Project description:Neural progenitor cells (aNPCs) ensure lifelong neurogenesis in the mammalian hippocampus. Proper regulation of aNPC fate entails important implications for brain plasticity and healthy aging. Piwi proteins and the small noncoding RNAs interacting with them (piRNAs) are best known in gonads as repressors of transposons. Here, we show that Piwil2 (Mili) and piRNAs are abundant in aNPCs of the postnatal mouse hippocampus and demonstrate that this pathway is essential for proper neurogenesis. Particularly, depleting the piRNA pathway in aNPCs impaired neurogenesis while increasing senescence and the generation of reactive glia. Moreover, depletion of the piRNA pathway primarily elevated 5S ribosomal RNA, SINEB1 and mRNAs encoding ribosomal proteins and regulators of translation, resulting in higher polysome density and protein synthesis upon differentiation. Our results provide evidence of an essential role for the piRNA pathway in maintaining homeostasis to sustain neural stem cell fate, underpinning its possible involvement in brain plasticity and successful aging.

Project description:In mice, the PIWI-piRNA pathway is essential to re-establish transposon silencing during male germline reprogramming. The cytoplasmic PIWI protein MILI mediates piRNA-guided transposon RNA cleavage as well as piRNA amplification. MIWI2-bound piRNAs and its nuclear localization are proposed to be dependent upon MILI function. Here, we demonstrate the existence of a piRNA biogenesis pathway that in the absence of MILI that sustains partial MIWI2 function and reprogramming activity.

Project description:PIWI-interacting small RNAs (piRNAs) protect the germline genome and are essential for fertility. Previously, we showed that ribosomes guide the biogenesis of piRNAs from long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) after translating the short open reading frames (ORFs) near their 5′ cap. It remained unclear, however, how ribosomes proceed downstream of ORFs and how piRNA precursors distinguish from other RNAs. It is thus important to test whether a short ORF length is required for substrate recognition for ribosome guided-piRNA biogenesis. Here, we characterized a poorly understood class of piRNAs that originate from the 3′ untranslated regions (3′UTRs) of protein coding genes in mice and chickens. We demonstrate that their precursors are full-length mRNAs and that post-termination 80S ribosomes guide piRNA production on 3′UTRs after translation of upstream long ORFs. Similar to non-sense mediated decay (NMD), piRNA biogenesis degrades mRNA right after pioneer rounds of translation and fine-tunes protein production from mRNAs. Interestingly, however, we found that NMD, along with other surveillance pathways for ribosome recycling are temporally sequestered during the pachytene stage to allow for robust piRNA production. Although 3′UTR piRNA precursor mRNAs code for distinct proteins in mice and chickens, they all harbor embedded transposable elements (TEs) and produce piRNAs that cleave TEs, suggesting that TE suppression, rather than the function of proteins, is the primary evolutionary force maintaining a subset of mRNAs as piRNA precursors. Altogether, we discover a function of the piRNA pathway in fine-tuning protein production and reveal a conserved, general piRNA biogenesis mechanism that recognizes translating RNAs regardless of their ORF length in amniotes.

Project description:Small non-coding RNAs that associate with Piwi proteins, called piRNAs, serve as guides for repression of diverse transposable elements in germ cells of Metazoa. In Drosophila, the genomic regions that give rise to piRNAs, the so-called piRNA clusters, are transcribed to generate long precursor molecules that are processed into mature piRNAs. How genomic regions that give rise to piRNA precursor transcripts are differentiated from the rest of the genome and how these transcripts are specifically channeled into the piRNA biogenesis pathway are not known. We found that trans-generationally inherited piRNAs provide the critical trigger for piRNA production from homologous genomic regions in the next generation by two different mechanisms. First, inherited piRNAs enhance processing of homologous transcripts into mature piRNAs by initiating the ping-pong cycle in the cytoplasm. Second, inherited piRNAs induce installment of the H3K9me3 mark on genomic piRNA cluster sequences. The HP1 homolog Rhino binds to the H3K9me3 mark through its chromodomain and is enriched over piRNA clusters. Rhino recruits the piRNA biogenesis factor Cutoff to piRNA clusters and is required for efficient transcription of piRNA precursors. We propose that trans-generationally inherited piRNAs act as an epigenetic memory for identification of substrates for piRNA biogenesis on two levels, by inducing a permissive chromatin environment for piRNA precursor synthesis and by enhancing processing of these precursors. small RNA (19-29nt) sequencing of RNA from ovaries of cuff+/- or cuff-/- flies
