Fly RBPome - Early embryogenesis is characterized by the maternal to zygotic transition (MTZ), in which maternally deposited messenger RNAs are translated and subsequently degraded while zygotic transcription begins

ABSTRACT: Early embryogenesis is characterized by the maternal to zygotic transition (MTZ), in which maternally deposited messenger RNAs are translated and subsequently degraded while zygotic transcription begins. Posttranscriptional gene regulation by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is a dominant force controlling pre-zygotic gene expression. Here we describe the first in vivo mRNA-bound proteome in early Drosophila melanogaster embryos. mRNA interactome capture using conventional (254nm) and photoactivatable ribonucleoside-enhanced UV-crosslinking (365nm) was applied to detect RBPs bound to maternal and early zygotic polydenylated transcripts within the first two hours of embryogenesis. We identified a high confidence set of 476 putative RBPs and confirmed RNA-binding activity for most of the tested candidates. The majority of the identified proteins in the early fly mRNA interactome were known RBPs, harboring canonical RBPs features. Nearly hundred of the identified proteins were previously not known to bind RNA. Interestingly, mRNAs encoding RBPs and TFs exhibit time specific expression modules, in which RBPs dominate the first hours of embryonic development. Using fly-FISH data, we could show enriched RBP localization in the posterior embryo during these first hours of fly embryogenesis, suggesting general importance germ cell maturation.

Dynamic RNA-protein interactions underlie the zebrafish maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:During the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), transcriptionally silent embryos rely on post-transcriptional regulation of maternal mRNAs until zygotic genome activation (ZGA). RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are important regulators of post-transcriptional RNA processing events, yet their identities and functions during developmental transitions in vertebrates remain largely unexplored. Using mRNA interactome capture, we identified 227 RBPs in zebrafish embryos before and during ZGA, hereby named the zebrafish MZT mRNAbound proteome. This protein constellation consists of many conserved RBPs, with additional embryo- and stage-specific mRNA interactors that likely reflect the dynamics of RNA-protein interactions during MZT. The enrichment of numerous splicing factors like hnRNP proteins before ZGA was surprising, because maternal mRNAs were found to be fully spliced. To address potentially unique roles of RBPs in embryogenesis, we focused on hnRNP A1. iCLIP and subsequent mRNA reporter assays revealed a function for hnRNP A1 in the regulation of poly(A) tail length and translation of maternal mRNAs through sequence-specific association with 3’UTRs before ZGA. Comparison of iCLIP data from two developmental stages revealed that hnRNP A1 dissociates from maternal mRNAs at ZGA and instead regulates the nuclear processing of pri-miR-430 transcripts, which we validated experimentally. The shift from cytoplasmic to nuclear RNA targets was accompanied by a dramatic translocation of hnRNP A1 and other pre-mRNA splicing factors to the nucleus in a transcription-dependent manner. Thus, our study identifies global changes in RNA-protein interactions during vertebrate MZT and shows that hnRNP A1 RNA-binding activities are spatially and temporally coordinated to regulate RNA metabolism during early development.

The mRNA-bound proteome of the early fly embryo

Project description:Early embryogenesis is characterized by the maternal to zygotic transition (MZT), in which maternally deposited messenger RNAs are degraded while zygotic transcription begins. Before the MZT, post-transcriptional gene regulation by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is the dominant force in embryo patterning. We used two mRNA interactome capture methods to identify RBPs bound to polyadenylated transcripts within the first two hours of embryogenesis. We identified a high-confidence set of 476 putative RBPs and confirmed RNA-binding activities for most of 24 tested candidates. Most proteins in the interactome are known RBPs or harbor canonical RBP features, but 99 were previously characterized as DNA-binding transcription factors (TFs), signaling proteins, etc., and were not known to bind RNA. mRNA-bound RBPs and TFs exhibit distinct expression dynamics, in which the newly identified RBPs dominate the first two hours of embryonic development. In situ hybridization data from existing databases showed that RNAs encoding RBPs are enriched in posterior regions of the early embryo, suggesting their general importance in posterior patterning and germ cell maturation.

Transcriptome analysis of wild-type and maternal zygotic double mutant of nup85;nup133 zebrafish embryos during early development

Project description:To study the function of zebrafish nuclear pores during early embryogenesis, we generated maternal zygotic double mutant of nup85;nup133 (MZnup85;nup133) using CRISPR/Cas9 and report the transcriptome-wide changes in comparison to wild-type (WT) embryos. Our analysis reveals a dramatic delay of maternal mRNA degradation and zygotic genome activation in MZnup85;nup133 embryos during maternal-to-zygotic transition.

