A scalable and cost-efficient rRNA depletion approach to enrich RNAs for molecular biology investigations

ABSTRACT: Transcriptomics analyses play pivotal roles in understanding the complex regulatory networks that govern cellular processes. The abundance of rRNAs, which account for 80-90% of total RNA in eukaryotes, limits the detection and investigation of other transcripts. While mRNAs and long non-coding RNAs have polyA(+) tails that are often used for positive selection, investigations of polyA(-) RNAs, such as circular RNAs, histone mRNAs, and small RNAs, typically require the removal of the abundant rRNAs for enrichment. Current approaches to deplete rRNAs for downstream molecular biology investigations are hampered by restrictive RNA input masses and high cost. To address these challenges, we developed rRNA Removal by RNase H (rRRR), a method to efficiently deplete rRNA from a wide range of human, mouse, and rat RNA inputs and qualities at a cost 10-20-fold cheaper than other approaches. We employed probe-based hybridization and enzymatic digestion to selectively target and remove rRNA molecules while preserving the integrity of non-rRNA transcripts. Comparison between rRRR to two commercially available approaches found that they had similar efficiencies at depleting rRNAs and comparable off-target effects. Our developed method provides researchers with a valuable tool for investigating gene expression and regulatory mechanisms across a wide range of biological systems at an affordable price that increases the accessibility for researchers to enter the field, ultimately advancing our understanding of cellular processes.

Optimized design of antisense oligomers for targeted rRNA depletion

Project description:RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) has become a standard method for quantifying gene expression transcriptome-wide. Due to the extremely high proportion of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in total RNA, sequencing libraries usually incorporate messenger RNA (mRNA) enrichment. Although polyadenylate (poly(A)) tail selection is widely used, many applications require alternate approaches such as rRNA depletion. Recently, selective rRNA digestion, using RNaseH and antisense DNA oligomers that tile the length of target RNAs, has emerged as an easy, cost-effective alternative to commercial rRNA depletion kits. Here, we present a streamlined RNaseH-mediated rRNA depletion method that uses shorter antisense oligos that only sparsely tile the target RNA, in a digestion reaction of only 5 minutes. We wrote a Web tool, Oligo-ASST, that simplifies oligo design to favor target regions with optimal thermodynamic properties, and additionally allows users to design common oligo pools that can simultaneously target divergent RNAs in their regions of higher sequence similarity. We demonstrate the efficacy of these oligos by building rRNA-depleted sequencing libraries for Xenopus laevis as well as zebrafish, which expresses two distinct versions of the 28S, 18S, 5.8S, and 5S rRNAs during embryogenesis. These libraries efficiently deplete rRNA to <5% of total reads, on par with poly(A) selection, and also reveal expression of many non-adenylated RNA species. Oligo-ASST is freely available at https://mtleelab.pitt.edu/oligo to design antisense oligos for any taxon or to target any abundant RNA for depletion.

Exonuclease Requirements for Mammalian Ribosomal RNA Biogenesis and Surveillance

Project description:Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) biogenesis are multistep processes requiring the activity of several nuclear and cytoplasmic exonucleases. The exact processing steps for mammalian 5.8S rRNA remains obscure. Here, using loss-of-function approaches in mouse embryonic stem cells and deep sequencing of rRNA intermediates, we investigate at nucleotide resolution the requirements of exonucleases known to be involved in 5.8S maturation, and explore the role of the Perlman syndrome-associated 3’-5’ exonuclease Dis3l2 in rRNA processing. We expand the repertoire of Dis3l2 targets to three 5.8S, 5S, and 28S rRNAs. We uncover a novel cytoplasmic intermediate that we name ‘7SB’ rRNA that is generated through sequential processing by distinct exosome complexes. 7SB rRNA can be oligouridylated by TUT4/7 and subsequently processed by Dis3l2 and Eri1. Moreover, exosome depletion triggers Dis3l2-mediated decay (DMD) as a surveillance pathway for rRNAs. Our data identify previously unknown 5.8S rRNA processing steps and provide nucleotide level insight into the exonuclease requirements for mammalian rRNA processing.

An optimized ribodepletion approach for C. elegans RNA-sequencing libraries

Project description:Advances over the past decade have allowed for increasingly fine-grained labeling and isolation of rare cell samples for transcriptomic analysis, providing new insights into cell function and gene regulation. These samples often contain very little RNA for sequencing, and so have required new techniques to capture and amplify transcripts of interest. However, as new tools are developed, they are often optimized for mammalian samples. Thus, it is unclear for invertebrate samples what the best practices are for library preparation, and how differences in library preparation approaches affect final results. Here we compared two commercially available techniques: a commonly used polyA selection approach, and a newly developed ribodepletion approach, for which we designed a unique C. elegans-specific probe set. We performed a detailed comparison on multiple RNA samples and developed novel analysis methods to compare the results. Our analysis identifies clear strengths and weaknesses for both of these approaches in building libraries from low abundance RNA samples in C. elegans. We find that the polyA approach is superior in both percent reads mapped and rRNA removal, while the ribodepletion approach provides better detection for long and noncoding RNAs along with increased certainty of calling expression for low abundance transcripts. These insights will help guide researchers in designing future experiments in transcriptomics and provide a model for comparative analysis of library-building techniques.

Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) were depleted by using the Ribo-Zero rRNA Removal Kit (Illumina). Libraries were sequenced on a HiSEQ2500 machine. Five samples were re-sequenced using paired-end 50 base-pair libraries due to the smaller insert sizes.

Effect of rRNA methylation defect on protein composition of human ribosomes

Project description:Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are main effectors of mRNA decoding, peptide-bond formation and ribosome dynamics during translation. Ribose 2'-O-methylation is the most abundant rRNA chemical modification, and display a complex pattern in rRNA. We globally challenged rRNA 2'-O-Me by inhibiting the rRNA methyl-transferase fibrillarin (FBL) in human cells. Since FBL participates in rRNA processing, we wonder if FBL knockdown could alter the assembly of ribosomes.

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.
