Project description:SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus is one of the largest RNA viruses (26-32kb) and has emerged as a major threat to global public health. The resulting pandemic has caused global societal and economic disruptions. Here, we investigate the intramolecular and intermolecular RNA interactions of wildtype and a 382 deletion SARS-CoV-2 virus inside cells. We identified twelve potentially functional structural elements along the SARS-CoV-2 genome and observed that subgenomic viral RNA (sgRNAs) contains different structures that could be important for their functions using direct RNA sequencing. Proximity ligation sequencing experiments identified hundreds of intramolecular and intermolecular pair-wise interactions within the virus genome and between virus and host cellular RNAs. SARS-CoV-2 binds strongly to mitochondrial and nucleolar RNAs including COX1 and SNORD27, and contains 130 2’O-methylation sites along its genome. 2’O-methylation sites along the virus RNA are enriched in the UTRs and associated with increased pair-wise interactions. SARS-CoV-2 infection also results in a global decrease of 2’O-methylation sites on host mRNAs, suggesting that binding of SARS-CoV-2 to snoRNAs could be a pro-viral mechanism to sequester methylation machinery away from host RNAs to methylate the virus genome. Collectively, these studies deepen our understanding of the molecular basis of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenicity, its cellular host factors and provides a platform for targeting the virus.

Project description:Box C/D small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are a conserved class of RNA known for their role in guiding ribosomal RNA 2’-O-ribose methylation through base pairing with targeted sequences. Recently, C/D snoRNAs were also implicated in regulating the expression of non-ribosomal genes through different modes of binding. Large scale RNA-RNA interaction datasets detect many snoRNAs binding messenger RNA. However, these studies provide a narrow portrait of snoRNA targets forming under specific experimental conditions. To enable a more comprehensive study of C/D snoRNA interactions, we created snoGloBe, a human C/D snoRNA machine learning interaction predictor based on a gradient boosting classifier. SnoGloBe considers the target type, and position and sequence of the interactions, enabling it to outperform existing predictors. Interestingly, for specific snoRNAs, snoGloBe identifies strong enrichment of interactions near gene expression regulatory elements including splice sites. Abundance and splicing of predicted targets were altered upon the knockdown of their associated snoRNA. Strikingly, the predicted snoRNA interactions often overlap with the binding sites of functionally related RNA binding proteins, reinforcing their role in gene expression regulation. The interactions of snoRNAs are not randomly distributed but often accumulate in functionally related transcripts sharing common regulatory elements suggesting coordinated regulatory function. The wide scope of snoGloBe makes it an excellent tool for discovering viral RNA targets, which is evident from its capacity to identify snoRNAs targeting SARS-CoV-2 RNA, known to be heavily methylated. Overall, snoGloBe is capable of identifying experimentally validated binding sites and predicting novel sites with shared regulatory function.

Project description:We describe a new method enabling the global-scale mapping of RNA-RNA duplexes cross-linked in vivo, ‘LIGation of interacting RNA followed by high-throughput Sequencing’ (LIGR-Seq). Applying this method in human cells reveals a remarkable landscape of new RNA-RNA interactions involving all major classes of ncRNA, and mRNA. LIGR-Seq data reveal unexpected interactions between small nucleolar (sno)RNAs and mRNAs, including interactions involving the orphan C/D box snoRNA, SNORD83B, that control steady-state levels of its target mRNAs. LIGR-Seq thus represents a powerful approach for illuminating the functions of the myriad of uncharacterized RNAs that act via base-pairing interactions.

Project description:We evaluated the profile of miRNA and snoRNA expression in 5 synchronous CRC and matched normal colorectal tissues using the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA 1.0 array. A total of 24 miRNA differential expressed transcripts which represent 27 mature miRNAs, including an oncogenic miR-17-92a and oncosuppressive miR-143-145 cluster, and a global up-regulation of snoRNAs were revealed in cancer tissues compared with matched normal tissues. Global miRNA expression could distinguish synchronous cancer from normal mucosa. Our findings represent the first comprehensive miRNA and snoRNA expression signatures for synchronous CRC, which increase the understanding of the molecular basis of synchronous CRC, and firstly implicate that dysregulation of snoRNAs and miRNA clusters may present therapeutic targets for synchronous CRC.

