P-bodies act as sites for dynamic RNA processing

ABSTRACT: Processing bodies (PBs) are cytoplasmic granules that function in the cellular response to stress conditions by regulating mRNA metabolism. They are thought to act as sites where non-translating mRNAs are localised to undergo degradation or sequestration, but their exact intracellular roles remain unclear. We used SH-linked alkylation for the metabolic sequencing of RNA (SLAM-seq) to study PB-localisation and global mRNA fate during glucose depletion conditions that induce PB formation. This enabled us to differentiate newly synthesized and pre-existing RNAs and to separately track mRNA synthesis and degradation. We show that pre-existing mRNAs localise to PBs with differing kinetics with some transcripts localising over the time-course of glucose starvation and some transcripts localising in a more dynamic manner. We identified a small number of transcripts that are transiently enriched in PBs and appear to depend on this localisation for decay. However, most transiently localised transcripts are not destabilized following glucose starvation and PBs appear to act as temporary storage sites for transcripts that later undergo alternative fates. For other transcripts, both their pre-existing and newly made transcripts accumulate in PBs over the time-course of glucose depletion and we suggest that these transcripts are important for adaptation once the nutrient stress is relieved. Together, our data indicate that different classes of mRNAs behave differently following nutrient depletion with P-bodies predominantly acting as triage sites for mRNAs with a more limited role in mRNA-degradation.

Systematic characterization of the composition and dynamics of processing body-associated mRNAs [dataset 3]

Project description:Processing bodies (PBs) are dynamic, membraneless organelles consisting of RNAs and proteins. While PB proteins have been extensively characterized, the methods for systematically profiling PB-associated RNAs are limited. To address this, we developed PB-TRIBE-STAMP, a new tool based on two orthogonal RNA editing enzymes. Simultaneously applying APOBEC1-DDX6 and LSM14A-ADAR2dd, PB-TRIBE-STAMP identified 1,639 and 2,577 PB-associated mRNAs in HCT116 and HEK293T cells, respectively. Further biochemical isolation of PBs followed by RNA-seq validated that edited transcripts of these mRNAs were indeed enriched in PBs. Integration of PB-TRIBE-STAMP with long-read sequencing revealed that the PB-associated transcripts possessed shorter poly(A)-tails and mRNA isoforms with longer 3’ UTRs were more likely to be associated with PBs than those with shorter ones. Moreover, we established a TRIBE-ID-based tool to characterize the mRNA-PB association at high temporal resolution and unveiled a higher splicing efficiency of PB-associated XBP1 transcripts during unfolded protein response (UPR). Finally, based on single-cell LSM14A-TRIBE-ID (sc-LSM14A-TRIBE-ID), we demonstrated the dynamic pattern of mRNA-PB association during cell cycle progression.

Simultaneous characterisation of RNA and protein subcellular dynamics

Project description:Existing methods to analyse RNA localisation are constrained to specific RNAs or subcellular niches, precluding the cell-wide mapping of RNA. We present Localisation of RNA (LoRNA), which maps, at once, RNAs to membranous (nucleus, ER and mitochondria) and membraneless compartments (cytosol, nucleolus and phase-separated granules). Simultaneous interrogation of all RNA locations allows the system-wide quantification of RNA proportional distribution and the comprehensive analysis of RNA subcellular dynamics. Moreover, we have re-engineered the LOPIT (Localisation Of Proteins by Isotope Tagging) method, enabling integration with LoRNA, to jointly map RNA and protein subcellular localisation. Applying this framework, we obtain a global re-localisation map for 31839 transcripts and 5314 proteins during the unfolded protein response, uncovering that ER-localised transcripts are more efficiently recruited to stress granules than cytosolic RNAs, and revealing eIF3d is key to sustain cytoskeletal function. Overall, we provide the most exhaustive map to date of RNA and protein subcellular dynamics.

Identification of mRNAS enriched in endothelial cell protrusions

Project description:Deciphering the complex biology of cell migration is key to understand human-related disorders. During angiogenesis, endothelial cells engage in coordinated migration events to form new blood vessels from parental counterparts. However, while subcellular localisation of mRNAs and localised translation are fundamental steps between gene transcription and protein activity, whether local regulation of gene expression controls the complex morphogenetic process of angiogenesis has never been addressed. Here, we set out to investigate the cytoplasmic distribution of mRNAs in migratory endothelial cells. We isolated RNA from endothelial cell protrusions from their cell bodies and used RNA-sequencing to identify asymmetrically distributed transcripts. These studies identified a set of transcripts enriched in endothelial cell protrusions over cell bodies, which included classically protrusion-enriched mRNAs and other intriguing transcripts encoding proteins implicated in cell migration.

