Project description:The 3’ ends of almost all eukaryotic mRNAs are generated in an essential two-step processing reaction, endonucleolytic cleavage of an extended precursor followed by the addition of a poly(A) tail. By reconstituting the reaction from overproduced and purified proteins, we provide a minimal list of fourteen polypeptides essential and two stimulatory for RNA processing. In a reaction depending on the polyadenylation signal AAUAAA, the reconstituted system cleaves pre-mRNA at a single preferred site corresponding to the one used in vivo. Among the proteins, Cleavage Factor I stimulates cleavage but is not essential, consistent with its prominent role in alternative polyadenylation. RBBP6 is required, structural data showing it to contact and presumably activate the endonuclease CPSF73 through its DWNN domain. The C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II is dispensable. ATP, but not its hydrolysis, supports RNA cleavage by binding to the hClp1 subunit of cleavage factor II with submicromolar affinity.

Project description:Regulatory elements in the 3M-^R untranslated regions (UTRs) of eukaryotic mRNAs influence mRNA localization, translation, and stability. The length of these regions is determined by the location at which mRNAs are cleaved and polyadenylated. The use of alternative polyadenylation sites is common, and can be regulated in different situations. I present here a new method to identify cleavage and polyadenylation sites (CSs) at the genome-wide level. The approach is strand-specific, avoids RNA enzymatic modification steps that can introduce sequence-specific biases, and uses molecular barcodes to ensure that every identified CS originates from an individual RNA molecule. I applied to create the first comprehensive genome-wide map of polyadenylation sites in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, comprising the analysis of over two million individual mRNAs that defined 10,422 major CSs. CSs were identified for 90% of coding genes and 15% of non-coding RNAs. Alternative polyadenylation was prevalent in both groups, with 61% and 49% of all detected genes, respectively, displaying more than one CS. The specificity of the cleavage reaction was gene-specific, resulting in highly variable levels of heterogeneity in the length of the 3' UTRs. Finally, I show that for both coding and non-coding genes the most common regulatory motif associated with CSs in fission yeast is the canonical human AAUAAA sequence.

Project description:Termination of RNAPII transcription is associated with RNA 3â end formation. For coding genes, termination is initiated by the cleavage/polyadenylation machinery. In contrast, a majority of noncoding transcription events in S. cerevisiae do not rely on RNA cleavage for termination, but instead terminate via a pathway that requires the Nrd1-Nab3-Sen1 (NNS) complex. Here we show that the S. pombe ortholog of Nrd1, Seb1, does not function in NNS-like termination, but promotes polyadenylation site selection of coding and noncoding genes. We found that Seb1 associates with 3â end processing factors, is enriched at the 3â end of genes, and binds RNA motifs downstream of cleavage sites. Importantly, a deficiency in Seb1 resulted in widespread changes in 3â UTR length as a consequence of increased alternative polyadenylation. Given that Seb1 levels affected the recruitment of conserved 3â end processing factors, our findings indicate that the conserved RNA-binding protein Seb1 co-transcriptionally controls alternative polyadenylation.

Project description:Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) is the central component of the 3' processing machinery for polyadenylated mRNAs in metazoans: CPSF recognizes the polyadenylation signal AAUAAA, providing sequence specificity in both pre-mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation, and catalyzes pre-mRNA cleavage. Here we show that of the seven polypeptides that have been proposed to constitute CPSF, only four, CPSF160, CPSF30, hFip1 and WDR33, are necessary and sufficient to reconstitute a CPSF subcomplex active in AAUAAA-dependent polyadenylation, whereas CPSF100, CPSF73 and symplekin are dispensable. WDR33 is required for binding of reconstituted CPSF to AAUAAA-containing RNA and can be specifically UV-crosslinked to such RNAs, as can be CPSF30. Transcriptome-wide identification of WDR33 targets by PAR-CLIP shows that WDR33 specifically binds the AAUAAA signal in vivo in contrast to any of the five other CPSF subunits tested before. Thus, our data indicate that the CPSF subunit that is mainly responsible for recognizing the polyadenylation signal is WDR33 and not CPSF160, as suggested by previous studies.

Project description:Cleavage factor II (CF II) is a poorly characterized component of the multi-protein complex catalyzing 3' cleavage and polyadenylation of mammalian mRNA precursors. We have reconstituted CF II as a heterodimer of hPcf11 and hClp1. The heterodimer is active in partially reconstituted cleavage reactions, whereas hClp1 by itself is not. Pcf11 moderately stimulates the RNA 5' kinase activity of hClp1; the kinase activity is dispensable for RNA cleavage. CF II binds RNA with nanomolar affinity. Binding is mediated mostly by the two zinc fingers in the C-terminal region of hPcf11. RNA is bound without pronounced sequence-specificity, but extended G-rich sequences appear to be preferred. We discuss the possibility that CF II contributes to the recognition of cleavage/polyadenylation substrates through interaction with G-rich far-downstream sequence elements.

