ADARs act as potent regulators of circular transcriptome in cancer

ABSTRACT: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are produced by head-to-tail back-splicing which is mainly facilitated by base-pairing of reverse complementary matches (RCMs) in circRNA flanking introns. Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) are known to bind double-stranded RNAs for adenosine to inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing. Here we characterize ADARs as potent regulators of circular transcriptome by identifying over a thousand of circRNAs regulated by ADARs in a bidirectional manner through and beyond their editing function. We found that editing can stabilize or destabilize secondary structures formed between RCMs via correcting A:C mismatches to I(G)-C pairs or creating I(G).U wobble pairs, respectively. We provided experimental evidence that editing also favors the binding of RNA-binding proteins such as PTBP1 to regulate back-splicing. These ADARs-regulated circRNAs which are ubiquitously expressed in multiple types of cancers, demonstrate high functional relevance to cancer. Our findings support a hitherto unappreciated bidirectional regulation of circular transcriptome by ADARs and highlights the complexity of cross-talk in RNA processing and its contributions to tumorigenesis.

ADARs affect the biogenesis of many small RNAs in C. elegans, but few mature small RNAs are edited

Project description:Adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs) are RNA editing enzymes that convert adenosine to inosine in double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). To evaluate effects of ADARs on small RNAs that derive from dsRNA precursors, we performed deep-sequencing, comparing small RNAs from wildtype and ADAR mutant C. elegans. While editing in small RNAs was rare, at least 40% of microRNAs had altered levels in at least one ADAR mutant strain, and miRNAs with significantly altered levels had mRNA targets with correspondingly affected levels. About 40% of siRNAs derived from endogenous genes (endo-siRNAs) also had altered levels in at least one mutant strain, including 63% of Dicer-dependent endo-siRNAs. The 26G class of endo-siRNAs was significantly affected by ADARs, and many altered 26G loci had intronic reads, and histone modifications associated with transcriptional silencing. Our data indicate ADARs, through both direct and indirect mechanisms, are important for maintaining wildtype levels of many small RNAs in C. elegans.

ADARs regulate small RNAs mapped to edited sequences

Project description:Cellular RNAs containing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) structures are subject to A-to-I RNA editing by the adenosine deaminases that act on RNA (ADARs). While A-to-I editing can alter mRNA coding potential, most editing is observed in non-coding sequences, the function of which remains poorly characterized. To correlate small RNA population with expression patterns of ADARs and hyperedited RNAs (editing-enriched regions: EERs) defined and characterized in a separate RNAseq analysis, we re-analyzed existing smallRNAseq datasets of a wildtype strain and a strain lacking ADARs (adr-1;adr-2). Analysis of primary siRNAs from mixed-stage worms revealed that ADARs impact siRNA biogenesis from EERs. We then analyzed primary and secondary RNAs mapping to EERs from embryo-stage or L4-stage worms and observed that ADAR effects on siRNA levels are dependent on developmental stage.

CHARTING AND PROBING THE ACTIVITY OF ADARS IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT AND CELL-FATE SPECIFICATION

Project description:Adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) impact diverse cellular processes and pathological conditions. While we possess important insights into their roles in adult tissues, their functions in early cell fate specification remain less understood. To address this, we devised a comprehensive framework to investigate ADARs in human development. We began by charting time-course RNA editing profiles in human organs from fetal to adult stages, enabling broad insights into RNA editing trends across diverse tissues. Next, we utilized hPSC differentiation to experimentally probe ADARs across specific tissue-types, harnessing brain organoids as neural specific, and teratomas as pan-tissue developmental models. We found that time-series teratomas faithfully recapitulated developmental trends observed in fetal tissue. Motivated by this, we conducted pan-tissue, single-cell CRISPR-KO screens of ADARs in teratomas to assess their role in cell-fate specification. Knocking out ADAR1 led to a global decrease in RNA editing across all germ-layers. Intriguingly, we observed a significant fitness defect in mesodermal tissues, and an enrichment of adipogenic cells, revealing a novel role for ADAR1 in mesenchymal differentiation. Collectively, we developed a multi-pronged framework charting time-resolved RNA editing profiles in fetal and fetal-like organ tissues, thereby shedding light on the role of ADARs in development and cell fate-specification.

