Coordinated regulation of Arabidopsis microRNA biogenesis and red light signaling through Dicer-like 1 and phytochrome-interacting factor 4

ABSTRACT: Light and microRNAs (miRNAs) are key external and internal signals for plant development respectively. However the relationship between light signaling and miRNA biogenesis pathways remains unknown. Here we found that miRNA processer DCL1/HYL1 interacts with a basic helix–loop–helix (bHLH) transcription factor, phytochrome-interacting factor 4 (PIF4), which mediates the destabilization of DCL1 during dark-red light transition. PIF4 acts as a transcription factor for some miRNA genes and is necessary for the proper accumulation of miRNAs. DCL1/HYL1 and mature miRNAs play roles in the regulation of plant hypocotyl growth. These results uncovered a previously unknown crosstalk between miRNA biogenesis and red light signaling through the PIF4-dependent regulation of miRNA transcription and processing to affect red light-directed plant photomorhogenesis.

Small RNAs in Arabidopsis hyl1 and hyl1 suppressor mutants

Project description:DCL1 and HYL1 are the core components of miRNA biogenesis machinery. hyl1-null mutants accumulate low levels of miRNAs and cause pleiotropic morphological phenotypes. Here, we reported that we identified 5 new alleles of DCL1 which are able to suppress the hyl1 morphological phenotypes and restore the miRNA accumulation level in hyl1 plants. These new alleles are located in the helicase and RNaseIIIa domains of DCL1, highlighting the critical functions of these domains. Biochemical analyses of these suppressors indicated that they process pri-miRNA more efficiently, with both higher Kcat and lower Km values. In addition, we investigated the functions of the DCL1 helicase domain. Our results indicated that the helicase domain is able to modulate the DCL1 processing activities. Based on these results, we proposed that HYL1 might exert its function through interaction with the DCL1 helicase domain. Small RNA sequencing from hyl1 and select hyl1/dcl1 suppressor mutants confirms thats suppression of the hyl1 phenotype is due to an increase in the accumulation, but not the precision, of miRNAs in the suppressor mutants. Wild-type, hyl1-2, hyl1-2/dcl1-20, and hyl1-2/dcl1-21 plants were sampled from both rosette leaves and flowers.

MicroRNA156 conditions auxin sensitivity to enable growth plasticity in response to environmental changes in Arabidopsis (RNA-Seq)

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play diverse roles in plant development, but whether and how miRNAs participate in thermomorphogenesis remains ambiguous. Here we show that HYPONASTIC LEAVES1 (HYL1) – a key component of microRNA biogenesis – acts downstream of the thermal regulator PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 4 in temperature-dependent plasticity of hypocotyl growth in Arabidopsis. A hyl1-2 suppressor screen identified a dominant dicer-like1 (dcl1) allele, dcl1-24, that rescues hyl1-2’s defects in miRNA biosynthesis and warm temperature-induced hypocotyl elongation. Genome-wide miRNA and transcriptome analysis reveal microRNA156 (miR156) and its target SQUAMOSA PROMOTER-BINDING-LIKE 9 (SPL9) as critical regulators of thermomorphogenesis. Surprisingly, perturbation of the miR156/SPL9 module disengages seedling responsiveness to warm temperatures by impeding auxin sensitivity. Moreover, the miR156-dependent auxin sensitivity also operates in the shade avoidance response at lower temperatures. Thus, these results unveil the miRNA156/SPL9 module as a previously-uncharacterized genetic circuitry that enables plant growth plasticity in response to environmental temperature and light changes.

Understanding the structure/sequence preference of plant miRNA biogenesis machinery

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ~21nt long endogenous non-coding RNAs that are involved in post-transcriptional silencing of target mRNAs. miRNAs are processed from precursors having a stem-loop structure that are recognized and cleaved by Dicer-like 1 (DCL1) with the help of dsRNA binding protein Hyponastic leaves 1 (HYL1) and a zinc finger protein named Serrate (SE). Plant miRNA stem-loops are very diverse in length and structure than animal miRNAs. Hence, mechanism of miRNA biogenesis from their precursors is poorly understood. Our bioinformatic analysis predicted that plant miRNAs have unique sequence signature. An artificial precursor with different predicted sequence signatures was constructed. This construct was expressed transiently in tobacco leaves and small RNAs were sequenced. Our analysis revealed that indeed the predicted sequence signature is prefered by plant miRNA biogenesis machinery.

The role of HYL1 in MIR genes transcription

Project description:HYL1 (DRB1) is a double-stranded RNA-binding protein involved in miRNA processing in plants. It is a core component of the Microprocessor complex and enhances the efficiency and precision of miRNA processing by the DCL1 protein. In this work, we report a novel function of HYL1 protein in the transcription of MIR genes. DRB1 co-localizes with RNA Polymerase II and affects its distribution along MIR genes. Moreover, proteomic experiments revealed that HYL1 protein interacts with many transcription factors. Finally, we show that the action of DRB1 is not limited to MIR genes as it impacts the expression of many other genes, the majority of which are involved in plant response to light. These discoveries add DRB1 as another player in gene regulation at the transcriptional level, independent of its role in miRNA biogenesis.

A Role for the RNA-Binding Protein MOS2 in MicroRNA Maturation in Arabidopsis

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in the regulation of gene expression. In Arabidopsis, mature miRNAs are processed from primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) by nuclear HYL1/SE/DCL1 complexes that form Dicing bodies (D-bodies). Here we report that a RNA-binding protein MOS2 bound to pri-miRNAs and was required for their efficient processing. MOS2 did not interact with HYL1, SE, and DCL1 and was not localized in D-bodies. Interestingly, in the absence of MOS2, the recruitment of pri-miRNAs by HYL1 was greatly reduced and the localization of HYL1 in D-bodies was compromised. These data suggest that MOS2 facilitates pri-miRNA processing through facilitating the recruitment of pri-miRNAs by the Dicing complexes.

Small RNAs in tgh-1 mutant

Project description:miRNAs are regulators of gene expression in plants and animals. Their biogenesis is precisely controlled to secure normal development of organisms. Here we report that TOUGH (TGH) is a novel component of DCL1-HYL1-SE complex that processes of primary transcripts of miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) into miRNAs in Arabidopsis. Lack of TGH impairs multiple DCL activities in vitro and reduces the accumulation of miRNAs and siRNAs in vivo. TGH is an RNA binding protein, binds with pri-miRNAs in vivo and contributes to pri-miRNA-HYL1interaction. These results indicate that TGH might regulate abundance of miRNAs through promoting the DCL1 cleavage efficiency and/or recruitment of pri-miRNAs. Because TGH is a conserved protein in plants and animals, our study shall have implications on miRNA pathway in other organisms tgh-1 mutant vs. wild type
