Divergent rRNAs as regulators of gene expression at the ribosome level

ABSTRACT: It is generally assumed that each organism has evolved to possess a unique ribosomal RNA (rRNA) species optimal for its physiological needs. However, some organisms express divergent rRNAs, the functional roles of which remain unknown. Here, we show that ribosomes containing the most variable rRNAs, encoded by the rrnI operon (herein designated I-ribosomes), direct the preferential translation of a subset of mRNAs in Vibrio vulnificus, enabling the rapid adaptation of bacteria to temperature and nutrient shifts. In addition, genetic and functional analyses of I-ribosomes and target mRNAs suggest that both I-ribosomal subunits are required for the preferential translation of specific mRNAs, the Shine-Dalgarno sequences of which do not play a critical role in I-ribosome binding. This study identifies genome-encoded divergent rRNAs as regulators of gene expression at the ribosome level, providing an additional level of regulation of gene expression in bacteria in response to environmental changes.

NGS analysis of RNAs associated with the betaNACtes-containing ribosomes in Drosophila melanogaster testes

Project description:NAC (nascent polypeptide-associated complex) post-meiotic heterodimeric αβ-complex promoting chaperone-like cotranslational protein folding on the ribosome and its early role in the birth of nascent proteins is suggested. Here, we demonstrate the presence of specific NAC complex (NACtes) associated with ribosomes in spermatocytes. The RNAseq analysis of mRNAs associated with testis-specific and immunoprecipitated NACtes-carrying ribosomes revealed a preferential association of the latter with mRNAs encoding meiotic and post meiotic proteins. The NACtes ribosomes are also shown to be enriched in mRNAs encoding proteins of central metabolism pathways that have been reported as overexpressed in testes. The specificity of association of NACtes ribosomes with particular mRNA sets was also demonstrated by the observation of significant underrepresentation of abundant mRNAs encoding ubiquitously expressed ribosomal proteins in NACtes-associated ribosomes. At the same time, NACtes ribosomes are enriched in mRNA encoding a testis specific ribosomal protein. These results bring new arguments in favor of “specialized ribosomes hypothesis” proposing a special composition of ribosomes necessary for the control of selected gene expression.

Anatomy of footprint extension in ribosome profiling reveals translational landscape mediated by S1 protein in bacteria

Project description:Ribosome profiling — RNase footprinting of ribosome-bound mRNA — has been a unique and powerful method, applied to widespread organisms to survey ribosome traversal along mRNAs. In contrast to eukaryotes, bacterial ribosome footprints show a broad range of sizes, reflecting the differential states of ribosomes. However, the origin remains unclear. Here, we show that rotated state of ribosomes and intramolecular RNA duplexes each extend bacterial ribosome footprints at the 5′ end. Combining elongation inhibitors, cryo-electron microscopy, and ribosome profiling, we demonstrated that the rotated state of ribosomes results in long footprints. Along the subunit rotation, ribosomal protein S1 — a 30S-subunit RNA-binding protein — sterically protects mRNA at the 5′ end of the ribosome from RNase digestion and facilitates elongation of the ribosome. Moreover, we found that ribosomes stalled on ycbZ mRNA generate prolonged footprints because of their unique RNA secondary structure proximal to ribosomes. Through the studies of footprint extension, our results revealed S1-mediated stabilization of translation elongation and provide ribosome profiling approach to probe the conformational diversity of ribosomes in bacteria.

Ribosome collisions in bacteria promote ribosome rescue by triggering mRNA cleavage by SmrB

Project description:Ribosome rescue pathways recycle stalled ribosomes and target problematic mRNAs and aborted proteins for degradation. In bacteria, it remains unclear how rescue pathways distinguish ribosomes stalled in the middle of a transcript from actively translating ribosomes. In a genetic screen in E. coli, we discovered a novel rescue factor that has endonuclease activity. SmrB cleaves mRNAs upstream of stalled ribosomes, allowing the ribosome rescue factor tmRNA (which acts on truncated mRNA) to rescue upstream ribosomes. SmrB is recruited by ribosome collisions. Cryo-EM structures of collided disomes from E. coli and B. subtilis reveal interactions between the 30S subunits and a possible SmrB binding site. These findings show that ribosome collisions trigger ribosome rescue in bacteria and reveal the mechanism by which this occurs.

Evidence for rRNA 2'-O-methylation plasticity: control of intrinsic translational capabilities of human ribosomes

Project description:Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) are main effectors of mRNA decoding, peptide-bond formation and ribosome dynamics during translation. Ribose 2'-O-methylation (2'-O-Me) is the most abundant rRNA chemical modification, and display a complex pattern in rRNA. 2'-O-Me was shown to be essential for accurate and efficient protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells. However, whether rRNA 2'-O-Me is an adjustable feature of the human ribosome and a means of regulating ribosome function remains to be determined. Here we challenged rRNA 2'-O-Me globally by inhibiting the rRNA methyl-transferase fibrillarin (FBL) in human cells. Using RiboMethSeq, a non-biased quantitative mapping of 2'-O-Me, we identified a repertoire of 2'-O-Me sites subjected to variation and demonstrate that functional domains of ribosomes are targets of 2'-O-Me plasticity. Using the cricket paralysis virus (CrPV) IRES element, as a model, coupled to in vitro translation, we show that the intrinsic capability of ribosomes to translate mRNAs is modulated through 2'-O-Me pattern and not by non-ribosomal actors of the translational machinery. Our results establish rRNA 2'-O-methylation plasticity as a mechanism providing functional specificity to human ribosomes.

