Zebrafish Ski7 tunes RNA levels during the oocyte-to-embryo transition

ABSTRACT: Post-transcriptional mechanisms are crucial for the regulation of gene expression. These mechanisms are particularly important during rapid developmental transitions such as the oocyte-to-embryo transition, which is characterized by dramatic changes to the developmental program in the absence of nuclear transcription. Under these conditions, changes to the RNA content are solely dependent on RNA degradation. Although several mechanisms that promote RNA decay during embryogenesis have been identified, it remains unclear which cellular machineries contribute to remodeling the maternal transcriptome during the oocyte-to-embryo transition. Here, we focused on the auxiliary 3’-to-5’ degradation factor Ski7 in zebrafish as its mRNA peaks during this time frame. Homozygous ski7 mutant fish were viable and developed into morphologically normal adults, yet they had decreased fertility. Consistent with the idea that Ski7 participates in remodeling the transcriptome during the oocyte-to-embryo transition, transcriptome profiling identified stage-specific mRNA targets of Ski7. Genes upregulated in ski7 mutants were generally lowly expressed in wild type, suggesting that Ski7 maintains low transcript levels for this subset of genes. GO enrichment analyses of genes mis-regulated in ski7 mutants implicated Ski7 in the regulation of redox processes. This was confirmed experimentally by an increased resistance of ski7 mutant embryos to reductive stress. Overall, our results provide first insights into the physiological role of vertebrate Ski7 as an important post-transcriptional regulator during the oocyte-to-embryo transition.

Calcineurin dependent protein phosphorylation changes during egg activation in Drosophila melanogaster

Project description:In animals studied to date, the crucial process of egg activation, by which an arrested mature oocyte transits into an actively developing embryo, initiates with an increase of Ca2+ in the oocyte’s cytoplasm. This Ca2+ rise sets off a series of downstream events, including the completion of meiosis and the dynamic remodeling of the oocyte transcriptome and proteome, which prepare the oocyte to undertake embryogenesis. Calcineurin is a highly conserved phosphatase that is activated directly by Ca2+ upon egg activation and that is required for the resumption of meiosis in Xenopus, ascidians and Drosophila. The molecular mechanisms by which calcineurin transduces the calcium signal to regulate meiosis and other downstream events are still unclear. In this study, we investigate the regulatory role of calcineurin during egg activation in Drosophila melanogaster. Using mass spectrometry, we quantify the phosphoproteomic and proteomic changes that occur during egg activation, and we examine how these events are affected when calcineurin function is perturbed in female germ cells. Our results show that calcineurin regulates hundreds of phosphosites and also influences the abundance of numerous proteins during egg activation. We find calcineurin-dependent changes in cell cycle regulators including Fzy, Greatwall (Gwl) and Endosulfine (Endos), protein translation modulators including PNG, NAT, eIF4G and eIF4B, and important components of signaling pathways including GSK3β and Akt1. Our results help elucidate the events that occur during the transition from oocyte to embryo

An extended wave of global mRNA deadenylation sets up a switch in translation regulation across the mammalian oocyte-to-embryo transition

Project description:The oocyte-to-embryo transition (OET) occurs in the absence of new transcription and relies on post-transcriptional gene regulation, including translational control by mRNA poly(A) tail regulation, where cytoplasmic polyadenylation activates translation and deadenylation leads to translational repression and decay. However, how the transcriptome-wide landscape of mRNA poly(A) tails shapes translation across the OET in mammals remains unknown. Here, we performed long-read RNA sequencing to uncover poly(A) tail lengths and mRNA abundance transcriptome-wide in mice across five stages of development from oocyte to embryo. Integrating these data with recently published ribosome profiling data, we demonstrate that poly(A) tail length is coupled to translational efficiency across the entire OET. We uncover an extended wave of global deadenylation during fertilization, which sets up a switch in translation control between the oocyte and embryo. In the oocyte, short-tailed maternal mRNAs that resist deadenylation in the oocyte are translationally activated, whereas large groups of mRNAs deadenylated without decay in the oocyte are later readenylated to drive translation activation in the early embryo. Our findings provide an important resource and insight into the mechanisms by which cytoplasmic polyadenylation and deadenylation dynamically shape poly(A) tail length in a stage-specific manner to orchestrate development from oocyte to embryo in mammals.

