Regulatory and evolutionary footprints of messenger RNA secondary structure in primate transcriptomes

ABSTRACT: Messenger RNA secondary structure is critical to all aspects of post-transcriptional regulation. However, the global regulatory and evolutionary significance of mRNA secondary structure remains largely illusive. Here, we describe a transcriptome-wide analysis of RNA secondary structure in humans and two non-human primates, based on a high-throughput, nuclease-mediated, structure mapping approach. Using this methodology, we uncover global patterns of mRNA secondary structure, which we find to be conserved through primate evolution. We provide evidence for secondary structure-based regulatory pathways, which impact on gene expression through associations with translational machinery and RNA-binding proteins, including components of the microprocessor complex. Our results lend support to an unexpected, conserved mechanism by which highly structured regions of mRNAs serve as processing sites for small RNAs, resulting in subsequent turnover. Global mRNA secondary structure analysis in primate transcriptomes using high-throughput, nuclease-mediated, structure mappinng approaches of dsRNA-seq and ssRNA-seq, also with polyA+ mRNA-seq, smRNA-seq (small RNA), and genome-wide mapping of uncapped and cleaved transcripts (GMUCT); these NGS-seq experiments were carried out in three primate brains as well as three different cell lines, both in in vitro and in vivo.

Global analysis of RNA secondary structure conservation between two metazoans

Project description:The secondary structure of RNA is necessary for its maturation, regulation, and processing. However, the global influence of RNA folding in eukaryotes is still unclear. Here, we identify evolutionarily conserved features of RNA secondary structure in metazoans by applying our high-throughput, sequencing-based, structure-mapping approach to Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans. This analysis reveals key structural patterns across protein-coding transcripts that indicate RNA folding is influential to protein translation and microRNA-mediated targeting and/or regulation of mRNAs in animals. Additionally, we uncover a novel population of highly base-paired RNAs, many of which are likely functional, long, non-coding RNAs. Finally, we identify and characterize ~180 structural motifs of mRNAs that are under positive or negative selection in these metazoans, thereby revealing a large set of RNA structures that are likely functional. Overall, our findings highlight the significance of secondary structure within RNA molecules, and provide the first comprehensive evidence of widespread RNA secondary structure conservation in animals. Double-stranded (dsRNA) specific RNA sequencing (dsRNA-seq) and single-stranded (ssRNA) specific RNA sequencing (ssRNA-seq) in Drosophila DL1 cells and C. elegans mixed stage N2 worms. Each of the four samples (dsRNA/Dmel, ssRNA/Dmel, dsRNA/Cel, and ssRNA/Cel) was sequenced separately on both Illumina GA-IIx and Hiseq2000, giving a total of eight datasets. Two corresponding smRNA libraries (smRNA-seq) of the same DL1 cells and mixed stage N2 worms are also presented.

Regulatory impact of RNA secondary structure across the Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome

Project description:The secondary structure of an RNA molecule plays an integral role in its maturation, regulation, processing, and functionality. However, the global influence of this feature on plant gene expression is still for the most part unclear. Here, we use a high-throughput, sequencing-based, structure-mapping approach in conjunction with transcriptome-wide sequencing of polyA+-selected (RNA-seq), small (smRNA-seq), and ribosome-bound (ribo-seq) RNA populations to investigate the impact of RNA secondary structure on gene expression regulation in Arabidopsis. From this analysis, we find that highly unpaired and paired RNAs are strongly correlated with euchromatic and heterochromatic epigenetic histone modifications, respectively, providing further evidence that secondary structure is necessary for RNA-mediated posttranscriptional regulatory pathways. Additionally, we uncover key structural patterns across protein-coding transcripts that indicate RNA folding demarcates regions of protein translation and likely affects microRNA-mediated regulation of mRNAs in this model plant. We also reveal that RNA folding is significantly anti-correlated with overall transcript abundance, which is likely due to the increased propensity of highly structured mRNAs to be degraded and/or processed into smRNAs. Finally, we find that secondary structure affects mRNA translation, suggesting that this feature regulates plant gene expression at multiple levels. Overall, our findings provide the first global assessment of RNA folding and its significant regulatory effects in a plant transcriptome. Single-stranded RNA sequencing (ssRNA-seq) and ribosome-bound RNA sequencing (ribo-seq) in immature buds. A single replicate of each library.

