Project description:The signal recognition particle (SRP) enables cotranslational delivery of proteins for translocation into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), but its full in vivo role remains incompletely explored. We combined rapid auxin-induced SRP degradation with proximity-specific ribosome profiling to define SRP’s in vivo function in yeast. Despite the classic view that SRP recognizes amino-terminal signal sequences, we show that SRP was generally essential for targeting transmembrane domains regardless of their position relative to the amino-terminus. By contrast, many proteins containing cleavable amino-terminal signal peptides were efficiently cotranslationally targeted in SRP’s absence. We also reveal an unanticipated consequence of SRP loss: Transcripts normally targeted to the ER were mistargeted to mitochondria, leading to mitochondrial defects. These results elucidate SRP’s essential roles in maintaining the efficiency and specificity of protein targeting.

Project description:Cotranslational targeting into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) by the Signal Recognition Particle (SRP) is a key event determining polypeptide fate in eukaryotic cells. Here, we globally define the principles and mechanisms of SRP binding and ER targeting in vivo. Cotranslational targeting through SRP is the dominant route into the ER for all secretory proteins, regardless of targeting signal characteristics. Cytosolic SRP functions in a pioneer translation round that builds a membrane-resident mRNAs pool, explaining how low SRP levels suffice for the secretory load. SRP does not induce an elongation arrest; consequently, kinetic competition between targeting and translation elongation dictates which substrates are translocated post-translationally. Unexpectedly, SRP binds most secretory ribosomal complexes before targeting signals are synthesized. We show non-coding mRNA elements can promote signal-independent SRP pre-recruitment. Our study defines the complex kinetic interplay between elongation and determinants in the polypeptide and mRNA modulating SRP-substrate selection and membrane targeting in vivo. Ribosome profiling (RiboSeq) and RNA-seq of subcellular fractions of ribosomes. Soluble and membrane bound ribosomes are separated by centrifugation, and SRP-bound ribosomes are immunoprecipitated from the soluble fraction. Polysomes and monosomes are separated by sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation.

Project description:Background: The tissue-specific response to steroid hormones remains unclear even in model organisms. The mechanism is proposed to be based on the selective binding of nuclear hormone receptors to regulatory sites that are primed by tissue-specific factors. But studies directly describing the cooperative work of nuclear receptors with tissue-specific transcription factors remain sparse. Earlier, GATA family factor SRP/dGATAb was proposed to prime regulatory sites in S2 Schneider cells for their activation by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), the main steroid hormone of the Drosophila development. Highly specific expression of SRP/dGATAb in Drosophila tissues makes it a suitable candidate for a factor enabling tissue-specific response to 20E. Results: The role of SRP/dGATAb in the response of S2 Schneider cells to 20E was determined using SRP/dGATAb depletion via RNA interference. Combination RNA-Seq with ChIP-Seq analysis helped identify the primary targets of SRP/dGATAb whose transcription is induced in response to 20E treatment and whose loci contain EcR and SRP/dGATAb binding sites. SRP/dGATAb depletion was found to alter transcription of different 20E-induced genes in opposite ways. For 20E-activated genes whose transcription was decreased upon depletion, SRP/dGATAb was found to control active regulatory sites marked by the H3K27Ac and enriched with SRP/dGATAb motifs. In this group SRP/dGATAb depletion reduced EcR binding level at sites co-bound with EcR and SRP/dGATAb, demonstrating a priming role for GATA family protein. In contrast, for 20E-activated SRP/dGATAb-suppressed genes whose transcription was increased upon SRP/dGATAb depletion, SRP/dGATAb and EcR co-bound sites showed unchanged H3K27Ac levels and EcR binding. The overall level of H3K27 acetylation at the loci of the second group of genes showed increase upon SRP/dGATAb depletion. Conclusions: Obtained data showed a positive role of SRP/dGATAb in 20E-inducible transcription in S2 Schneider cells for some genes. SRP/dGATAb worked as a priming transcriptional factor for 20E-inducible regulatory sites controlling EcR recruitment and chromatin acetylation. But for another group of 20E-inducible genes, SRP/dGATAb had negative impact on transcription. Its recruitment through the protein-protein interactions restrained activity of the regulatory sites.

Project description:Non-coding 7SL RNA is an ancestor to mammalian Alu and B1 SINE RNAs and is thought to function exclusively within the Signal Recognition Particle (SRP), aiding in the translocation of secretory proteins into the endoplasmic reticulum for export. Here, we discover a surprising new function unrelated to protein secretion. Under acute heat shock, 7SL and SRP together selectively arrest cellular transcription and translation machineries as a crucial early response to stress. Under thermal stress, 7SL is upregulated, localizes to the nucleus, and binds to target genes repressed by heat shock. Concurrently, in the cytosol, SRP binds to ribosomes and inhibits new protein synthesis. Translational suppression occurs independently of the signal peptide and is abrogated by depleting SRP. Intriguingly, translation inhibition extends to the mitochondria, as nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes are enriched among SRP targets. Thus, apart from its role in protein export, 7SL/SRP orchestrates a global response to acute stress that encompasses the nucleus, cytosol, and mitochondria across transcription and translation.

Project description:Bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs) are post-transcriptional regulators of stress response, virulence and more. The activity of sRNAs must be maintained across diverse environmental conditions, including the range of temperatures that defines the thermal niche of the species. Here we characterize the effects of temperature on the specificity and efficiency of sRNA regulation in E. coli. By measuring the activity of a large-scale library of sRNA variants at different temperatures, we found that many mutations have a significant but temperature-independent effect. We identified temperature-sensitive sequence elements using measurements that break from this dominant trend. Features associated with the specificity of sRNA regulation are more sensitive to mutations at high temperatures, and we confirm that specificity is more stringent at these temperatures. In contrast, many mutations in the region responsible for interactions with other targets have a stronger negative impact at low temperatures. Together, our results suggest that sRNAs may be structured such that variation in temperature may enhance their evolutionary plasticity.
