Project description:Tgt is the enzyme modifying the guanine (G) in tRNAs with GUN anticodon to queuosine (Q). tgt is required for optimal growth of Vibrio cholerae in the presence of sub-lethal aminoglycoside concentrations. We further explored here the role of the Q in the efficiency of codon decoding upon tobramycin exposure. We characterized its impact on the overall bacterial proteome, and elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of Q modification in antibiotic translational stress response. Using molecular reporters, we showed that Q impacts the efficiency of decoding at tyrosine TAT and TAC codons. Proteomics analyses revealed that the anti-SoxR factor RsxA is better translated in the absence of tgt. RsxA displays a codon bias towards tyrosine TAT and overabundance of RsxA leads to decreased expression of genes belonging to SoxR oxidative stress regulon. We also identified conditions that regulate tgt expression. We propose that regulation of Q modification in response to environmental cues leads to translational reprogramming of genes bearing a biased tyrosine codon usage. In silico analysis further identified candidate genes possibly subject to such translational regulation, among which DNA repair factors. Such transcripts, fitting the definition of modification tunable transcripts, are plausibly central in the bacterial response to antibiotics.

Project description:Queuosine (Q) is a conserved tRNA modification at the wobble anticodon position of tRNAs that read the codons of amino acids Tyr, His, Asn, and Asp. Q-modification in tRNA plays important roles in the regulation of translation efficiency and fidelity. Queuosine tRNA modification is synthesized de novo in bacteria, whereas the substrate for Q-modification in tRNA in mammals is queuine, the catabolic product of the Q-base of gut bacteria. This gut microbiome dependent tRNA modification may play pivotal roles in translational regulation in different cellular contexts, but extensive studies of Q-modification biology are hindered by the lack of high throughput sequencing methods for its detection and quantitation. Here, we describe a periodate-treatment method of biological RNA samples that enables single base resolution profiling of Q-modification in tRNAs by Nextgen sequencing. Periodate oxidizes the Q-base, which results in specific deletion signatures in the RNA-seq data. Unexpectedly, we found that periodate-treatment also enables the detection of several 2-thio-modifications including τm5s2U, mcm5s2U, cmnm5s2U, and s2C by sequencing in human and E. coli tRNA. We term this method Periodate-dependent analysis of queuosine and thio modification sequencing (PAQS-seq). We assess Q- and 2-thio-modifications at the tRNA isodecoder level, and 2-thio modification changes in stress response. PAQS-seq should be widely applicable in the biological studies of Q- and 2-thio-modifications in mammalian and microbial tRNAs.

Project description:Queuosine (Q) is a conserved tRNA modification in the wobble anticodon position of tRNAs that read codons of Tyr/His/Asn/Asp. Eukaryotic tRNA Q-modification requires the metabolite queuine – derived from diet or catabolism of the gut microbiome – and a host-genome encoded enzyme complex, QTRT1/QTRT2. tRNA Q-modification has been shown to regulate translational efficiency, but the response of the mammalian transcriptome and tRNAome to tRNA Q-modification in the context of cell proliferation has not been thoroughly investigated. Using cells that differ only in their tRNA Q-modification levels, we found that both human HEK293T cultures and the primary, murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) proliferate faster when tRNA Q-modification level is high. We carried out tRNA-seq and mRNA-seq to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying this phenotype, revealing distinct tRNA modification and transcriptome changes associated with altered proliferation. In both cell types, the m22G26 tRNA modification is positively correlated to Q-modification, consistent with its reported role in enhancing translational efficiency. We also find that elevated Q-modification levels result in transcriptome changes, but in a context-dependent manner. In HEK293T cells, upregulated genes are in catabolic processes and signaling pathway activation; whereas in BMDCs, upregulated genes are in immune response mediation, proliferation, and immunoglobulin diversification. Codon usage analysis of differentially expressed transcripts is consistent with Q-modification enhancing the translation of ribosomal proteins, which increases cell proliferation. We also find that tRNA Q-modification increases surface presentation of MHC-II in BMDCs. Our results provide insights into the broader implications of tRNA Q-modifications in regulating diverse biological functions.

