Discovery of an HIV-1-encoded circular RNA that enhances viral transcription

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of transcripts that are formed when portions of a pre-mRNA molecule are spliced together in a closed loop. Here, we discover a novel HIV-1-encoded viral circRNA present in patient-derived plasma and infected T-cell lines, demonstrating that an RNA retrovirus can generate circRNAs. This HIV-1-encoded circRNA is packaged within HIV-1 virions, binds the HIV-1 Tat protein, and enhances transcription from the HIV-1 promoter. Our study sheds lights on a previously overlooked aspect of HIV-1 transcription and presents interactions between viral proteins and viral circRNAs as novel mechanisms underlying viral pathogenesis.

A3G and A3F CLIP

Project description:APOBEC3G and APOBEC3F are cell-encoded restriction factors that have evolved to counteract virus infections. When packaged into HIV-1 particles, A3G and A3F impair reverse transcription and induce the hypermutation of viral DNA. We employed a next generation sequencing approach to identify the RNAs that these proteins bind in HIV-1 infected cells and HIV-1 virions. We then analysed the mechanism of packaging of APOBEC3 in detail.

Total RNA-seq analysis of WT and Gag chimera HIV-1 virions

Project description:To investigate how the major HIV-1 structural protein Gag packages viral genomes efficiently, we replaced the NC domain of Gag with RNA binding domains from heterologous cellular RNA binding proteins to generate Gag chimeras. We hypothesize that the Gag chimeras that preferentially bind to purine-rich RNA sequences will package viral genomes efficiently. We performed total RNA-seq to identify the RNAs that are packaged by WT Gag and Gag chimeras in HIV-1 virions.

Structured elements drive circular RNA translation and expand the human proteome, part1

Project description:The human genome encodes tens of thousands circular RNAs (circRNAs) whose levels correlate with many disease states. While studies have focused on the non-coding functions of circRNAs, emerging evidence suggests that a handful of circRNAs encode proteins. Translation canonically starts by recognition of mRNA 5’cap and scanning to the start codon; how circRNA translation initiates remains unclear. Here, we developed a high-throughput screen to systematically identify and quantify RNA sequences that can direct circRNA translation. We identify and validate over 17,000 circRNA internal ribosome entry sites (IRES) and reveal that 18S rRNA complementarity and a structured RNA element on the IRES are important for facilitating circRNA cap-independent translation. With genomic and peptidomic analyses of the IRES, we identified nearly 1,000 putative endogenous protein-coding circRNAs and hundreds of translational units encoded by these circRNAs. We further characterized circFGFR1p, a protein encoded by circFGFR1, functions as a negative regulator of FGFR1 to suppress cell growth under stress conditions. The circRNA proteome may be important links among circRNA, biological control, and disease.

rat bladder LC-MS/MS proteomics

Project description:Objective: Bladder outlet obstruction (BOO) is a common urologic disease associated with poorly understood molecular mechanisms. This study aimed to investigate the possible involvements of circRNAs (circular RNAs) and circRNA-encoded proteins in BOO development. Methods: The rat BOO model was established by the partial bladder outlet obstruction surgery. Differential expression of circRNA and protein profiles were characterized by deep RNA sequencing and iTRAQ quantitative proteomics respectively. Novel proteins encoded by circRNAs were predicted through ORF (open reading frame) selection using the GETORF software and verified by the mass spectrometry in proteomics, combined with the validation of their expressional alterations by quantitative RT-PCR. Results: Totally 3051 circRNAs were differentially expressed in bladder tissues of rat BOO model with widespread genomic distributions, including 1414 up-regulated and 1637 down-regulated circRNAs. Our following quantitative proteomics revealed significant changes of 85 proteins in rat BOO model, which were enriched in multiple biological processes and signaling pathways such as the PPAR and Wnt pathways. Among them, 21 differentially expressed proteins were predicted to be encoded by circRNAs and showed consistent circRNA and protein levels in rat BOO model. The expression of five protein-encoding circRNA were further validated by quantitative RT-PCR and mass spectrometry. Conclusion: The circRNA and protein profiles were substantially altered in rat BOO model, with great expressional changes of circRNA-encoded novel proteins.

Analysis of intron sequences reveals hallmarks of circular RNA biogenesis in animals

Project description:Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a large class of animal RNAs. To investigate possible circRNA functions, it is important to understand circRNA biogenesis. Besides human Alu repeats, sequence features that promote exon circularization are largely unknown. We experimentally identified new circRNAs in C. elegans. Reverse complementary sequences between introns bracketing circRNAs were significantly enriched compared to linear controls. By scoring the presence of reverse complementary sequences in human introns we predicted and experimentally validated novel circRNAs. We show that introns bracketing circRNAs are highly enriched in RNA editing or hyper-editing events. Knockdown of the double-strand RNA editing ADAR1 enzyme significantly and specifically up-regulated circRNA expression. Together, our data support a model of animal circRNA biogenesis in which competing RNA:RNA interactions of introns form larger structures which promote circularization of embedded exons, while ADAR1 antagonizes circRNA expression by melting stems within these interactions. Thus, we assign a new function to ADAR1. Examination of 12 samples in different stages of C.elegans development.
