Lysosomal RNA profiling reveals targeting of specific types of RNAs for degradation

ABSTRACT: Autophagy targets a wide variety of substrates for degradation within lysosomes. Although lysosomes are known to possess RNase activity, the role of lysosomal RNA degradation in post-transcriptional gene regulation is not well understood. We defined RNASET2, PLD3, and both endogenous and exogenous RNase A family members as lysosomal RNases. Cells lacking these RNases accumulated large amounts of lysosomal RNA. Quantitative RNA sequencing of lysosomal contents revealed that although all RNA types can enter lysosomes, the SRP RNAs, Y RNAs, 5′ TOP mRNAs, long-lived mRNAs, and mRNAs encoding membrane and secreted proteins were specifically enriched. This specificity was due to autophagy, and lysosomally degraded transcripts had autophagy-dependent changes in stability. To explore the basis of this specificity, we identified sequence motifs of SRP RNAs and 5′ TOP mRNAs that are necessary and sufficient for enhanced lysosomal targeting. Our results establish lysosomes as selective modulators of cellular RNA content.

RNase and sRNA activity in Brucella abortus

Project description:Isogenic deletion and truncation of specific genes encoding RNases in Brucella abortus were analyzed for changes in gene expression. The main goal of this work is to determine the mRNAs that exhibit dysregulation when small regulatory RNAs (i.e., Bsr8) or RNases (i.e., RNaseE and RNaseJ) are invactivated in Brucella abortus. Small regulatory RNAs often control gene expression by binding directly to mRNAs to block translation or induce their degradation, and RNA from a deletion of one sRNA gene, bsr8, was analyzed to uncover the mRNAs that may be controlled by BsrB. RNases are enzymes that cleave RNAs during processing, turnover, and regulatory events, and RNaseE and RNaseJ appear to be important for B. abortus virulence. Therefore, to determine the mRNAs potentially targetd by these RNases, RNA from a strain harboring a RNaseE truncation and a strain carrying a deletion of rnaseJ were analyzed. In the end, the objective of this study was to gain insight into the regulatory patterns of specific B. abortus sRNAs and RNases.

Pivotal Roles for Ribonucleases in Streptococcus pneumoniae Pathogenesis

Project description:RNases perform indispensable functions in regulating gene expression in many bacterial pathogens by processing and/or degrading RNAs. Despite the pivotal role of RNases in regulating bacterial virulence factors, the functions of RNases have not yet been studied in the major human respiratory pathogen Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus). Here, we sought to determine the impact of two conserved RNases, the endoribonuclease RNase Y and exoribonuclease polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), on the physiology and virulence of S. pneumoniae serotype 2 strain D39. We report that RNase Y and PNPase are essential for pneumococcal pathogenesis as both deletion mutants showed strong attenuation of virulence in murine models of invasive pneumonia. Genome-wide transcriptomic analysis revealed that nearly 200 mRNA transcripts were significantly up-regulated, whereas the abundance of several pneumococcal sRNAs, including the Ccn (CiaR Controlled Noncoding RNA) sRNAs, were altered in the ∆rny mutant relative to the wild-type strain. Additionally, lack of RNase Y resulted in pleiotropic phenotypes that included defects in pneumococcal cell morphology and growth in vitro. In contrast, Dpnp mutants showed no growth defect in vitro, but differentially expressed a total of 40 transcripts including the tryptophan biosynthesis operon genes and numerous 5’-cis-acting regulatory RNAs, a majority of which were previously shown to impact pneumococcal disease progression in mice using the serotype 4 strain TIGR4. Altogether our data suggest that RNase Y exerts a global impact on pneumococcal physiology, while PNPase-mediates virulence phenotypes, likely through sRNA regulation.