Proteotoxicity from aberrant ribosome biogenesis compromises cell fitness

Project description:To achieve maximal growth, cells must manage a massive economy of ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) and RNAs (rRNAs) to produce thousands of ribosomes every minute. Although ribosomes are essential in all cells, natural disruptions to ribosome biogenesis lead to heterogeneous phenotypes. Here, we model these perturbations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and show that challenges to ribosome biogenesis result in acute loss of proteostasis. Imbalances in the synthesis of r-proteins and rRNAs lead to the rapid aggregation of newly synthesized orphan r-proteins and compromise essential cellular processes, which cells alleviate by activating proteostasis genes. Exogenously bolstering the proteostasis network increases cellular fitness in the face of challenges to ribosome assembly, demonstrating the direct contribution of orphan r-proteins to cellular phenotypes. We propose that ribosome assembly is a key vulnerability of proteostasis maintenance in proliferating cells that may be compromised by diverse genetic, environmental, and xenobiotic perturbations that generate orphan r-proteins.

Znf598-mediated Rps10/eS10 Ubiquitination contributes to the ribosome ubiquitination dynamics during zebrafish development

Project description:The ribosome is a translational apparatus that comprises about 80 ribosomal proteins and four rRNAs. Recent studies reported that ubiquitination of the ribosomal proteins plays a pivotal role in translational control and ribosome-associated quality control (RQC). However, little is known about the dynamics of ribosome ubiquitination under complex biological processes of multicellular organisms. To study ribosome ubiquitination during animal development, we generated a zebrafish strain that expresses a FLAG-tagged ribosomal protein Rpl36/eL36 from its endogenous locus. Combining affinity purification of ribosomes from rpl36-FLAG zebrafish embryos with immunoblotting analysis, we analyzed ribosome ubiquitination during zebrafish development. Our data showed that ubiquitination of ribosomal proteins dynamically changed as development proceeded. We further revealed that Znf598, an E3 ubiquitin ligase that triggers RQC, contributed to the ribosome ubiquitination during zebrafish development. LC-MS/MS analysis and immunoblotting analysis identified lysines 139 of ribosomal protein Rps10/eS10 as pivotal ubiquitination sites on the ribosome during development. Finally, we demonstrated that an Rps10 K139/140R mutation reduced overall ribosome ubiquitination pattern. Collectively, these results reveal dynamics and complexity of ribosome ubiquitination in zebrafish development.

LARP1 senses free ribosomes to coordinate supply and demand of ribosomal proteins

Project description:Terminal oligopyrimidine motif-containing (TOP) mRNAs encode all ribosomal proteins in mammals and are regulated to tune ribosome synthesis to cell state. Previous studies implicate LARP1 in 40S- or 80S-ribosome complexes that repress and stabilize TOP mRNAs. However, a mechanistic understanding of how LARP1 and TOP mRNAs interact with ribosomes to coordinate TOP mRNA outcomes is lacking. Here, we show that LARP1 senses the cellular supply of ribosomes by directly binding non-translating 80S ribosomes. Cryo-EM structures reveal a previously uncharacterized domain of LARP1 bound to and occluding the 40S mRNA channel and mutations at the LARP1-ribosome interface block formation of the 40S/80S-LARP1-TOP complexes. Free cytosolic ribosomes induce sequestration of TOP mRNAs in repressed 80S-LARP1-TOP complexes independent of alterations in mTOR signaling. Together, this work demonstrates a ribosome-sensing function of LARP1 that allows it to tune ribosome protein synthesis to the availability of free ribosomes.

Chaperoning 5S RNA assembly by structural probing

Project description:In eukaryotes, three of the four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), the 5.8S, 18S and 25S/28S rRNAs, are processed from a single pre-rRNA transcript and assembled into ribosomes. The fourth rRNA, the 5S rRNA, is transcribed by RNA polymerase III and is assembled into the 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (5S RNP), containing ribosomal proteins Rpl5/uL18 and Rpl11/uL5, prior to its incorporation into pre-ribosomes. In mammals the 5S RNP is also central regulator of the homeostasis of the tumour suppressor p53. The nucleolar localisation of the 5S RNP and its assembly into pre-ribosomes is performed by a specialised complex composed of Rpf2 and Rrs1 in yeast or Bxdc1 and hRrs1 in humans. Here we report the structural and functional characterisation of the Rpf2-Rrs1 complex alone, in complex with the 5S RNA and within pre-60S ribosomes. We show that the Rpf2-Rrs1 complex contains a specialised 5S RNA E loop binding module, contacts the Rpl5 protein and also contacts the ribosome assembly factor Rsa4 and the 25S RNA. We propose that the Rpf2-Rrs1 complex establishes a network of interactions that guide the incorporation of the 5S RNP in pre-ribosomes in the initial conformation prior to its rotation to form the central protuberance found in the mature large ribosomal subunit.

Molecular basis of mRNA delivery to the bacterial ribosome by bS1 protein and RNA polymerase

Project description:The initiation of translation begins with formation of a ribosome-mRNA complex. In bacteria, the 30S ribosomal subunit is recruited to many mRNAs through both base pairing with the Shine Dalgarno (SD) sequence and RNA-binding by ribosomal protein bS1. Translation can initiate on mRNAs that are being transcribed, and RNA polymerase (RNAP) can promote recruitment of the pioneering 30S. Here we have examined ribosome recruitment to mRNAs using cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM), single-molecule fluorescence co-localization, and whole-cell cross-linking mass spectrometry. Structures of 30S-mRNA complexes show that bS1 delivers the mRNA to the ribosome for SD duplex formation and initial 30S subunit activation. RNAP associates flexibly with the 30S platform during nascent mRNA delivery and accelerates their association in a bS1-dependent manner in vitro. Collectively, our data provide a mechanistic framework for how the SD duplex, ribosomal proteins and RNAP cooperate in 30S recruitment to mRNAs and thereby establish transcription-translation coupling.
