Illumina sequencing of CRAC data obtained with Upf1 in yeast

ABSTRACT: The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved eukaryotic cytoplasmic surveillance pathway that degrades aberrant mRNAs carrying premature termination codons (PTC). In yeast, the long distance between the stop codon and the poly(A) tail dictates mRNA detection by NMD factors Upf1, Upf2 and Upf3, and trigger mRNA decay, independent of deadenylation. While Upf1 binds a wide range of mRNAs beyond PTC-containing substrates, the mechanism of its recruitment on non-PTC-containing mRNAs is unknown. Using Nanopore sequencing of Upf1-bound mRNAs, we discovered that known PTC-containing NMD targets have long poly(A) tails, confirming that Upf1 binding occurs rapidly prior to deadenylation. Strikingly, the largest category specifically bound to Upf1 consisted of mRNAs without PTC harboring short poly(A) tails, corresponding to well-translated and stable transcripts. We showed that the degradation of this subpopulation depends on the three Upf factors, revealing a hitherto unknown function of Upf1 and NMD cofactors in mRNA decay.

Illumina sequencing of Upf1-TAP immunoprecipitated transcripts in yeast

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved eukaryotic surveillance pathway known to degrade mRNAs containing premature termination codons (PTCs). A distance long enough between the stop codon and the poly(A)-binding protein (Pab1) is required for mRNA recognition by the NMD factors Upf1, Upf2 and Upf3. Using Nanopore direct RNA sequencing, we show that PTC-containing NMD targets account for only 6% of Upf1-associated RNA and have long poly(A) tails, indicating that Upf1-binding occurs prior to RNA deadenylation. Conversely, most Upf1-associated mRNAs have short poly(A) tails, lack a PTC and correspond to highly expressed genes. A short poly(A) tail is thus an important feature of NMD targets, redefining the scope of this RNA degradation pathway. We propose a model in which loss of Pab1-binding to short poly(A)-tailed mRNAs impairs translation termination and dictates the recruitment of the NMD machinery, uncovering a hitherto unknown role of NMD in the degradation of these transcripts.

A post-translational regulatory switch on UPF1 controls targeted mRNA degradation.

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) controls the quality of eukaryotic gene expression and also degrades physiologic mRNAs. How NMD targets are identified is incompletely understood. A central NMD factor is the ATP-dependent RNA helicase UPF1. Neither the distance in space between the termination codon and the poly(A) tail nor the binding of steady-state, largely hypophosphorylated UPF1 is a discriminating marker of cellular NMD targets, unlike for PTC-containing reporter mRNAs when compared to their PTC-free counterparts. Here, we map phosphorylated UPF1 (p-UPF1) binding sites using transcriptome-wide footprinting or DNA oligonucleotide-directed mRNA cleavage to report that p-UPF1 provides the first reliable cellular NMD-target marker. p-UPF1 is enriched on NMD target 3'UTRs along with SMG5 and SMG7 but not SMG1 or SMG6. Immunoprecipitations of UPF1 variants deficient in various aspects of the NMD process in parallel with FRET experiments reveal that ATPase/helicase-deficient UPF1 manifests high levels of RNA binding and disregulated hyperphosphorylation, whereas wild-type UPF1 releases from nonspecific RNA interactions in an ATP hydrolysis-dependent mechanism until an NMD target is identified. 3'UTR-associated UPF1 undergoes regulated phosphorylation on NMD targets, providing a binding platform for mRNA degradative activities. p-UPF1 binding to NMD target 3'UTRs is stabilized by SMG5 and SMG7. Our results help to explain why steady-state UPF1 binding is not a marker for cellular NMD substrates and how this binding is transformed to induce mRNA decay. RIP-seq experiments for p-UPF1, control IPs using rabbit IgG and additional control sample without IP were performed in duplicates

Regulated endocleavage balances the degradation of nonsense-mediated decay substrates

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) controls gene expression by eliminating mRNAs with premature or aberrant translation termination. Degradation of NMD substrates is initiated by the central NMD factor UPF1, which recruits the endonuclease SMG6 and the deadenylation-promoting SMG5/7 complex. Here we map transcriptome-wide sites of SMG6-mediated endocleavage via 3′ fragment capture and degradome sequencing.

Target discrimination in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay requires Upf1 ATPase activity (CLIP-Seq)

Project description:RNA quality control pathways serve to get rid of faulty RNAs and therefore must be able to discriminate these RNAs from those that are normal. Here we present evidence that the ATPase cycle of SF1 Helicase Upf1 is required for mRNA discrimination during Nonsense-Mediated Decay (NMD). Mutations affecting the Upf1 ATPase cycle disrupt the mRNA selectivity of Upf1, leading to indiscriminate accumulation of NMD complexes on both NMD target and non-target mRNAs. In addition, two modulators of NMD - translation and termination codon-proximal poly(A) binding protein - depend on Upf1 ATPase to limit Upf1-non-target association. Preferential ATPase-dependent dissociation of Upf1 from non-target mRNAs in vitro suggests that selective release of Upf1 contributes to the ATPase-dependence of Upf1 target discrimination. Given the prevalence of helicases in RNA regulation, ATP hydrolysis may be an underappreciated, yet widely employed, activity in target RNA discrimination.

Identification of target genes of the NMD factor SMG7b

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved mRNA quality control mechanism that identifies and destroys aberrant mRNAs that contain premature termination codons (PTCs). The NMD core comprises seven proteins, from SMG1 to SMG7. Arabidopsis has orthologues of most of these proteins. Studies on yeast, Drosophila, Humans and Arabidopsis reveal that NMD not only functions to target PTC-containing mRNAs but also acts as a global regulator of gene expression. It has also been reported that the NMD pathway branches with some target genes being dependent on specific NMD factors. In order to determine the extent to which different NMD factors co-regulate or independently regulate Arabidopsis genes, transcriptome analysis of smg7b-1 mutants will be carried out and added to existent data of upf1, upf3 and smg5 NMD mutants for comparison. RNA will be extracted from 17 day-old mutant and wild type seedlings grown at 22-24 C under constant light. 4 samples were used in this experiment

Multivalent Interactions with CCR4-NOT and PABPC1 Determine mRNA Repression Efficiency by Tristetraprolin

Project description:Tristetraprolin family of proteins regulate mRNA stability by binding to specific AU-rich elements in transcripts. This binding promotes the shortening of the mRNA poly(A) tail, or deadenylation, initiating mRNA degradation. The CCR4-NOT complex plays a central role in deadenylation, while the cytoplasmic poly(A)-binding protein PABPC1 typically protects mRNAs from decay. Here, we investigate how tristetraprolin interacts with CCR4-NOT and PABPC1 to control mRNA stability. Using purified proteins and in vitro assays, we find that tristetraprolin engages CCR4-NOT through multiple interaction sites and promotes its activity, emphasizing the importance of multivalent binding for efficient deadenylation. Phosphorylation of tristetraprolin does not affect its interaction with CCR4-NOT or its deadenylation activity, but is essential for tristetraprolin binding to PABPC1. We propose that tristetraprolin promotes the processive deadenylation activity of CCR4-NOT on mRNAs containing AU-rich elements, with phosphorylation-dependent interactions with PABPC1 potentially enhancing deadenylation and promoting regulated mRNA decay.