Enhanced and selective translation expands the lysosome size and promotes antigen presentation during phagocyte activation

Project description:The mechanisms that govern organelle remodeling remain poorly defined. Lysosomes degrade cargo from various routes including endocytosis, phagocytosis and autophagy. For phagocytes, lysosomes are a kingpin organelle since they are essential to kill pathogens and process and present antigens. During phagocyte activation, lysosomes undergo a striking reorganization, changing from dozens of globular structures to a tubular network, in a process that requires the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-AKT-mTOR signalling pathway. Here, we show that lysosomes undergo a remarkable expansion in volume and holding capacity during phagocyte activation within 2 h of LPS stimulation. Lysosome expansion was paralleled by an increase in lysosomal protein levels, but this was unexpectedly independent of TFEB and TFE3 transcription factors, known to scale up lysosome biogenesis. Instead, we demonstrate a hitherto unappreciated mechanism of acute organelle expansion via mTORC1-dependent increase in translation of mRNAs encoding key lysosomal proteins. Importantly, mTORC1-dependent increase in translation activity was necessary for efficient and rapid antigen presentation by dendritic cells. Collectively, we identified a previously unknown and functionally relevant mechanism for lysosome expansion that relies on mTORC1-dependent enhanced translation of mRNAs to boost protein synthesis and lysosome biogenesis in response to an infection signal.

Effect of age, lysosomal degradation and mitochondrial replication on mouse hematopoietic stem cell

Project description:Aging impairs the function of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), promotes clonal hematopoiesis and myeloid malignancies, and contributes to immune decline in the elderly. The role of lysosomes – the cell’s primary degradation organelles – beyond their passive mediation of autophagy in HSC aging remains unknown. Here, we show that lysosomes in aged HSCs are depleted, damaged, hyperacidic, and aberrantly activated compared to those in young HSCs. Using single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and functional analyses, we demonstrate that pharmacological inhibition of damaged hyperactivated lysosomes – by a vacuolar ATPase (v-ATPase) inhibitor that blocks lysosomal hyperacidification – restores lysosomal integrity, as well as metabolic and epigenetic homeostasis in aged HSCs. This intervention also resolves inflammatory and interferon-related transcriptional programs by enhancing lysosomal processing of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and suppressing intrinsic inflammation mediated by the cGAS–STING DNA-sensing pathway.

β2-adrenergic agonists rescue lysosome acidification and function in PSEN1 deficiency by reversing defective ER to lysosome delivery of ClC-7

Project description:Lysosomal dysfunction is considered pathogenic in Alzheimer Disease (AD). Loss of Presenilin-1(PSEN1) function causing early onset AD impedes acidification via defective vATPase V0a1 subunit delivery to lysosomes. We report that isoproterenol and related β2-adrenergic agonists re-acidify lysosomes in PSEN1 KO cells and fibroblasts from PSEN1 familial AD(FAD) patients, restores lysosomal calcium homeostasis and proteolysis, and reverses impaired autophagy flux. We identify a novel rescue mechanism involving PKA-mediated facilitated delivery of ClC-7 to lysosomes, which stimulates chloride influx and reverses markedly lowered Cl- content of PSEN1 KO lysosomes. Notably, PSEN1 loss-of-function impedes ER-to-lysosome delivery of ClC-7, thus accounting for lysosomal Cl- deficits that compound pH deficits due to deficient vATPase function. Transcriptomics of PSEN1-deficient cells reveal strongly down-regulated ER-to-lysosome transport pathways and reversibility by isoproterenol. Our findings uncover a broadened PSEN1 role in lysosomal ion homeostasis and novel pH modulation of lysosomes through β-adrenergic regulation of ClC-7, which can be therapeutically modulated.

GNPS Metabolomics Profiling of Single Enlarged Lysosomes Defines the Molecular Signature of Lysosomal Heterogeneity

Project description:Lysosomes are critical for cellular metabolism and heterogeneously involved in various cellular processes such as endocytosis, autophagy and senescence. The ability to measure lysosomal metabolic heterogeneity is essential for understanding its physiological roles. We therefore built a single-lysosome mass spectrometry (SLMS) platform integrating lysosomal patch-clamp recording and induced nanoESI/MS that enabled concurrent metabolic and electrophysiological profiling of individual enlarged lysosomes.

