Alternative polyadenylation alters protein dosage by switching between intronic and 3' UTR sites

ABSTRACT: Alternative polyadenylation (APA) creates distinct transcripts from the same gene by cleaving the pre-mRNA at poly(A) sites that can lie within the 3' UTR, introns, or exons. Most studies focus on APA within the 3' UTR, but here we show that CPSF6 insufficiency alters protein levels and causes a developmental syndrome by deregulating APA throughout the transcript. In neonatal humans and zebrafish larvae, CPSF6 insufficiency shifts poly(A) site usage between the 3'UTR and internal sites in a pathway-specific manner. Genes associated with neuronal function undergo mostly intronic APA, reducing their expression, while genes associated with heart and skeletal function mostly undergo 3' UTR APA and are upregulated. This suggests that, in healthy conditions, cells toggle between internal and 3'UTR APA to modulate protein expression.

Loss of CPSF6 causes developmental disease via bimodal changes in polyadenylation site usage and protein expression [Zebrafish]

Project description:Most pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) undergo extensive processing to create distinct transcripts from the same gene. One of these processes, alternative polyadenylation, involves over twenty proteins to bind and cleave the pre-mRNA at poly(A) sites that can lie within the 3' UTR, introns, or exons; this can modulate protein function, but the effect of choosing a site internal to the gene vs. within the 3' UTR remains unclear. Here we show that reduced expression of CPSF6, one of the proteins involved in site selection, derails development in both humans and zebrafish by causing a bidirectional shift in poly(A) site usage. CPSF6 insufficiency favors the use of intronic poly(A) sites in neuronal genes, reducing mRNA and protein abundance, but promotes 3' UTR site usage in cardiovascular and skeletal genes, upregulating mRNA and protein.These data thus provides a long-sought link between APA and gene expression and shows that poly(A) site selection influences development.

m6A in 5â untranslated regions promotes cap-independent translation of mRNA

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread internal RNA modification whose function is poorly understood. Here we report that m6A residues within the 5'UTR promote a novel form of cap-independent translation which is mediated through an interaction between m6A residues and the translation initiation factor, eIF3. We present eIF3a PAR-iCLIP data which demonstrate that eIF3 predominantly binds mRNAs within the 5'UTR. eIF3 binding sites are also in proximity to m6A residues within the 5'UTR of cellular mRNAs. Two replicates of eIF3a PAR-iCLIP in HEK293T cells.

Extensive alternative polyadenylation during zebrafish development

Project description:The post-transcriptional fate of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) is largely dictated by their 3' untranslated regions (3'UTRs), which are defined by cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) of pre-mRNAs. We used poly(A)-position profiling by sequencing (3P-Seq) to map poly(A) sites at eight developmental stages and tissues in the zebrafish. Analysis of over 60 million 3P-Seq reads substantially increased and improved existing 3'UTR annotations, resulting in confidently identified 3'UTRs for more than 78.79% of the annotated protein-coding genes in zebrafish. Most zebrafish genes undergo alternative CPA with more than a thousand genes using different dominant 3'UTRs at different stages. 3'UTRs tend to be shortest in the ovaries and longest in the brain. Isoforms with some of the shortest 3'UTRs are highly expressed in the ovary yet absent in the maternally contributed RNAs of the embryo, perhaps because their 3'UTRs are too short to accommodate a uridine-rich motif required for stability of the maternal mRNA. At two hours post-fertilization, thousands of unique poly(A) sites appear at locations lacking a typical polyadenylation signal, which suggests a wave of widespread cytoplasmic polyadenylation of mRNA degradation intermediates. Our insights into the identities, formation, and evolution of zebrafish 3'UTRs provide a resource for studying gene regulation during vertebrate development. 3P-Seq was used to map the 3' ends of protein-coding genes in the zebrafish genome

m6A RNA methylation mediates NOD1/NF-kB signaling activation in the liver of piglets challenged with lipopolysaccharide

