Sequencing of Argonaute-bound miRNA/mRNA hybrids reveals regulation of the unfolded protein response by microRNA-320a

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNA) are short non-coding RNAs widely implicated in development, gene regulation, and disease progression. Most miRNAs utilize the RNase III enzymes Drosha and Dicer for biogenesis in animals. One notable exception is the RNA polymerase II transcription start sites (TSS) miRNAs whose biogenesis requires Dicer but not Drosha. The functional importance of the TSS-miRNA biogenesis pathway has remained uncertain due to their unelucidated targetomes. To better understand the function of TSS-miRNAs, we applied a modified Crosslinking, Ligation, and Sequencing of Hybrids on Argonaute (Ago-qCLASH) to identify the targets for TSS-miRNAs in HCT116 colorectal cancer cells with or without Drosha knockout (KO). We observed that miR-320a hybrids dominate in TSS-miRNA hybrids identified by Ago-qCLASH. Targets for miR-320a are enriched in the eIF2 signaling pathway, a downstream component of the unfolded protein response. Consistently, in miR-320a mimic- and inhibitor- transfected cells, differentially expressed genes are enriched in the eIF2 signaling pathway. Within the Ago-qCLASH data, we identified the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone Calnexin as a direct miR-320a target, thus connecting miR-320a to the unfolded protein response. During ER stress, but not amino acid deprivation, miR-320a up-regulates ATF4, a critical transcription factor for resolving ER stress. Our study helps to elucidate the targetome of the TSS-miRNAs in colorectal cancer cells and establishes miR-320a as a regulator of unfolded protein response.

Re-evaluation of the roles of DROSHA, Exportin 5, and DICER in microRNA biogenesis

Project description:Biogenesis of canonical microRNAs (miRNAs) involves multiple steps: nuclear processing of primary miRNA (pri-miRNA) by DROSHA, nuclear export of precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) by Exportin 5 (XPO5), and cytoplasmic processing of pre-miRNA by DICER. To gain a deeper understanding of the contribution of each of these maturation steps, we deleted DROSHA, XPO5, and DICER in the same human cell line, and analyzed their effects on miRNA biogenesis. Canonical miRNA production was completely abolished in DROSHA-deleted cells while we detected a few DROSHA-independent miRNAs including three previously unidentified noncanonical miRNAs (miR-7706, miR-3615, and miR-1254). In contrast to DROSHA knockout, many canonical miRNAs were still detected without DICER albeit at markedly reduced levels. In the absence of DICER, pre-miRNAs are loaded directly onto AGO and trimmed at the 3â² end, yielding miRNAs from the 5â² strand (5p miRNAs). Interestingly, in XPO5 knockout cells, most miRNAs are affected only modestly, suggesting that XPO5 is necessary but not critical for miRNA maturation. Our study demonstrates an essential role of DROSHA and an important contribution of DICER in the canonical miRNA pathway, and reveals that the function of XPO5 can be complemented by alternative mechanisms. Thus, this study allows us to understand differential contributions of key biogenesis factors, and provides with valuable resources for miRNA research. Two independent sequencing experiments (set 1 and set 2, respectively) were performed using 9 samples.

Argonaute-bound small RNAs from promoter-proximal RNA Polymerase II

Project description:Argonaute (Ago) proteins mediate post-transcriptional gene repression by binding guide microRNAs (miRNAs) to regulate targeted RNAs. To confidently assess Agobound small RNAs, we adapted a mouse embryonic stem cell system to express a single inducible epitope-tagged Ago protein. Here, we report the small RNA profile of Agodeficient cells and determine Ago-dependent stability is a common feature of mammalian miRNAs. Considering both in vivo Ago-dependence for stability and Ago2 binding as defined by immunopurification, we have identified a novel class of non-canonical miRNAs derived from protein-coding gene promoters, which we name transcriptional start site miRNAs (TSS-miRNAs). A subset of promoter-proximal RNA polymerase II complexes produce hairpin RNAs that are processed in a DGCR8/Drosha-independent, but Dicer-dependent manner. TSS-miRNA activity is detectable endogenously, upon transfection of a mimic or by mRNA overexpression. Finally, we present evidence of differential expression and conservation in humans, suggesting important roles in gene regulation.

miRNAs associated with the different human Argonaute proteins

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that function in literally all cellular processes. miRNAs interact with Argonaute (Ago) proteins and guide them to specific target sites located in the 3’ untranslated region (UTR) of target mRNAs leading to translational repression and deadenylation-induced mRNA degradation. Most miRNAs are processed from hairpin-structured precursors by the consecutive action of the RNase III enzymes Drosha and Dicer. However, processing of miR-451 is Dicer-independent and cleavage is mediated by the endonuclease Ago2. Here we have characterized miR-451 sequence and structure requirements for processing as well as sorting of miRNAs into different Ago proteins. Pre-miR-451 appears to be optimized for Ago2 cleavage and changes result in reduced processing. In addition, we show that the mature miR-451 only associates with Ago2 suggesting that mature miRNAs are not exchanged between different members of the Ago protein family. Based on cloning and deep sequencing of endogenous miRNAs associated with Ago1-3, we do not find evidence for miRNA sorting in human cells. However, Ago identity appears to influence the length of some miRNAs, while others remain unaffected. Examination of miRNAs associated with endogenous human Ago1-4 in HeLa cells

A Novel role for GSK3B as a modulator of Drosha Microprocessor activity and microRNA biogenesis

