Codon usage and 3′ UTR length determine maternal mRNA stability in zebrafish

ABSTRACT: The control of mRNA stability plays a central role in regulating gene expression. In metazoans, the earliest stages of development are driven by maternally supplied mRNAs. The degradation of these maternal mRNAs is critical for promoting the maternal-to-zygotic transition of developmental programs, although the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood in vertebrates. Here, we characterized maternal mRNA degradation pathways in zebrafish using a transcriptome analysis and systematic reporter assays. Our data demonstrate that ORFs enriched with uncommon codons promote deadenylation by the CCR4-NOT complex in a translation-dependent manner. This codon-mediated mRNA decay is conditional on the context of the 3′ UTR, with long 3′ UTRs conferring resistance to deadenylation. These results indicate that the combined effect of codon usage and 3′ UTR length determines the stability of maternal mRNAs in zebrafish embryos. Our study thus highlights the codon-mediated mRNA decay as a conserved regulatory mechanism in eukaryotes.

Defining codon-mediated mRNA decay and No-go decay in zebrafish embryos

Project description:The control of mRNA stability plays a central role in regulating gene expression patterns. While much is known about the roles of 5´ and 3´ untranslated regions in the mRNA stability control, the impact of protein-coding sequences on mRNA stability had been obscure. Recently, several groups reported that codon composition in the ORF affects mRNA deadenylation and degradation rates in a translation-dependent manner. Hence, codons define not only the amino acid sequences to be synthesized but also the stability of mRNAs. However, how 61 codons differently affect mRNA stability remains unclear. Besides, aberrant stalling of the ribosome induces ribosome quality control (RQC) and No-go decay. The relationship between the two co-translational mRNA decay pathways is not systematically analyzed. To precisely characterize the effects of 61 codons on mRNA stability, we developed a simplified reporter system that allows detection of the effect of every single codon on mRNA stability in zebrafish embryos. Using this system, we show that the effect of codons on mRNA stability is partially but significantly correlated with the translation elongation rate and tRNA abundance. Interestingly, the codon effect is still maintained in zebrafish embryos lacking Znf598, an essential mediator of RQC and NGD. Znf598-dependent NGD targets a particular type of ribosome stalling but has limited impact on endogenous mRNA stability. Our study thus defines two related co-translational mRNA decay pathways during animal development.

Transcription profiling of Zebrafish embryos investigating the effect of miR-430 microRNA on deadenylation and clearance of maternal mRNAs

Project description:MicroRNAs comprise 1-3% of all vertebrate genes, but their in vivo functions and mechanisms of action remain largely unknown. Zebrafish miR-430 is expressed at the onset of zygotic transcription and regulates morphogenesis during early development. Using a microarray approach and in vivo target validation, we find that miR-430 directly regulates several hundred target mRNAs. Targets are highly enriched for maternal mRNAs that accumulate in the absence of miR-430. We also show that miR-430 accelerates the deadenylation of target mRNAs. These results suggest that miR-430 facilitates the deadenylation and clearance of maternal mRNAs during early embryogenesis. Experiment Overall Design: As a first step towards the identification of miR-430 targets, we compared the rate of mRNA degradation in wild type and maternal-zygotic (MZ) dicer mutant embryos, which are deficient in miRNA processing. We found that the rate of degradation of a target mRNA with partial complementarity to miR-430 is significantly reduced in MZdicer mutants. Providing miR-430 duplexes to MZdicer mutants restores the rate of target decay. These results indicate that miR-430 enhances the decay of target mRNAs. Experiment Overall Design: To identify miR-430 in vivo targets, we compared the mRNA expression profile of embryos that were wild-type, MZdicer, or MZdicer rescued with miR-430 (MZdicer+miR-430). This analysis identified ~600 genes that were upregulated in MZdicer, but not in MZdicer+miR-430. Experiment Overall Design: We have also analyzed the expression profile of the genes in the array at three different time points, one maternal stage(16 cell), and two Zygotic stages 5 hours and 9 hours

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.

