Translational activation by an alternative sigma factor in Bacillus subtilis

ABSTRACT: Sigma factors are an important class of bacterial transcription factors that lend specificity to RNA polymerases by binding to distinct promoter elements for genes in their regulons. Here we show that activation of the general stress sigma factor, B, in Bacillus subtilis paradoxically leads to dramatic induction of translation for a subset of its regulon genes. These genes are translationally repressed when transcribed by the housekeeping sigma factor, A, owing to extended RNA secondary structures as determined in vivo using DMS-MaPseq. Transcription fromB-dependent promoters liberates the secondary structures and activates translation, leading to dual induction. Translation efficiencies between B- and A-dependent RNA isoforms can vary by up to 100-fold, which in multiple cases exceeds the magnitude of transcriptional induction. These results highlight the role of long-range RNA folding in modulating translation and demonstrate that a transcription factor can regulate protein synthesis beyond its effects on transcript levels.

DMS-MaPseq: A genome-wide or targeted approach for RNA structure probing in vivo

Project description:Here we present dimethyl sulfate mutational profiling with sequencing (DMS-MaPseq), which encodes DMS modifications as mismatches using a thermostable group II intron reverse transcriptase (TGIRT). DMS-MaPseq yields a high signal-to-noise ratio, can report multiple structural features for each molecule, and allows genome-wide studies as well as focused investigations of low abundance RNAs. We apply DMS-MaPseq to Drosophila melanogaster ovaries—the first experimental analysis of RNA structure in an animal tissue—and demonstrate its utility in the discovery of a functional RNA structure involved in the non-canonical GUG translation initiation of the human FXR2 mRNA. Additionally, we use DMS-MaPseq to compare the in vivo structure of messages in their pre-mRNA and mature forms. These applications illustrate DMS-MaPseq’s capacity to dramatically expand our ability to monitor RNA structure in vivo.

DMS-MapSeq Analysis of Antisense Oligonucleotide Binding to lncRNA PANDA

Project description:While various methods exist for examining and visualizing the structure of RNA molecules, dimethyl sulfate-mutational profiling and sequencing (DMS-MaPseq) stands out for its simplicity and versatility. This technique has proven effective for studying RNA structures both in vitro and in complex biological settings. We've updated the protocol for using DMS-MaPseq, and it can also be employed to identify the binding of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) to RNA. By applying this updated protocol, we successfully characterized the structural ensemble of the HIV1 Rev Response Element (RRE), along with its two alternative structures. The findings align with previously published research. Additionally, we resolved the structure of the long non-coding RNA PANDA, which was previously unknown. Moreover, we used PANDA as a basis for designing ASOs and confirmed their binding through a substantial decrease in DMS-reactivities at the anticipated ASO binding locations.

RIP-seq identification of RNAs enriched on RNA polymerase and the primary sigma factor (sigma A) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:6S RNA is a small RNA with specific secondary structure that associates with the complex of RNA polymerase (RNAP) and the primary sigma factor in majority of bacteria. In Mycobacterium smegmatis, Ms1 interacts with the RNAP core without the sigma factor and probably replaces 6S RNA. It is currently unknown if Ms1 homolog (MTS2823) in M. tuberculosis also binds to RNAP core. We sequenced RNAs that co-immunoprecipitated with RNAP or the primary sigma factor sigma A and total RNA isolated from the lysate (input sample). We expect that putative Ms1 or 6S RNA homologs are enriched in RNA polymerase or sigma A sample compared to the input.

The RNA Structurome in the Asexual Blood Stages of Malaria Pathogen Plasmodium falciparum

Project description:Plasmodium falciparum is a deadly human pathogen responsible for the devastating disease called malaria. In this study, we measured the differential accumulation of RNA secondary structures in coding and noncoding transcripts from the asexual developmental cycle in P. falciparum in human red blood cells. Our comprehensive analysis that combined high-throughput nuclease mapping of RNA structures by duplex RNA-seq, SHAPE-directed RNA structure validation, immunoaffinity purification and characterization of antisense RNAs collectively measured differentially base-paired RNA regions throughout the parasite’s development. Our mapping data not only aligned to a diverse pool of RNAs with known structures but also enabled us to identify new structural RNA regions in the malaria genome. On average, approximately 71% of the genes with secondary structures are found to be protein coding mRNAs. The mapping pattern of these base-paired RNAs corresponded to all regions of protein-coding mRNAs, including the 5’ UTR, CDS and 3’ UTR as well as the start and stop codons. Histone family genes which are known to form secondary structures in their mRNAs and transcripts from genes which are important for transcriptional and post-transcriptional control, such as the unique plant-like transcription factor family, ApiAP2, DNA/RNA binding protein, Alba3 and proteins important for RBC invasion and malaria cytoadherence also showed strong accumulation of duplex RNA reads in various asexual stages in P. falciparum. Intriguingly, our study determined a positive relationship between mRNA structural contents and translation efficiency in P. falciparum asexual blood stages, suggesting an essential role of RNA structural changes in malaria gene expression programs.