Determination of RNA Secondary Structure By RNA-Sequencing of HEK293T Cells

Project description:RNA molecule fold into three dimensional structures in order to fill important roles in the cell such as translation and post-transcriptional regulation. These three dimensional structures, in turn, depend on the pattern of hydrogen bonds between ribonucleotides. We employ a technique based on high throughput RNA Sequencing (RNA-Seq) to uncover this patter on a transcriptome wide scale. We take advantage of two ribonucleases that have structure specific activity. RNAse S1 specifically digests single stranded RNA while RNAse V1 is specific to double stranded RNA. We aliquot each of our sample into to reactions. One is thoroughly treated with RNAse S1, digesting away single stranded RNA and leaving behind dsRNA. The other is treated with RNAse V1, which has the inverse effect. The surviving dsRNA and ssRNA molecules are then subject to high throughput sequencing. The resulting reads are used to generate a structure score, revelaing which regions of each transcript are involved in base pairing and which are unpaired.

Detection of Pol IV-dependent transcripts at the genomic scale in Arabidopsis reveals features and regulation of siRNA biogenesis

Project description:24 nucleotide siRNAs are central players in RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), a process that establishes DNA methylation at transposable elements to ensure genome stability. The plant-specific RNA polymerase IV (Pol IV) is required for siRNA biogenesis and is thought to transcribe RdDM loci to produce primary transcripts that serve as precursors to siRNAs. Yet, no such transcripts have ever been reported. Here, through RNA sequencing and double-stranded RNA sequencing in genotypes that compromise the dicing of siRNA precursors, we were able to identify Pol IV-dependent transcripts from tens of thousands of loci. We show that Pol IV-dependent transcripts correspond to both DNA strands, while the Pol II-dependent transcripts produced upon de-repression of the loci are derived from primarily one strand. We show that Pol IV-dependent transcripts have a 5â monophosphate, lack a polyA tail at the 3â end, and contain no introns; these features distinguish them from Pol II-dependent transcripts. Moreover, RDR2 is shown to play similar roles with Pol IV in both the abundance of siRNA precursors and siRNAs as well as the CHH DNA methylation. The decreased CHH methylation at dcl234 can inhibit the transcription of Pol IV at DRM2-target sites. Finally, the regulations of siRNA biogenesis were explored. To detect siRNA precursors transcribed by RNA polymerase IV, the genome wide profiling of RNA were carried out at dcl234 and dcl234 nrpd1. Different types of RNA (including Total RNA, polyA+ RNA, polyA- RNA, double stranded RNA) libraries were built to detect different transcripts. RDR2 is a RNA-dependent RNA polymerase in Pol IV complex, so the RNA-seq libraries with the mutation of RDR2 were also built. In addition, smRNA libraries with mutations blocking siRNA biogenesis were also built

Somatic Primary piRNA Biogenesis Driven by Cis-Acting RNA Elements and Trans- Acting Yb

Project description:Primary piRNAs in Drosophila ovarian somatic cells arise from piRNA cluster transcripts and the 3′ UTRs of a subset of mRNAs, including Traffic jam (Tj) mRNA. However, it is unclear how these RNAs are determined as primary piRNA sources. Here, we identify a cis-acting 100-nt fragment in the Tj 3′ UTR that is sufficient for producing artificial piRNAs from unintegrated DNA. These artificial piRNAs were effective in endogenous gene transcriptional silencing. Yb, a core component of primary piRNA biogenesis center Yb bodies, directly bound the Tj-cis-element. Disruption of this interaction markedly reduced piRNA production. Thus, Yb is the trans-acting partner of the Tj-cis-element. Yb-CLIP revealed that Yb-binding correlated with somatic piRNA production but Tj-cis-element downstream sequences produced few artificial piRNAs. Thus, Yb determines primary piRNA sources by two modes of action; primary binding to cis-elements to specify substrates, and secondary binding to downstream regions to increase diversity in piRNA populations. HITS-CLIP of Yb in OSCs (Ovarian Somatic Cells) depleted for tj cis-element, and small RNA sequencing of Piwi-piRNAs in OSCs depleted for tj cis-element.

Screening of plasma exosomal RNAs as a diagnostic marker for cervical cancer: analysis of patients who underwent primary chemoradiotherapy

Project description:1. The expression of plasma exosomal ncRNAs and mRNAs was compared a group of 12 samples from healthy individuals (normal group) with a group of 30 samples from cervical cancer patients before primary concurrent chemoradiotherpay (cancer group) using differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis. The RNAs with both |log2FC| >2 and P values < 0.05 2. We prepared for log2 fold change values of plasma exosomal RNAs for 30 patients from 30 samples in second week during CCRT compared with those before treatment to screen secondary biological function of primarily selected DEGs. We analyzed the association between non-coding RNA (ncRNA)-mRNA network and cancer using ingenuity pathway analysis after secondary selection according to the number and correlation of mRNAs (or ncRNAs) relevant to log2FC in the expression of primarily selected ncRNAs (or mRNAs) before and after CCRT. The raw NGS data of 58 samples from 29 patients were uploaded in E-MTAB-10215. Here we will upload raw RNA sequencing data of 12 samples from 12 healthy individuals and 2 samples from one cervical cancer patient.