Project description:Cell fate transitions involve rapid changes of gene expression patterns and global chromatin remodeling, yet the underlying regulatory pathways remain incompletely understood. Here, we used transcription-factor induced reprogramming of somatic cells into pluripotent cells to screen for novel regulators of cell fate change. We identified the RNA processing factor Nudt21, a component of the pre-mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation complex, as a potent barrier to reprogramming. Importantly, suppression of Nudt21 not only enhanced the generation of induced pluripotent stem cells but also facilitated the conversion of fibroblasts into trophoblast stem cells and delayed the differentiation of myeloid precursor cells into macrophages, suggesting a broader role for Nudt21 in restricting cell fate change. Polyadenylation site sequencing (PAS-seq) revealed that Nudt21 directs differential polyadenylation of over 1,500 transcripts in cells acquiring pluripotency. While only a fraction of these transcripts changed expression at the protein level, this fraction was strongly enriched for chromatin regulators, including components of the PAF, polycomb, and trithorax complexes. Co-suppression analysis further suggests that these chromatin factors are largely responsible for Nudt21’s effect on reprogramming, providing a mechanistic basis for our observations. Collectively, our data uncover Nudt21 as a novel post-transcriptional regulator of mammalian cell fate and establish a direct, previously unappreciated link between alternative polyadenylation and chromatin signaling.

Project description:Pathogenic variants of the J-domain protein DNAJC12, a co-chaperone of Hsp70, cause parkinsonism, which seems associated with a defective interaction of DNAJC12 with tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), the rate limiting enzyme in dopamine synthesis. Here, we report the characterization of TH:DNAJC12 complex formation and show that DNAJC12 binding stabilizes TH and delays its time-dependent aggregation in an Hsp70-independent manner, while maintaining TH activity and regulatory inhibition by dopamine. Interestingly, although neither TH nor DNAJC12 alone significantly [MDT1] [AM2] activate Hsc70, the complex stimulates [AM3] its ATPase activity. Cryoelectron microscopy reveals two DNAJC12 monomers bound per TH tetramer, each embracing one of the two regulatory domain dimers, leaving all active sites available for substrate and dopamine interaction. Biochemical data confirm the key role of the DNAJC12 last eight residues in TH binding, explaining the molecular disease mechanism of C-terminal truncated DNAJC12 variants.

Project description:RNA unwinding by DExH-type helicases underlies most RNA metabolism and function. It remains unresolved if and how the basic unwinding reaction of helicases is regulated by auxiliary domains. We explored the interplay between the RecA and auxiliary domains of the RNA helicase maleless (MLE) from Drosophila, using a suite of structural and functional studies. We discovered that MLE exists in a dsRNA bound open conformation and the auxiliary dsRBD2 domain aligns the substrate RNA with the accessible helicase tunnel. In an ATP-dependent manner, dsRBD2 associates with the helicase module, leading to tunnel closure around ssRNA. Furthermore, our structures provide a rationale for blunt ended dsRNA unwinding and 3’-5’ translocation by MLE. Structure-based MLE mutations confirm the functional relevance of our model for RNA unwinding. Our findings contribute to our understanding of fundamental mechanics of auxiliary domains in DExH helicase MLE which serves as model for its human ortholog and potentially therapeutic target, DHX9/RHA.

Project description:The yeast mRNA export adaptor Yra1 binds the Pcf11 subunit of cleavage-polyadenylation factor CF1A linking export to 3'-end formation. We found a surprising consequence of this interaction is that Yra1 influences cleavage-polyadenylation. Yra1 competes with the CF1A subunit, Clp1, for binding to Pcf11, and excess Yra1 inhibits 3' processing in vitro. Release of Yra1 at the 3' ends of genes coincides with recruitment of Clp1, and depletion of Yra1 enhances Clp1 recruitment within some genes. These results suggest that CF1A is not necessarily recruited as a complete unit, but instead Clp1 can be incorporated co-transcriptionally in a process regulated by Yra1. Yra1 depletion causes widespread changes in poly(A) site choice particularly at sites where the efficiency element is divergently positioned. We propose that one way Yra1 modulates cleavage-polyadenylation is by influencing co-transcriptional assembly of the CF1A/B 3' processing factor. Key Words: Yra1, cleavage-polyadenylation, mRNA export, Pcf11, Clp1, Sub2, alternative polyadenylation mRNA poly (A) sites were mapped by sequencing 3' ends in WT and Yra1-depleted cells using a GAL1-YRA1 mutant.

Project description:The PAF complex (Paf1C) has been shown to regulate chromatin modifications, gene transcription, and PolII elongation. Here, we provide the first genome-wide analysis of chromatin occupancy by the entire PAF complex in mammalian cells. We show that Paf1C is recruited not only to promoters and gene bodies, but also to regions downstream of cleavage/polyadenylation (pA) sites at 3â ends, a profile that sharply contrasted with the yeast complex. Remarkably, our studies identified novel, subunit-specific links between Paf1C and regulation of alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) and upstream antisense transcription. Moreover, we found that depletion of Paf1C subunits also resulted in the accumulation of RNA polymerase II (PolII) over gene bodies, which coincided with APA. Depletion of specific Paf1C subunits leads to global loss of histone H2B ubiquitylation, but surprisingly, there is little impact of Paf1C depletion on other histone modifications, including the tri-methylation of histone H3 on lysines 4 and 36 (H3K4me3 and H3K36me3), previously associated with this complex. Our results provide surprising differences with yeast, while unifying observations that link Paf1C with PolII elongation and RNA processing, and suggest that Paf1C could play a role in protecting transcripts from premature cleavage by preventing PolII accumulation at TSS-proximal pA sites.
