Codon and amino acid content regulate mRNA stability in mammalian cells

ABSTRACT: mRNA degradation is a critical aspect of gene expression which dictates mRNA steady-state levels in conjunction with transcription rate. Previous studies in other model organisms have demonstrated that enrichment of specific codons within the open reading frame (ORF) can influence mRNA stability, primarily by modulating translation elongation speed. Despite advancements in our understanding of mRNA stability regulation by microRNAs and 3'UTR-based factors in mammalian systems, the importance of other mRNA regions such as the ORF sequence on dictating cellular mRNA levels are incompletely understood. To characterize the effects of the coding sequence on mRNA decay in mammals, we analyzed mRNA stability in human and Chinese Hamster Ovary (Cricetulus griseus) cells by both global metabolic labeling and single-gene mRNA reporter transcription shutoffs. In agreement with previous studies, we observed that synonymous codon usage impacts mRNA stability in mammalian cells. Unexpectedly, we also found that amino acid content is a potent determinant of mRNA stability in humans and other mammalian species. Codon and amino acid effects on decay correlate with tRNA levels measured by tRNA-Seq or intracellular amino acid levels measured by HPLC, respectively. These results suggest that both tRNA and amino acid levels have complementary effects on regulation of mRNA stability in mammals, hinting at the possibility of dynamic control of mRNA levels via altered tRNA or amino acid levels.

endogenous mRNA decay in 293t, hela, RPE cell line

Project description:mRNA endogenous decay profiles approach in 293T, HeLa and RPE cells. mRNA translation decodes nucleotide into amino acid sequences. However, translation has also been shown to affect mRNA stability depending on codon composition in model organisms, although universality of this mechanism remains unclear. Here, using three independent approaches to measure exogenous and endogenous mRNA decay, we define which codons are associated with stable or unstable mRNAs in human cells. We demonstrate that the regulatory information affecting mRNA stability is encoded in codons and not in nucleotides. Stabilizing codons tend to be associated with higher tRNA levels and higher charged/total tRNA ratios. While mRNAs enriched in destabilizing codons tend to possess shorter poly(A)-tails, the poly(A)-tail is not required for the codon-mediated mRNA stability. This mechanism depends on translation; however, the number of ribosome loads into a mRNA modulates the codon-mediated effects on gene expression. This work provides definitive evidence that translation strongly affects mRNA stability in a codon-dependent manner in human cells.

Defining codon-mediated mRNA decay and No-go decay in zebrafish embryos

Project description:The control of mRNA stability plays a central role in regulating gene expression patterns. While much is known about the roles of 5´ and 3´ untranslated regions in the mRNA stability control, the impact of protein-coding sequences on mRNA stability had been obscure. Recently, several groups reported that codon composition in the ORF affects mRNA deadenylation and degradation rates in a translation-dependent manner. Hence, codons define not only the amino acid sequences to be synthesized but also the stability of mRNAs. However, how 61 codons differently affect mRNA stability remains unclear. Besides, aberrant stalling of the ribosome induces ribosome quality control (RQC) and No-go decay. The relationship between the two co-translational mRNA decay pathways is not systematically analyzed. To precisely characterize the effects of 61 codons on mRNA stability, we developed a simplified reporter system that allows detection of the effect of every single codon on mRNA stability in zebrafish embryos. Using this system, we show that the effect of codons on mRNA stability is partially but significantly correlated with the translation elongation rate and tRNA abundance. Interestingly, the codon effect is still maintained in zebrafish embryos lacking Znf598, an essential mediator of RQC and NGD. Znf598-dependent NGD targets a particular type of ribosome stalling but has limited impact on endogenous mRNA stability. Our study thus defines two related co-translational mRNA decay pathways during animal development.

