NF90 Modulates Processing of a Subset of Human Pri-miRNAs

ABSTRACT: This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. MicroRNAs are predicted to regulate the expression of more than 60% of mammalian genes and play fundamental roles in most biological processes. Deregulation of miRNA expression is a hallmark of most cancers and further investigation of mechanisms controlling miRNA biogenesis is needed. The dsRNA-binding protein, NF90 has been shown to act as a competitor of Microprocessor for a limited number of pri-miRNAs. Here, we show that NF90 has a more widespread effect on pri-miRNA biogenesis than previously thought. Genome-wide approaches revealed that NF90 is associated with the stem region of 38 pri-miRNAs, in a manner that is largely exclusive of Microprocessor. Following loss of NF90, 25 NF90-bound pri-miRNAs showed increased abundance of mature miRNA products. NF90-targeted pri-miRNAs are highly stable, having a lower free energy and fewer mismatches compared to all pri-miRNAs. Mutations leading to less stable structures reduced NF90 binding while increasing pri-miRNA stability led to ac quisition of NF90 association, as determined by RNA EMSA. NF90-bound and modulated pri-miRNAs are embedded in introns of host genes and expression of several is concomitantly modulated, including an oncogene implicated in metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma, TIAM2. These data suggest that NF90 controls the processing of a subset of highly stable, intronic miRNAs.

Expression data from human T24 cells transfected with siNC or siNF90

Project description:NF90 is a double-stranded RNA binding protein that takes part in microRNA biogenesis, as a competitor for the association of the microprocessor complex with pri-miRNAs, leading to a decrease in miRNA production. We want to know which miRNAs changed in human bladder cancer cell T24 when we downregulated NF90. We used microarrays to detail the mature miRNA expression and identified distinct classes of 2-fold changed miRNAs during this process.

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 high-throughput human pri-miRNA processing assays

Project description:Human Microprocessor cleaves pri-miRNAs to initiate miRNA biogenesis. The accuracy and efficiency of Microprocessor cleavage ensure appropriate miRNA sequence and expression and thus its proper gene regulation. However, Microprocessor cleaves many pri-miRNAs incorrectly, so it requires assistance from its many cofactors. For example, SRSF3 enhances Microprocessor cleavage by interacting with the CNNC motif in pri-miRNAs. However, whether SRSF3 can function with other motifs and/or requires the motifs in a certain secondary structure is unknown. In addition, the function of SRSF7 (a paralog of SRSF3) in miRNA biogenesis still needs to be discovered. Here, we demonstrated that SRSF7 could stimulate Microprocessor cleavage. In addition, by conducting high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for Microprocessor and SRSF7 or SRSF3, we demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 function with the CRC and CNNC motifs, adopting certain secondary structures. In addition, SRSF7 and SRSF3 affect the Microprocessor cleavage sites in human cells. Our findings demonstrate the roles of SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis and provide a comprehensive view of the molecular mechanism of SRSF7 and SRSF3 in enhancing Microprocessor cleavage.

High-throughput in vitro DROSHA processing on artificial variants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that regulate gene expression. miRNAs are produced from primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs), the cleavage of which is catalyzed by the Microprocessor complex. Microprocessor therefore plays a key role in determining the efficiency and precision of miRNA production, and thus the function of the final miRNA product. In this study, we utilized high-throughput sequencing-integrated enzymology with purified Microprocessor proteins and randomized pri-miRNA sequences to investigate the catalytic mechanism of Microprocessor. We identified multiple mismatches and wobble base pairs in the upper stem of pri-miRNAs, which determine the efficiency and accuracy of pri-miRNA processing. The existence of these RNA elements helps to explain the alternative cleavage mechanism of Microprocessor, which occurs for some human pri-miRNAs. We also showed that these RNA elements are targets of RNA-editing or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for regulating miRNA biogenesis. These findings considerably improve our understanding of pri-miRNA processing mechanisms, and provide a foundation for interpreting differential miRNA expression by several mechanisms, such as RNA modifications and SNPs.