RNA G-quadruplexes mark repressive upstream open reading frames in human mRNAs

Project description:Translational control is a key determinant of protein abundance, which in turns defines the physiology and pathology of human cells. Initiation of translation is highly regulated in eukaryotes and is considered as the rate-limiting step of protein synthesis. mRNA secondary structures in 5’ untranslated region (UTR) and associated helicases have been characterised as key determinants of translation initiation. Nevertheless the transcriptome-wide contribution of non-canonical secondary structures, such as RNA G-quadruplexes (rG4s), to the translation of human mRNAs remains largely unappreciated. Here we use a ribosome profiling strategy to investigate the translational landscape associated to rG4s-containing mRNAs and the contribution of two rG4s-specialised DExH-box helicases, DHX9 and DHX36, to translation initiation in human cells. We show that rG4-forming sequences in 5’-UTR is associated with decreased translation efficiency which correlate with an increased ribosome density within the 5’-UTRs. We found that rG4s contribute to the translation of upstream open reading frames, and as a consequence, thwart the translation of the associated protein coding sequences (CDS). Depletion of the DHX36 and DHX9 helicases demonstrated that the formation of the rG4 structural motif rather than its nucleotide sequence mediate translation initiation. Our findings unveil a role for non-canonical structures in defining alternative 5’ starts for human mRNAs translation initiation.

The human mitochondrial mRNA structurome reveals mechanisms of gene expression

Project description:The mammalian mitochondrial genome encodes thirteen proteins of the oxidative phosphorylation system, crucial in aerobic energy transduction. These proteins are translated from 9 monocistronic and 2 bicistronic transcripts, whose native structures remain unexplored, leaving fundamental molecular determinants of mitochondrial gene expression unknown. To address this knowledge gap, we developed a mitoDMS-MaPseq approach and used DREEM clustering to resolve the native mt-mRNA structurome in human mitochondria. In this way, we gained insights into mt-mRNA biology and translation regulatory mechanisms, including a unique translational frameshifting for the ATP8/ATP6 transcript. Furthermore, absence of the mt-mRNA maintenance factor LRPPRC led to a mitochondrial transcriptome structured differently, with specific mRNA regions exhibiting increased or decreased structuredness. This highlights the role of LRPPRC in maintaining mRNA folding to promote mt-mRNA stabilization and efficient translation. In conclusion, our mt-mRNA folding maps reveal novel mitochondrial gene expression mechanisms, serving as a detailed reference and tool for studying them in different physiological and pathological contexts.

The human cellular nucleic acid binding protien binds G-rich elements close to translation initiation sires and promotes translation. [RNA-Seq]

Project description:CNBP is a eukaryote-conserved nucleic-acid binding protein required in mammals for embryonic development. It contains seven CCHC-type zinc-finger domains and was suggested to act as a nucleic acid chaperone, as well as a transcription factor. Here, we identify all CNBP isoforms as cytoplasmic messenger RNA (mRNA)-binding proteins. Using Photoactivatable Ribonucleoside Enhanced Cross-linking and Immunoprecipitation, we mapped its binding sites on RNA at nucleotide-level resolution on a genome-wide scale and find that CNBP interacted with 3961 mRNAs in human cell lines, preferentially at a G-rich motif close to the AUG start codon on mature mRNAs. Loss- and gain-of-function analyses coupled with system-wide RNA and protein quantification revealed that CNBP did not affect RNA abundance, but rather promoted translation of its targets. This is consistent with an RNA chaperone function of CNBP helping to resolve secondary structures, thus promoting translation. CNBP protein knockdown and RNA-seq