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most abundant internal modification that widely participates in various immune and inflammatory responses, however, its regulatory mechanisms in the inflam-mation of liver induced by lipopolysaccharide in piglets remain largely unknown. In the present study, MeRIP-seq showed that 1166 and 1344 transcripts contained m6A methylation in control and LPS groups, respectively. The m6A methylation sites of these transcripts mainly distributes in the 5’ un-translated region (5’UTR), the coding sequence (CDS), and the 3’ untranslated region (3’UTR). In-terestingly, these genes were mostly enriched in the NF-κB signaling pathway, and LPS treatment significantly changed the m6A modification among NOD1, RIPK2, NFKBIA, NFKBIB and TNFAIP3 mRNAs.In conclusion, LPS activated the NOD1/NF-κB pathway at post-transcriptional regulation through changing m6A RNA methylation, and then promoted the overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines, ultimately resulting in liver inflammation and damage.

m6A in 5’ untranslated regions promotes cap-independent translation of mRNA

Project description:N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a widespread internal RNA modification whose function is poorly understood. Here we report that m6A residues within the 5'UTR promote a novel form of cap-independent translation which is mediated through an interaction between m6A residues and the translation initiation factor, eIF3. We performed m6A profiling in cells subjected to heat shock stress and observed increased 5'UTR methylation after heat shock. For these studies, we used single-nucleotide resolution m6A mapping (miCLIP), which enables the detection of m6A residues separately from m6Am residues. Thus, the goal of these experiments was to identify m6A residues which are increased in the 5'UTR after heat shock stress.

Identification of the TXNIP IRES and characterization of the impact of regulatory IRES trans-acting factors

Project description:Translation is a tightly regulated and is predominantly controlled at the level of its initiation. Initiation occurs in a cap-dependent manner. Under stress conditions when cap-dependent translation is hampered, internal ribosome entry sites (IRESes) allow for cap-independent translation of certain mRNAs. IRES-dependent translation is commonly regulated by RNA-interacting proteins, known as IRES trans-acting factors (ITAFs). In the present study, we searched for new IRESes by identifying 5’ untranslated regions (UTRs) bound by the ITAF hnRNPA1. Using a PAR-iCLIP approach, we found the mRNA of thioredoxin interacting protein (TXNIP) bound by hnRNPA1. Upon verification of an IRES element within the 5’UTR of TXNIP, we determined additional interacting proteins, which predominantly appeared to interact with the IRES-regulatory second half of the 5’UTR. Amongst these PTB, FBP3, and GEMIN5 emerged as functional ITAFs. Finally, we found that the TXNIP IRES-inhibitory effect of PTB was dominant over the activating effect of FBP3, while it succumbed to the stimulatory function of GEMIN5. In summary, we identified and characterized a novel IRES within the 5’UTR of TXNIP, which is regulated by the ITAFs PTB, FBP3, and GEMIN5.

Cleavage Factor Im as a key regulator of 3’ UTR length

Project description:In eukaryotes, the 3' ends of RNA polymerase II-generated transcripts are made in the majority of cases by site-specific endonucleolytic cleavage, followed by the addition of a poly(A) tail. By alternative polyadenylation, a gene can give rise to multiple mRNA isoforms that differ in the length of their 3' UTRs and hence in their susceptibility to post-transcriptional regulatory factors such as microRNAs. A series of recently conducted high-throughput studies of poly(A) site usage revealed an extensive tissue-specific control of 3’ UTR length and drastic changes in 3’ UTR length of mRNAs upon induction of proliferation in resting cells. To understand the dynamics of polyadenylation site usage, we recently identified binding sites of the major pre-mRNA 3’ end processing factors - cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF), cleavage stimulation factor (CstF), and cleavage factor Im (CF Im) - and mapped cleaved polyadenylation sites in HEK293 cells. Our present study extends previous findings on the role of CF Im in alternative polyadenylation and reveals that subunits of the CF Im complex generally control 3’ UTR length. More specifically, we demonstrate that the loss-of-function of CF Im68 and CF Im25 but not of CF Im59 leads to a transcriptome-wide increase of the use of proximal polyadenylation sites. 3' ends of transcripts were profiled by high-throughput sequencing in HEK 293 cells under normal conditions, and in HEK 293 cells depleted of 3' end processing factors CF Im25, CF Im59, and CF Im68.
