Initiation of a ZAKa-dependent Ribotoxic Stress Response by the Innate Immunity Endoribonuclease RNase L

ABSTRACT: RNase L is a regulated endoribonuclease in higher vertebrates that functions in antiviral innate immunity. Interferons induce OAS enzymes that sense double-stranded RNA of viral origin leading to synthesis of 2’,5’-oligoadenylate (2-5A) activators of RNase L. However, it is unknown precisely how RNase L modulates host transcriptome through its endoribonuclease activity. To isolate effects of RNase L from other effects of double-stranded RNA or virus, 2-5A was directly introduced into cells. Here we report that RNase L activation by 2-5A causes a ribotoxic stress response that requires the ribosome-associated MAP3K, ZAK. Subsequently, the stress-activated protein kinases (SAPK) JNK and p38 are phosphorylated. RNase L activation profoundly altered the transcriptome by widespread depletion of mRNAs associated with different cellular functions, but also by SAPK-dependent induction of inflammatory genes. Our findings show that 2-5A is a ribotoxic stressor that causes RNA damage through RNase L triggering a ZAK kinase cascade leading to proinflammatory signaling and apoptosis.

Heterozygous OAS1 Gain-of-Function Variants Cause a Polymorphic Autoinflammatory and Immunodeficiency Syndrome

Project description:Oligoadenylate synthase 1 (OAS1) is a type-1 interferon-inducible, intracellular double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) sensor that generates 2'-5'-oligoadenylate (2-5A) to activate RNaseL as a means of antiviral defense. We report four de novo heterozygous OAS1 variants in five patients. Variant OAS1 proteins show dsRNA-independent gain-of-function 2-5A synthetase activity that results in RNaseL-mediated RNA-cleavage, transcriptomic downregulation, and functional impairment and/or apoptosis of monocytes, iPSC-derived macrophages, and B-cells. This leads to a polymorphic syndrome of monocyte, macrophage, and B-cell deficiency characterized by autoinflammation, pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, and hypogammaglobulinemia. RNase-L-inhibition in vitro mitigates, and hematopoietic cell transplantation in vivo corrects the autoinflammatory and immunodeficiency phenotype.

Stalled ribosomes are signals for metabolic regulation by the ribotoxic stress response

Project description:Impairment of translation can lead to stalling and collision of ribosomes which constitute an activation platform for several ribosomal stress-surveillance pathways. Among these is the Ribotoxic Stress Response (RSR), where ribosomal sensing by the MAP3K ZAKa leads to activation of p38 and JNK kinases. Despite these insights, the physiological ramifications of ribosomal impairment and downstream RSR signaling remain elusive. Here we show that stalling of ribosomes is sufficient to activate ZAKa. In response to amino acid deprivation and full nutrient starvation, RSR impacts on the ensuing metabolic responses in cells, nematodes and mice. The RSR-regulated responses in these model systems include regulation of AMPK and mTOR signaling, survival under starvation conditions, stress hormone production and regulation of blood sugar control. In addition, ZAK-/- mice present with a lean phenotype. Our work highlights stalled ribosomes as metabolic signals and demonstrates a role for RSR signaling in metabolic regulation.

ROS-induced translation impairment underlies ZAK-mediated metabolic decline in obesity and aging

Project description:The ribotoxic stress response (RSR) denotes a signaling pathway in which the p38 and JNK-activating MAP3 kinase ZAK senses stalling and/or collision of ribosomes with unknown physiological implications. Here, we show that reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating agents robustly trigger translational impairment and ZAK activation. As a testament to the physiological importance of this signaling pathway, zebrafish larvae deficient for the ZAK kinase are protected from ROS-induced pathology and death. Furthermore, livers of mice fed a ROS-generating and obesogenic diet accrue ZAK-activating and antioxidant-reversed ribosomal stalls and collisions. Highlighting a role for the RSR in metabolic regulation, ZAK knockout (KO) mice are protected from developing insulin resistance and liver steatosis under these conditions. Finally, aged chow-fed ZAK KO mice do not display the normal hallmarks of metabolic aging. In sum, our work highlights ROS-induced translational impairment as a physiological activation signal for ZAK that underlies metabolic adaptation in obesity and aging.