The bulges control in pri-miRNA processing in the position and strand-dependent manner

Project description:The microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is responsible for the production of miRNAs that play critical roles in gene expression and numerous human diseases. The adequate biogenesis of miRNAs is largely determined by the efficiency and fidelity of primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) processing by Microprocessor. Here, we investigated the roles of a secondary RNA element, an RNA bulge, in pri-miRNA processing. We discovered that the 3p-strand bulges in positions 7-9 from the Microprocessor cleavage sites (midB_7-9) contributes to determining the cleavage sites of Microprocessor, the 5p- and 3p-strand bugles in positions 10-12 (midB_10-12) blocked the unproductive cleavage, and the 3p-strand bulges in positions 6-7 (seedB) inhibited the productive cleavage of Microprocessor. The 5p-strand midB_10-12 was found enriched and conserved in many pri-miRNAs of humans and other organisms. In addition, by analyzing the published Microprocessor-RNA structure and doing mutagenesis, we identified several amino acid residues of Microprocessor that explains a structure basis for the processing inhibition caused by seedB. The revealed functions of bulges in our study improves our understanding of the pri-miRNA processing by Microprocessor and implies their roles in regulating miRNA expression.

The SHAPE-MaP experiment to identify RNA structures of pri-mir-142 variants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that play essential roles in RNA silencing and gene regulation. The human Microprocessor (MP) is the key factor to initiate miRNA biogenesis by cleaving primary microRNAs (pri-miRNAs). However, the Microprocessor alone cannot precisely and efficiently cleave all pri-miRNAs; thus, it requires cofactors to assist its cleavage. SRSF3 interacts with CNNC in pri-miRNAs, enhancing the MP cleavage. However, it is unknown if SRSF3 can function with other non-CNNC motifs and if secondary structure might influce CNNC function. In addition, function of SRSF7, a paralog of SRSF3, in the SR proteins family, in miRNA biogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, by conducting the high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for the MP with SRSF3 or SRSF7 and randomized pri-miRNAs, we discovered that SRSF7 also stimulate MP clevage. Futhermore, we found that both SRSF3 and SRSF7 can function with some non-CNNC motifs and with CNNC motifs with certain secondary structures. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 governed the cleavage sites of the Microprocessor in human cells. Our findings disclose the roles SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis, demonstrate a compresenhive moleucalr mechanism of SFSF3 and SRSF7 in enhancing cleavage of MP and described in more detail the RNA-binding features of SRSF7 and SRSF3.

MicroRNA biogenesis is broadly disrupted by inhibition of the splicing factor SF3B1

Project description:In animals, microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis begins with cotranscriptional cleavage of the primary (pri-)miRNA by Microprocessor. Cotranscriptional splicing has been shown to influence Microprocessor cleavage for miRNAs hosted in introns of protein coding pri-miRNAs, but the impact of splicing on production of miRNAs hosted in long noncoding (lnc)RNAs is largely unknown. Here, we investigated the role of splicing in the biogenesis of miR-122, a lncRNA-hosted, highly expressed, medically important, liver-specific miRNA. We found that splicing inhibition by the SF3B1 inhibitor Pladienolide B (PlaB) led to strong and rapid reduction in transcription of endogenous, but not plasmid-encoded, pri-miR-122, resulting in reduced production of mature miR-122. To allow detection of rapid changes in miRNA biogenesis despite the high stability of mature miRNAs, we used SLAMseq to globally quantify the effects of short-term splicing inhibition on miRNA synthesis. We observed an overall decrease in biogenesis of mature miRNAs following PlaB treatment. Surprisingly, miRNAs derived from different genomic locations were similarly affected. Together, this study provides new insight into the emerging role for splicing in transcription, demonstrating novel biological importance in promotion of miR-122 biogenesis from a lncRNA, and shows that splicing is important for global miRNA biogenesis.

The LncRNA NEAT1 Nests RNA Binding Proteins and the Microprocessor to Globally Enhance Pri-miRNA Processing

Project description:MicroRNA biogenesis is known to be modulated by a variety of RNA binding proteins (RBPs), but in most cases, individual RBPs appear to influence the processing of a small number of selective targets. We herein report binding of the NONO/PSF heterodimer to hundreds of expressed pri-miRNAs in HeLa cells to globally enhance pri-miRNA processing by the Drosha/DGCR8 Microprocessor. As NONO/PSF are key components of paraspeckles organized by the lncRNA NEAT1, we find that NEAT1 also has profound effects on global pri-miRNA processing. Mechanistic dissection reveals that NEAT1 broadly interacts with NONO/PSF as well as many other RBPs, and that multiple RNA segments in NEAT1, including a “pseudo pri-miRNA” near its 3’ end, help attract the Microprocessor. These findings suggest a bird nest model for a large lncRNA to orchestrate efficient processing of an entire class of small RNAs in the nucleus.we used small RNA-seq to identify miRNA level in response to secific knockdowns relative to siGFP treatment control