Identification of proteins interacting with translating RPAC reporter mRNAs (FGH17)

Project description:To discover new regulators of Regulatory Particle Assembly Chaperone (RPAC) translation, we identified RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) with increased recruitment to translating WT FGH17 mRNAs compared to non-translatable FGH17-40ntΔ mRNAs in vivo. To this end, we first treated yeast cells with rapamycin to stimulate translation of FGH17 mRNAs. Ribosomes were locked on mRNAs using cycloheximide and UV-crosslinking covalently linked the RNA and any bound proteins together. We next used anti-FLAG beads to immunoprecipitate translated FGH17 protein, as well as any translating FGH17-mRNA complexes where locked ribosomes had already synthesized one or both N-terminal FLAG tags. As FGH17-40ntΔ mRNAs are not translated, these samples should only immunoprecipitate proteins that bind non-specifically to the anti-FLAG beads. Based on the prediction that potential regulators of RPAC translation would be UV crosslinked to FGH17 mRNA within the 5’ UTR and upstream of locked translating ribosomes, we used RNases to specifically elute these potential regulators. We then identified the proteins in the RNase elution by tandem mass tag (TMT)-based quantitative proteomics.

Bacterial RNA sensing by TLR8 requires RNase 6 processing and is inhibited by RNA 2’O-methylation

Project description:Mechanistic studies have revealed that TLR8 senses single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) fragments, processed via synergistic cleavage by ribonucleases (RNase) T2 and RNase A family members. Processing by these RNases releases uridines and purine-terminated residues resulting in TLR8 activation. Monocytes show high expression of RNase 6, yet this RNase has not been analyzed for its physiological contribution to recognition of bacterial RNA by TLR8. Herein, we characterized molecular RNase 6 cleavage mechanisms. BLaER1 RNASE6-/- cells showed a dampened TLR8-dependent response upon stimulation with isolated bacterial RNA (bRNA) but also upon infection with live whole bacteria. Pretreatment of bacterial RNA with recombinant RNase 6 generated fragments that induced stimulation in RNASE6 knockout cells. 2’O-RNA methyl modification, when introduced at the first uridine in the UA dinucleotide, impaired upstream processing by RNase 6 and dampened TLR8 stimulation. In summary, this data shows that RNase 6 plays a critical role in the processing of bacterial RNA by generating uridine-terminated breakdown products that ultimately activate TLR8.

Aneuploidy-induced cellular stresses limit autophagic degradation.

Project description:An unbalanced karyotype, a condition known as aneuploidy, has a profound impact on cellular physiology and is a hallmark of cancer. Determining how aneuploidy affects cells is thus critical to understanding tumorigenesis. Here we show that aneuploidy interferes with the degradation of autophagosomes within lysosomes. Mis-folded proteins that accumulate in aneuploid cells due to aneuploidy-induced proteomic changes overwhelm the lysosome with cargo, leading to the observed lysosomal degradation defects. Importantly, aneuploid cells respond to lysosomal saturation. They activate a lysosomal stress pathway that specifically increases the expression of genes needed for autophagy-mediated protein degradation. Our results reveal lysosomal saturation as a universal feature of the aneuploid state that must be overcome during tumorigenesis. RPE-1 cells either untreated or treated with one of Reversine, Bafilomycin A1 or MG132, each condition was done in triplicate. D14-*_Control: untreated control D14-*_Rev: cells treated with 0.5uM Reversine for 24hrs and harvested 48hrs later D14-*_Baf: cells treated with 0.1uM BafA1 for 6hrs D14-*_Mg: cells treated with 1uM MG132 for 24 hrs

Peripheral positioning of lysosomes supports melanoma aggressiveness

Project description:Emerging evidences suggest that both function and position of organelles are pivotal for tumor cell dissemination. Among them, lysosomes stand out as they integrate metabolic sensing with gene regulation and secretion of proteases. Yet, how lysosomes function is linked to their position and thereby control metastatic progression remains elusive. Here, we analyzed lysosome subcellular distribution in micropatterned patient-derived melanoma cells and found that lysosome spreading scales with their aggressiveness. Peripheral lysosomes promote invadopodia-based matrix degradation and invasion of melanoma cells which is directly linked to their lysosomal and cell transcriptional programs. When controlling lysosomal positioning using chemo-genetical heterodimerization in melanoma cells, we demonstrated that perinuclear clustering impairs lysosomal secretion, matrix degradation and invasion. Impairing lysosomal spreading in a zebrafish metastasis model significantly reduces invasive outgrowth. Our study provides a mechanistic demonstration that lysosomal positioning controls cell invasion, illustrating the importance of organelle adaptation in carcinogenesis.
