An Improved SNAP-ADAR Tool Enables Efficient RNA Base Editing to Interfere with Post-translational Protein Modification

ABSTRACT: RNA base editing applies endogenous or engineered adenosine deaminases to introduce adenosine-to-inosine changes into a target RNA in a highly programmable manner. Recently, notable success was achieved for the repair of disease-causing guanosine-to-adenosine mutations by means of RNA base editing. Here, we propose that RNA base editing could be broadly applied to perturb protein function by removal of regulatory sites of post-translational modification (PTM), like phosphorylation and/or acetylation sites. We demonstrate the feasibility of PTM interference (PTMi) on more than 70 PTM sites in various signaling proteins and identify key determinants for high editing efficiency and potent down-stream effects. Specifically, we demonstrate both negative and positive regulation of the JAK/STAT pathway by PTMi. To identify potent regulatory sites for PTMi, we applied an improved version of the SNAP-ADAR tool, which achieved high editing efficiency over a broad codon scope with tight control of bystander editing. The transient nature of RNA base editing enables the fast, dose-dependent (thus partial) and reversible manipulation of PTM sites, which is a key advantage over DNA editing approaches, where genetic compensation or lethality can conceal a phenotype. In summary, PTM interference might become a valuable field of application of RNA base editing in basic biology and medicine.

Efficient and precise editing of endogenous transcripts with SNAP-tagged ADARs

Project description:Molecular tools to target RNA site‐specifically allow recoding of RNA information and processing. SNAP‐tagged deaminases, guided by a chemically stabilized guideRNA, enable the simultaneous editing of targeted adenosine to inosine in several endogenous transcripts, with high efficiency (up to 90%), high potency, sufficient duration, and high precision. We applied SNAP‐ADARs for the efficient and concurrent editing of two disease‐relevant signaling transcripts, KRAS and STAT1. We also show improved performance compared to the recently described Cas13b-ADAR.

Programmable RNA base editing with a single engineered protein

Project description:Programmable base editing of RNA enables rewriting the genetic codes on specific sites. Current tools for specific RNA editing dependent on the assembly or recruitment of the guide RNA into an RNA/protein complex, which may cause delivery barrier and low editing efficiency. Here we report a new set of tools, RNA editing with individual RNA-binding enzyme (REWIRE), to perform precise base editing with a single engineered protein. The REWIRE system contains a human-originated programmable RNA-binding domain (PUF domain) to specifically recognize target sequence and different deaminase domains to achieve A-to-I or C-to-U editing. By utilizing this system, we have achieved editing efficiencies up to 80% in A-to-I editing and 65% in C-to-U editing, with a few non-specific editing sites in the targeted region and a low level off-target effect globally. We applied the REWIREs to correct disease-associated mutations and modify mitochondrial RNAs, and further optimized the REWIREs to improve the editing efficiency and minimize off-target effects. As a single-component base editing system originated from human proteins, REWIRE presents a precise and efficient RNA-editing platform with broad applicability in basic research and gene therapy.

RNA-Seq of head tissue from Drosophila melanogaster Wild Type and Adar5G1dAdar-/- mutant

Project description:Purpose: Validation of Drosophila A-to-I editing sites Methods: We collected heads of 5 day old male dAdar-/- mutant (y, Adar5G1, w)26 and wild type (w1118) flies. Poly(A)+ RNA was used to prepare RNA-seq libraries which were subsequently sequenced single-end by an Illumina GAII Results:We builded a framework to identify RNA editing events using RNA-seq data alone in Drosophila. To validate whether the identified A-to-G sites were bona fide A-to-I editing events, we performed RNA-seq for the D.melanogaster wild-type strain (w1118) and for the Adar5G1 null mutant that eliminates RNA editing. We found that our method achieved high accuracy; 98.2% of all A-to-G sites showed only adenosine in the Adar5G1 sample Conclusions: We anticipate that our method will be very effective in the future to identify RNA editing events in different species. mRNA profiles of heads of 5 day old male dAdar-/- mutant (y, Adar5G1, w)26 and wild type (w1118) flies

Alu sequences in undifferentiated human embryonic stem cells display high levels of A-to-I RNA editing

Project description:Adenosine to Inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing is a site-specific modification of RNA transcripts, catalyzed by members of the ADAR (Adenosine Deaminase Acting on RNA) protein family. RNA editing occurs in human RNA in thousands of different sites. Some of the sites are located in protein-coding regions but the majority is found in non-coding regions, such as 3âUTRs, 5âUTRs and introns - mainly in Alu elements. While editing is found in all tissues, the highest levels of editing are found in the brain. It was shown that editing levels within protein-coding regions are increased during embryogenesis and after birth and that RNA editing is crucial for organism viability as well as for normal development. In this study we characterized the A-to-I RNA editing phenomenon during neuronal and spontaneous differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). We identified high editing levels of Alu repetitive elements in hESCs and demonstrated a global decrease in editing levels of non-coding Alu sites when hESCs are differentiating, particularly into the neural lineage. Using RNA interference, we showed that the elevated editing levels of Alu elements in undifferentiated hESCs are highly dependent on ADAR1. DNA microarray analysis showed that ADAR1 knockdown has a global effect on gene expression in hESCs and leads to a significant increase in RNA expression levels of genes involved in differentiation and development processes, including neurogenesis. Taken together, our data suggest that A-to-I editing of Alu sequences plays a role in the regulation of hESC early differentiation decisions. Two samples, One control and the second treated

Targeted exon skipping with AAV-mediated split adenine base editors.

