NRS1, a nitrogen source-regulated microprotein, confers an alternative mechanism of G1/S transcriptional activation in budding yeast

ABSTRACT: Commitment to cell division at the end of G1 phase, termed Start in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is strongly influenced by nutrient availability. To identify newdominant activators of Start that might operate under different nutrient conditions, we screened a genome-wide ORF overexpression library for genes that bypass a Start arrest caused by absence of the G1 cyclin Cln3 and the transcriptional activator Bck2. We recovered a hypothetical gene YLR053c, renamed NRS1 for Nitrogen-responsive Start Regulator 1, which encodes a poorly characterized 108 amino acid microprotein. Endogenous NRS1 was nuclear-localized, restricted to poor nitrogen conditions, induced upon mTORC1 inhibition, and cell cycle-regulated with a peak at Start. NRS1 interacted genetically with SWI4 and SWI6, which encode the master G1/S transcription factor complex SBF. Correspondingly, NRS1 physically interacted with Swi4 and Swi6 and was localized to G1/S promoter DNA. NRS1 exhibited inherent transactivation activity and fusion of NRS1 to the SBF inhibitor Whi5 was sufficient to suppress other Start defects. NRS1 appears to be a recently evolved microprotein that rewires the G1/S transcriptional machinery under poor nutrient conditions.

MAVI1, an Endoplasmic Reticulum-localized Microprotein, Suppresses Antiviral Innate Immune Response by Targeting MAVS on Mitochondrion

Project description:Pattern recognition receptors (PRRs)-mediated innate immune responses are critical for host defense against microbial pathogens including RNA/DNA viruses. A growing number of coding genes and genes originally defined as non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are found to encode short peptides or proteins, named microproteins. However, the landscape of microproteins in responsive to virus infection and the functions of these microproteins remain uncharacterized. Here, we systematically identified microproteins, both from coding and non-coding genes, that are responsive to Vesicular Stomatitis Virus (VSV) infection. Among which, a highly conserved, endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane-localized microprotein, , MAVI1 (microprotein in antiviral immunity 1), was found to interact with mitochondrial localized MAVS protein, inhibiting the aggregation of MAVS and the activation of downstream type I interferon (IFN) signaling pathway. The critical role of MAVI1 was highlighted that viral infection was significantly attenuated and survival rate was significantly increased in Mavi1 knockout mice in vivo. A peptide inhibitor targeting the interaction between MAVI1 and MAVS is potent in activating the type I IFN signaling and defending viral infection both in vitro and in vivo. Our findings uncovered that microproteins could play critical roles in regulating antiviral innate immune responses via cross-organelle interaction, and targeting microproteins might represent a potential therapeutic avenue for treating viral infection in clinic.

Microprotein knockout in rescue cell lines and control conditions

Project description:RNA-seq sequencing was carried out to investigate which expression alterations were induced by treatment with sgRNAs targeting the sORFs/microproteins of interest. To test whether any of these changes could be reversed in the microprotein rescue-GFP fusion cells, transcriptional alterations of rescue and parental cells were compared.

Dual regulation of nitrogen metabolism by CodY and GlnR in Streptococcus mutans

Project description:CodY and GlnR are two major transcriptional regulators in nitrogen metabolism in Gram-positive bacteria. CodY regulates genes involved in the adaptive response to poor growth conditions, especially to nutrient limitation. GlnR controls nitrogen utilization according to the availability of nitrogen source. In this study we used microarray to investigate the regulatory roles that CodY and GlnR play in nitrogen metabolism in Streptococcus mutans.

Unannotated microprotein EMBOW switches WDR5 between epigenetic and mitotic roles during cell cycle

Project description:The highly conserved WD40-repeat protein WDR5 is part of multiple functional complexes both inside and outside the nucleus, interacting with the MLL/SET1 histone methyltransferases that catalyze histone H3 lysine 4 (H3K4) di- and tri-methylation (me2,3), and KIF2A, a member of the Kinesin-13 family of microtubule depolymerase. It is currently unclear whether, and how, the distribution of WDR5 between complexes is regulated. Here, we show that an unannotated microprotein dually encoded in the human SCRIB gene regulates the association of WDR5 with epigenetic and KIF2A complexes. We propose to name this alt-protein EMBOW, or microprotein that is the epigenetic to mitotic binder of WDR5. Loss of EMBOW decreases WDR5 interaction with KIF2A, displaces WDR5 from the spindle pole during G2/M phase, and shortens the spindle length, hence prolonging G2/M phase and delaying cell proliferation. On the other hand, loss of EMBOW increases WDR5 interaction with epigenetic complexes, including KMT2A/MLL1, and promotes WDR5 association with chromatin and binding to the target genes, hence increasing H3K4me3 levels of target genes. Together, these results implicate EMBOW as a regulator of WDR5 that switches it between epigenetic and mitotic regulatory roles during cell cycle, explaining how mammalian cells can temporally control the multifunctionality of WDR5.

Regulation of the ER stress response by a mitochondrial microprotein

Project description:Cellular homeostasis relies on having dedicated and coordinated responses to a variety of stresses. The accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a common stress that triggers a conserved pathway called the unfolded protein response (UPR) that mitigates damage, and dysregulation of UPR underlies several debilitating diseases. Here, we discover that a previously uncharacterized 54-amino acid microprotein PIGBOS regulates UPR. PIGBOS localizes to the mitochondrial outer membrane where it interacts with the ER protein CLCC1 at ER-mitochondria contact sites. Functional studies reveal that the loss of PIGBOS leads to heightened UPR and increased cell death. The characterization of PIGBOS reveals an unprecedented role for a mitochondrial protein, in this case a microprotein, in the regulation of UPR originating in the ER. This study demonstrates microproteins to be an unappreciated class of genes that are critical for inter-organelle communication, homeostasis, and cell survival.

The CDK Pho85 inhibits Whi7 Start repressor to promote cell cycle entry in budding yeast

Project description:Pho85 is a multifunctional CDK that signals to the cell when environmental conditions are favorable. It has been connected to cell cycle control, mainly in Start where it promotes the G1/S transition. Here we describe that the Start repressor Whi7 is a key target of Pho85 in the regulation of cell cycle entry. The phosphorylation of Whi7 by Pho85 inhibits the repressor and explains most of the contribution of the CDK in the activation of Start. Mechanistically, Pho85 down-regulates Whi7 protein levels through the control Whi7 protein stability and WHI7 gene transcription. Whi7 phosphorylation by Pho85 also restrains the intrinsic ability of Whi7 to associate with promoters. Furthermore, although Whi5 is the main Start repressor in normal cycling cells, in the absence of Pho85 Whi7 becomes the major repressor leading to G1 arrest. Overall, our results reveal a novel mechanism by which Pho85 promotes Start through the regulation of the Whi7 repressor at multiple levels, which may confer to Whi7 a functional specialization to connect the response to adverse conditions with the cell cycle control.
