Ubiquitous accumulation of 3' mRNA decay fragments in Saccharomyces cerevisiae mRNAs with chromosomally integrated MS2 arrays.

ABSTRACT: The binding of MS2-GFP protein to arrays of MS2 sites in yeast mRNAs has been used extensively to visualize mRNA localization. We previously reported that arrays of MS2 sites bound by MS2 protein could inhibit Xrn1p and lead to the accumulation of 3' mRNA decay fragments. We suggest that these decay fragments have the potential to complicate mRNA localization studies, as stated in an earlier study.

Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay of the ferric and cupric reductase mRNAs FRE1 and FRE2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway regulates mRNAs that aberrantly terminate translation. This includes aberrant mRNAs and functional natural mRNAs. Natural mRNA degradation by NMD is triggered by mRNA features and environmental cues. Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes multiple proteins with ferric and cupric reductase activity. Here, we examined the regulation by NMD of two mRNAs, FRE1 and FRE2, encoding ferric and cupric reductases in S. cerevisiae. We found that FRE2 mRNAs are regulated by NMD under noninducing conditions and that the FRE2 3'-UTR contributes to the degradation of the mRNAs by NMD. Conversely, FRE1 mRNAs are not regulated by NMD under comparable conditions. These findings suggest that regulation of functionally related mRNAs by NMD can be differential and conditional.

Co-translational mRNA decay in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:The rates of RNA decay and transcription determine the steady-state levels of all messenger RNA and both can be subject to regulation. Although the details of transcriptional regulation are becoming increasingly understood, the mechanism(s) controlling mRNA decay remain unclear. In yeast, a major pathway of mRNA decay begins with deadenylation followed by decapping and 5'-3' exonuclease digestion. Importantly, it is hypothesized that ribosomes must be removed from mRNA before transcripts are destroyed. Contrary to this prediction, here we show that decay takes place while mRNAs are associated with actively translating ribosomes. The data indicate that dissociation of ribosomes from mRNA is not a prerequisite for decay and we suggest that the 5'-3' polarity of mRNA degradation has evolved to ensure that the last translocating ribosome can complete translation.

Cytoplasmic decay of intergenic transcripts in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:Eukaryotes produce a number of noncoding transcripts from intergenic regions. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, such cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) are thought to be degraded in the nucleus by a process involving polyadenylation and 3'-to-5' degradation by the nuclear exosome. In this work, we examine the degradation pathway of the RNA SRG1, which is produced from an intergenic region and contributes to the regulation of the SER3 gene by promoter occlusion during SRG1 transcription. Although there is some effect on SRG1 transcript levels when the nuclear exosome is compromised, the bulk of the SRG1 RNA is degraded in the cytoplasm by decapping and 5'-to-3' exonucleolytic digestion. Examination of other CUTs suggests that individual CUTs can be degraded by a variety of different mechanisms, including nuclear decay, cytoplasmic decapping and 5'-to-3' decay, and nonsense-mediated decay. Moreover, some CUTs appear to be associated with polyribosomes. These results indicate that some CUTs can be exported from the nucleus and enter translation before being degraded, identifying a potential mechanism for the evolution of new protein-encoding genes.

Long 3'-UTRs target wild-type mRNAs for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway, present in most eukaryotic cells, is a specialized pathway that leads to the recognition and rapid degradation of mRNAs with premature termination codons and, importantly, some wild-type mRNAs. Earlier studies demonstrated that aberrant mRNAs with artificially extended 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) are degraded by NMD. However, the extent to which wild-type mRNAs with long 3'-UTRs are degraded by NMD is not known. We used a global approach to identify wild-type mRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that have longer than expected 3'-UTRs, and of these mRNAs tested, 91% were degraded by NMD. We demonstrate for the first time that replacement of the natural, long 3'-UTR from wild-type PGA1 mRNA, which encodes a protein that is important for cell wall biosynthesis, with a short 3'-UTR renders it immune to NMD. The natural PGA1 3'-UTR is sufficient to target a NMD insensitive mRNA for decay by the NMD pathway. Finally, we show that nmd mutants are sensitive to Calcofluor White, which suggests that the regulation of PGA1 and other cell wall biosynthesis proteins by NMD is physiologically significant.

Identification of NAD+ capped mRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:RNAs besides tRNA and rRNA contain chemical modifications, including the recently described 5' nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) RNA in bacteria. Whether 5' NAD-RNA exists in eukaryotes remains unknown. We demonstrate that 5' NAD-RNA is found on subsets of nuclear and mitochondrial encoded mRNAs in Saccharomyces cerevisiae NAD-mRNA appears to be produced cotranscriptionally because NAD-RNA is also found on pre-mRNAs, and only on mitochondrial transcripts that are not 5' end processed. These results define an additional 5' RNA cap structure in eukaryotes and raise the possibility that this 5' NAD+ cap could modulate RNA stability and translation on specific subclasses of mRNAs.