Project description:Queuosine (Q) is a complex tRNA modification found at position 34 of four tRNAs with a GUN anticodon, and it regulates the translational efficiency and fidelity of the respective codons that differ at the Wobble position. In bacteria, the biosynthesis of Q involves two precursors, preQ0 and preQ1, whereas eukaryotes directly obtain Q from bacterial sources. The study of queuosine has been challenging due to the limited availability of high-throughput methods for its detection and analysis. Here, we have employed direct RNA sequencing using nanopore technology to detect the modification of tRNAs with Q and Q precursors. These modifications were detected with high accuracy on synthetic tRNAs as well as on tRNAs extracted from Schizosaccharomyces pombe and Escherichia coli by comparing unmodified to modified tRNAs using the tool JACUSA2. Furthermore, we present an improved protocol for the alignment of raw sequence reads that gives high specificity and recall for tRNAs ex cellulo that, by nature, carry multiple modifications. Altogether, our results show that such 7-deazaguanine-derivatives are readily detectable using direct RNA sequencing. This advancement opens up new possibilities for investigating these modifications in native tRNAs, furthering our understanding of their biological function.

Project description:Post-transcriptional modification of tRNAs is critical for protein synthesis. Queuosine (Q), a 7-deaza-guanosine derivative, is present at the first position of anticodons of several tRNA species. In vertebrate tRNAs for Tyr and Asp, Q is further glycosylated with galactose and mannose to generate galactosyl-queuosine (galQ) and mannosyl-queuosine (manQ), respectively. However, the biogenesis and physiological relevance of Q-glycosylation remain poorly understood. Here, we biochemically identified two RNA glycosylases, queuosine-tRNA galactosyltransferase (QTGAL) and queuosine-tRNA mannosyltransferase (QTMAN), and successfully reconstituted galQ and manQ formation on the respective tRNAs in the presence of nucleotide diphosphate sugars. Ribosome profiling analyses of human knockout (KO) cells of QTGAL and QTMAN revealed that Q-glycosylation slowed down elongation at the cognate codons, UAC and GAC (GAU), respectively. Furthermore, protein aggregates were significantly increased in both KO cell lines, indicating that Q-glycosylation contributes to proteostasis of nascent proteins. We determined atomic structures of human cytoplasmic tRNAs for Try and Asp bound to the ribosome A-site, providing the molecular basis of codon recognition regulated by galQ and manQ. Furthermore, zebrafish qtgal and qtman KO lines displayed shortened body length, suggesting Q-glycosylation is required for post-embryonic growth in vertebrates. These findings demonstrate that Q-glycosylation modulates codon-specific translation to optimize the decoding speed in protein synthesis, thereby maintaining correct folding of nascent proteins, proteome integrity, and normal growth of vertebrates.

Project description:Tgt is responsible for the queuosine (Q) modification of the guanine (G) in tRNAs with GUN anti-codon. We have previously identified tgt as being vital for growth in presence sub-lethal concentrations of aminoglycosides in Vibrio cholerae. Here we further explore the role of Q modification in translation fidelity and efficiency of codon decoding upon tobramycin exposure. We characterize the impact on codon decoding efficiency, the overall translation of the bacterial proteome, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the effects of Q modification in antibiotic stress response. Using molecular reporters, we show that Q modification impacts the efficiency of decoding at tyrosine TAT and TAC codons. Proteomics identify the anti-SoxR factor RsxA as better translated in the absence of tgt. RsxA displays a codon bias towards tyrosine TAT and its overabundance leads to decreased expression of genes belonging to SoxR oxidative stress regulon. We also identify conditions which regulate tgt expression.

Project description:Queuosine (Q) is a modified nucleoside at the wobble position of specific tRNAs. In mammals, queuosinylation is facilitated by queuine uptake from the gut microbiota and is introduced into tRNA by the QTRT1-QTRT2 enzyme complex. By establishing a Qtrt1 knockout mouse model, we discovered that the loss of QtRNA leads to learning and memory deficits. Ribo-Seq analysis in the hippocampus of Qtrt1-deficient mice revealed not only stalling of ribosomes on Q-decoded codons but also a global imbalance in translation elongation speed between codons that engage in weak and strong interactions with their cognate anticodons. While Qdependent molecular and behavioral phenotypes were identified in both sexes, female mice were affected more severely than males. Proteomics analysis confirmed deregulation of synaptogenesis and neuronal morphology. Together, our findings provide a link between tRNA modification and brain functions and reveal an unexpected role of protein synthesis in sex-dependent cognitive performance.
