfq facilitates sRNA-mRNA base pairing and the coupled degradation in Y. pestis. These results together have presented a high-quality Hfq-RNA interaction map in Y. pestis, which should be important for further deciphering the regulatory role of Hfq-sRNAs in Y. pestis.

Functional characterization of the RNA chaperone Hfq in opportunistic human pathogen Stenotrophomonas maltophilia

Project description:Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an important opportunistic pathogen affecting primarily hospitalized and immuno-compromised hosts. We constructed an hfq deletion mutant (Delta-hfq) of S. maltophilia, and compared the behaviour of wild-type and Delta-hfq S. maltophilia cells in a variety of assays. Differential RNA sequencing analysis (dRNA-seq) of RNA isolated from S. maltophilia wild-type and Delta-hfq strains showed that Hfq regulates expression of genes encoding flagellar and fimbrial components, transmembrane proteins, as well as enzymes involved in different metabolic pathways. Moreover, we analysed expression of several sRNAs identified by dRNA-seq in wild-type. The accumulation of two sRNAs was strongly reduced in the absence of Hfq.

RNA-sequencing data from Pseudomonas putida KT2440 wild-type and Δhfq mutant

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.
