Biogenesis of a young, 22-nt microRNA in Phaseoleae species by precursor-programmed uridylation

ABSTRACT: Phased, secondary siRNAs (phasiRNAs) represent a class of small RNAs in plants generated via distinct biogenesis pathways, predominantly dependent on the activity of 22 nt miRNAs. Most 22 nt miRNAs are processed by DCL1 from miRNA precursors containing an asymmetric bulge, yielding a 22/21 nt miRNA/miRNA* duplex. Here we show that miR1510, a soybean miRNA capable of triggering phasiRNA production from numerous NB-LRRs, previously described as 21 nt in its mature form, primarily accumulates as a 22 nt isoform via monouridylation. We demonstrate that in Arabidopsis, this uridylation is performed by HESO1. Biochemical experiments showed that the 3' terminus of miR1510 is only partially 2'-O-methylated, because of the terminal mispairing in the miR1510/miR1510* duplex that inhibits HEN1 activity in soybean. miR1510 emerged in the Phaseoleae ~41 to 42 MYA with a conserved precursor structure yielding a 22 nt monouridylated form, yet a variant in mung bean is processed directly in a 22 nt mature form. This analysis of miR1510 yields two observations: (1) plants can utilize post-processing modification to generate abundant 22 nt miRNA isoforms to more efficiently regulate target mRNA abundances; (2) comparative analysis demonstrates an example of selective optimization of precursor processing of a young plant miRNA.

miRNA* loading on Ago2

Project description:In flies, microRNAs (miRNAs) are synthesized as a short imperfect duplex, where the miRNA is paired to another small RNA, dubbed the "miRNA*". Usually, miRNA*s are degraded in the last steps of miRNA maturation, but we found evidence that some of them can be loaded on the Ago2 protein. Small RNAs (18-29 nt) from fly heads (WT, ago2 mutants, dcr-2 homozygous and heterozygous mutants) were sequenced using a Solexa Genome Analyzer instrument. The ago2 cDNA library was loaded twice on the instrument, yielding two technical replicates.

Small RNA from Arabidopsis thaliana with RNA silencing directed to Chalcone Synthase (At5G13930) by a hairpin RNA, a 21-nt artificial miRNA and a 22-nt artificial miRNA in the pap1-D over-expressing background

Project description:22-nucleotide (nt) microRNAs (miRNAs) derived from asymmetric duplexes trigger trans-acting phased small interfering RNA (tphasiRNA) production from complementary targets. Here we investigate the efficacy of 22-nt artificial miRNA (amiRNA) mediated RNA silencing relative to conventional hairpin RNA (hpRNA) and 21-nt amiRNA mediated RNA silencing. CHALCONE SYNTHASE (CHS) was selected as a target in Arabidopsis thaliana due to the obvious and non-lethal loss of anthocyanin accumulation upon widespread RNA silencing. Over-expression of CHS in the pap1-D background facilitated visual detection of both local and systemic RNA silencing. RNA silencing was initiated in leaf tissues from hpRNA and amiRNA plant expression vectors under the control of an Arabidopsis RuBisCo small subunit 1A promoter (SSU). In this system, hpRNA expression triggered CHS silencing in most leaf tissues but not in roots or seed coats. Similarly, 21-nt amiRNA expression from symmetric miRNA/miRNA* duplexes triggered CHS silencing in all leaf tissues but not in roots or seed coats. However, 22-nt amiRNA expression from an asymmetric duplex triggered CHS silencing in all tissues, including roots and seed coats, in the majority of plant lines. This widespread CHS silencing required RNA DEPENDENT RNA POLYMERASE6 mediated accumulation of phasiRNAs from the endogenous CHS transcript. These results demonstrate the efficacy of asymmetric 22-nt amiRNA-directed RNA silencing and associated phasiRNA production and activity, in mediating widespread RNA silencing of an endogenous target gene. Asymmetric 22-nt amiRNA directed RNA silencing requires little modification of existing amiRNA technology and is expected to be effective in suppressing other genes and/or members of gene families.

Structural basis for pre-miRNA-31 biogenesis

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that regulate protein gene expression post-transcriptionally. By base pairing with target mRNAs, miRNAs triggers mRNA degradation or translational suppression[1-4]. Abnormal miRNAs levels are associated with cancers, diabetes, neurological and other diseases[5-8]. RNA polymerase II transcribes primary miRNA (pri-miR) in the nucleus and pri-miRs are subsequently processed by Microprocessor, which is composed of Drosha and DiGeorge syndrome critical region 8 (DGCR8) proteins, to generate precursor miRNAs (pre-miRs). Pre-miRs are exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm in a GTP-dependent manner by Exportin-5. In the cytoplasm, a pre-miRs are further processed by Dicer to generate 21-22 nt mature miRNA[4, 9]. Argonaute (Ago) protein loads one of mature miRNAs into protein and forms miRNA-induced silencing complex, which is responsible for mRNA degradation or translational suppression[2, 4].

Persistence of seed-based activity following microRNA segmentation

Project description:microRNAs are M-bM-^HM-<22 nucleotide regulatory RNAs that are processed into duplexes from hairpin structures and incorporated into Argonaute proteins. We find that a nick in the middle of the guide strand of an miRNA sequence allows for seed-based targeting characteristic of miRNA activity. Insertion of an inverted abasic, a dye, or a small gap between the two segments still permits target knockdown. While activity from the seed region of the segmented miRNA is apparent, activity from the 3' half of the guide strand is impaired, suggesting that an intact guide backbone is required for contribution from the 3' half. miRNA activity was also observed following nicking of a miRNA precursor. These results illustrate a structural flexibility in miRNA duplexes and may have applications in the design of miRNA mimetics. For the microarray portion of the paper, a miR-124 duplex containing a segmented guide strand (G10.12/P) or an intact guide strand (G/P) was transfected into HCT-116 dicer- cells. Profiles were compared with mock transfections.

miRNAs target conserved motifs of diverse genes encoding NB-LRRs to trigger trans-acting siRNAs in legumes.

