The RNA exosome shapes the expression of key protein-coding genes

ABSTRACT: The ribonucleolytic exosome complex is central for nuclear RNA degradation, primarily targeting non-coding RNAs, while the majority of mRNAs are protected through their 3’ polyadenylation and nuclear export. Still, the nuclear exosome could have protein-coding (pc) gene-specific regulatory activities. By depleting an exosome core component, or key components of nucleoplasmic exosome adaptor complexes, we identify a number of transcription start sites (TSSs) from within pc genes that produce exosome-sensitive transcripts and two classes of pc-genes, which both employ a single, annotated TSS across cells and tissues, but the former class primarily produces full-length, exosome-sensitive transcripts, whereas the latter primarily produces prematurely terminated transcripts. Genes within the former class often belong to immediate early response transcription factors, while genes within the latter are likely transcribed as a consequence of their proximity to strong upstream TSSs on the opposite strand. We also show that when genes have multiple active TSSs, alternative TSSs that produce exosome sensitive transcripts typically do not contribute substantially to overall gene expression, and most such exosome sensitive transcripts are prematurely terminated. Our results display a complex landscape of sense transcription within pc-gene regions and imply a direct role for nuclear RNA turnover in the expression regulation of a subset of pc- genes.

An Mtr4/ZFC3H1 complex facilitates turnover of unstable nuclear RNAs to prevent their cytoplasmic transport and global translational repression

Project description:Many long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are unstable and rapidly degraded in the nucleus by the nuclear exosome. An exosome adaptor complex called NEXT (nuclear exosome targeting) functions to facilitate turnover of some of these lncRNAs. Here we show that knockdown of one NEXT subunit, Mtr4, but neither of the other two subunits, resulted in accumulation of two types of lncRNAs: prematurely terminated RNAs (ptRNAs) and upstream antisense RNAs (uaRNAs). This suggested a NEXT-independent Mtr4 function, and, consistent with this, we isolated a distinct complex containing Mtr4 and the zinc finger protein ZFC3H1. Strikingly, knockdown of either protein not only increased pt/uaRNA levels but also led to their accumulation in the cytoplasm. Furthermore, all pt/uaRNAs examined associated with active ribosomes, but, paradoxically, this correlated with a global reduction in heavy polysomes and overall repression of translation. Our findings highlight a critical role for Mtr4/ZFC3H1 in nuclear surveillance of naturally unstable lncRNAs to prevent their accumulation, transport to the cytoplasm, and resultant disruption of protein synthesis.

Changes in gene expression when Nab3 is non-functional.

Project description:Nrd1 and Nab3 are two yeast RNA binding proteins which have been shown to be involved in transcription termination of non poly(A) genes. We have used expression profiling of a Nab3 mutant to discover novel RNA targets of the Nrd1 and Nab3 transcription termination pathway. Failure to terminate RNA polymerase II by Nab3 leads to continued transcription well beyond the correct termination sites, altering the expression of adjacent downstream genes. Using this concept, our microarray uncovered the up-regulation of numerous genes that are located downstream of “cryptic unstable transcripts”, transcripts that are transcribed, terminated and rapidly degraded by Nrd1, Nab3, and the nuclear exosome.

Yeast RNA-binding protein Nab3 regulations genes involved in nitrogen metabolism

Project description:Termination of yeast RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcripts occurs through two alternative pathways. Termination of mRNAs is coupled to cleavage and polyadenylation while non-coding transcripts are terminated through the Nrd1-Nab3-Sen1 (NNS) pathway in a process that is linked to RNA degradation by the nuclear exosome. Some mRNA transcripts are also attenuated through premature termination directed by the NNS complex. In this paper we present the results of nuclear depletion of the NNS component Nab3. As expected many non-coding RNAs fail to terminate properly. In addition, we observe that nitrogen catabolite repressed genes are up-regulated by Nab3 depletion.

Identification of a nuclear exosome decay pathway for processed transcripts

Project description:The RNA exosome is fundamental for the degradation of RNA in eukaryotic nuclei. Substrate targeting is facilitated by its co-factor Mtr4p/hMTR4, which links to RNA-binding protein adaptors. One such activity is the human Nuclear EXosome Targeting (NEXT) complex, composed of hMTR4, the Zn-finger protein ZCCHC8 and the RNA-binding factor RBM7. NEXT primarily targets early and unprocessed transcripts, demanding a rationale for how the nuclear exosome recognizes processed RNAs. Here, we describe the PolyA tail eXosome Targeting (PAXT) connection, comprising the hitherto uncharacterized ZFC3H1 Zn-knuckle protein as a central link between hMTR4 and the nuclear polyA binding protein PABPN1. Individual depletion of ZFC3H1 and PABPN1 results in the accumulation of common transcripts, that are generally both longer and more 3’polyadenylated than NEXT substrates. Importantly, ZFC3H1/PABPN1 and ZCCHC8/RBM7 contact hMTR4 in a mutually exclusive manner, revealing that the exosome targets nuclear transcripts of different maturation status by substituting its hMTR4-associating adaptors.

