PAN2 Maintains mRNA Poly(A) Tail Homeostasis and Regulates RNA Degradation During Early Embryonic Development in Mice [PAIso-seq]

ABSTRACT: RNA homeostasis regulators and surveillance factors function in the global transcriptome of oocytes and early embryos. Among them, the CNOT6L and CNOT7 proteins of the BTG4, PABPN1L, and CCR4-NOT subunits, as well as TUTs, are involved in the degradation of maternal mRNA, and are crucial for oocyte maturation and early embryonic development. However, the physiological functions of the PAN2-PAN3 complex, which is upstream of CCR4-NOT, in female reproductive cells have not yet been clarified. In this study, we have found that the absence of maternal Pan2 leads to embryonic developmental disorders and a significant decline in female reproductive capacity. By applying PAIso-seq2 and mass spectrometry analysis, we investigated the distribution and dynamics of mRNA poly(A) tails during early embryonic development. We found that the absence of Pan2 in early embryos perturbed the global balance of poly(A) tails, which in turn disrupted the transcriptome, affected mRNA degradation, and led to the accumulation of aberrant proteins. Furthermore, the maternal mRNA degradation mediated by PAN2 is crucial for the normal initiation of ZGA, and it can also regulate the expression of factors that determine cell fate in early mouse embryos. These findings highlight the crucial physiological role of PAN2 in early embryos and expand our understanding of the relationship between RNA homeostasis and the poly(A) tail.

PAN2 Maintains mRNA PolyA Tail Homeostasis and Regulates Translation during Spermiogenesis in Mouse

Project description:Elongation and shortening of the polyA tail are the most common type of post-transcriptional mRNA regulation in eukaryotic cells. Two protein complexes, PAN2-PAN3 and CCR4-NOT, are major cytoplasmic deadenylases that trim the mRNA polyA tails. While PAN2-PAN3 removes the distal portion of the long polyA tails, CCR4-NOT removes adenosine closer to the 3'-UTR. Some subunits in the CCR4-NOT complex have been shown to play synergistic biochemical functions during mouse germ cell development. However, the in vivo functions of the upstream deadenylase PAN2-PAN3 remain unclear, particularly in mammals. In this study, we found that germline-specific deletion of Pan2 leads to male infertility. Pan2 knockout did not affect the prophase of meiosis I, but led to abnormal spermiogenesis and apoptosis of male germ-cells. By Palso-seq and Ribo-lite, we found that the deletion of Pan2 increased the number of long-tail mRNAs in spermiogenesis and disrupted the translation efficiency of genes that should be highly translated at this stage. These findings highlight the crucial physiological functions of PAN2 in gametogenesis and expand our understanding of the posttranscriptional regulation of mRNAs in specific physiological processes.

Nuclear Poly(A)-binding Protein 1-like (PABPN1L) Mediates Cytoplasmic mRNA Decay As a Placeholder during Maternal-to-zygotic Transition

Project description:Maternal mRNA degradation is a critical event of maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) that determines the developmental potential of early embryos. Nuclear Poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPNs) are extensively involved in mRNA post-transcriptional regulations, but their functions in mammalian MZT has not been investigated. In this study, we identified a novel maternal-effect factor PABPN1-like (PABPN1L), rather than its ubiquitously expressed homolog PABPN1, as an RNA-binding adapter of the mammalian MZT licensing factor BTG4 which mediates maternal mRNAs clearance. Female Pabpn1l null mice produced morphologically normal oocytes but were infertile owing to early developmental arrest of the resultant embryos at the 1-to-2-cell stages without undergoing ZGA. Deletion of Pabpn1l impairs the deadenylation and degradation of a subset of BTG4-targeted maternal mRNAs during MZT. In addition to recruiting BTG4 to the mRNA 3ʹ-poly(A) tails, PABPN1L is also required for BTG4 protein accumulation in maturing oocytes by protecting BTG4 from SCF-βTrCP1 E3 ubiquitin ligase-mediated polyubiquitination and degradation. This study highlights a noncanonical cytoplasmic function of nuclear poly(A)-binding proteins mRNA turnover as well as its physiological importance during MZT.

The CCR4-NOT complex suppresses untimely translational activation of maternal mRNAs.

Project description:Control of mRNA poly(A) tail has central role to regulate mRNA metabolism: translation efficiency and mRNA stability. Gene expression in maturing oocytes largely relies on the regulation of mRNA metabolism as they are transcriptionally silent. The CCR4-NOT complex is a major deadenylase for mammals and regulates poly(A) tails of maternal mRNAs, however their function to translational regulation was not well understood. Here we show that CCR4-NOT suppresses translational activity of maternal mRNAs during oocyte maturation. Oocytes which lack entire deadenylase activity of CCR4-NOT by genetic deletion of its catalytic subunits: CNOT7 and CNOT8 showed increase of both expression of maternal mRNAs and translational activity of them during oocyte maturation.