Ribonuclease L and Metal-Ion-Independent Endoribonuclease Cleavage Sites in Host and Viral RNAs

Project description:We used 2', 3'-cyclic phosphate cDNA synthesis and Illumina sequencing to identify and quantify metal-ion-independent endoribonuclease cleavage sites in host and viral RNAs. To make cDNA libraries, we exploited the 2’, 3’-cyclic phosphate at the end of RNA fragments produced by RNase L and other metal-ion-independent endoribonucleases. Using Arabidopsis thaliana tRNA ligase, RNA fragments with 2’, 3’-cyclic phosphates were covalently attached to defined RNA linkers containing an 8-base long unique molecular identifier (UMI) sequence. Libraries prepared in this manner contain cDNA derived exclusively from RNA fragments with 2', 3'-cyclic phosphates. The UMI sequence allows for detailed quantitation. We optimized and validated 2’, 3’-cyclic phosphate cDNA synthesis and Illumina sequencing methods using viral RNAs cleaved with purified RNase L, viral RNAs cleaved with purified RNase A, and RNA from uninfected and poliovirus-infected HeLa cells.

ZAKα Recognizes Stalled Ribosomes through Partially Redundant Sensor Domains

Project description:Impairment of ribosome function activates the MAPKKK ZAK, leading to activation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases p38 and JNK and inflammatory signaling. The mechanistic basis for activation of this ribotoxic stress response (RSR) re-mains completely obscure. We show that the long isoform of ZAK (ZAKα) directly associates with ribosomes by inserting its flexible C terminus into the ribosomal intersubunit space. Here, ZAKα binds helix14 of 18S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). An adjacent domainin ZAKa also probes the ribosome, and together, these sensor domains are critically required for RSR activation after inhibition of both the E-site, the peptidyl transferase center (PTC), and ribotoxinaction. Finally, we show that ablation of the RSR response leads to organismal phenotypes and decreased lifespan in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans). Our findings yield mechanistic insight into how cells detect ribotoxic stress and provide experimental in vivo evidence for its physiological importance.

ZAK activation on colliding ribosomes triggers SAPK signaling pathways to regulate cell fate

Project description:Problems arising during translation of mRNAs lead to ribosome stalling and collisions with trailing ribosomes. These collisions are known to trigger a series of events including degradation of the stalled nascent polypeptide, decay of the problematic mRNAs, and ribosome rescue. However, the systemic cellular response of ribosome collision has not been explored. Here, we uncover a novel function for ribosome collisions in signal transduction. Using multiple translation elongation inhibitors and cellular stress conditions, we show that ribosome collisions activate both the SAPK (Stress Activated Protein Kinase) and GCN2-mediated cellular stress response pathways that lead to apoptosis and the integrated stress response (ISR), respectively. We further show that the MAPKKK ZAK functions as the sentinel for ribosome collisions, and ZAK is required for activation of both SAPKs p38/JNK and GCN2 signaling pathways. Selective ribosome profiling and biochemistry demonstrate that ZAK preferentially associates with the minimal unit of colliding ribosomes, the disome, inducing ZAK phosphorylation. While ZAK associates with elongating ribosomes under non-stressed conditions, activation of ZAK is specifically trigger by colliding ribosomes. Together, these results provide new insights into how perturbation of translational homeostasis, as read-out by colliding ribosomes, regulates cell fate.

In vivo cleavage map illuminates the central role of RNase E in coding and noncoding RNA pathways

Project description:Understanding RNA processing and turnover requires knowledge of cleavages by major endoribonucleases within a living cell. We have employed TIER-Seq (transiently inactivating an endoribonuclease followed by RNA-Seq) to profile cleavage products of the essential endoribonuclease RNase E in Salmonella enterica. A dominating cleavage signature is the location of a uridine two nucleotides downstream in a single-stranded segment, which we rationalize structurally as a key recognition determinant that may favor RNase E catalysis. Our results suggest a prominent biogenesis pathway for bacterial regulatory small RNAs, whereby RNase E acts together with the RNA chaperone Hfq to liberate stable 3’-fragments from various precursor RNAs. Recapitulating this process in vitro, Hfq guides RNase E cleavage of a representative small RNA precursor for interaction with a mRNA target. In vivo, the processing is required for target regulation. Our findings reveal a general maturation mechanism for a major class of post- transcriptional regulators.

The effect of Dicer knockdown on the microRNA transcriptional profile of 3.10 mTEC cell line.

Project description:Dicer, also known as endoribonuclease Dicer or helicase with RNase motif, cleaves double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and pre-microRNA (pre-miRNA) into short mature double-stranded RNA fragments called small interfering RNA and microRNA, respectively. MicroRNAs are potent post-transcriptional regulators in developmental switches, lineage commitment and gene expression regulation. To evaluate their post-transcriptional role in gene expression of Medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTECS) we knocked down Dicer transcript by means of siRNA transfection in a Mus musculus mTEC cell line (3.10 mTEC). The Agilent oligo microarrays were used to determine the large scale microRNA (miRNA) transcriptional profiles of control or Dicer-knockdown 3.10 mTECs.