The Ccr4-Not complex monitors the translating ribosome for codon optimality

Project description:Control of messenger RNA (mRNA) decay rate is intimately connected to translation elongation, but the spatial coordination of these events is poorly understood. The Ccr4-Not complex initiates mRNA decay through deadenylation and activation of decapping. We used a combination of cryo–electron microscopy, ribosome profiling, and mRNA stability assays to examine the recruitment of Ccr4-Not to the ribosome via specific interaction of the Not5 subunit with the ribosomal E-site in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This interaction occurred when the ribosome lacked accommodated A-site transfer RNA, indicative of low codon optimality. Loss of the interaction resulted in the inability of the mRNA degradation machinery to sense codon optimality. Our findings elucidate a physical link between the Ccr4-Not complex and the ribosome and provide mechanistic insight into the coupling of decoding efficiency with mRNA stability.

Massively parallel reporter assay of 3’UTR sequences identifies in vivo rules for mRNA degradation

Project description:The stability of mRNAs is regulated by signals within their sequences, but a systematic and predictive understanding of the underlying sequence rules remains elusive. Here, we introduce UTR-Seq, a combination of massively parallel reporter assays and regression models, to survey the dynamics of tens-of-thousands of 3’UTR sequences during early zebrafish embryogenesis. UTR-Seq revealed two temporal degradation programs: a maternally encoded early-onset program and a late-onset program that accelerated degradation after zygotic genome activation. Three signals regulated early-onset rates: stabilizing poly-U and UUAG sequences, and destabilizing GC-rich signals. Three signals explained late-onset degradation: miR-430 seeds, AU-rich sequences and Pumilio recognition sites. Sequence based regression models translated 3’UTRs into their unique decay patterns, and predicted the in vivo impact of sequence signals on mRNA stability. Their application led to the successful design of artificial 3’UTRs that conferred specific mRNA dynamics. UTR-Seq provides a general strategy to uncover the rules of RNA cis-regulation.

Effects of ERG knockdown on HeLa cells mRNA stability

Project description:Control of mRNA levels is a fundamental aspect in the regulation of gene expression and is achieved through a balance between mRNA synthesis and decay. E-twenty-six-related gene (Erg) proteins are canonical transcription factors whose described functions are confined to the control of mRNA synthesis. Here, we report that ERG also regulates gene expression by affecting mRNA stability and identify the molecular mechanisms underlying this function. ERG is recruited to mRNAs via its interaction with the RNA-binding protein RBPMS and promotes mRNA decay by binding to CNOT2, a component of the CCR4 deadenylation complex. Transcriptome-wide mRNA stability analysis revealed that ERG controls the degradation of a subset of mRNAs highly connected to Aurora signaling, and whose decay during S-phase is necessary for mitotic progression. Our data indicate that control of gene expression by mammalian transcription factors may follow a more complex scheme than previously anticipated, integrating mRNA synthesis and degradation.

mRNA-Seq from control cells and two clones of Flp-In-T-REx-293 cells modified via CRISPR-Cas9 to knockout SMG7 in combination to knockdowns of control, SMG5, and SMG6

Project description:Mature mRNAs undergo quality control during translation that may lead to RNA degradation by triggering the nonsense mediated decay (NMD) pathway. Aberrant translation due to features such as the presence of a premature stop codon downstream on an exon-exon junction or an intron in the 3'UTR activates NMD. However, many of the features that lead to the activation of this pathway are unclear. UPF1, an RNA helicase, is the core NMD factor. UPF1 forms a multi-protein complex by recruiting a series of factors and other protein complexes in a process that depends on the UPF1 phosphorylation-dephosphorylation cycle. Among the factors recruited by UPF1, SMG5-SMG7 and SMG6 have critical importance in executing NMD. The SMG5-SMG7 heterodimer induces the exonucleolytic degradation of the mRNA, which depends on the recruitment of deadenylation factors. SMG6 has endonucleolytic activity and cleaves the targeted transcript close to the stop codon. The redundancy between the exonucleolytic and endonucleolytic paths to achieve degradation during NMD has been previously reported in the literature. To investigate the apparent redundancy between SMG5-SMG7 and SMG6 activity and to further understand the features that lead to the activation of NMD, we have generated two clones of SMG7 knockout human cells using CRISPR-Cas9. We generated mRNA-Sequencing data for control and both SMG7 KO clones with additional siRNA-mediated knockdown of Luciferase (Luc) as control, SMG5 or SMG6.