Efficient and precise editing of endogenous transcripts with SNAP-tagged ADARs

Project description:Molecular tools to target RNA site‐specifically allow recoding of RNA information and processing. SNAP‐tagged deaminases, guided by a chemically stabilized guideRNA, enable the simultaneous editing of targeted adenosine to inosine in several endogenous transcripts, with high efficiency (up to 90%), high potency, sufficient duration, and high precision. We applied SNAP‐ADARs for the efficient and concurrent editing of two disease‐relevant signaling transcripts, KRAS and STAT1. We also show improved performance compared to the recently described Cas13b-ADAR.

Bidirectional regulation of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing by DEAH box helicase 9 (DHX9) in cancer

Project description:Adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) RNA editing entails the enzymatic deamination of adenosines to inosines by adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs). Dysregulated A-to-I editing has been implicated in various diseases, including cancers. However, the precise factors governing the A-to-I editing and their physiopathological implications remain as a long-standing question. Herein, we unravel that DEAH box helicase 9 (DHX9), at least partially dependent of its helicase activity, functions as a bidirectional regulator of A-to-I editing in cancer cells. Intriguingly, the ADAR substrate specificity determines the opposing effects of DHX9 on editing as DHX9 silencing preferentially represses editing of ADAR1-specific substrates, whereas augments ADAR2-specific substrate editing. Analysis of 11 cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) reveals a striking overexpression of DHX9 in tumors. Further, tumorigenicity studies demonstrate a helicase-dependent oncogenic role of DHX9 in cancer development. In sum, DHX9 constitutes a bidirectional regulatory mode in A-to-I editing, which is in part responsible for the dysregulated editome profile in cancer.

Sex-lethal regulates back-splicing and generation of the sex-differentially expressed circular RNAs

Project description:Conversely to canonical splicing, back-splicing covalently ligates the upstream 3' splice site (SS) with downstream 5'SS and generates exonic circular RNAs (circRNAs) that are widely-identified in eukaryotes and have regulatory functions in gene expression. However, sex-specific back-splicing in Drosophila has not been investigated and its regulation remains unclear. Here, we performed multiple RNA-seq of various sex-specific Drosophila samples including head, body and gonads from both genders, and identified more than ten thousand of circular RNAs, in which hundreds are sex-differentially expressed and back-spliced. Intriguingly, we found that expression of SXL, an RNA-binding protein encoded by Sex-lethal (Sxl), the master Drosophila sex-determination gene which only functionally spliced in females, promotes back-splicing of many female-differentially expressed circRNAs in the male S2 cells, while expression of a SXL mutant did not. Using a monoclonal antibody, we further obtained the transcriptome-wide RNA-binding sites of SXL through a PAR-CLIP approach and revealed that SXL-binding on flanking exons and introns of pre-mRNAs facilitates back-splicing of those circRNAs, whereas SXL-binding on the circRNA exons inhibits the back-splicing. This study provides strong evidence that SXL has a regulatory role in back-splicing to generate sex-specifc circRNAs, as well as in the initiation of Drosophila sex-determination cascade through canoncial forward-splicing.

ADAR2 affects mRNA coding sequence edits but not gene expression or splicing in vivo

Project description:Adenosine deaminases (ADARs) are RNA binding proteins that bind to double stranded RNA and convert adenosine to inosine. Editing creates multiple isoforms of neurotransmitter receptors, including AMPA-subtype Glutamate channels such as Gria2 that is edited to introduce a Q to R amino acid change. Adar2 knock out mice die of seizures shortly after birth, but if the Gria2 Q/R editing site is mutated to mimic the edited version then the animals are viable. We performed RNA-Seq on the frontal cortices of Adar2-/- Gria2R/R mice and their Adar2+/+ Gria2R/R littermates, quantifying overall gene expression, splicing, and A to I editing in a transcriptome-wide fashion. We found 56 editing sites whose level of editing was significantly diminished in the Adar2 deficient animals. The majority of Adar2 responsive editing sites were in the coding regions of genes. Interestingly, other than Adar2 expression, there were only two additional statistically significant differentially expressed genes, Flnb and Cdh13. There were also only three exons that showed statistically significant differences in expression levels between the two genotypes. This work illustrates that ADAR2 is important in site-specific changes of protein coding sequences but has only modest effects on gene expression or splicing in vivo. 6 ADAR2 Knock out frontal cortices and 6 litter mate control frontal cortices from male mice

RNA A>I editing of tau circular RNAs

Project description:tau circular RNAs undergo Adenosine to inosine editing, which promotes their translation. To map editing sites,we cotransfected expression constructs for tau 7->12 and 10->12 circRNAs with expression constructs for GFP, ADAR1, ADAR2 and ADAR3 in HEK293 cells. RNA from these transfected cells was isolated and A>I editing was identified by A>G changes in the cDNA.
