Small RNA libraries

ABSTRACT: Many evolutionarily conserved miRNAs in plants regulate transcription factors with key functions in plant development. Hence, mutations in core components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery causes strong growth defects. An essential aspect of miRNA biogenesis is the precise excision of the small RNA from an arm of the fold-back precursor. Defects in the selection of the correct miRNA sequence will ultimately affect miRNA target specificity, plant development and other processes controlled by these small RNAs. Intriguingly, plant miRNA precursors are largely variable in size and shape and can be processed by different modes. Here, we optimized genomic approaches to detect processing intermediates during miRNA biogenesis. We identified and characterized an endogenous miRNA whose processing is triggered by a terminal branched loop. Plant miRNA processing can be initiated by internal bubbles, small terminal loops or branched loops followed by dsRNA segments of 15-17 bp. Interestingly, precision and efficiency vary with the processing modes suggesting intrinsic differences between miRNA biogenesis pathways. Despite the various potential structural determinants present in a single a miRNA precursor, we found that DCL1 is mostly guided by a predominant structural region in each precursor in wild-type plants. However, genomic studies of miRNA processing intermediates in fiery1, hyl1 and se mutants revealed the existence of cleavage signatures consistent with the recognition of alternative or cryptic processing determinants in miRNA precursors. The results provide a general view of the mechanisms underlying the specificity of miRNA biogenesis in plants.

Multiple RNA recognition patterns during microRNA biogenesis in plants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are processed from longer precursors with fold-back structures. While animal MIRNA precursors have homogenous structures, plant precursors comprise a collection of fold-backs with variable size and shape. Here, we design an approach (SPARE) to systematically analyze miRNA processing intermediates and characterize the biogenesis of most of the evolutionary conserved miRNAs present in Arabidopsis thaliana. We found that plant MIRNAs are processed by four mechanisms, depending on the sequential direction of the processing machinery and the number of cuts required to release the miRNA. Classification of the precursors according to their processing mechanism revealed specific structural determinants for each group. We found that the complexity of the miRNA processing pathways occurs in both ancient and evolutionary young sequences, and that members of the same family can be processed in different ways. We observed that different structural determinants compete for the processing machinery and that alternative miRNAs can be generated from a single precursor. The results provide a mechanistic explanation for the structural diversity of MIRNA precursors in plants and new insights towards the understanding of the biogenesis of small RNAs. Approach to systematically analyze miRNA processing intermediates and characterize the biogenesis of conserved and young miRNAs present in Arabidopsis thaliana. MiRNA processing intermediates profiles of Wild type and Fiery mutants Arabidopsis plants were analyzed, using Illumina GAIIx.

Prevalent cytidylation and uridylation of precursor miRNAs in Arabidopsis

Project description:A key step in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is the processing of a primary precursor RNA by the microprocessor into a precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) intermediate. In plants, little is known about the processes that act on pre-miRNAs to influence miRNA biogenesis. Here, we performed 3’ RACE-seq to profile pre-miRNA 3’ ends in Arabidopsis. 3’ end heterogeneity was prevalent and the three microprocessor components promoted 3’ end precision. Extensive cytidylation and uridylation of precise and imprecise pre-miRNA 3’ ends were uncovered. The nucleotidyl transferase HESO1 uridylated pre-miRNAs in vitro and was responsible for most pre-miRNA uridylation in vivo. HESO1, NTP6 and NTP7 contribute to pre-miRNA cytidylation. Tailing of pre-miRNAs tended to restore trimmed pre-miRNAs to intact lengths to promote further processing. In addition, HESO1-mediated uridylation led to the degradation of some imprecisely processed pre-miRNAs. Thus, we uncovered widespread cytidylation and uridylation of pre-miRNAs and demonstrated diverse functions of pre-miRNA tailing in plants.

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

Project description: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.

Linking Key Steps of MicroRNA Biogenesis by TREX-2 and the Nuclear Pore Complex in Arabidopsis [mRNA-Seq]

Project description:Unlike in metazoans, the stepwise biogenesis of microRNAs (miRNAs) occurs within the nucleus in plants. Whether or how the major steps in miRNA biogenesis are coordinated is largely unknown. Here, we show that the plant TREX-2 complex promotes multiple steps in miRNA biogenesis, including transcription, processing and nuclear export. Core subunits of TREX-2, THP1 and SAC3A, interact and co-localize with RNA Polymerase II to promote the transcription of MIR genes in the nucleoplasm. TREX-2 interacts with the microprocessor component SERRATE and promotes the formation of Dicing bodies in the nucleoplasm. THP1 also interacts and co-localizes with a nucleoporin protein NUP1 at the nuclear envelope. NUP1 and THP1 promote the nuclear export of miRNAs and AGO1. These results suggest that TREX-2 coordinates the transcription, processing and export steps in miRNA biogenesis to ensure efficient miRNA production.