Maternal mRNA degradation by TUT4 and TUT7 in the zebrafish maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:During the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), maternal RNAs are actively degraded and replaced by newly-synthesized zygotic transcripts in a highly coordinated manner. However, it remains largely unknown how maternal mRNA decay is triggered in early vertebrate embryos. Here, through genome-wide profiling of RNA abundance and 3′ modification, we show that uridylation is induced at the onset of maternal mRNA clearance. The temporal control of uridylation is conserved in vertebrates. When the homologs of terminal uridylyltransferases TUT4 and TUT7 (TUT4/7) are depleted in zebrafish and Xenopus, maternal mRNA clearance is significantly delayed, leading to developmental defects during gastrulation. Short-tailed mRNAs are selectively uridylated by TUT4/7, with the highly uridylated transcripts degraded faster during the MZT than those with unmodified poly(A) tails. Our study demonstrates that uridylation plays a crucial role in timely mRNA degradation, thereby allowing the progression of early development.

eIF4E1b is a non-canonical eIF4E required for maternal mRNA dormancy

Project description:Maternal mRNAs are essential for protein synthesis during oogenesis and early embryogenesis. To adapt translation to specific needs during development, maternal mRNAs are translationally repressed by shortening the polyA tails. While mRNA deadenylation is associated with decapping and degradation in somatic cells, maternal mRNAs with short polyA tails are stable. Here we report an essential role for the germline-specific paralog of the mRNA cap-binding factor eIF4E, known as eIF4E1b, in the storage and repression of maternal mRNAs with short polyA tails. eIF4E1b binds to the mRNA cap and is targeted to ribonucleoprotein complexes through its direct interaction with eIF4ENIF1/4E-T. In early embryos, eIF4E1b binds to a specific set of translationally repressed mRNAs with short or no polyA tails, such as histone mRNAs, which are translated later on during embryogenesis. Consistent with an important role in maternal mRNA dormancy, mutation of eIF4E1b in zebrafish impairs female germline development. Understanding the mechanism and function of eIF4E1B provides new insights into fundamental post-transcriptional regulatory principles governing early vertebrate development.

Cytoplasmic polyadenylation is a major regulator of mRNA fate during oogenesis and egg activation.

Project description:The GLD-2 class of poly(A) polymerases regulate the timing of translation of stored transcripts by elongating the poly(A) tails of target mRNAs in the cytoplasm. WISPY is a GLD-2 enzyme that acts in the Drosophila female germline and is required for the completion of the egg-to-embryo transition. Though a handful of WISPY target mRNAs have been identified during both oogenesis and early embryogenesis, we aimed to discover the full range of WISPY targets at each stage. To globally identify these targets, we carried out microarray analysis to look for maternal mRNAs whose poly(A) tails fail to elongate in the absence of WISP function. We examined the polyadenylated portion of the maternal transcriptome in both stage 14 (mature) oocytes and in early embryos that had completed egg activation. Our analysis shows that the poly(A) tails of thousands of maternal mRNAs fail to elongate in wisp-deficient oocytes and embryos. Furthermore, we have identified specific classes of genes that are highly regulated in this manner at each stage. Our study shows that cytoplasmic polyadenylation is a major regulatory mechanism during oocyte maturation and egg activation.

Interrogating the interaction of fission yeast RNA-binding protein Puf3 with the Ccr4-Not complex using crosslinking mass spectrometry

Project description:mRNA decay is a key determinant of gene regulation, initiated by the shortening of mRNA poly(A) tails by the CCR4-NOT deadenylation complex. Specificity is achieved through RNA adaptors—RNA-binding proteins that recruit CCR4-NOT to specific substrate mRNAs in a regulated manner. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this specificity remain unclear in many cases. In this study, we applied crosslinking MS to investigate the interaction between the fission yeast RNA-binding protein Puf3 and the Ccr4-Not complex.

The SPN-4 Rbfox RNA-binding protein selects maternal mRNAs for CCR4-NOT-dependent clearance in C. elegans embryos

Project description:The elimination of many maternal mRNAs is an essential feature of the maternal-to-zygotic transition. We report an essential pathway that clears many maternal transcripts from early C. elegans embryos using the RbFox-related SPN-4 RNA-binding protein as a specificity factor and the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex as an effector. We biochemically identified SPN-4-associated mRNAs from late-stage oocytes and found that the set of SPN-4-associated transcripts is enriched for maternal mRNAs that undergo early decay. Single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization experiments established that many SPN-4-associated mRNAs fail to be eliminated in the absence of SPN-4. In the 3’UTRs of two target mRNAs, we identified RbFox motifs that bind SPN-4 in vitro and are required for SPN-4-dependent clearance in vivo. In a genetic screen to identify factors that work with SPN-4, we isolated alleles of CCR4-NOT components. Auxin-induced degradation of the LET-711/NOT1 scaffold and the CCF-1 deadenylase disrupted clearance of two SPN-4-associated transcripts. Our results support a model in which SPN-4 initiates expression in late-stage oocytes, associates with maternal mRNA targets through RNA sequences in their 3’UTRs and promotes CCR4-NOT-mediated decay during early embryogenesis.
