High-throughput 5'P sequencing enables the study of degradation-associated ribosome stalls.

ABSTRACT: RNA degradation is critical for gene expression and mRNA quality control. mRNA degradation is connected to the translation process up to the degree that 5'-3' mRNA degradation follows the last translating ribosome. Here, we present an improved high-throughput 5'P degradome RNA-sequencing method (HT-5Pseq). HT-5Pseq is easy, scalable, and uses affordable duplex-specific nuclease-based rRNA depletion. We investigate in vivo ribosome stalls focusing on translation termination. By comparing ribosome stalls identified by ribosome profiling, disome-seq and HT-5Pseq, we find that degradation-associated ribosome stalls are often enriched in Arg preceding the stop codon. On the contrary, mRNAs depleted for those stalls use more frequently a TAA stop codon preceded by hydrophobic amino acids. Finally, we show that termination stalls found by HT-5Pseq, and not by other approaches, are associated with decreased mRNA stability. Our work suggests that ribosome stalls associated with mRNA decay can be easily captured by investigating the 5'P degradome.

Project description:BackgroundThe invention of the Genome Sequence 20 DNA Sequencing System (454 parallel sequencing platform) has enabled the rapid and high-volume production of sequence data. Until now, however, individual emulsion PCR (emPCR) reactions and subsequent sequencing runs have been unable to combine template DNA from multiple individuals, as homologous sequences cannot be subsequently assigned to their original sources.MethodologyWe use conventional PCR with 5'-nucleotide tagged primers to generate homologous DNA amplification products from multiple specimens, followed by sequencing through the high-throughput Genome Sequence 20 DNA Sequencing System (GS20, Roche/454 Life Sciences). Each DNA sequence is subsequently traced back to its individual source through 5'tag-analysis.ConclusionsWe demonstrate that this new approach enables the assignment of virtually all the generated DNA sequences to the correct source once sequencing anomalies are accounted for (miss-assignment rate<0.4%). Therefore, the method enables accurate sequencing and assignment of homologous DNA sequences from multiple sources in single high-throughput GS20 run. We observe a bias in the distribution of the differently tagged primers that is dependent on the 5' nucleotide of the tag. In particular, primers 5' labelled with a cytosine are heavily overrepresented among the final sequences, while those 5' labelled with a thymine are strongly underrepresented. A weaker bias also exists with regards to the distribution of the sequences as sorted by the second nucleotide of the dinucleotide tags. As the results are based on a single GS20 run, the general applicability of the approach requires confirmation. However, our experiments demonstrate that 5'primer tagging is a useful method in which the sequencing power of the GS20 can be applied to PCR-based assays of multiple homologous PCR products. The new approach will be of value to a broad range of research areas, such as those of comparative genomics, complete mitochondrial analyses, population genetics, and phylogenetics.
