Arabidopsis and Spirodela Histone PTMs (In case it fits better, the title of the paper will be: “Investigating the transposon silencing landscape of the aquatic monocot Spirodela polyrhiza during clonal growth unveils atypical epigenetic and small RNA patterns”)

Project description:In flowering plants, silencing of transposable elements (TEs) is achieved by the installation of DNA methylation and histone modifications. 24-nt long small-interfering RNAs (siRNAs) guide the deposition of DNA methylation through RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), which can be maintained independently of siRNAs in coordination with H3K9me2. In most angiosperms, RdDM is ubiquitously expressed in vegetative and sexual reproductive tissues. Spirodela polyrhiza (Lemnaceae), represents an exception with low levels of DNA methylation, very low expression of RdDM and near absence of 24-nt siRNAs during its clonal vegetative propagation. Moreover, some components of RdDM, DNA methylation maintenance and RNA silencing are absent from the genome. By investigating the distribution of epigenetic marks on TEs, we show that Spirodela epigenome is shaped by the loss of DNA methylation and H3K9me2 as TEs decay. Nonetheless, such abundant TE remnants remain silenced and marked by H3K9me1. In contrast, scarce, relatively intact TEs display high levels of DNA methylation, H3K9me2 and siRNAs whose patterns resemble those of TEs subjected to RdDM in other angiosperms. Furthermore, despite the absence of DCL2 in duckweeds, Spirodela can produce 22-nt siRNAs, not only from TEs, but from diverse sources of double-stranded (ds)RNA. Our data suggests that RdDM might still be functional during vegetative clonal growth, albeit tissue or developmentally regulated, and highlights the use of alternative models to further understand and explore the diversity of silencing pathways in plants.

A nuclear RNA export factor variant licenses piRNA-guided heterochromatin formation

Project description:Small RNA silencing pathways protect genome integrity in part through establishing heterochromatin at transposon loci. In animals, this process requires piRNA-guided targeting of nuclear PIWI proteins to nascent transcripts. The molecular events contributing to heterochromatin formation upon PIWI binding to nascent RNA, a transient molecule at chromatin, are unknown. Here, we identify SFINX, a protein complex that is required for Piwi-mediated co-transcriptional silencing in Drosophila. It consists of Nxf2—a variant of the nuclear RNA export factor Nxf1/Tap, the mRNA export co-factor Nxt1/p15, and the Piwi-associated protein Panoramix. In the absence of Nxf2, Panoramix is targeted for degradation and piRNA-loaded Piwi is unable to establish heterochromatin. Consequently, nxf2 mutants exhibit severe transposon de-repression and are sterile. We show that within SFINX, Panoramix connects to the heterochromatin machinery while Nxf2 enables target silencing via nascent RNA. Thus, the Nxf2-Nxt1 heterodimer—despite having originated from core mRNA export machinery—has been repurposed for heterochromatin formation. Our data establish an unexpected link between nuclear small RNA biology and NXF-variants, which are widespread in animal lineages, but mostly lack ascribed functions.

A heterochromatin-dependent transcription machinery drives piRNA expression

Project description:Nuclear small RNA pathways safeguard genome integrity by establishing transcription-repressing heterochromatin at transposable elements. This inevitably also targets the transposon-rich source loci of the small RNAs themselves. How small RNA source loci are efficiently transcribed while transposon promoters are potently silenced, is not understood. Here, we show that transcription of Drosophila piRNA clusters—small RNA source loci in animal gonads—is enforced through RNA Polymerase II pre-initiation complex formation within repressive heterochromatin. This is accomplished through the TFIIA-L paralog Moonshiner, which is recruited to piRNA clusters via the Heterochromatin Protein-1 variant Rhino. Moonshiner triggers transcription initiation within piRNA clusters by recruiting the TATA box-binding protein (TBP)-related factor TRF2, an animal TFIID core variant. Thus, transcription of heterochromatic small RNA source loci relies on direct recruitment of the core transcriptional machinery to DNA via histone marks rather than sequence motifs, a concept that we argue is a recurring theme in evolution.

The splicing co-factor Barricade/Tat-SF1, is required for cell cycle and lineage progression in Drosophila neural stem cells.