Amino acid misincorporation promotes mRNA instability

Project description:Messenger RNA (mRNA) translation can lead to higher rates of mRNA decay, suggesting a role for the ribosome in mRNA destruction. Furthermore, features of an mRNA, such as codon identities, that are directly probed by the ribosome also correlate with mRNA decay rates. Specifically, many amino acids are encoded by synonymous codons, and some synonymous codons are decoded by more abundant tRNAs leading to more optimal translation and increased mRNA stability. In addition to different translation rates, the presence of individual codons can lead to higher or lower rates of amino acid misincorporation which could potentially lead to protein misfolding if an individual amino acid makes many critical contacts in a structure. Here, we directly test whether amino acid misincorporation affects mRNA stability, taking advantage of an aminoglycoside antibiotic (G418) which promotes higher error rates in the ribosome. We observe that G418 decreases firefly luciferase mRNA stability in an in vitro system, and we similarly observe that G418 reduces mRNA stability in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs). G418-sensitive mRNAs are enriched for suboptimal hydrophobic amino acid codons as well as other codons that are known to result in higher rates of amino acid misincorporation. Since protein folding is highly sensitive to the identity of hydrophobic amino acids, these results strongly suggest that defects in protein folding are linked to mRNA decay.

Translational control through differential ribosome pausing during amino acid limitation in mammalian cells

Project description:Limitation for amino acids is thought to regulate translation in mammalian cells primarily by signaling through the kinases mTORC1 and GCN2. We find that limitation for the amino acid arginine causes a selective loss of tRNA charging, which regulates translation through ribosome pausing at two of six arginine codons. Interestingly, limitation for leucine, an essential and abundant amino acid in protein, results in little or no ribosome pausing. Chemical and genetic perturbation of mTORC1 and GCN2 signaling revealed that their robust response to leucine limitation prevents ribosome pausing, while an insufficient response to arginine limitation led to loss of arginine tRNA charging and ribosome pausing. Codon-specific ribosome pausing decreased protein production and triggered premature ribosome termination without significantly reducing mRNA levels. Together, our results suggest that amino acids which are not optimally sensed by the mTORC1 and GCN2 pathways still regulate translation through an evolutionarily conserved mechanism based on synonymous codon usage.

The dynamics and functional impact of transfer RNA repertoires during the maternal to zygotic transition in zebrafish

Project description:Embryogenesis entails dramatic shifts in mRNA translation and turnover to account for gene expression differences during proliferation and cellular differentiation. Codon identity modulates mRNA stability during early vertebrate embryogenesis, but how the composition of tRNA pools adapts to the embryo s translational demand is unknown. By quantitatively profiling the tRNA repertoires of zebrafish embryos during the maternal-to-zygotic transition, here we find that maternal and zygotic tRNA pools are distinct. We show that translational activation during embryogenesis and tRNA gene derepression are temporally coordinated by TORC1 activity, which increases at gastrulation and inactivates the RNA polymerase III repressor Maf1a/b in vivo. Reshaping of tRNA pools results in differential tRNA anticodon supply, but these changes do not alter decoding rates in zebrafish embryos. Instead, our data indicate that tRNA repertoires reflect the inherent codon bias of the zebrafish mRNA transcriptome, and tRNA levels are boosted at gastrulation to ensure efficient translation as embryos enter differentiation.

Quantitative tRNA-sequencing uncovers metazoan tissue-specific tRNA regulation

Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNA) are quintessential in deciphering the genetic code; disseminating nucleic acid triplets into correct amino acid identity. While this decoding function is clear, an emerging theme is that tRNA abundance and functionality can powerfully impact protein production rate, folding, activity, and messenger RNA stability. Importantly, however, the expression pattern of tRNAs (in even simple systems) is obliquely known. Limited analysis suggests tRNA levels change during proliferation, differentiation, cancer, and neurodegeneration; possibly mediating changes in translation efficiency and mRNA stability. A major limitation for the field has been the ability to subject tRNA pools to high-throughput analysis as they are highly structured, modified, and of high sequence similarity. Here we present Quantitative Mature tRNA sequencing (QuantM-tRNA seq), an easily implemented high-throughput technique to monitor tRNA abundance and sequence variants (possibly due to RNA modifications). With QuantM-tRNA seq we provide a comprehensive analysis of the tRNA transcriptome from distinct mammalian tissues. We observe dramatic distinctions in isodecoder expression and likely RNA modifications between unique tissues with a particularly strong signature within the central nervous system. Remarkably, despite dramatic changes in tRNA isodecoder gene expression, the overall anticodon pool of each tRNA family is similar. These findings suggest that anticodon pools are buffered via an unknown mechanism to achieve uniform decoding throughout the body.
