MRB10130 is a RESC assembly factor that promotes kinetoplastid RNA editing initiation and progression.

ABSTRACT: Uridine insertion deletion editing in kinetoplastid protozoa requires a complex machinery, a primary component of which is the RNA editing substrate binding complex (RESC). RESC contains two modules termed GRBC (guide RNA binding complex) and REMC (RNA editing mediator complex), although how interactions between these modules and their mRNA and gRNA binding partners are controlled is not well understood. Here, we demonstrate that the ARM/HEAT repeat containing RESC protein, MRB10130, controls REMC association with mRNA- and gRNA-loaded GRBC. High-throughput sequencing analyses show that MRB10130 functions in both initiation and 3' to 5' progression of editing through gRNA-defined domains. Editing intermediates that accumulate upon MRB10130 depletion significantly intersect those in cells depleted of another RESC organizer, MRB7260, but are distinct from those in cells depleted of specific REMC proteins. We present a model in which MRB10130 coordinates numerous protein-protein and protein-RNA interactions during editing progression.

Project description:Adaptation and survival of Trypanosoma brucei requires editing of mitochondrial mRNA by uridylate (U) insertion and deletion. Hundreds of small guide RNAs (gRNAs) direct the mRNA editing at over 3,000 sites. RNA editing is controlled during the life cycle but the regulation of substrate and stage specificity remains unknown. Editing progresses in the 3' to 5' direction along the pre-mRNA in blocks, each targeted by a unique gRNA. A critical editing factor is the mitochondrial RNA binding complex 1 (MRB1) that binds gRNA and transiently interacts with the catalytic RNA editing core complex (RECC). MRB1 is a large and dynamic complex that appears to be comprised of distinct but related subcomplexes (termed here MRBs). MRBs seem to share a 'core' complex of proteins but differ in the composition of the 'variable' proteins. Since some proteins associate transiently the MRBs remain imprecisely defined. MRB1 controls editing by unknown mechanisms, and the functional relevance of the different MRBs is unclear. We previously identified two distinct MRBs, and showed that they carry mRNAs that undergo editing. We proposed that editing takes place in the MRBs because MRBs stably associate with mRNA and gRNA but only transiently interact with RECC, which is RNA free. Here, we identify the first specialized functions in MRBs: 1) 3010-MRB is a major scaffold for RNA editing, and 2) REH2-MRB contains a critical trans-acting RNA helicase (REH2) that affects multiple steps of editing function in 3010-MRB. These trans effects of the REH2 include loading of unedited mRNA and editing in the first block and in subsequent blocks as editing progresses. REH2 binds its own MRB via RNA, and conserved domains in REH2 were critical for REH2 to associate with the RNA and protein components of its MRB. Importantly, REH2 associates with a ~30 kDa RNA-binding protein in a novel ~15S subcomplex in RNA-depleted mitochondria. We use these new results to update our model of MRB function and organization.

Project description:BackgroundIncreasing evidence has revealed a close relationship between non-coding RNAs and cancer progression. Circular RNAs (circRNAs), a recently identified new member of non-coding RNAs, are demonstrated to participate in diverse biological processes, such as development, homeostatic maintenance and pathological responses. The functions of circRNAs in cancer have drawn wide attention recently. Until now, the expression patterns and roles of circRNAs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) have remained largely unknown.MethodsBioinformatics method was used to screen differentially expressed novel circRNAs in HCC. Northern blotting, qRT-PCR, in situ hybridization (ISH) and RNA-FISH were utilized to analyzed the expression of circRHOT1 in HCC tisues.CCK8, colony formation, EdU assays were used to analyze proliferation of HCC cells. Transwell assay was utilized to analyze HCC cell migration and invasion. FACS was used for apoptosis analysis. Xenograft experiments were used to analyze tumor growth in vivo. Mass spectrum, RNA pulldown, RIP and EMSA was utilized to test the interaction between circRHOT1 and TIP60. RNA-sequencing method was used to analyze the downstream target gene of circRHOT1.ResultsWe identified circRHOT1 (hsa_circRNA_102034) as a conserved and dramatically upregulated circRNA in HCC tissues. HCC patients displaying high circRHOT1 level possessed poor prognosis. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, we demonstrated circRHOT1 significantly promoted HCC growth and metastasis. Regarding the mechanism, we conducted a RNA pulldown with a biotin-labeled circRHOT1-specific probe and found that circRHOT1 recruited TIP60 to the NR2F6 promoter and initiated NR2F6 transcription. Moreover, NR2F6 knockout inhibited growth, migration and invasion, whereas rescuing NR2F6 in circRHOT1-knockout HCC cells rescued the proliferation and metastasis abilities of HCC cells.ConclusionTaken together, circRHOT1 inhibits HCC development and progression via recruiting TIP60 to initiate NR2F6 expression, indicating that circRHOT1 and NR2F6 may be potential biomarkers for HCC prognosis.