Project description:Regulation of microRNA (miR) biogenesis is complex and stringently controlled. Here we identify the kinase GSK3B as an important modulator of global miR biogenesis at microprocessor level. Repression of GSK3B activity reduces Drosha activity towards pri-miRs, leading to accumulation of unprocessed pri-miRs and reduction of pre-miRs and mature miRs without altering levels or cellular localisationof miR biogenesisproteins. Conversly, GSK3B activation increases Drosha activityand mature miR accumulation. GSK3B achieves this through promoting Drosha:cofactor and Drosha:pri-miR interactions: it binds to DGCR8 and p72 in the Microprocessor, an effect dependent of RNA. Indeed GSK3B itself can immunoprecipitate pri-miRs, suggesting possible RNA binding capacity. Kinase assays identify the mechanism for GSK3B-enhansed Drosha activity, which requires GSK3B nuclear localisation, as phosphorylation of Drosha at s300 and/or s302 confirmed by enhanced Drosha activity and association with cofactors, and increased abundance of mature microRNAs in the presence of phospho-mimetic Drosha. Functional implicatons of GSK3B-enhanced miR biogenesis are illustrated by increased levels of GSK3B-upregulatd miR targets following GSK3B inhibition. These data, the first link GSK3B with the miR cascade in humans, hilight a novel pro-biogenesis role for GSK3B in increasing miR biogenesis as a component of the Microprocessor complex with wide ranging consiquences.

Microarray profiling reveals broad and differential effects of RBM3 on miRNA expression.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of short, noncoding RNAs that regulate translation of mRNAs by mechanisms involving the binding of complementary sequences. The influence of miRNAs on the proteome and cellular events is extensive as they regulate an estimated 60% of the transcriptome and play key roles in differentiation, plasticity, circadian rhythm, immunity, and disease. The post-transcriptional biogenesis of most miRNAs involves a sequential cleavage process mediated by RNase III family enzymes. Primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) are first cleaved by Drosha in the nucleus to yield ~70nt hairpin precursors (pre-miRNAs). These intermediates are transported to the cytoplasm where ~22mer dsRNAs are excised by Dicer. Typically, one strand of the dsRNAs is inserted as a mature miRNA into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which contains members of the Argonaute (Ago) protein family that contribute to translational regulation. Recent studies indicate that some RNA-binding proteins (RNA-BPs) can regulate discrete processing steps, differentially blocking or promoting the formation of specific miRNAs to control cellular proliferation and differentiation. Elegant examples of this mechanism include the attenuation of let-7 biogenesis in embryonic stem cells by the pluripotency factor LIN28, and the selective enhancement of miR-18a biogenesis from a polycistronic transcript by hnRNPA1. Mature miRNA expression profiles in B104 cells were measured after siRNA-mediated knockdown of RBM3 in the B104 neuronal cell line. Mock treated B104 cells were used as a control. Experiments were replicated in duplicates.

PARN mediates 3'-end trimming of Argonaute-cleaved precursor microRNAs

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are typically generated as ~22-nucleotide double-stranded RNAs via processing of precursor hairpins by the RNase III enzyme Dicer, after which they are loaded into Argonaute (Ago) proteins to form RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). However, the biogenesis of miR-451, an erythropoietic miRNA conserved in vertebrates, does not require Dicer processing. Instead, the short pre-miR-451 precursor hairpin is directly loaded into Ago, followed by cleavage of the 3' arm and trimming of the 3' end to the mature length by PARN. Here we show the in vivo activity of miR-430 Ago2-hairpin, a canonical microRNA engineered to fit the structure of miR-451 and hence become Ago2-dependent. Moreover, we test a modified miR-430 Ago2-haipin with 3x phoshorothioate bonds that impairs trimmng. Surprisingly, our data show that trimming of Ago-cleaved pre-miRNAs is not essential for target silencing, indicating that RISC is functional with miRNAs longer than 22-nucleotides. Rescue of MZdicer zebrafish mutant with the injection of trimmable and nontrimmable miR-430 Ago2 hairpins: Transcriptome of wild type, MZdicer mutant, and MZdicer mutant micoinjected with miR-430 duplex, miR-430 (Ago2-haripin), miR-430 (Ago2-haripin 3xPhosphorothioate)

Drosha-dependent microRNAs modulate FUS-mediated neurodegeneration in vivo

Project description:Mutations in Fused in Sarcoma (FUS) gene cause the familial and progressive form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). FUS is a nuclear RNA-binding protein involved in RNA processing and the biogenesis of a specific set of microRNAs. Here we report that Drosha and two previously uncharacterized Drosha-dependent miRNAs are strong modulators of FUS expression and prevent the cytoplasmic segregation of insoluble mutant FUS in vivo. We demonstrate that depletion of Drosha mitigates FUS-mediated degeneration, survival, and motor defects in Drosophila. Mutant FUS strongly interacts with Drosha and causes its cytoplasmic mis-localization into the insoluble FUS inclusions. Reduction in Drosha levels increases the solubility of mutant FUS. Interestingly, we found two Drosha dependent microRNAs, miR-378i and miR-6832-5p, which differentially regulate the expression, solubility, and cytoplasmic aggregation of mutant FUS in iPSC neurons and mammalian cells. More importantly, we report different modes of action of these miRNAs against mutant FUS. Whereas miR-378i may regulate mutant FUS inclusions by preventing G3BP-mediated stress granule formation, miR-6832-5p may affect FUS expression via other proteins or pathways. Overall, our research reveals a possible association between ALS-linked FUS mutations and the Drosha-dependent miRNA regulatory circuit, as well as a useful perspective on potential ALS treatment via microRNAs.