Project description:Stem cells need to balance self-renewal and differentiation for correct tissue development and homeostasis. Defects in this balance can lead to developmental defects or tumor formation. In recent years, mRNA splicing has emerged as one important mechanism regulating cell fate decisions. Here we address the role of the evolutionary conserved splicing co-factor Barricade (Barc)/CUS2/Tat-SF1 in Drosophila neural stem cell (neuroblast) lineage formation. We show that Barc is required for the generation of neurons during Drosophila brain development by ensuring correct neural progenitor proliferation and differentiation. Barc associates with components of the U2 small nuclear ribonucleic proteins (snRNP), and its depletion causes alternative splicing in form of intron retention in a subset of genes. Using bioinformatics analysis and a cell culture based splicing assay, we found that Barc dependent introns share three major traits: they are short, GC rich and have weak 3’ splice sites. Our results show that Barc, together with the U2snRNP, plays an important role in regulating neural stem cell lineage progression during brain development and facilitates correct splicing of a subset of introns.

A genome-wide screen identifies silencers with distinct chromatin properties and mechanisms of repression

Project description:Differential gene transcription enables development and homeostasis in all animals and is regulated by two major classes of distal cis-regulatory DNA elements (CREs), enhancers and silencers. While enhancers have been thoroughly characterized, the properties and mechansisms of silencers remain largely unknown. By an unbiased genome-wide functional screen in Drosophila melanogaster S2 cells, we discover a class of silencers that bind one of three transcription factors (TFs) and are generally not included in chromatin-defined CRE catalogs, as they mostly lack detectable DNA accessibility. The silencer-binding TF CG11247, which we term Saft, safeguards cell fate decisions in vivo and functions via a highly-conserved domain we term ZAC and the corepressor G9a, independently of G9a’s H3K9-methyltransferase activity. Overall, our identification of silencers with unexpected properties and mechanisms has important implications for the understanding and future study of repressive CREs, as well as the functional annotation of animal genomes.

Target RNA recognition drives PIWI* complex assembly for transposon silencing

Project description:PIWI clade Argonaute proteins and their associated piRNAs are essential guardians of genome integrity, silencing transposable elements through distinct nuclear and cytoplasmic pathways. Nuclear PIWI proteins direct heterochromatin formation to repress transposon transcription, while cytoplasmic PIWIs cleave transposon transcripts to initiate piRNA amplification. Both processes rely on target RNA recognition by PIWI–piRNA complexes, yet how this recognition leads to pathway-specific effector recruitment has remained unclear. Here, we show that target engagement triggers the formation of conserved PIWI* complexes—comprising a PIWI protein, a piRNA–target RNA duplex, a GTSF-family protein, and Maelstrom—that serve as molecular platforms to recruit downstream effectors. In Drosophila, nuclear Piwi* engages the SFiNX complex to induce transcriptional silencing, while cytoplasmic Aubergine* complexes recruit the helicase Spindle-E to promote piRNA biogenesis. Evolutionary analysis reveals that PIWI* complex formation is deeply conserved across metazoans, uncovering an ancient mechanism that couples small RNA-guided target recognition to effector function. These findings define a unifying molecular principle for piRNA-mediated silencing across cellular compartments.

A heterochromatin specific RNA export pathway facilitates piRNA production

Project description:PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), a class of small RNAs that guide transposon silencing in animals, are processed in the cytoplasm from RNA Polymerase II transcripts. How piRNA precursors, which often lack RNA maturation signatures and thereby violate quality control checkpoints, achieve nuclear export is unknown. Here, we uncover a germline-specific RNA export pathway in Drosophila, that escorts piRNA precursors from their heterochromatic origins to nuage, the cytoplasmic piRNA processing centres. This pathway connects canonical nuclear export factors—the RNA helicase UAP56, the NXF cofactor Nxt1/p15, and the exportin Crm1/Xpo1—with Nxf3, a variant of the mRNA exporter Nxf1/Tap. Nxf3 recruitment to nascent piRNA precursors occurs via the heterochromatin protein 1-variant Rhino and CG13741/Bootlegger, a new piRNA pathway factor, thereby making piRNA precursor export independent of RNA processing events. Thus, similar to retroviral hijacking of cellular export factors, piRNA precursor export evolved to bend canonical gene expression rules through bypassing nuclear RNA surveillance mechanisms.