A single-cell map of maternal and zygotic mRNA dynamics during cell-type specification in zebrafish embryos [scSLAM-seq]

Project description:During early embryogenesis, embryos undergo a massive degradation of maternally inherited mRNAs and produce new zygotic transcripts. This maternal-to-zygotic transition requires a tight interplay of mRNA transcription and degradation, but distinguishing their unique contributions remains a challenge. Here, we dissect gene regulation during the zebrafish maternal-to-zygotic transition by combining single-cell RNA-sequencing with RNA metabolic labeling and nucleotide conversion within zebrafish embryos. We decompose single-cell transcriptomes into their new (zygotic) and old (maternal) mRNA components, and elicit critical information on gene regulation as it unfolds over both time and space. We show that most cell-type restricted expression arises by zygotic transcription, but distinguish a specific role for maternal transcripts in defining germ-cell and enveloping-layer identity, two earliest specified cell identities. We recover the underlying replacement between maternal and zygotic copies of embryonic genes with a relatively constant overall mRNA level, and associate a fast replacement with genes that has a restricted zygotic expression in either cell-type or time. Our study provides a valuable resource to investigate maternal and zygotic transcriptomes and reveals post-transcriptional events that control gene regulation during early embryogenesis.

Slam-seq reveals that miR-430 regulates zygotic mRNA during zebrafish embryogenesis [titration_data]

Project description:Background: Early embryonic developmental programs are guided by the coordinated interplay between maternally inherited and zygotically manufactured RNAs and proteins. Although these processes happen concomitantly and affecting gene function during this period is bound to affect both pools of mRNAs, it has been challenging to study their expression dynamics separately. Results: By employing Slam-seq, a nascent mRNA labeling transcriptomic approach, in a developmental time series we observe that over half of the early zebrafish embryo transcriptome consists of maternal-zygotic genes, emphasizing their pivotal role in early embryogenesis. We provide an hourly resolution of de novo transcriptional waves and follow nascent mRNA trajectories, finding that most de novo transcriptional events are stable throughout this period. Additionally, by blocking microRNA430 function, a key post-transcriptional regulator during zebrafish embryogenesis, we directly show that it destabilizes hundreds of de novo transcribed mRNAs from pure zygotic as well as maternal-zygotic genes. This unveils a novel miR-430 function during embryogenesis, fine-tuning zygotic gene expression, which highlights that Slam-seq can be used to disentangle transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA levels. Conclusion: Such valuable insights into zebrafish early embryo transcriptome dynamics emphasize the significance of post-transcriptional regulators in zygotic genome activation. These findings pave the way for future investigations into the coordinated interplay between transcriptional and post-transcriptional landscapes required for the establishment of animal cell identities and functions.

The F-box protein Bard (CG14317) targets the Smaug RNA-binding protein for destruction during the Drosophila maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:During the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), which encompasses the earliest stages of animal embryogenesis, a subset of maternally supplied gene products is cleared, thus permitting activation of zygotic gene expression. In the Drosophila melanogaster embryo, the RNA-binding protein Smaug plays an essential role in progression through the MZT by regulating the translational repression and degradation of a large number of maternal mRNA species. The Smaug protein itself is rapidly cleared at the end of the MZT by the Skp/Cullin/F-box (SCF) E3-ligase complex; clearance of Smaug requires zygotic transcription. Here, we show that an F-box protein, which we name Bard (encoded by CG14317), is required for degradation of Smaug. Bard is expressed zygotically and physically interacts with Smaug at the end of the MZT, coincident with binding of the maternal SCF proteins, SkpA and Cullin1, and with degradation of Smaug. We show that shRNA-mediated knock-down of Bard or deletion of the bard gene in the early embryo results in stabilization of Smaug protein, a phenotype that is rescued by transgenes expressing Bard .

Nanog, SoxB1 and Pou5f1/Oct4 regulate widespread zygotic gene activation during the maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:Upon fertilization, maternal factors direct development in a transcriptionally silent embryo. At the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), a universal step in animal development, unknown maternal factors trigger zygotic genome activation (ZGA). In zebrafish, ZGA is required for gastrulation and clearance of maternal mRNAs, which is achieved in part by the conserved microRNA miR-430. However, the precise factors that activate the zygotic program remain largely unknown. Here we show that Nanog, Pou5f1 and SoxB1 are required for genome activation in zebrafish. We identified several hundred genes directly activated by maternal factors, thus constituting the first wave of zygotic transcription in zebrafish. Ribosome profiling in the pre-MZT embryo revealed that nanog, sox19b and pou5f1 are the most highly translated transcription factor mRNAs. Combined loss of function for Nanog, SoxB1 and Pou5f1 resulted in developmental arrest prior to gastrulation, and a failure to activate >75% of zygotic genes. Furthermore, we found that Nanog binds the miR-430 locus and together with Pou5f1 and SoxB1 initiate miR-430 expression and activity. Our results demonstrate that maternal Nanog, Pou5f1 and SoxB1 are required to initiate the zygotic developmental program and in turn trigger the clearance of the maternal program by activating miR-430 expression.