The APC/CFZY-1/Cdc20 complex coordinates with OMA-1 to regulate the oocyte-to-embryo transition in C. elegans

Project description:During oocyte maturation and the oocyte-to-embryo transition, key developmental regulators such as RNA-binding proteins coordinate translation of particular mRNAs and related developmental processes by binding to their cognate maternal mRNAs. In the nematode C. elegans, these processes are regulated by a set of CCCH zinc finger proteins. OMA-1 and OMA-2 are two functionally redundant CCCH zinc finger proteins that turnover rapidly during the first embryonic cell division. These turnovers are required for proper transition from oogenesis to embryogenesis. A gain-of-function mutant of OMA-1, oma-1(zu405), stabilizes and delays degradation of OMA-1, resulting in delayed turnover and mis-segregation of other cell fate determinants, which eventually causes embryonic lethality. We performed a large-scale forward genetic screen to identify suppressors of the oma-1(zu405) mutant. We show here that multiple alleles affecting functions of various APC/C subunits, including MAT-1, MAT-2, MAT-3, EMB-30, and FZY-1, suppress the gain-of-function mutant of OMA-1. Mutations in APC/C genes prevent OMA-1 enrichment in P granules and correct delayed degradation of downstream cell fate determinants including PIE-1, POS-1, MEX-3, and MEG-1. Transcriptome analysis also suggested that overall transcription in early embryos occurred after introducing mutations in APC/C genes into the oma-1(zu405) mutant. We demonstrated that only the activator FZY-1, but not FZR-1, is incorporated in the APC/C complex to regulate the oocyte-to-embryo transition. Our findings suggested a genetic relationship linking the APC/C complex and OMA-1, and support a model in which the APC/C complex promotes P granule accumulation and modifies RNA binding of OMA-1 to regulate the oocyte-to-embryo transition process.

Oocyte developmental competence is instructed by H3.3 chaperone Hira complex

Project description:Reproductive success begins with a healthy egg (a competent oocyte). An oocyte acquires its developmental competence during oogenesis in preparation for accomplishing the critical developmental transition from completion of meiosis to initiation of early embryogenesis. Here we comprehensively characterised the maternal role of major subunits of Hira (i.e. Hira, Cabin1 and Zscan4) during oocyte-to-embryo transition.

Global characterization of the oocyte-to-embryo transition in C. elegans uncovers a novel mRNA turnover mechanism

Project description:The oocyte-to-embryo transition (OET) is thought to be mainly driven by post-transcriptional gene regulation. However, expression of both RNAs and proteins during the OET has not been comprehensively assayed. Furthermore, specific molecular mechanisms that regulate gene expression during OET are largely unknown. Here, we quantify and analyze, transcriptome-wide, expression of mRNAs, small RNAs and thousands of proteins in C. elegans oocytes, 1-cell, and 2-cell embryos. This represents a first comprehensive gene expression atlas during the OET in animals. We discovered a first wave of degradation in which thousands of mRNAs are turned over shortly after fertilization. Sequence analysis revealed a statistically highly significant presence of a novel polyC motif in the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) of most of these degraded mRNAs. Transgenic reporter assays showed that this polyC motif is indeed required and sufficient for mRNA degradation after fertilization. We show that orthologs of human poly-C binding-protein specifically bind this motif. Together, our data suggest a mechanism in which the polyC motif and binding partners direct degradation of maternal mRNAs. Our data also indicate that endogenous siRNAs but not miRNAs promote mRNA clearance during the OET. To study the OET in C.elegans we isolated large quantities of oocytes, 1-cell embryos, 2-cell embryos and sperm. We sequenced then sequenced polyA RNA.

Ultrasensitive proteomics depicted an in-depth landscape for the very early stage of mouse maternal-to-zygotic transition

Project description:Maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a conserved and fundamental process during which the maternal environment of oocyte transits to the zygotic genome driven expression program, and terminally differentiated oocyte and sperm are reprogrammed to totipotency. Metaphase II (MII) oocytes and zygotes (one-cell embryo) serve as the mature oocyte and the initiation of pre-implantation embryo development respectively, and characterizing their molecular landscapes at protein levels plays an important role in uncovering MZT and zygotic genome activation (ZGA )in mammals. Here we used an ultrasensitive proteomic approach to depict an in-depth landscape for the very early stage of mouse MZT.
