Project description:Translation depends on messenger RNA (mRNA)-specific initiation, elongation, and termination rates. While translation elongation is well studied in bacteria and yeast, less is known in higher eukaryotes. Here we combined ribosome and transfer RNA (tRNA) profiling to investigate the relations between translation elongation rates, (aminoacyl-) tRNA levels, and codon usage in mammals. We modeled codon-specific ribosome dwell times from ribosome profiling, considering codon pair interactions between ribosome sites. In mouse liver, the model revealed site- and codon-specific dwell times that differed from those in yeast, as well as pairs of adjacent codons in the P and A site that markedly slow down or speed up elongation. While translation efficiencies vary across diurnal time and feeding regimen, codon dwell times were highly stable and conserved in human. Measured tRNA levels correlated with codon usage and several tRNAs showed reduced aminoacylation, which was conserved in fasted mice. Finally, we uncovered that the longest codon dwell times could be explained by aminoacylation levels or high codon usage relative to tRNA abundance.

Project description:Protein translation depends on mRNA-specific initiation, elongation, and termination rates. While the regulation of ribosome elongation is well studied in bacteria and yeast, less is known in higher eukaryotes. Here, we combined ribosome and tRNA profiling to investigate the relations between ribosome elongation rates, (aminoacyl-) tRNA levels and codon usage in mammals. We modeled codon-specific ribosome dwell times and translation fluxes from ribosome profiling, considering pair-interactions between ribosome sites. In mouse liver, the model revealed site and codon specific dwell times, as well as codon pair-interactions clustering by amino acids. While translation fluxes varied significantly across diurnal time and feeding regimen, codon dwell times were highly stable, and conserved in human. Fasting had no effect on codon dwell times in mouse liver. Profiling of total and aminoacylated tRNAs revealed highly heterogeneous levels with specific isoacceptor patterns and a correlation with codon usage. tRNAs for isoleucine, asparagine, aspartate and arginine were lowly loaded and conserved in fasted mice. Finally, codons with low levels of charged tRNAs and high codon usage relative to tRNA abundance exhibited long dwell times. Together, these analyses pave the way towards understanding the complex relation between tRNA loading, codon usage and ribosome dwell times in mammals.

Project description:Summary Aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases (aaRSs) serve a dual role in charging tRNAs. Their enzymatic activities both provide protein synthesis flux and reduce uncharged tRNA levels. Although uncharged tRNAs can negatively impact bacterial growth, substantial concentrations of tRNAs remain deacylated even under nutrient-rich conditions. Here we show that tRNA charging in Bacillus subtilis is not maximized due to optimization of aaRS production during rapid growth, which prioritizes demands in protein synthesis over charging levels. The presence of uncharged tRNAs is alleviated by precisely tuned translation kinetics and the stringent response, both insensitive to aaRS overproduction but sharply responsive to underproduction, allowing for just-enough aaRS production atop a “fitness cliff”. Notably, we find that the stringent response mitigates fitness defects at all aaRS underproduction levels even without external starvation. Thus, adherence to minimal, flux-satisfying protein production drives limited tRNA charging and provides a basis for the sensitivity and setpoints of an integrated growth-control network.

Project description:Structural analysis of ribosomes in complex with aminoacyl- and/or peptidyl-transfer RNA (tRNA) often suffers from rapid hydrolysis of the ester bond of aminoacyl-tRNAs. To avoid this issue, several methods to introduce an unhydrolyzable amide bond instead of the canonical ester bond have been developed to date. However, the existing methodologies require rather complex steps of synthesis and are often inapplicable to a variety of amino acids including those with noncanonical structures. Here, we report a new method to synthesize 3'-aminoacyl-NH-tRNAs by means of flexizymes-ribozymes capable of charging amino acids onto tRNAs. We show that two types of flexizymes, dFx and eFx, are able to charge various amino acids, including nonproteinogenic ones, onto tRNA or microhelix RNA bearing the 3'-deoxy-3'-amino-adenosine. Due to the versatility of the flexizymes toward any pair of nonproteinogenic amino acids and full-length or fragment tRNAs, this method provides researchers an opportunity to use a wide array of hydrolytically stable 3'-aminoacyl-NH-tRNAs and analogs for various studies.

Project description:Mutations that introduce premature termination codons (PTCs) within protein-coding genes are associated with incurable and severe genetic diseases. Many PTC-associated disorders are life-threatening and have no approved medical treatment options. Suppressor transfer RNAs (sup-tRNAs) with the capacity to promote translational readthrough of PTCs represent a promising therapeutic strategy to treat these conditions; however, developing novel sup-tRNAs with high efficiency and specificity often requires extensive engineering and screening. Moreover, these efforts are not always successful at producing more efficient sup-tRNAs. Here we show that the pyrrolysine tRNA (tRNAPyl), which naturally translates the UAG stop codon, offers an attractive scaffold for developing potent sup-tRNAs that restore protein synthesis from PTC-containing genes. We created a series of rationally designed Pyrrolysine tRNA Scaffold Suppressor-tRNAs (PASS-tRNAs) that are substrates of bacterial and human alanyl-tRNA synthetase. Using a PTC-containing reporter gene, PASS-tRNAs restore protein synthesis to wild-type levels in bacterial cells. In human cells, PASS-tRNAs display robust and consistent translation activity in two distinct PTC reporter genes with high codon specificity and no observed cytotoxic effects. Collectively, these results unveil a new class of highly efficient sup-tRNAs with great potential for tRNA-based therapeutics.

Project description:The CCA-adding enzyme adds CCA to the 3' ends of transfer RNAs (tRNAs), a critical step in tRNA biogenesis that generates the amino acid attachment site. We found that the CCA-adding enzyme plays a key role in tRNA quality control by selectively marking unstable tRNAs and tRNA-like small RNAs for degradation. Instead of adding CCA to the 3' ends of these transcripts, CCA-adding enzymes from all three kingdoms of life add CCACCA. Here, we report deep sequencing analysis of the 3' ends of tRNA-Ser-CGA and tRNA-Ser-UGA from S. cerevisiae strains and show that hypomodified mature tRNAs are subjected to CCACCA (or poly(A) addition) as part of a rapid tRNA decay pathway in vivo. We conjecture that CCACCA addtion is a universal mechanism for controlling tRNA levels and preventing errors in translation. 121 samples analyzed in total, representing time courses of 10 different yeast strains; Biological replicates for each time point are included
