A viral pan-end RNA element and host complex define a SARS-CoV-2 regulon

ABSTRACT: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative agent of COVID-19, generates multiple protein-coding, subgenomic RNAs (sgRNAs) from a longer genomic RNA, all bearing identical termini with poorly understood roles in regulating viral gene expression. Insulin and interferon-gamma, two host-derived, stress-related agents, and virus spike protein, induce binding of glutamyl-prolyl-tRNA synthetase (EPRS1), within an unconventional, tetra-aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase complex, to the sgRNA 3'end thereby enhancing sgRNA expression. We identify an EPRS1-binding sarbecoviral pan-end activating RNA (SPEAR) element in the 3'end of viral RNAs driving agonist-induction. Translation of another co-terminal 3'end feature, ORF10, is necessary for SPEAR-mediated induction, independent of Orf10 protein expression. The SPEAR element enhances viral programmed ribosomal frameshifting, thereby expanding its functionality. By co-opting noncanonical activities of a family of essential host proteins, the virus establishes a post-transcriptional regulon stimulating global viral RNA translation. A SPEAR-targeting strategy markedly reduces SARS-CoV-2 titer and kinetics, suggesting a pan-sarbecoviral therapeutic modality.

Comparison of endogenous tRNA expression levels from cells expressing and sgRNA from either a U6 or tRNA promoter

Project description:The goal of this study was to compare the endogenous tRNA expression levels from cells transduced with a lentiviral vector encopding Cas9 and an sgRNA from a U6 or a Glutamine tRNA promoter. Using high-throughput sequencing methods (Illumina Hi-Seq 2000) we show that endogenous tRNA expression levels are not perturbed by expression of an sgRNA from a human tRNA. tRNA expression profiles were generated from 2 different transduced polyconal cell lines.

McFarland2020 - Synthetase sequestration Model:a combined translation and tRNA charging cycle

Project description:The Synthetase Sequestration Model (SSM) is a simplified translation model that considers explicitly two main steps in the process of tRNA aminoacylation: first, the tRNA is bound by the aminoacyl tRNA synthetase, and in a second step, the amino acid is attached to the tRNA. The tRNA then participates in the translation reaction, becoming deacylated as a result. The tRNA exists in states bound, charged and uncharged. In the bound state, the tRNA is bound to the synthetase but uncharged, i.e., the tRNA is sequestered by the synthetase. The model predicts how the balance between the three different tRNA states (empty, bound and charged) changes depending on aminoacyl tRNA synthetase availability.

Isoleucyl-tRNA synthetase interactome analysis

Project description:Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) catalyze the ligation of each amino acid to the 3’ hydroxyl group of the cognate tRNA and thereby establish the genetic code for protein synthesis. AaRSs form a complicated network through assembly into a multi-synthetase complex (MSC), which is comprised of nine aaRSs (ArgRS, AspRS, GlnRS, GluProRS, IleRS, LeuRS, LysRS, and MetRS) and three auxiliary proteins (aaRS-interacting multifunctional proteins, p43, p38, and p18 or AIMP1, 2, and 3) in vertebrates. IleRS is one of the least characterized aaRSs in the MSC. It is a class 1a aaRS and has an UNE-I domain at its C-terminal end that is formed by tandem ~90 residue repeats. Systematic depletion and yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) analyses suggest that IleRS binds to the WHEP domain of GluProRS through its UNE-I domain. However, crosslinking and mass spectrometry (XL-MS) analyses revealed that IleRS interacts with ArgRS, LeuRS, and MetRS in the MSC. While such difference may be due to the different dynamic states of the MSC under various cellular environments, it remains to be resolved how IleRS associates with other components of the MSC. Therefore, we performed mass spectrometry analysis to study IleRS interactome using cells expressing wild-type IleRS, C-terminal-deleted IleRS, and the IleRS UNE-I domain alone.

Detecting mistranslation in yeast expressing tRNA variants

Project description:Mistranslation, the mis-incorporation of an amino acid not specified by the “standard” genetic code, occurs in all cells. tRNA variants that increase mistranslation arise spontaneously and engineered tRNAs can achieve mistranslation frequencies approaching 10% in yeast and bacteria. The goal of this study was to detect mistranslation from two different tRNA variants. The first variant, tRNA-Pro-G3:U70, has a mutation in its acceptor stem creating a G3:U70 base pair which is the key identity element for the alanine tRNA synthetase. This tRNA should be charged with alanine and mis-incorporate alanine at proline codons. The second variant, tRNA-Ser-UCU,G26A, is a serine tRNA with an arginine anticodon and a G26A secondary mutation to dampen function and prevent lethal levels of mistranslation. This tRNA should mis-incorporate serine at arginine codons.

METTL8 is required for 3-methylcytosine modification in human mitochondrial tRNAs

Project description:A subset of eukaryotic tRNAs is methylated in the anticodon loop to form the 3-methylcytosine (m3C) modification. In mammals, the number of tRNAs containing m3C has expanded to include mitochondrial (mt) tRNA-Ser-UGA and mt-tRNA-Thr-UGU. Whereas the enzymes catalyzing m3C formation in nuclear-encoded cytoplasmic tRNAs have been identified, the proteins responsible for m3C modification in mt-tRNAs are unknown. Here, we show that m3C formation in human mt-tRNAs is dependent upon the Methyltransferase-Like 8 (METTL8) enzyme. We find that METTL8 is a mitochondria-associated protein that interacts with mitochondrial seryl-tRNA synthetase along with mt-tRNAs containing m3C. Human cells deficient in METTL8 exhibit loss of m3C modification in mt-tRNAs but not nuclear-encoded tRNAs. Consistent with the mitochondrial import of METTL8, the formation of m3C in METTL8-deficient cells can be rescued by re-expression of wildtype METTL8 but not by a METTL8 variant lacking the N-terminal mitochondrial localization signal. Notably, METTL8-deficiency in human cells causes alterations in the native migration pattern of mt-tRNA-Ser-UGA suggesting a role for m3C in tRNA folding. Altogether, these findings demonstrate that METTL8 is required for m3C formation in mitochondrial tRNAs and uncover a potential role for m3C modification in mitochondrial tRNA structure.
