Project description:Small RNAs, including piRNAs, miRNAs and endogenous siRNAs, bind Argonaute proteins to form RNA-silencing complexes that target coding genes, transposons and aberrant RNAs. To assess the requirements for endogenous siRNA formation and activity in C. elegans, we developed a GFP-based sensor for the endogenous siRNA 22G siR-1, one of a set of abundant siRNAs processed from a precursor RNA mapping to the X chromosome, the X-cluster. Silencing of the sensor is also dependent on the partially complementary, unlinked 26G siR-O7 siRNA. We show that 26G siR-O7 acts in trans to initiate 22G siRNA formation from the X-cluster. The presence of several mispairs between 26G siR-O7 and the X-cluster mRNA, as well as mutagenesis of the siRNA sensor, indicates that siRNA target recognition is permissive to a degree of mispairing. From a candidate reverse genetic screen, we identified several factors required for 22G siR-1 activity, including the Argonaute ergo-1 and the 3' methyltransferase henn-1. Quantitative RT-PCR of small RNAs in a henn-1 mutant and deep sequencing of methylated small RNAs indicate that siRNAs and piRNAs that associate with PIWI clade Argonautes are methylated by HENN-1, while siRNAs and miRNAs that associate with non-PIWI clade Argonautes are not. Thus, PIWI-class Argonaute proteins are specifically adapted to associate with methylated small RNAs in C. elegans.

Project description:To determine if an endogenous 22G siRNA sensor transgene is subject to siRNA amplification, small RNAs were deep sequenced from the sensor and from a control transgene that is identical to the sensor but lacks an siRNA target site. Small RNAs were isolated from synchronized young adult C. elegans and subjected to deep sequencing.

Project description:In the Caenorhabditis elegans germline, thousands of mRNAs are concomitantly expressed with antisense 22G-RNAs, which are loaded into the Argonaute CSR-1. Despite their essential functions for animal fertility and embryonic development, how CSR-1 22G-RNAs are produced remains unknown. Here, we show that CSR-1 slicer activity is primarily involved in triggering the synthesis of small RNAs on the coding sequences of germline mRNAs and post-transcriptionally regulates a fraction of targets. CSR-1-cleaved mRNAs prime the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, EGO-1, to synthesize 22G-RNAs in phase with ribosome translation in the cytoplasm, in contrast to other 22G-RNAs mostly synthesized in germ granules. Moreover, codon optimality and efficient translation antagonize CSR-1 slicing and 22G-RNAs biogenesis. We propose that codon usage differences encoded into mRNA sequences might be a conserved strategy in eukaryotes to regulate small RNA biogenesis and Argonaute targeting

Project description:To explore the roles of piRNAs and WAGO-class 22G-RNAs in regulating gene expression and transposon silencing in Caenorhabditis elegans, we used RNA-seq to assess changes in small RNA and mRNA levels in prg-1 and mut-16 mutants, which disable the piRNA and WAGO-class 22G-RNA pathways respectively. We identified numerous roles for piRNAs and WAGO-class 22G-RNAs in regulating germline genes, including transposons, histones, and spermatogenic and oogenic transcripts.

Project description:Biomolecular condensates, such as germ granules, organize RNA pathways critical for fertility and genome regulation. Yet, the protein composition and functional specialization of these condensates remain poorly defined. Here, we applied TurboID proximity labeling to the Caenorhabditis elegans germ granule protein SIMR-1, integrating mass spectrometry with genetic screening, CRISPR-based tagging, and small RNA sequencing. This systematic approach identified several previously uncharacterized germ granule proteins that are required for fertility, germline immortality, exogenous RNAi, and transgenerational inheritance. Small RNA sequencing of 21 mutants revealed broad and class-specific defects in siRNA and miRNA biogenesis, with distinct factors required for amplification of WAGO-class 22G-RNAs, CSR-class 22G-RNAs, or histone-directed small RNAs. Among these, we identified PINT-1, a highly disordered protein that directly interacts with and is recruited to germ granules by the PIWI Argonaute PRG-1. PINT-1 is required for piRNA-dependent and -independent secondary siRNA biogenesis and germline development. Comparative genomics revealed that PINT-1 has co-evolved with PRG-1 across nematodes, with a conserved structured N-terminus and a rapidly diverging repeat-rich intrinsically disordered region. Together, our findings expand the germ granule proteome and reveal how distinct condensate components contribute to specialized functions within the small RNA pathways, while highlighting an evolutionarily co-adapted PIWI interactor critical for siRNA biogenesis.

Project description:Non-coding small RNAs (sRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression with well-established roles in development and anti-viral defense. However, their role in antibacterial immunity is not well understood. Here, we identify a role for an endogenous small interfering RNA (siRNA) pathway in repressing innate immunity in Caenorhabditis elegans. We show that genes required for the biogenesis or function of WAGO Argonaute-associated siRNAs, called 22G-RNAs, function in a common genetic pathway with the immune-suppressive transcription elongation and splicing factor TCER-1. Loss of tcer-1 leads to reduced levels of 22G-RNAs from a subset of WAGO targets, while mutations in several WAGO 22G-RNA pathway genes phenocopies the enhanced immune-resistance of tcer-1 mutants, indicating that TCER-1 and the WAGO 22G-RNA pathway function within a shared regulatory module to limit antibacterial immunity. However, rather than mediating widespread gene silencing, this regulatory module targets a restricted set of potential immune-relevant effectors, including scrm-4, encoding a phospholipid translocase that promotes antibacterial resistance.

Moreover, differences in germline mRNA codon optimality and ribosome occupancy antagonistically affect the abundance of CSR-1 22G-RNAs and the stability of their mRNA targets. We propose that codon usage differences encoded into mRNA sequences might be a conserved strategy adopted in eukaryotes to regulate small RNA biogenesis and Argonaute targeting.
