Coding sequence targeting by MicC RNA reveals bacterial mRNA silencing downstream of translational initiation

ABSTRACT: It is well established that small noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) of bacteria recognize the 5’ regions of target mRNAs, generally at the ribosome binding site. Until now, the translated coding sequence (CDS) of mRNA appeared to be refractory to sRNA interactions. We have discovered that Salmonella MicC RNA silences ompD mRNA by targeting the CDS, at codons 23-26. Analyses of MicC-ompD RNA complexes in vitro, and of chimeric sRNAs and ompD reporter fusions in vivo, show that interactions are confined to the CDS, and that a ≤12 bp RNA duplex involving the conserved 5’ end of MicC is essential and sufficient for target repression. MicC cannot act as a translational repressor at this downstream position being unable to inhibit 30S or 70S ribosome activity on the ompD mRNA. Instead, MicC accelerates RNase E-dependent ompD mRNA decay. The degradosome contributes to target destabilization, and facilitates the efficient degradation of processed ompD mRNA. Our data show that bacterial gene silencing by sRNAs can take place downstream of the translational initiation site by triggering irreversible mRNA decay. This ability of sRNAs allows targets in the CDS to be silenced without interference from the strong RNA helicase activity of elongating ribosomes.

Coding sequence targeting by MicC RNA reveals bacterial mRNA silencing downstream of translational initiation

Project description:It is well established that small noncoding RNAs (sRNAs) of bacteria recognize the 5â?? regions of target mRNAs, generally at the ribosome binding site. Until now, the translated coding sequence (CDS) of mRNA appeared to be refractory to sRNA interactions. We have discovered that Salmonella MicC RNA silences ompD mRNA by targeting the CDS, at codons 23-26. Analyses of MicC-ompD RNA complexes in vitro, and of chimeric sRNAs and ompD reporter fusions in vivo, show that interactions are confined to the CDS, and that a â?¤12 bp RNA duplex involving the conserved 5â?? end of MicC is essential and sufficient for target repression. MicC cannot act as a translational repressor at this downstream position being unable to inhibit 30S or 70S ribosome activity on the ompD mRNA. Instead, MicC accelerates RNase E-dependent ompD mRNA decay. The degradosome contributes to target destabilization, and facilitates the efficient degradation of processed ompD mRNA. Our data show that bacterial gene silencing by sRNAs can take place downstream of the translational initiation site by triggering irreversible mRNA decay. This ability of sRNAs allows targets in the CDS to be silenced without interference from the strong RNA helicase activity of elongating ribosomes. To determine the targets of the small regulatory RNA MicC in S. Typhimurium, we looked at the effect of a short pulse of MicC over-expression on the Salmonella transcriptome. To achieve over-expression, the micC gene was cloned in the pBAD plasmid and induced with 0.2% L-arabinose for 10 min. We then extracted the total RNA for transcriptional profiling. A strain carrying the pBAD plasmid w/o insert was used as negative control. 3 biological replicates were performed. This sRNA target identification strategy has been described in Papenfort et al; Molecular Microbiology (2006) 62(6), 1674â??1688.

Ribosome profiling of early zebrafish embryos -- miRNA-mediated regulation during embryogenesis causes translational repression before mRNA decay

Project description:MicroRNAs regulate gene expression through deadenylation, repression and mRNA decay. However, the contribution of each mechanism in non-steady-state situations remains unclear. We monitored the impact of miR-430 on ribosome occupancy of endogenous mRNAs in wild type and dicer mutants lacking mature miR-430. Our results indicate that miR-430 reduces the number of ribosomes on target mRNAs before causing mRNA decay. Translational repression occurs before complete deadenylation, and disrupting deadenylation using an internal poly(A) tail did not block target repression. Finally, we observe that ribosome density along the length of the target mRNA remains constant, suggesting that translational repression occurs by reducing the initiation rate rather than reducing elongation or causing ribosomal drop-off. In summary, our results show that miR-430 regulates translation initiation before inducing mRNA decay.

mRNA Decay in E. Coli Degradosome Mutants and their Parental Strains

Project description:mRNA decay in E. Coli degradosome mutants and their parental strains following transcriptional arrest with rifampicin. Abstract: RNase E, an essential endoribonuclease of Escherichia coli, interacts through its C-terminal region with multiple other proteins to form a complex termed the RNA degradosome. To investigate the degradosome's proposed role as an RNA decay machine, we used DNA microarrays to globally assess alterations in the steady-state abundance and decay of 4,289 E. coli mRNAs at single-gene resolution in bacteria carrying mutations in the degradosome constituents RNase E, polynucleotide phosphorylase, RhlB helicase, and enolase. Our results show that the functions of all four of these proteins are necessary for normal mRNA turnover. We identified specific transcripts and functionally distinguishable transcript classes whose half-life and abundance were affected congruently by multiple degradosome proteins, affected differentially by mutations in degradosome constituents, or not detectably altered by degradosome mutations. Our results, which argue that decay of some E. coli mRNAs in vivo depends on the action of assembled degradosomes, whereas others are acted on by degradosome proteins functioning independently of the complex, imply the existence of structural features or biochemical factors that target specific classes of mRNAs for decay by degradosomes. An RNA stablity experiment design type examines stability and/or decay of RNA transcripts. User Defined

Transcriptomic analysis of an E. coli deletion mutant of the two C-terminal OB fold domains of r-protein S1

Project description:Escherichia coli ribosomal protein S1 is essential for cellular viability through translation initiation of mRNAs. Here, we have addressed the roles of the two distal OB fold domains located in the C-terminus, which are dispensable for growth. Their deletion causes a cold-shock phenotype and a loss of motility accompanied by deregulation of the expression of several small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) and many mRNAs involved in stress responses. Surprisingly, the expression of the sRNA RyhB and one of its repressed target mRNA, sodB, were found enhanced in the mutant strain. We used a combination of in vivo and in vitro approaches to address the roles of S1 in RyhB-dependent regulation. We found that the RyhB-dependent repression of sodB translation was not altered but instead rapid RNase E-mediated depletion of the repressed sodB mRNA was strongly impaired in the mutant strain. This unexpected effect was also generalized to other RyhB-dependent targets. In addition, deletion of the last two OB domains of S1 causes a defect of the final step of the RNase E-dependent maturation of the 16S rRNA. This work unveils an unexpected function of S1 in enhancing the kinetics of ribosome biogenesis and RyhB-dependent mRNA decay mediated by the RNA degradosome. Through its RNA chaperone activity, S1 facilitates the existing coupling between ribosome biogenesis, translation, and RNA decay.
