5’ half of specific tRNAs feeds back to promote corresponding tRNA gene transcription in vertebrate embryos [tRNA-seq]

Project description:5’tRFls are small tRNA fragments derived from 5’ half of mature tRNAs. However, it is unknown whether 5’tRFls could feed back to regulate tRNA biogenesis. Here we show that 5’tRFlGly/GCC and 5’tRFlGlu/CTC function to promote transcription of corresponding tRNA genes and are essential for vertebrate early embryogenesis. During zebrafish embryogenesis, dynamics of 5’tRFlGly/GCC and 5’tRFlGlu/CTC levels correlates with that of tRNAGly/GCC and tRNAGlu/CTC levels. Morpholino-mediated knockdown of 5’tRFlGly/GCC or 5’tRFlGlu/CTC down-regulates tRNAGly/GCC or tRNAGlu/CTC levels respectively, and causes embryonic lethality that is efficiently rescued by co-injection of properly refolded corresponding tRNA. In zebrafish embryos, tRNA:DNA and 5’tRFl:DNA hybrids commonly exist on the template strand of tRNA genes. Mechanistically, unstable 5’tRFl:DNA hybrid may prevent the formation of transcriptionally inhibitory stable tRNA:DNA hybrids on the same tRNA loci so as to facilitate tRNA genes transcription. The uncovered mechanism may be implicated in other physiological and pathological processes.

Bub1 autophosphorylation feeds back to regulate kinetochore docking and promote localized substrate phosphorylation.

Project description:During mitosis, Bub1 kinase phosphorylates histone H2A-T120 to promote centromere sister chromatid cohesion through recruitment of shugoshin (Sgo) proteins. The regulation and dynamics of H2A-T120 phosphorylation are poorly understood. Using quantitative phosphoproteomics we show that Bub1 is autophosphorylated at numerous sites. We confirm mitosis-specific autophosphorylation of a several residues and show that Bub1 activation is primed in interphase but fully achieved only in mitosis. Mutation of a single autophosphorylation site T589 alters kinetochore turnover of Bub1 and results in uniform H2A-T120 phosphorylation and Sgo recruitment along chromosome arms. Consequently, improper sister chromatid resolution and chromosome segregation errors are observed. Kinetochore tethering of Bub1-T589A refocuses H2A-T120 phosphorylation and Sgo1 to centromeres. Recruitment of the Bub1-Bub3-BubR1 axis to kinetochores has recently been extensively studied. Our data provide novel insight into the regulation and kinetochore residency of Bub1 and indicate that its localization is dynamic and tightly controlled through feedback autophosphorylation.

tRNAs promote nuclear import of HIV-1 intracellular reverse transcription complexes.

Project description:Infection of non-dividing cells is a biological property of HIV-1 crucial for virus transmission and AIDS pathogenesis. This property depends on nuclear import of the intracellular reverse transcription and pre-integration complexes (RTCs/PICs). To identify cellular factors involved in nuclear import of HIV-1 RTCs, cytosolic extracts were fractionated by chromatography and import activity examined by the nuclear import assay. A near-homogeneous fraction was obtained, which was active in inducing nuclear import of purified and labeled RTCs. The active fraction contained tRNAs, mostly with defective 3' CCA ends. Such tRNAs promoted HIV-1 RTC nuclear import when synthesized in vitro. Active tRNAs were incorporated into and recovered from virus particles. Mutational analyses indicated that the anticodon loop mediated binding to the viral complex whereas the T-arm may interact with cellular factors involved in nuclear import. These tRNA species efficiently accumulated into the nucleus on their own in a energy- and temperature-dependent way. An HIV-1 mutant containing MLV gag did not incorporate tRNA species capable of inducing HIV-1 RTC nuclear import and failed to infect cell cycle-arrested cells. Here we provide evidence that at least some tRNA species can be imported into the nucleus of human cells and promote HIV-1 nuclear import.

tRNA Fragments Populations Analysis in Mutants Affecting tRNAs Processing and tRNA Methylation.

Project description:tRNA fragments (tRFs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) derived from tRNAs. tRFs are highly abundant in many cell types including stem cells and cancer cells, and are found in all domains of life. Beyond translation control, tRFs have several functions ranging from transposon silencing to cell proliferation control. However, the analysis of tRFs presents specific challenges and their biogenesis is not well understood. They are very heterogeneous and highly modified by numerous post-transcriptional modifications. Here we describe a bioinformatic pipeline (tRFs-Galaxy) to study tRFs populations and shed light onto tRNA fragments biogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster. Indeed, we used small RNAs Illumina sequencing datasets extracted from wild type and mutant ovaries affecting two different highly conserved steps of tRNA biogenesis: 5'pre-tRNA processing (RNase-P subunit Rpp30) and tRNA 2'-O-methylation (dTrm7_34 and dTrm7_32). Using our pipeline, we show how defects in tRNA biogenesis affect nuclear and mitochondrial tRFs populations and other small non-coding RNAs biogenesis, such as small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs). This tRF analysis workflow will advance the current understanding of tRFs biogenesis, which is crucial to better comprehend tRFs roles and their implication in human pathology.

Chemically Acylated tRNAs are Functional in Zebrafish Embryos.

Project description:Genetic code expansion has pushed protein chemistry past the canonical 22 amino acids. The key enzymes that make this possible are engineered aminoacyl tRNA synthetases. However, as the number of genetically encoded amino acids has increased over the years, obvious limits in the type and size of novel side chains that can be accommodated by the synthetase enzyme become apparent. Here, we show that chemically acylating tRNAs allow for robust, site-specific incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins in zebrafish embryos, an important model organism for human health and development. We apply this approach to incorporate a unique photocaged histidine analogue for which synthetase engineering efforts have failed. Additionally, we demonstrate optical control over different enzymes in live embryos by installing photocaged histidine into their active sites.
