Cytoplasmic mRNA decay by the anti-viral nuclease RNase L promotes transcriptional repression [S5P Pol II CUT&Run]

ABSTRACT: Ribonuclease (RNase) L is an antiviral factor that promiscuously degrades viral and cellular RNA in the cytoplasm. This results in extensive translational reprogramming, altering mRNA processing and export. Here, we reveal that another major consequence of cytoplasmic RNase L activity is the repression of nascent RNA synthesis in the nucleus. This is not associated with altered nuclear RNA stability but instead results from transcriptional repression. For RNA polymerase II, repression is primarily associated with reduced occupancy of serine 2-phosphorylated polymerase in gene bodies, indicating an elongation defect. Prominent among the transcriptionally downregulated loci are immune-related genes, supporting a role for RNase L in tempering innate immune and inflammatory responses. RNase L activation also caused disruption of nucleoli and reduced RNA polymerase I and III transcription. Crosstalk between RNA decay and transcription thereby contributes to the large-scale modulation of gene expression in RNase L-activated cells.

Genome-wide alterations in yeast strains lacking RNase H1, RNase H2, or both RNase H1 and RNase H2

Project description:Two types of RNA:DNA associations can lead to genome instability: the formation of R-loops during transcription and the incorporation of ribonucleotide monophosphates (rNMPs) into DNA during replication. Both ribonuclease (RNase) H1 and RNase H2 degrade the RNA component of R-loops, whereas only RNase H2 can remove one or a few rNMPs from DNA. We performed high-resolution mapping of mitotic recombination events throughout the yeast genome in diploid strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae lacking RNase H1 (rnh1Δ), RNase H2 (rnh201Δ), or both RNase H1 and RNase H2 (rnh1Δ rnh201Δ). We found little effect on recombination in the rnh1Δ strain, but elevated recombination in both the rnh201Δ and the double-mutant strains; levels of recombination in the double mutant were about 50% higher than in the rnh201 single-mutant strain. An rnh201Δ mutant that additionally contained a mutation that reduces rNMP incorporation by DNA polymerase ε (pol2-M644L) had a level of instability similar to that observed in the presence of wild-type Polε. This result suggests that the elevated recombination observed in the absence of only RNase H2 is primarily a consequence of R loops rather than misincorporated rNMPs.

Composition and RNA binding specificity of metazoan RNase MRP

Project description:Mechanistic studies have revealed ribonuclease (RNase) MRP, a conserved RNA-based enzyme, is crucial for the maturation of ribosomal RNA in eukaryotes. However, the composition and RNA substrate specificity of this multisubunit ribonucleoprotein complex in higher eukaryotes remain unknown. Here, we identify NEPRO and C18ORF21 as constitutive subunits of metazoan RNase MRP. Both proteins are specific to RNase MRP and are the only ones distinguishing this enzyme from the closely related RNase P, which selectively cleaves transfer RNA-like substrates. We find that NEPRO and C18ORF21 each form a complex with all other subunits of RNase MRP, stabilize its catalytic RNA, and are required for rRNA maturation and cell proliferation. We harness our discovery to identify a full suite of in vivo RNA targets of each enzyme, including positions of potential cleavage sites at nucleotide resolution. In Summary, this project shows the general composition of metazoan RNase MRP, illuminate its RNA binding specificity, and provide valuable assets for functional exploration of this essential eukaryotic enzyme.

Inactivation of RNase P in Escherichia coli significantly changes post-transcriptional RNA metabolism

Project description:Ribonuclease P (RNase P) is the only ribonuclease responsible for 5'-end maturation of tRNAs in all kingdoms of life. In Escherichia coli, it is also essential for separation of pre-tRNAs from multiple polycistronic transcripts. Using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), we show here that RNase P affects the abundance of ~44% of the expressed mRNAs demonstrating a much more widespread role in mRNA decay than previously thought. Furthermore, our data also demonstrate for the first time that the polyadenylation of transcripts by PAP I modulates RNase P-mediated mRNA decay as well as tRNA processing.

Rnase L reprograms translation by widespread mRNA turnover escaped by antiviral mRNAs

Project description:In response to foreign and endogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), protein kinase R (PKR) and ribonuclease L (RNase L) reprogram translation in mammalian cells. PKR inhibits translation initiation through eIF2 phosphorylation, which triggers stress granule (SG) formation and promotes translation of stress responsive mRNAs. The mechanisms of RNase L-driven translation repression, its contribution to SG assembly, and its regulation of dsRNA stress-induced mRNAs are unknown. We demonstrate that RNase L drives translational shut-off in response to dsRNA by promoting widespread turnover of mRNAs. This alters stress granule assembly and reprograms translation by only allowing for the translation of mRNAs resistant to RNase L degradation, including numerous antiviral mRNAs such as IFN- . Individual cells differentially activate dsRNA responses revealing variation that can affect cellular outcomes. This identifies bulk mRNA degradation and the resistance of antiviral mRNAs as the mechanism by which RNaseL reprograms translation in response to dsRNA.

RraA. a protein inhibitor of RNase E activity that globally modulates RNA abundance in E. coli

Project description:Abstract: Ribonuclease E (RNase E) has a key role in mRNA degradation and the processing of catalytic and structural RNAs in E. coli. We report the discovery of an evolutionarily conserved 17.4 kDa protein, here named RraA (regulator of ribonuclease activity A) that binds to RNase E and inhibits RNase E endonucleolytic cleavages without altering cleavage site specificity or interacting detectably with substrate RNAs. Overexpression of RraA circumvents the effects of an autoregulatory mechanism that normally maintains the RNase E cellular level within a narrow range, resulting in the genome-wide accumulation of RNase E-targeted transcripts. While not required for RraA action, the C-terminal RNase E region that serves as a scaffold for formation of a multiprotein degradosome complex modulates the inhibition of RNase E catalytic activity by RraA. Our results reveal a possible mechanism for the dynamic regulation of RNA decay and processing by inhibitory RNase binding proteins. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Acetylation regulates the oligomerization state and activity of RNase J, the major ribonuclease of Helicobacter pylori

Project description:In Helicobacter pylori, the major actor in post-transcriptional regulation is an RNA degradosome assembly composed of the essential ribonuclease RNase J and the DEAD-box RNA helicase RhpA. Here, we describe the oligomeric state and post-translational modifications of this protein complex. Our crystal structure of RNase J at 2.75 Å resolution reveals a homotetrameric quaternary state, and solution studies show that purified RNase J forms monomers and dimers, that RhpA is a monomer, and that the two proteins interact to form a stable complex with a 1:1 stoichiometry. Using mass spectrometry, we observed that RNase J is acetylated on multiple residues, one of which, K649, is important for RNase J oligomerization. Mutations targeting this residue and others affect the dimerization and in vitro activity of RNase J, suggesting that the dimer is the active form. In H. pylori, we observed that several of the identified acetylated residues impact on cell morphology, suggesting their importance for RNase J cellular function. Using H. pylori mutants, we found that several pathways contribute to RNase J acetylation. We propose acetylation as a regulatory level controlling RNase J properties and as a consequence the activity of the H. pylori RNA degradosome.