Distinct and redundant roles of nuclear RNA exosome targeting complexes

Project description:Degradation of transcripts in mammalian nuclei is primarily facilitated by the RNA exosome. To obtain substrate specificity, the exosome is aided by adaptors; in the nucleoplasm, the Nuclear EXosome Targeting (NEXT) complex and the PolyA (pA) eXsome Targeting (PAXT) connection. However, how exact targeting is achieved remains enigmatic. Employing high-resolution 3’end sequencing of both steady state and newly produced pA+ and pA- RNA, we demonstrate that NEXT substrates arise from heterogenous and predominantly pA- 3’ends often covering kb-wide genomic regions. In contrast, PAXT targets harbor well-defined pA+ 3’ends defined by canonical pA site usage. Irrespective this clear division, NEXT and PAXT act redundantly in two ways: i) Regional redundancy: The majority of exosome-targeted transcription units produce both NEXT- and PAXT-sensitive RNA isoforms; and ii) Isoform redundancy: The PAXT connection ensures the fail-safe decay of post-transcriptionally polyadenylated NEXT targets. In conjunction, this provides for the efficient nuclear removal of superfluous RNA.

Characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana promoter bidirectionality and antisense RNAs by depletion of nuclear RNA decay pathways [RNA-seq]

Project description:In animals, transcription by RNA polymerase II initiates bidirectionally from gene promoters to produce pre-mRNAs on the forward strand and promoter upstream transcripts (PROMPTs) on the reverse strand. PROMPTs are rapidly degraded by the nuclear exosome. Previous studies based on nascent RNA approaches concluded that Arabidopsis thaliana does not produce PROMPTs. Here, we used steady-state RNA sequencing methods in mutants defective in nuclear RNA decay, including by the exosome, to reassess the existence of PROMPTs in A. thaliana. While PROMPTs are overall rare in A. thaliana, about 100 clear cases of exosome-sensitive PROMPTs were identified. We also found that PROMPTs become sources of 21-22 nt small interfering RNAs in exosome-deficient mutants, perhaps explaining why plants have evolved mechanisms to suppress PROMPT production. In addition, we found ~200 transcription start sites within 3’-UTR-encoding regions that produce long unspliced, exosome-sensitive antisense RNAs. The previously characterized non-coding (nc) RNA that regulates expression of the key seed dormancy regulator, DELAY OF GERMINATION1, is a typical representative of this class of RNAs. Transcription factor genes are overrepresented among loci with exosome-sensitive antisense RNAs, suggesting a potential for widespread control of gene expression via this class of ncRNAs. Lastly, we assess the use of alternative promoters in A. thaliana and compare the accuracy of existing TSS annotations.

The fission yeast MTREC complex targets CUTs and unspliced mRNAs to the nuclear exosome [expression array]

Project description:Cryptic unstable transcripts (CUTs) are rapidly degraded by the nuclear exosome, however, the way they are recognized and targeted to the exosome is not fully understood. The recently identified Schizosaccharomyces pombe MTREC complex has been shown to promote degradation of meiotic mRNAs and regulatory ncRNAs. Here, we report that the MTREC complex is also the major nuclear exosome targeting complex for CUTs and unspliced mRNAs. MTREC complex specifically binds to CUTs, meiotic mRNAs and unspliced mRNA transcripts and targets these RNAs for degradation by the nuclear exosome, while the TRAMP complex has only a minor role in this process. The MTREC complex physically interacts with the nuclear exosome and with various RNA-binding and -processing complexes, coupling RNA processing to the RNA degradation machinery. Our study reveals the central role of the evolutionarily conserved MTREC complex in RNA quality control, and in the recognition and elimination of aberrant, cryptic transcripts. Genome-wide expression analysis of MTREC, Nuclear Exosome, TRAMP, Nrd complex members All experiments were performed twice in biological replicates, except that rmn1Δ and mmi1Δ mei4-P572 were perfomed once.