Decay profiles of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mRNAs following oxidative stress and DNA damage

Project description:We subjected yeast to two stresses, oxidative stress, which under current settings induces a fast and transient response in mRNA abundance, and DNA damage, which triggers a slow enduring response. Using microarrays, we performed a transcriptional arrest experiment to measure genome-wide mRNA decay profiles under each condition. Genome-wide decay kinetics in each condition were compared to decay experiments that were performed in a reference condition (only transcription inhibition without an additional stress) to quantify changes in mRNA stability in each condition. We found condition-specific changes in mRNA decay rates and coordination between mRNA production and degradation. In the transient response, most induced genes were surprisingly destabilized, while repressed genes were somewhat stabilized, exhibiting counteraction between production and degradation. This strategy can reconcile high steady-state level with short response time among induced genes. In contrast, the stress that induces the slow response displays the more expected behavior, whereby most induced genes are stabilized, and repressed genes destabilized. Our results show genome-wide interplay between mRNA production and degradation, and that alternative modes of such interplay determine the kinetics of the transcriptome in response to stress.

Ubiquitous mRNA decay fragments in E. coli redefine the functional transcriptome

Project description:Bacterial mRNAs have short life cycles, in which transcription is rapidly followed by translation and degradation within seconds to minutes. The resulting diversity of mRNA molecules across different life-cycle stages impacts their functionality but has remained unresolved. Here we quantitatively map the 3’ status of cellular RNAs in Escherichia coli during steady-state growth and report a large fraction of molecules (median>60%) that are fragments of canonical full-length mRNAs. The majority of RNA fragments are decay intermediates, whereas nascent RNAs contribute to a smaller fraction. Despite the prevalence of decay intermediates in total cellular RNA, these intermediates are underrepresented in the pool of ribosome-associated transcripts and can thus distort quantifications and differential expression analyses for the abundance of full-length, functional mRNAs. The large heterogeneity within mRNA molecules in vivo highlights the importance in discerning functional transcripts and provides a lens for studying the dynamic life cycle of mRNAs.

Global analysis of mRNA decay intermediates in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:The general pathways of eukaryotic mRNA decay occur via deadenylation followed by 3' to 5' degradation or decapping, although some endonuclease sites have been identified in metazoan mRNAs. To determine the role of endonucleases in mRNA degradation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we mapped 5' monophosphate ends on mRNAs in wild-type and dcp2 xrn1 yeast cells, wherein mRNA endonuclease cleavage products are stabilized. This led to three important observations. First, only few mRNAs that undergo low-level endonucleolytic cleavage were observed, suggesting that endonucleases are not a major contributor to yeast mRNA decay. Second, independent of known decapping enzymes, we observed low levels of 5' monophosphates on some mRNAs, suggesting that an unknown mechanism can generate 5' exposed ends, although for all substrates tested, Dcp2 was the primary decapping enzyme. Finally, we identified debranched lariat intermediates from intron-containing genes, demonstrating a significant discard pathway for mRNAs during the second step of pre-mRNA splicing, which is a potential step to regulate gene expression.

Expression data of antibody fragments from Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been used as a secretion host for production of various products, including pharmaceuticals. However, few antibody molecules have been functionally expressed in S. cerevisiae due to the incompatible surface glycosylation. Our laboratory previously isolated a group of yeast mutant strains with different α-amylase secretory capacities, and these evolved strains have showed advantages for production of some heterologous proteins. However, it is not known whether these secretory strains are generally suitable for pharmaceutical protein production. Here, three non-glycosylated antibody fragments with different configurations (Ran-Fab fragment Ranibizumab, Pex-the scFv peptide Pexelizumab, and Nan-a single V-type domain) were successfully expressed and secreted in three background strains with different secretory capacities, including HA (wild type), MA (evolved strain), and LA (evolved strain). However, the secretion of Ran and Nan were positively correlated with the strains’ secretory capacity, while Pex was most efficiently secreted in the parental strain. Therefore, transcriptional analysis was performed to explore the fundamental changes triggered by the expression of the different pharmaceutical proteins in these selected yeast strains.

The widespread occurrence of tRNA-derived fragments in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>.

Project description:Short RNAs derived from the cleavage of tRNA molecules are observed in most organisms. Their occurrence seems to be induced by stress conditions, but still little is known about their biogenesis and functions. We find that the recovery of tRNA fragments depends on the RNA isolation method. Using an optimized RNA extraction protocol and northern blot hybridization technique, we show that the tRNA-derived fragments in yeast are widespread in 12 different growth conditions. We did not observe significant stress-dependent changes in the amounts of tRNA fragments pool. Instead, we show the differential processing of almost all individual tRNAs. We also provide evidence that 3'-part-derived tRNA fragments are as abundant as the 5'- one in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The resulting set of S. cerevisiae tRNA fragments provides a robust basis for further experimental studies on biological functions of tRFs.