Project description:Techniques for exclusion of exons from mature transcripts have been applied as gene therapies for treating many different diseases. Since exon skipping has been traditionally accomplished using technologies that have a transient effect, it is particularly important to develop new techniques that enable permanent exon skipping. We have recently demonstrated that this can be accomplished using cytidine base editors for permanently disabling the splice acceptor of target exons. We now demonstrate the application of adenine-deaminase base editors to disrupt the conserved adenosine within splice acceptor sites for programmable exon skipping. We also demonstrate that by altering the amino acid sequence of the linker between the adenosine deaminase domain and the Cas9 nickase or by coupling the adenine base editor with a uracil glycosylase inhibitor, the DNA editing efficiency and exon skipping rates improve significantly. Finally, we developed a split base editor architecture compatible with adeno-associated viral packaging. Collectively, these results represent significant progress towards permanent in vivo exon skipping through base editing and, ultimately, a new modality of gene therapy for the treatment of genetic diseases.

Investigating the genetic basis of RNA Editing in humans

Project description:Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADAR) are proteins that deaminate adenosine to inosine, which is then recognized by the ribosome as guanosine. To study the genetic basis of RNA editing efficiency by ADAR, we carried out deep RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) in human B-cells and uncovered more than 100,000 RNA editing sites. Next, we evaluated the extent of individual variation in the RNA editing among unrelated individuals from Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain (CEPH) and found significant variation in the levels of editing. To understand whether there exists a genetic component to the variation in RNA editing levels, we obtained RNA-Seq data from 10 pairs of monozygotic twins. These results revealed that there exists a significant genetic component to variation in RNA editing.

Single-nucleotide resolution mapping of DNA abasic sites by snAP-seq

Project description:Abasic (AP) sites are one of the most common forms of DNA damage which can lead to polymerase stalling, strand breaks and mutations. We developed snA-seq, a mapping method that reveals the location of abasic sites at base-resolution. Using synthetic DNA, we show that high selectivity for AP DNA is achieved. We use this method to explore the distribution of thymine modifications in the Leishmania major genome, by converting these into abasic sites using a glycosylase enzyme. We also apply snAP-seq to the human genome to study the distribution of endogenous AP sites, in both APE1 knockdown and control cells.

Study functions of ADAR proteins using next generation sequencing of genome and transcriptome

Project description:Adenosine deaminases, RNA specific (ADAR) are proteins that deaminate adenosine to inosine which is then recognized in translation as guanosine. To study the roles of ADAR proteins in RNA editing and gene regulation, we carried out DNA and RNA sequencing, RNA interference and RNA-immunoprecipitation in human B-cells. We also characterized the ADAR protein complex by mass spectrometry. The results uncovered over 60,000 sites where the adenosines (A) are edited to guanosine (G) and several thousand genes whose expression levels are influenced by ADAR. We also identified more than 100 proteins in the ADAR protein complex; these include splicing factors, heterogeneous ribonucleoproteins and several members of the dynactin protein family. Our findings show that in human B-cells, ADAR proteins are involved in two independent functions: A-to-G editing and gene expression regulation. In addition, we showed that other types of RNA-DNA sequence differences are not mediated by ADAR proteins, and thus there are co- or post-transcriptional mechanisms yet to be determined. Here we studied human B-cells where ADAR proteins (ADAR1 and ADAR2) are expressed but APOBECs are not. We identified the sequence differences between DNA and the corresponding RNA in B-cells from two individuals. Then, we carried out RNA interference, RNA-immunoprecipitation and next generation sequencing to determine the contribution of ADAR proteins in mediating A-to-G editing and other types of RNA-DNA sequence differences.

A-T to G-C base editing efficiency at targeted gene sites in HEK293T cell line

Project description:A-T to G-C base editing efficiency at targeted gene sites in HEK293T cells using the dCas12f-ABE design or the Cas12f-ABE design. Found that the total A-T to G-C conversion efficiency of Circular gRNAs exhibited about two-fold increase compared with U6 gRNAs. We further analyzed the pattern for A-T to G-C conversion on the target site, and observed that the most efficient base editing occurred in a narrow window A3 (3bp downstream of the PAM) similar to U6 gRNAs. In summary, Circular gRNAs with dCas12f-ABE design could enhance A-T to G-C base editing efficiency in a narrow window.
