Characterizing expression and processing of precursor and mature human tRNAs by hydro-tRNAseq and PAR-CLIP

ABSTRACT: The participation of transfer RNAs (tRNAs) in fundamental aspects of biology and disease necessitates an accurate, experimentally confirmed annotation of tRNA genes, and curation of precursor and mature tRNA sequences. This has been challenging, mainly because RNA secondary structure and nucleotide modifications, together with tRNA gene multiplicity, complicate sequencing and sequencing read mapping efforts. To address these issues, we developed hydro-tRNAseq, a method based on partial alkaline RNA hydrolysis that generates fragments amenable for sequencing. To identify transcribed tRNA genes, we further complemented this approach with Photoactivatable Crosslinking and Immunoprecipitation (PAR-CLIP) of SSB/La, a conserved protein involved in pre-tRNA processing. Our results show that approximately half of all predicted tRNA genes are transcribed in human cells. We also report predominant nucleotide modification sites, their order of introduction, and identify tRNA leader, trailer and intron sequences. By using complementary sequencing-based methodologies, we present a human tRNA atlas, and determine expression levels of mature and processing intermediates of tRNAs in human cells.

ALL-tRNAseq enables robust tRNA profiling in tissue samples

Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are small adaptor RNAs essential for mRNA translation. Alterations in the cellular tRNA population can directly affect mRNA decoding rates and translational efficiency during cancer development and progression. To evaluate changes in the composition of the tRNA pool, multiple sequencing approaches have been developed to overcome reverse transcription blocks caused by the stable structures of these molecules and their numerous base modifications. It remains however unclear whether current sequencing protocols faithfully capture tRNAs existing in cells or tissues. This is specifically challenging for clinical tissue samples that often present variable RNA qualities. For this reason, we developed ALL-tRNAseq, which combines the highly processive MarathonRT and RNA demethylation, for the robust assessment of tRNA expression, together with a randomized adapter ligation strategy prior to reverse transcription, to assess tRNA fragmentation levels in both cell lines and tissues. Incorporation of tRNA fragments not only informed on sample integrity, but also significantly improved tRNA profiling of tissue samples. Our data showed that our profiling strategy effectively improves classification of oncogenic signatures in glioblastoma and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma tissues, particularly for samples presenting higher levels of RNA fragmentation, further highlighting the utility of ALL-tRNAseq for translational research.

Comparison of mitochondrial tRNA abundance profiling in wild type and mutant mitochondrial RNA polymerase overexpression flies.

Project description:To investigate differential mitochondrial tRNA gene expression in wild type (WT) and mutant (E423P) mitochondrial RNA polymerase (POLRMT) overexpression flies, we performed Drsophila mitochondrial tRNA-seq according to the Hydro-tRNAseq method. tRNA-seq reads were subjected to 3' - adapter filtering , 3' - adapter trimming and quality control. The tRNAs expression levels were measured by tag count. For each tRNA sequence-based profile, the mapped reads number used to estimate the expression level of each tRNA. The tRNAs expression profiling was calculated based on uniquely mapped reads and including mapped reads, respectively. We found no difference in the relative abundance of mitochondrial individual tRNAs between WT and E423P overexpression flies.

tRNA quantification of five human cell lines by hydro-tRNAseq and small RNA-seq

Project description:We analyze whether tRNA quantifications based on small RNA-seq data are informative enough to distinguish between different human cell lines covering multiple tissue types. We therefore apply both small RNA-seq and Hydro-tRNAseq to HEK293 (kidney), HCT116 (colon), HeLa (cervix), MDA-MB-231 (breast), and BJ fibroblasts. First, the correlations between the two methods of identical samples and computational mapping pipeline range between 0.93 and 0.96 for all cell lines. tRNA quantifications from both protocols are compared and significantly higher Spearman correlations are obtained within matching samples versus mismatching cell lines. In consequence, we demonstrate that small RNA-seq quantifications of sample-specific tRNA profiles show a good agreement with conventional tRNA-seq.

High-resolution quantitative profiling of tRNA abundance and modification status in eukaryotes by mim-tRNAseq

Project description:Measurements of cellular tRNA abundance are hampered by pervasive blocks to cDNA synthesis at modified nucleosides and the extensive similarity among tRNA genes. We overcome these limitations with modification-induced misincorporation tRNA sequencing (mim-tRNAseq), which combines a workflow for full-length cDNA library construction from mature tRNA with a simple-to-use computational analysis toolkit. Our method accurately captures tRNA abundance and modification status in multiple eukaryotes and is applicable to any organism with a known genome.

Hydro-tRNAseq of human cell lines HACAT and HepG2

Project description:To quantify tRNA expression, we perform hydro-tRNA sequencing (Gogakos et al. 2017) in HACAT (keratinoytes) and HepG2 (liver) human cell lines. This study contains 6 samples. Three replicates for each of the five cell lines. This data complements our previously published data (GEO: GSE137834), which contained five additional cell lines from different tissues: HEK293 (kidney), HCT116 (colon), HeLa (cervix), MDA-MB-231 (breast), and BJ fibroblasts. Therefore, with these extra two cell lines, this constitutes a tissue-wide dataset of tRNA sequencing covering a total of seven human cell lines.