Genome-wide quantification of microRNA processing efficiency from RNA-seq data

Project description:Microprocessor is responsible for conversion of pri-miRNA transcripts into pre-miRNA hairpins in miRNA biogenesis. The in vivo properties of this process remain enigmatic. Here, we present the first study of in vivo transcriptome-wide pri-miRNA processing using next-generation sequencing of chromatin-associated pri-miRNAs. We identify a distinctive Microprocessor signature in the transcriptome profile, from which efficiency of the endogenous processing event can be accurately quantified. This analysis reveals differential susceptibility to Microprocessor cleavage as a key regulatory step in miRNA biogenesis. Processing is highly variable among pri-miRNAs and a better predictor of miRNA abundance than primary transcription itself. Processing is also largely stable across three cell lines, suggesting a major contribution of sequence determinants. Based on differential processing efficiencies we define functionality for short sequence features adjacent to the pre-miRNA hairpin. In conclusion, we identify Microprocessor as the main hub for diversified miRNA output and suggest a role for uncoupling miRNA biogenesis from host gene expression.

The nucleolar protein NOL12 is required for processing of large ribosomal subunit rRNA precursors in Arabidopsis

Project description:NOL12 5'-3' exoribonucleases, conserved among eukaryotes, play important roles in pre-rRNA processing, ribosome assembly and export. The most well-described yeast counterpart, Rrp17, is required for maturation of 5.8 and 25S rRNAs, whereas human hNOL12 is crucial for the separation of the large (LSU) and small (SSU) ribosome subunit rRNA precursors. In this study we demonstrate that plant AtNOL12 is also involved in rRNA biogenesis, specifically in the processing of the LSU rRNA precursor, 27S pre-rRNA. Importantly, the absence of AtNOL12 alters the expression of many ribosomal protein and ribosome biogenesis genes. These changes could potentially exacerbate rRNA biogenesis defects, or, conversely, they might stem from the disturbed ribosome assembly caused by delayed pre-rRNA processing. Moreover, exposure of the nol12 mutant to stress factors, including heat and pathogen Pseudomonas syringae, enhances the observed molecular phenotypes, linking pre-rRNA processing to stress response pathways. The aberrant rRNA processing, dependent on AtNOL12, could impact ribosome function, as suggested by improved mutant resistance to ribosome-targeting antibiotics. Despite extensive studies, the pre-rRNA processing pathway in plants remains insufficiently characterized. Our investigation reveals the involvement of AtNOL12 in the maturation of rRNA precursors, correlating this process to stress response in Arabidopsis. These findings contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of plant ribosome biogenesis.

Global characterization of the Dicer-like protein DrnB roles in miRNA biogenesis in the social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum

Project description:Micro (mi)RNAs regulate gene expression in many eukaryotic organisms where they control diverse biological processes. Their biogenesis, from primary transcripts to mature miRNAs, have been extensively characterized in animals and plants, showing distinct differences between these phylogenetically distant groups of organisms. However, little is known about miRNA biogenesis in organisms whose evolutionary position is placed in between plants and animals and/or in unicellular organisms. Here, we investigate miRNA maturation in the unicellular amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum, belonging to Amoebozoa, which branched out after plants but before animals. High-throughput sequencing of small RNAs and poly(A)-selected RNAs demonstrated that the Dicer-like protein DrnB is required, and essentially specific, for global miRNA maturation in D. discoideum. Our RNA-seq data also showed that longer miRNA transcripts accumulate in a drnB knock-out strain, generally preceded by a T-rich putative promoter motif. For two model miRNAs we defined the transcriptional start sites (TSSs) of primary (pri)-miRNAs and showed that they carry the RNA polymerase II specific m7G-cap. Different biogenesis pathways generate the 3’ ends of these pri-miRNAs, where pri-mir-1177 reads into the downstream gene, while pri-mir-1176 has a distinct non-polyadenylated end. This 3´-end is processed to shorter intermediates, stabilized in DrnB-depleted cells, of which some carry a short oligo(A)-tail. Furthermore, we identified 10 new miRNAs, all DrnB dependent and developmentally regulated. Thus, the miRNA machinery in D. discoideum shares features with both plants and animals, which is in agreement with its evolutionary position and perhaps also an adaptation to its complex lifestyle: unicellular growth and multicellular development.