Project description:Trans-acting siRNAs (tasiRNAs) negatively regulate target transcripts and are characterized by siRNAs spaced in 21-nucleotide 'phased' intervals. TasiRNAs have not been extensively described in many plant species. We identified dozens of new miRNAs in Medicago and soybean and confirmed 119 Medicago targets. A search for phased tasiRNA-like small RNAs ('phasiRNAs') found at least 114 Medicago loci, the majority of which were NB-LRR encoding genes. Notably, conserved domains in NB-LRR-encoding RNAs are targeted by several 22-nt miRNA families to trigger phasiRNA production. DCL2 and SGS3 transcripts were also cleaved by these 22-nt miRNAs, generating phased small RNAs, suggesting synchronization between silencing and pathogen defense pathways. A second example of 'two-hit' phasiRNA processing was identified, utilizing miR156-miR172 sites. Our data illustrate a complex tasiRNA-mediated regulatory circuit that potentially modulates plant-microbe interactions. A few miRNA triggers regulate an extremely large gene family by targeting highly conserved protein motif-encoding sequences, representing a new paradigm for miRNA function.

PARN mediates 3'-end trimming of Argonaute-cleaved precursor microRNAs

Project description:microRNAs (miRNAs) are typically generated as ~22-nucleotide double-stranded RNAs via processing of precursor hairpins by the RNase III enzyme Dicer, after which they are loaded into Argonaute (Ago) proteins to form RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). However, the biogenesis of miR-451, an erythropoietic miRNA conserved in vertebrates, does not require Dicer processing. Instead, the short pre-miR-451 precursor hairpin is directly loaded into Ago, followed by cleavage of the 3' arm and trimming of the 3' end to the mature length by PARN. Here we show the in vivo activity of miR-430 Ago2-hairpin, a canonical microRNA engineered to fit the structure of miR-451 and hence become Ago2-dependent. Moreover, we test a modified miR-430 Ago2-haipin with 3x phoshorothioate bonds that impairs trimmng. Surprisingly, our data show that trimming of Ago-cleaved pre-miRNAs is not essential for target silencing, indicating that RISC is functional with miRNAs longer than 22-nucleotides. Rescue of MZdicer zebrafish mutant with the injection of trimmable and nontrimmable miR-430 Ago2 hairpins: Transcriptome of wild type, MZdicer mutant, and MZdicer mutant micoinjected with miR-430 duplex, miR-430 (Ago2-haripin), miR-430 (Ago2-haripin 3xPhosphorothioate)

The effects of the 5' pocket motif of Dicer on miRNA biogenesis

Project description:A hallmark of RNA silencing is a class of ~22 nt RNAs which are processed from dsRNA precursor by Dicer. Accurate processing by Dicer is critical for the functionality of microRNAs (miRNAs). According to the current model, Dicer measures the length by anchoring the 3' overhang of the dsRNA terminus. Here we find that human Dicer binds to the 5' end of RNA and utilizes the 5' end as an additional reference point for cleavage site selection (5' counting rule). We further identify a novel motif (5'-pocket) in Dicer, which recognizes the 5' end of RNA. By analyzing miRNA population from 5'-pocket mutant Dicer expressing Dicer-null mES, we provide that the 5' pocket is significant for Dicer processing in vivo.

Small RNA mediated immune responses: insights from analyses of nine soybean R-gene near-isogenic lines and their susceptible parent

Project description:Small RNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are negative regulators to target endogenous genes and repetitive sequences in plants. Although miRNAs and trans-acting or phased siRNAs (tasiRNAs or phasiRNAs) were found to target hundreds of disease related genes in Medicago, their role in plant-pathogen interactions in the legumes, particularly the R genes mediated interaction of soybean and the pathogen Phytophthora sojae is poorly understood. A deep sequencing was performed on nine soybean near isogenic lines (NILs) each carrying an Rps (Resistance to Phytophthora sojae) gene and their recurrent parent “Williams”, with sampling performed both pre- and post-inoculation with P. sojae. From these data, 44 known MIRNA loci with new miRNA variants, 78 novel miRNAs corresponding to 108 precursors, and 208 phasiRNA-producing (PHAS) loci were identified. Our data showed that overall the expression levels of miRNAs, phasiRNAs and siRNAs were extensively down-regulated after pathogen-inoculation. Moreover, the down-regulation levels in the nine resistant NILs were significantly higher than that detected in the susceptible Williams, and variations of small RNA expression within the resistant NILs were also observed, suggesting the molecular responses of different Rps lines are distinct. Surprisingly, the expression level changes of 21-nt phasiRNAs were significantly positively correlated with that of the corresponding mRNA level of the PHAS genes, suggesting the cascade effects of miRNA triggers on the downstream PHAS genes and phasiRNAs. Our data provided a comprehensive picture regarding small RNA based regulation of target genes, particularly NB-LRRs, involved in the responses to the pathogen. 20 samples were sequenced, 10 inoculated with P. sojae, the other 10 were mock-inoculated
