Arabidopsis MOS4-associated complex promotes microRNA biogenesis and pre-mRNA splicing [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: The evolutionarily conserved, putative RNA helicase MAC7 exists in both animals and plants. The human MAC7 homolog, Aquarius, is part of the spliceosome and plays a role in pre-mRNA splicing in vitro. In Arabidopsis, MAC7 was shown to be part of the MOS4-associated complex (MAC), which is required for plant defense and development. Here through RNA-seq analysis we discover that down-regulated genes in MAC subunit mutants are mostly involved in plant defense and stimulus response, confirming a role of MAC in the regulation of biotic and abiotic stress responses. We also discover global intron retention defects in mutants in three members of MAC, thus linking the functions of MAC to splicing in Arabidopsis. In addition, we show that mac7-1, a partial loss-of-function mutant in MAC7, and two other MAC subunit mutants, mac3a mac3b and prl1 prl2, exhibit reduced microRNA levels in general, indicating that MAC promotes microRNA biogenesis. The mac7-1 mutant shows reduced primary miRNA (pri-miRNA) levels without affecting MIR promoter activity or the degradation of pri-miRNA transcripts, implicating functions of MAC7 during transcription elongation or maturation of pri-miRNAs. As a nuclear protein, MAC7 is not localized in dicing bodies, but it affects the localization of HYL1 to dicing bodies. We propose that MAC acts to link MIR transcription to pri-miRNA processing.

A Role for the RNA-Binding Protein MOS2 in MicroRNA Maturation in Arabidopsis

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression. In Arabidopsis, mature miRNAs are processed from primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) by nuclear HYL1/SE/DCL1 complexes that form Dicing bodies (D-bodies). Here we report that a RNA-binding protein MOS2 bound to pri-miRNAs and was required for their efficient processing. MOS2 did not interact with HYL1, SE, and DCL1 and was not localized in D-bodies. Interestingly, in the absence of MOS2, the recruitment of pri-miRNAs by HYL1 was greatly reduced and the localization of HYL1 in D-bodies was compromised. These data suggest that MOS2 facilitates pri-miRNA processing through facilitating the recruitment of pri-miRNAs by the Dicing complexes.

A quantitative map of human primary microRNA processing sites

Project description:Maturation of canonical microRNA (miRNA) is initiated by DROSHA that cleaves the primary transcript (pri-miRNA). Over 1,800 miRNA loci are annotated in humans, but it remains largely unknown if and at which sites the pri-miRNAs are cleaved by DROSHA. Here we performed in vitro processing on a full set of human pri-miRNAs (miRBase v21) followed by sequencing. This comprehensive profiling enabled us to classify miRNAs based on DROSHA-dependence and map their cleavage sites with respective processing efficiency measures. Only 758 pri-miRNAs are confidently processed by DROSHA, while the majority may be non-canonical or false entries. Analyses of the DROSHA-dependent pri-miRNAs show key cis-elements for processing. We observe widespread alternative processing as well as unproductive cleavage events such as “nick” or “inverse” processing. SRSF3 is a broad-acting auxiliary factor modulating alternative processing and suppressing unproductive processing. The profiling data and methods developed in this study will allow systematic analyses of miRNA regulation.

PRMT1-mediated methylation of the Large Drosha Complex regulates microRNA biogenesis

Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is a tightly controlled multi-step process operated in the nucleus by the activity of the Large Drosha Complex (LDC). Through high resolution mass spectrometry (MS) analysis we discovered that the LDC is extensively methylated, with 82 distinct methylated sites associated to 16 out of 23 subunits of the LDC. The majority of these modifications occurs on arginine (R)- residues (61), leading to 86 methylation events, while 29 lysine (K)-methylation events occurs on 21 sites of the complex. Interestingly, the depletion and pharmacological inhibition of PRMT1 lead to a widespread alteration of the methylation state of the complex and induce global decrease of miRNA expression, as a consequence of the specific impairment of the pri-to-pre-miRNA processing step. In particular, we show that the reduced methylation of the ILF3 subunit of the complex is linked to its diminished binding to the target pri-miRNAs. Overall, our study uncovers a previously uncharacterized role of R-methylation in the regulation of the LDC activity in mammalian cells, thus effecting global miRNA levels.