AKAP12 UV RNA immunoprecipitation followed by high throughput sequencing

Project description:Regulation of subcellular mRNA localisation is a fundamental biological mechanism, which adds a spatial dimension to the diverse layers of post-transcriptional control of gene expression. Insights into this phenomenon have been described in a multitude of cell types and across taxonomic kingdoms, highlighting its biological significance. The cellular compartment in which mRNAs are located may define distinct aspects of the encoded proteins, ranging from production rate and complex formation to localised activity. Ultimately, mRNA localisation supports compartmentalised mechanistic outputs that can respond to local stimuli, orient migration, or even shape cells. We used an unbiased method to profile the RNA-bound proteome in migrating endothelial cells and found that the plasma membrane (PM)-associated A-kinase anchor protein 12 (AKAP12) interacts with various mRNAs, including mRNAs encoding kinases with Actin remodelling activity. To identify transcripts bound by AKAP12, we carried out UV crosslinking experiments followed by RNA immunoprecipitation and high throughput sequencing. Our data offer novel insights in complex mechanisms of spatial control of gene expression.

Integrated multi-omics reveals common properties underlying stress granule and P-body formation

Project description:Non-membrane-bound compartments such as mRNA processing bodies (PBs) and stress granules (SGs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression following environmental stresses. We have systematically determined the protein and mRNA composition of PBs and SGs formed in response to a common stress condition imposed by glucose depletion. We find that high molecular weight (HMW) complexes exist prior to glucose depletion that may act as seeds for the further condensation of proteins forming mature PBs and SGs. Both before and after glucose depletion, these HMW complexes are enriched for proteins containing low complexity and RNA binding domains. The mRNA content of these HMW complexes is enriched for long, structured mRNAs that become more poorly translated following glucose depletion. Many proteins and mRNAs are shared between PBs and SGs, suggesting a complex pattern of functional protein and mRNA pools exist in different condensates. Even where the precise identity of mRNAs and proteins localizing to PBs and SGs is distinct, the mRNAs and proteins share common biophysical and chemical features that likely trigger their phase separation.

Unveiling the role of RAB13 localisation in angiogenesis

Project description:Deciphering the complex biology of cell migration is key to understand human-related disorders. During angiogenesis, endothelial cells engage in coordinated migration events to form new blood vessels from parental counterparts. However, while subcellular localisation of mRNAs and localised translation are fundamental steps between gene transcription and protein activity, whether local regulation of gene expression controls the complex morphogenetic process of angiogenesis has never been addressed. Here, we focused on RAB13 mRNA, a transcript enriched at the leading front of many migratory cell types. We set out to delete regions in the 3'UTR of RAB13 mRNA responsible for its subcellular distribution in vitro and in vivo and to study its localised role during angiogenesis.

Targeted degradation of host messenger RNA by a bacterial pathogen [CLIP-seq]

Project description:Post-transcriptional processing and modification of messenger RNA (mRNA) regulates gene expression in eukaryotes by dictating the stability, localisation and translation of newly synthesised transcripts 1. These epitranscriptomic events are coordinated by an extensive network of RNA-binding proteins 2,3. Here we observed that the bacterial pathogen, Legionella pneumophila, caused the selective degradation of host cellular mRNAs encoding factors involved in glycolysis and related metabolic pathways. Screening of a library of L. pneumophila deletion mutant strains revealed a single effector protein, LegC4, that mediated the post-transcriptional degradation of host mRNAs encoding key glycolytic enzymes, thereby suppressing host glycolysis during infection. Using CLIP-seq and complementary methods, we observed that LegC4 bound to mature processed host mRNA recognising a guanine (G)-rich motif that was overrepresented within mRNAs targeted for degradation. In vitro activity assays showed that LegC4 harboured intrinsic RNase activity and structural determination of a catalytically inactive mutant of LegC4 in complex with single-stranded RNA revealed a unique RNA-binding domain 4. The selective binding and degradation of host mRNA by LegC4 reveals a previously undescribed mechanism of bacterial effector protein activity targeting the host epitranscriptome.