Project description:Comparison of mRNA transcriptome after differential expression of U17 snoRNA. We hypothesiaed that if U17 snoRNA regulates cholesterol homeostasis by modulating the expression of target mRNAs, genes that are differentially expressed by the loss-of-function or gain-of-function of U17 snoRNA would be candidate U17 targets. Results revealed negative regulation of target genes by U17 snoRNA, in which increasing dosage of U17 snoRNA from U17 knockdown to WT to U17 overexpression lead to decreases in target levels. Total RNA were isolated by TRIzol reagent (Invitrogen) from WT, U17 snoRNA KD (ShSnhg3 stable clone), and U17 snoRNA OE (pMDβglobinU17b stable clone) cells grown in LPDS media for 24 hours.

Project description:Background: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are mid-size non-coding RNAs required for ribosomal RNA modification, implying a ubiquitous tissue distribution linked to ribosome synthesis. However, increasing numbers of studies identify extra-ribosomal roles of snoRNAs in modulating gene expression, suggesting more complex snoRNA abundance patterns. Therefore, there is a great need for mapping the snoRNome in different human tissues as the blueprint for snoRNA functions. Results: We used a low structure bias RNA-Seq approach to accurately quantify snoRNAs and compare them to the entire transcriptome in seven healthy human tissues (breast, ovary, prostate, testis, skeletal muscle, liver and brain). We identify 475 expressed snoRNAs categorized in two abundance classes that differ significantly in their function, conservation level and correlation with their host gene: 390 snoRNAs are uniformly expressed and 85 are enriched in the brain or reproductive tissues. Most tissue-enriched snoRNAs are embedded in lncRNAs and display strong correlation of abundance with them, whereas uniformly expressed snoRNAs are mostly embedded in protein-coding host genes and are mainly non- or anticorrelated with them. 59% of the non-correlated or anticorrelated protein-coding host gene/snoRNA pairs feature dual-initiation promoters, compared to only 16% of the correlated non-coding host gene/snoRNA pairs. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that snoRNAs are not a single homogeneous group of housekeeping genes but include highly regulated tissue-enriched RNAs. Indeed, our work indicates that the architecture of snoRNA host genes varies to uncouple the host and snoRNA expressions in order to meet the different snoRNA abundance levels and functional needs of human tissues.

Project description:Ribosome biosynthesis plays a crucial role in regulating protein translation and is essential for cell growth and development in physiological progress. The progression and recurrence of Pterygia mainly occur due to the abnormal proliferation and migration of stromal Pterygia fibroblasts. Small nucleolar RNA U3 (U3 snoRNA), harboring the atypical C/D boxes, is involved in 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) synthesis; however, the mechanism of U3 snoRNA in Pterygia remains unclear. Methods: Primary HCFs and HPFs were separated and cultured from fresh conjunctival grafts and Pterygia tissues. The PLKO.1 lentiviral system and CRISPR/Cas9 recombinant construct were, respectively, used to overexpress and silence U3 snoRNA in HPF and HCF cells for further specific phenotypes analysis. RNA-seq and TMT-labeled quantitative protein mass spectrometry were utilized to evaluate the effect of U3 snoRNA on mRNA transcripts and protein synthesis. Results: Reduced U3 snoRNA in Pterygia promotes HCF or HPF cells' proliferation, migration, and cell cycle but has no significant effect on apoptosis. U3 snoRNA modulates 18S rRNA synthesis through shearing precursor ribosomal RNA 47S rRNA at the 5′ external transcribed spacer (5′ ETS). Moreover, the altered U3 snoRNA causes mRNA and protein differential expression in HCF or HPF cells. Conclusion: The atypical U3 snoRNA regulates the translation of specific proteins to exert a suppressive function in Pterygia through modulating the 18S RNA synthesis. Here, we uncover a novel insight into U3 snoRNA biology in the development of Pterygia.
