Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) biogenesis begins with Drosha cleavage, the fidelity of which is critical for downstream processing and mature miRNA target specificity. To understand how pri-miRNA sequence and structure influence Drosha cleavage, we studied the processing of three pri-miR-9 paralogs (pri-miR-9-1, pri-miR-9-2 and pri-miR-9-3), which encode the same miRNA but differ in the surrounding scaffold. We show that pri-miR-9-1 has a unique Drosha cleavage profile due to its kinked tertiary structure. Cleavage of pri-miR-9-1, but not pri-miR-9-2 or pri-miR-9-3, generates an alternative-miR-9 with a shifted seed sequence that expands the scope of its target RNAs. Here, we report the the miRNA-seq data of HEK293T and HeLa cell lines transfected with different pri-miR-9 constructs.

Project description:Maturation of canonical microRNA (miRNA) is initiated by DROSHA that cleaves the primary transcript (pri-miRNA). Over 1,800 miRNA loci are annotated in humans, but it remains largely unknown if and at which sites the pri-miRNAs are cleaved by DROSHA. Here we performed in vitro processing on a full set of human pri-miRNAs (miRBase v21) followed by sequencing. This comprehensive profiling enabled us to classify miRNAs based on DROSHA-dependence and map their cleavage sites with respective processing efficiency measures. Only 758 pri-miRNAs are confidently processed by DROSHA, while the majority may be non-canonical or false entries. Analyses of the DROSHA-dependent pri-miRNAs show key cis-elements for processing. We observe widespread alternative processing as well as unproductive cleavage events such as “nick” or “inverse” processing. SRSF3 is a broad-acting auxiliary factor modulating alternative processing and suppressing unproductive processing. The profiling data and methods developed in this study will allow systematic analyses of miRNA regulation.

Project description:MicroRNA (miRNA) maturation is initiated by DROSHA, a double-stranded RNA (dsRNA)-specific RNase III enzyme. By cleaving primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs) at specific positions, DROSHA serves as a main determinant of miRNA sequences and a highly selective gate-keeper for the canonical miRNA pathway. However, the sites of DROSHA-mediated processing have not been annotated on a genomic scale, and it remains unclear to what extent DROSHA functions outside the miRNA pathway. Here we establish a protocol termed ‘formaldehyde crosslinking and immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (fCLIP-seq)’ that allows identification of DROSHA cleavage sites at single nucleotide resolution. fCLIP identifies numerous cleavage sites that do not match the ends of annotated mature miRNAs, particularly at the 3′ termini, suggesting widespread end modifications during miRNA maturation such as trimming and tailing. fCLIP also finds many pri-miRNAs undergoing alternative processing, yielding multiple miRNA isoforms. Moreover, we discover dozens of novel substrates that are bound and cleaved by DROSHA. These substrates are processed less efficiently than canonical pri-miRNAs, and produce only minute amounts of small RNAs. Depletion of DROSHA results in an increase of the hairpin-containing transcripts. Thus, the hairpins may serve mainly as cis-elements for DROSHA-mediated gene regulation rather than as miRNA genes. fCLIP-seq not only accurately maps the cleavage sites of DROSHA and suggests noncanonical functions of DROSHA, but also could be a general tool for investigating interactions between dsRNA binding proteins and structured RNAs.

Project description:We investigate the role of a long ncRNA transcribed from an ultraconserved region (T-UCR) in the control of post-transcriptional pri-miRNA processing. The regulation is based on complementarity between the lower stem region in pri-miR-195 transcript and the ultraconserved sequence in Uc.283+A, which prevents pri-miRNA cleavage by Drosha. Mutation of the site in either RNA molecule uncouples regulation in vivo and in vitro. We propose a model in which lower-stem strand invasion by Uc.283+A impairs microprocessor recognition and efficient pri-miRNA cropping. In this work, we characterize a new role for Uc.283+A as a direct interactor and regulator of pri-miRNA-195 maturation at the level of Drosha processing. We combine cellular assays with in vitro biochemical analyses to reveal the first case of RNA-directed downregulation of miRNA biogenesis by a T-UCR

Variant 1 represents a SNP variant (8x(T) repeat in the sequence). Variant 2 represents a SNP variant (9x(T) repeat in the sequence).

Project description:Microprocessor (MP), DROSHA-DGCR8, processes primary miRNA transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to initiate miRNA biogenesis. The canonical cleavage mechanism of MP has been extensively investigated and comprehensively validated for two decades. However, this canonical mechanism cannot account for the processing of certain pri-miRNAs in animals. In this study, by conducting high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for approximately 260,000 pri-miRNA sequences, we discovered and comprehensively characterized a noncanonical cleavage mechanism of MP. This noncanonical mechanism does not need several RNA and protein elements essential for the canonical mechanism; instead, it utilizes previously unrecognized DROSHA dsRNA recognition sites (DRES). Interestingly, the noncanonical mechanism is conserved across animals and plays a particularly significant role in C. elegans. Our established noncanonical mechanism elucidates MP cleavage in numerous RNA substrates unaccounted for by the canonical mechanism in animals. This study suggests a broader substrate repertoire of animal MPs and an expanded regulatory landscape for miRNA biogenesis.
