Effect of Nop53 depletion on the compositional changes during pre-60S maturation

ABSTRACT: The eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis is a highly orchestrated multistep process that starts at the nucleolus with the transcription of pre-rRNAs 5S and 35S. The latter comprises the mature 18S, 5.8S and 25S rRNAs separated by internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) and externally flanked by the 5’ETS and 3’ETS. The 35S pre-rRNA undergoes several co- and post-transcriptional processing events, which will enable the pre-60S and pre-40S particles to take independent maturation routes. Hundreds of assembly factors (AF) are required, being recruited and released hierarchically, for the proper folding of the rRNAs and correct positioning of the ribosomal proteins. One of the most intricate events that have recently been described is the removal of the ITS2-containing structure called pre-60S foot, which happens in a step-wise manner. Nop53 is an essential 60S AF that binds close to the ITS2 and plays a fundamental role in recruiting the RNA exosome for the 7S pre-rRNA processing, thereby dismantling the foot structure. Here we characterize the impact of Nop53 binding to the pre-60S on the compositional changes that happen during 60S assembly. For this purpose, preribosomes were affinity-purified with TAP-tagged 60S AFs (Nop7, Erb1, Rsa4, Arx1, Nmd3, Yvh1, and Lsg1) representative of different maturation stages both in the presence and absence of Nop53. Nop7 particles were also coimmunoprecipitated in the presence of Nop53 mutants incapable of recruiting the exosome (Nop53∆1-71, Nop53∆48-98) to compare with Nop53 depletion. The isolated preribosomes were analyzed by label-free MS/MS-based quantitative proteomics, revealing early and late-stage specific effects of Nop53 depletion.

Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis is an elaborate process during which ribosomal proteins assemble with the pre-rRNA while it is being processed and folded. Hundreds of assembly factors (AF) are required and transiently recruited to assist the sequential remodeling events. One of the most intricate ones is the stepwise removal of the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2), between the 5.8S and 25S rRNAs, that constitutes together with five AFs the pre-60S 'foot'. In the transition from nucleolus to n ...[more]

Project description:Ribosome biogenesis is a highly complex process in eukaryotes, involving temporally and spatially regulated ribosomal protein (r-protein) binding and rRNA remodeling events in the nucleolus, nucleoplasm and cytoplasm. Hundreds of assembly factors (AFs), organized into sequential functional groups, facilitate and guide the maturation process into productive assembly branches in and across different cellular compartments. However, the precise mechanisms by which these AFs function are largely unknown. Here, we use cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), to characterize the structures of yeast nucleoplasmic pre-60S particles affinity-purified using the epitope-tagged AF Nog2. Our data pinpoint the locations and determine the structures of over 20 AFs, which are enriched in two areas, an arc region extending from the central protuberance (CP) to the polypeptide tunnel exit (PTE), and the domain including the internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) that separates 5.8S and 25S rRNAs. These structural data suggest that the arc-located factors might function to chaperone formation of RNA helices found in the active sites of the subunit, including helices from the CP, peptidyl-transferase center (PTC) and intersubunit bridge. In particular, two regulatory GTPases, Nog2 and Nog1, act as hub proteins to interact with multiple, distant AFs and functional rRNA elements, manifesting their critical roles in structural remodeling checkpoints and nuclear export. Moreover, our snapshots of compositionally and structurally different pre-60S intermediates provide essential mechanistic details for three major remodeling events before nuclear export: rotation of the 5S RNP, construction of the active center, and ITS2 removal. Therefore, our structures provide a framework to understand the molecular roles of diverse AFs, and potentially the atomic information therein constitutes a resource to generalize principles governing the elusive functions of nuclear RNA-binding proteins.
