CDE-1 suppresses the production of risiRNA by coupling polyuridylation and degradation of 26S rRNA

ABSTRACT: Antisense ribosomal siRNAs (risiRNAs) downregulate pre-rRNAs through the nuclear RNAi pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans. However, the biogenesis and regulation of risiRNAs remain obscure. Previously, we showed that 26S rRNAs are uridylated at the 3'-ends by an unknown terminal polyuridylation polymerase before the rRNAs are degraded by a 3' to 5' exoribonuclease SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2). There are three polyuridylation polymerases, CDE-1, PUP-2, and PUP-3, in C. elegans. Here, we found that CDE-1 is specifically involved in suppressing risiRNA production. CDE-1 localizes to perinuclear granules in the germline and uridylates both Argonaute-associated 22G-RNAs and 26S rRNAs at the 3'-ends. Immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry (IP-MS) revealed that CDE-1 interacts with SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2). Consistent with those results, both CDE-1 and SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2) are required for the inheritance of RNAi. Therefore, this work identified a rRNA surveillance machinery of rRNAs that couples terminal polyuridylation and degradation.

CDE-1 suppresses the production of risiRNA by coupling polyuridylation and degradation of rRNA

Project description:Background: Modification of RNAs, particularly at the terminals, is critical for various essential cell processes; for example, uridylation is implicated in tumorigenesis, proliferation, stem cell maintenance, and immune defense against viruses and retrotransposons. Ribosomal RNAs can be regulated by antisense ribosomal siRNAs (risiRNAs), which downregulate pre-rRNAs through the nuclear RNAi pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans. However, the biogenesis and regulation of risiRNAs remain obscure. Previously, we showed that 26S rRNAs are uridylated at the 3'-ends by an unknown terminal polyuridylation polymerase before the rRNAs are degraded by a 3’ to 5’ exoribonuclease SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2).Results: Here, we found that CDE-1, one of the three C.elegans polyuridylation polymerases (PUPs), is specifically involved in suppressing risiRNA production. CDE-1 localizes to perinuclear granules in the germline and uridylates Argonaute-associated 22G-RNAs, 26S and 5.8S rRNAs at the 3’-ends. Immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry (IP-MS) revealed that CDE-1 interacts with SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2). Consistent with these results, both CDE-1 and SUSI-1(ceDIS3L2) are required for the inheritance of RNAi.Conclusions: This work identified a rRNA surveillance machinery of rRNAs that couples terminal polyuridylation and degradation.

RNA-dependent RNA polymerases-synthesized antisense ribosomal siRNAs silence pre-rRNA via the nuclear RNAi pathway in C. elegans

Project description:The biogenesis of rRNA drives cell growth and proliferation, but mechanisms that modulate rRNA production remain poorly understood. We have conducted a genetic screen to look for factors that negatively regulate endo-siRNA generation in C. elegans, and identified the suppressor of siRNA (susi)-1and a new class of triphosphorylated antisense ribosomal siRNAs (risiRNAs). In susi-1 mutant, we observed an accumulation of siRNA sequences complementary to 18S and 26S rRNAs. risiRNAs are similar to 22G-RNA, as they are 22 nt in length and have a triphosphorylated guanidine at their 5'-end. The generation of risiRNAs depends on RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, but not the ERI/Dicer complex. risiRNAs act through the nuclear RNAi pathway and guide the Argonaute protein NRDE-3 to the nucleoli, which leads to a downregulation of pre-rRNA expression. Interestingly, low temperature and ultraviolet irradiation also induces the accumulation of risiRNA, suggesting potential regulatory functions. Cloned SUSI-1 shows homology to Dis3-like exonuclease 2 (Dis3L2) in other organisms, a gene identified as a key exonuclease involved in the 3' to 5' degradation of oligouridylated RNAs. We observed an accumulation of 3'-tail oligouridylated 26S rRNA in susi-1 mutant and in low temperature-treated animals. Consistently, the injection of 3'-tail oligouridylated 26S rRNA elicited a nuclear accumulation of NRDE-3. Our findings thus establish SUSI-1(ceDis3L2) as a suppressor of endo-siRNA generation, identify a novel class of risiRNAs that suppress pre-rRNA expression, and suggest a potential disease mechanism.