Combining transcriptome and proteome analysis to identify and characterize the RpoS regulon in Pseudomonas fluorescens

Project description:Background: Microorganisms are the major cause of food spoilage during storage, processing and distribution. Pseudomonas fluorescens is a typical spoilage bacterium that contributes to a large extent to the spoilage process of proteinaceous food. RpoS is considered an important global regulator involved in stress survival and virulence in many pathogens. Our previous work revealed that RpoS contributed to the spoilage activities of P. fluorescens by regulating resistance to different stress conditions, extracellular acylated homoserine lactone (AHL) levels, extracellular protease and total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N) production. However, RpoS-dependent genes in P. fluorescens remained undefined. Results: RNA-seq transcriptomics analysis combined with quantitative proteomics analysis basing on multiplexed isobaric tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling was performed for the P. fluorescens wild-type strain UK4 and its derivative carrying a rpoS mutation. A total of 375 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 212 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified in these two backgrounds. The DGEs were further verified by qRT-PCR tests, and the genes directly regulated by RpoS were confirmed by 5’-RACE-PCR sequencing. The combining transcriptome and proteome analysis revealed a role of this regulator in several cellular processes, including polysaccharide metabolism, intracellular secretion and extracellular structures, cell well biogenesis, stress responses, ammonia and biogenic amine production, which may contribute to biofilm formation, stress resistance and spoilage activities of P. fluorescens. Moreover, in this work we indeed observed that RpoS contributed to the production of the macrocolony biofilm’s matrix.

Non-CG methylation patterns shape the epigenetic landscape in Arabidopsis

Project description:DNA methylation occurs in both CG and non-CG sequence contexts. Non-CG methylation is abundant in plants, and is mediated by CHROMOMETHYLASE (CMT) and DOMAINS REARRANGED METHYLTRANSFERASE (DRM) proteins; however its roles remain poorly understood. Here we characterize the roles of non-CG methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana. We show that a poorly characterized methyltransferase, CMT2, is a functional methyltransferase in vitro and in vivo. CMT2 specifically binds histone H3 lysine 9 (H3K9) dimethylation and methylates non-CG cytosines at sites that are also regulated by H3K9 dimethylation. By generating different combinations of non-CG methylation mutants, we reveal the contributions and redundancies between each methyltransferase in DNA methylation patterning and in regulating transposable elements (TEs) and protein-coding genes. We also demonstrate extensive dependencies of small RNA accumulation and H3K9 methylation patterning on non-CG methylation, suggesting self-reinforcing mechanisms between these epigenetic factors. The results suggest that non-CG methylation patterns are critical in shaping the histone modification and small non-coding RNA landscapes. Eighteen mRNA-seq samples, five smRNA-seq samples, five bisulfite-seq samples, twenty ChIP-seq samples. Bisulfite-seq data for cmt2-7 single mutants, cmt3 single mutants, drm1/2 double mutants, drm1/2 cmt3 triple mutants are deposited in GSE39901.

EMpire: Deep isoform level integration of the transcriptome, translatome, and proteome

Project description:In this study, we make used of mRNA-seq and its ability to reliably quantify isoforms, integrating this data with ribosome profiling and LC-MS/MS, to assign ribosome footprints and peptides at the isoform level. We leverage the principle that most cell types, and even tissues, predominantly express a single principal isoform to set isoform-level mRNA-seq quantifications as priors to guide and improve allocation of footprints or peptides to isoforms. Through tightly integrated mRNAseq, ribosome footprinting and/or LC-MS/MS proteomics we demonstrate that a principal isoform can be identified in over 80% of gene products in homogenous HEK293 cell culture and over 70% of proteins detected in complex human brain tissue. Defining isoforms in experiments with matched RNA-seq and translatomic/proteomic data increases the functional relevance of such datasets and will further broaden our understanding of multi-level control of gene expression. In this PRIDE submission you will find the raw files for the HEK293 cell proteomics. Files for the human brain proteomics can be found at PXD005445. We have also uploaded a zip file that contains the input files for our HEK293 cell analysis, and the isoform level output files – there is a separate folder within the zip files for these. The data used to create the manuscript figures is in the Rdata file. Code for assigning peptides and footprints to isoforms can be found on Github here: https://github.com/rkitchen/EMpire