Peptidyl-prolyl isomerase Cyclophilin 71 promotes SERRATE phase separation and miRNA processing in Arabidopsis [miRNA-Seq]

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in gene regulation. In Arabidopsis thaliana, mature miRNAs are processed from primary miRNA transcripts by Dicing complex, which contains DCL1, SE and HYL1 and forms nuclear dicing bodies (D-bodies) through SE phase separation. Here we report that Cyclophilin 71 (CYP71), a peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase), positively regulates miRNA processing. We show that CYP71 directly interacts with SE and enhances its phase separation, thereby promoting the formation of D-body and increasing the activity of Dicing complex. We further show that the PPIase activity is important for the function of CYP71 in miRNA production. Our findings reveal orchestration of miRNA processing by a cyclophilin protein and suggest the involvement of proline cis-trans isomerization, a structural mechanism, in SE phase separation and miRNA processing.

Spliceosome disassembly factors ILP1 and NTR1 promote microRNA biogenesis in Arabidopsis

Project description:A battery of spliceosome-associated proteins has been identified in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. The intron lariat spliceosome (ILS) complex is highly conserved among eukaryotes and its disassembly marks the end of a canonical splicing cycle. In this study, we show that two conserved disassembly factors of the ILS complex, ILP1 and NTR1, positively regulate microRNA biogenesis through facilitating transcriptional elongation in Arabidopsis. ILP1 and NTR1 form a stable complex and co-regulate alternative splicing of more than a hundred genes across the genome including the core circadian gene LHY and some pri-miRNAs. Dysfunction in either ILP1 or NTR1 result in reduced RNA polymerase II occupancy at elongated regions of MIR chromatins, without affecting MIR promoter activity, pri-miRNA decay and DCL1 processing. Our results provide insights into the molecular mechanisms of spliceosomal machineries in non-coding RNA regulation.

Microprocessor depends on hemin to recognize the apical loop of primary microRNA

Project description:Microprocessor, which consists of a ribonuclease III DROSHA and its cofactor DGCR8, initiates microRNA (miRNA) maturation by cleaving primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs). We recently demonstrated that the DGCR8 dimer recognizes the apical elements of pri-miRNAs, including the UGU motif, to accurately locate and orient Microprocessor on pri-miRNAs. However, the mechanism underlying the selective RNA binding remains unknown. In this study, we find that hemin, a ferric ion-containing porphyrin, enhances the specific interaction between the apical UGU motif and the DGCR8 dimer, allowing Microprocessor to achieve high efficiency and fidelity of pri-miRNA processing in vitro. Furthermore, by generating a DGCR8 mutant cell line and carrying out rescue experiments, we discover that hemin preferentially stimulates the expression of miRNAs possessing the UGU motif, thereby conferring differential regulation of miRNA maturation. Our findings reveal the molecular action mechanism of hemin in pri-miRNA processing and establish a novel function of hemin in inducing specific RNA-protein interaction.

RACK1 function in the miRNA pathway

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate plant development by post-transcriptional regulation of target genes. In Arabidopsis thaliana, DCL1 processes precursors (pri-miRNAs) to miRNA duplexes, which associate with AGO1. Additional proteins act in concert with DCL1 (e.g. HYL1 and SERRATE) or AGO1, respectively, to facilitate efficient and precise pri-miRNA processing and miRNA loading. In this study, we show that the accumulation of plant microRNAs depends on RECEPTOR FOR ACTIVATED C KINASE 1 (RACK1), a scaffold protein found in all higher eukaryotes. miRNA levels are reduced in rack1 mutants and our data suggest that RACK1 affects the microRNA pathway via several distinct mechanisms involving direct interactions with known microRNA factors: RACK1 ensures the accumulation and processing of some pri-miRNAs, directly interacts with SERRATE and is part of an AGO1 complex. As a result, mutations in RACK1 lead to misregulation of miRNA target genes, which is important for ABA responses and phyllotaxy. In conclusion, our study discovered complex functioning of RACK1 proteins in the Arabidopsis miRNA pathway, which are important for miRNA production and therefore plant development.