Erroneous ribosomal RNAs promote the generation of antisense ribosomal siRNA

Project description:Ribosome biogenesis is a multi-step process, during which mistakes could take place at any step of pre-rRNA processing, modification, and assembly of ribosomes. Misprocessed rRNAs are usually detected and degraded by surveillance machineries. Recently, we identified a class of antisense ribosomal siRNAs (risiRNAs) that downregulate pre-rRNAs through the nuclear RNAi pathway. To further understand the biological roles of risiRNA, we conducted both forward and reverse genetic screenings to search for more susi mutants. We isolated a number of genes that are broadly conserved from yeast to humans and are involved in pre-rRNA modification and processing. Among them, SUSI-2(ceRRP8) is homologous to human RRP8 and engages in m1A methylation of 26S rRNA. C27F2.4(ceBUD23) is a m7G methyltransferase of 18S rRNA. E02H1.1(ceDIMT1L) is a predicted m6(2)Am6(2)A methyltransferase of 18S rRNA . Mutation of these genes led to modification deficiency of rRNAs and elicited accumulation of risiRNAs, which further triggered the cytoplasm to nuclear and nucleolar translocation of an Argonaute protein NRDE-3. The processing deficiency of rRNAs resulted in the accumulation of risiRNAs as well. We isolated SUSI-3(RIOK-1) which is similar to human RIOK1 that cleaves 20S to 18S rRNA. We further utilized RNAi and CRISPR/Cas9 technologies to perform candidate-based reverse genetic screening and identified additional pre-rRNA processing factors that suppressed risiRNA production. Therefore, we concluded that erroneous rRNAs can trigger risiRNA generation and subsequently turn on the nuclear RNAi-mediated gene silencing pathway to inhibit pre-rRNA expression, which may provide a quality control mechanism to maintain the homeostasis of rRNAs.

Antisense ribosomal siRNAs inhibit RNA polymerase I-directed transcription in C. elegans

Project description:Eukaryotic cells express a wide variety of endogenous small regulatory RNAs that function in the nucleus. We previously found that erroneous rRNAs induce the generation of antisense ribosomal siRNAs (risiRNAs) which silence the expression of rRNAs via the nuclear RNAi defective (Nrde) pathway. To further understand the biological roles and mechanisms of this class of small regulatory RNAs, we conducted forward genetic screening to identify factors involved in risiRNA generation in Caenorhabditis elegans. We found that risiRNAs accumulated in the RNA exosome mutants. risiRNAs directed a NRDE-dependent silencing of pre-rRNAs in the nucleolus. In the presence of risiRNAs, NRDE-2 accumulated in the nucleolus and colocalized with RNA polymerase I. risiRNAs inhibited the transcription elongation of RNA polymerase I by decreasing RNAP I occupancy downstream of the RNAi-targeted site. Meanwhile, exosomes mislocalized from the nucleolus to nucleoplasm in suppressor of siRNA (susi) mutants, in which erroneous rRNAs accumulated. These results established a novel model of rRNA surveillance by combining ribonuclease-mediated RNA degradation with small RNA-directed nucleolar RNAi system.

The RNAi Inheritance Machinery of Caenorhabditis elegans

Project description:Gene silencing mediated by dsRNA (RNAi) can persist for multiple generations in C. elegans (termed RNAi inheritance). Here we describe the results of a forward genetic screen in C. elegans that has identified six factors required for RNAi inheritance: GLH-1/VASA, PUP-1/CDE-1, MORC-1, SET-32, and two novel nematode-specific factors that we term here (heritable RNAi defective) HRDE-2 and HRDE-4. The new RNAi inheritance factors exhibit mortal germline (Mrt) phenotypes, which we show is likely caused by epigenetic deregulation in germ cells. We also show that HRDE-2 contributes to RNAi inheritance by facilitating the binding of small RNAs to the inheritance Argonaute (Ago) HRDE-1. Together, our results identify additional components of the RNAi inheritance machinery whose sequence conservation provides insights into the molecular mechanism of RNAi inheritance, further our understanding of how the RNAi inheritance machinery promotes germline immortality, and show that HRDE-2 couples the inheritance Ago HRDE-1 with the small RNAs it needs to direct RNAi inheritance and germline immortality.

A cytoplasmic Argonaute protein promotes the inheritance of RNAi

Project description:RNAi-elicited gene silencing is heritable and can persist for multiple generations after its initial induction in C. elegans. However, the mechanism by which parental-acquired trait-specific information from RNAi is inherited by the progenies is not fully understood. Here, we identified a cytoplasmic Argonaute protein, WAGO-4, necessary for the inheritance of RNAi. WAGO-4 exhibits asymmetrical translocation to the germline during early embryogenesis, accumulates at the perinuclear foci in the germline, and is required for the inheritance of exogenous RNAi targeting both germline- and soma-expressed genes. WAGO-4 binds to 22G-RNA and its mRNA targets. Interestingly, WAGO-4-associated endogenous 22G-RNA targets the same cohort of germline genes as CSR-1 and similarly contains untemplated addition of uracil at the 3' ends. The poly(U) polymerase CDE-1 is required for the untemplated polyuridylation of WAGO-4-associated 22G-RNAs and inheritance of RNAi. Therefore, we conclude that the cytoplasmic Argonaute protein WAGO-4 also promotes the inheritance of RNAi in addition to the nuclear RNAi pathway.
