Ribosome-bound Upf1 forms distinct 80S complexes and conducts mRNA surveillance

ABSTRACT: Upf1, Upf2, and Upf3 are the central regulators of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), the eukaryotic mRNA quality control pathway generally triggered when a premature termination codon is recognized by the ribosome. The NMD-related functions of the Upf proteins likely commence while these factors are ribosome-associated, but little is known of the timing of their ribosome binding, their specificity for ribosomes translating NMD substrates, or the nature and role of any ribosome:Upf complexes. Here, we have elucidated details of the ribosome-associated steps of NMD. By combining yeast genetics with selective ribosome profiling and co-sedimentation analyses of polysomes with wild-type and mutant Upf proteins, our approaches have identified distinct states of ribosome:Upf association. All three Upf factors manifest progressive polysome association as mRNA translation proceeds, but these events appear to be preceded by formation of a Upf1:80S complex as mRNAs initiate translation. This complex is likely executing an early mRNA surveillance function.

Genes co-regulated by the NMD factors UPF2 and SMG5

Project description:Eukaryotic cells have evolved a mechanism called nonsense mediated mRNA decay (NMD) that detects and degrades aberrant mRNAs that contain premature termination codons (PTCs). NMD has recently acquired broader importance as it has been found to regulate not only aberrant mRNAs but also a great diversity of transcripts, including wild type genes in mammals, Drosophila and yeast. Seven proteins are the core of the NMD complex: SMG1, SMG2 (UPF1), SMG3 (UPF2), SMG4 (UPF3), SMG5, SMG6 and SMG7. Plants have orthologues of most of these proteins. We have identified and characterized a number of alleles of UPF1, UPF3 and SMG5 and made 35S:UPF2 RNAi (upf2i) transgenic plants, all of which share some phenotypic characteristics. Transcriptome analysis of upf1 and upf3 mutants has identified a subset of genes coregulated by UPF1 and UPF3 and, therefore, by NMD (unpublished data). By doing further transcriptome analysis on smg5 mutants and upf2i plants we aim to build a more robust subset of NMD targets in Arabidopsis. RNA will be extracted from 17 day-old mutant, transgenic and wild type seedlings grown at 22-24 C under constant light. 6 samples were used in this experiment

Quantitative proteomics of affinity purified yeast NMD complexes

Project description:Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a major translation-dependent RNA degradation pathway required for embryo development and telomere maintenance. Core NMD factors Upf1, Upf2 and Upf3 are conserved from yeast to mammals but a model of the NMD machinery compatible with all eukaryotes is not yet available. We performed the first large-scale quantitative characterization of yeast NMD complexes through affinity purification and mass-spectrometry with 7 different NMD-related factors, with or without Rnase, in strains deleted or not for NMD genes. This extensive characterization of NMD complexes identified two distinct complexes associated with Upf1: Detector (Upf1/2/3) and Effector. Effector contained, in addition to Upf1, the mRNA decapping enzyme and two potential equivalents of mammalian Smg6/5/7: Nmd4 and Ebs1. Like the Smg proteins, Nmd4 and Ebs1 were required for efficient NMD. Our results suggest that the core eukaryotic NMD machinery is conserved across species and operates through successive Upf1-bound Detector and Effector complexes.

Upf2-mediated inhibition of nonsense mediated decay causes memory and social deficits by activating the immune response

Project description:Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is an evolutionarily conserved surveillance mechanism that targets mRNAs undergoing premature translation termination for rapid degradation as well as normal physiological transcripts. From yeast to humans, NMD requires the function of three conserved Up-frameshift (Upf) factors (Upf1, Upf2, Upf3). Interestingly, in humans, mutations in UPF2 and UPF3B are associated with intellectual disability and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the neurobiological mechanism by which deficient NMD leads to neurodevelopmental disorders remains unknown. Consequently, no treatment is currently available. Here we report that mice lacking Upf2 in the murine forebrain (Upf2 fb-KO mice) show endophenotypes associated with ASD and deficits in learning and memory. In addition, Upf2-mediated deficient NMD leads to abnormal long-term potentiation (LTP) in the hippocampus. Like patients with mutations in UPF2, Upf2 fb-KO mice showed neuroanatomical abnormalities including a smaller corpus callosum. Surprisingly, transcriptomic analysis revealed elevated mRNA expression of immune-related genes in the hippocampus of Upf2-fb-KO mice, which was accompanied by increased inflammation and progressive infiltration of peripheral immune cells. More importantly, treatment with an FDA-approved immunosuppressant, cyclophosphamide (CyP), significantly reduces brain inflammation, improves the neuroanatomical defects and the deficits in LTP and memory deficits, and reverses some of the ASD-like behaviors, notably the social deficits. Collectively, our results reveal the biological basis underlying neurodevelopmental disorders associated with dysfunctional NMD. Moreover, these findings suggest that immunosuppressant drugs, like CyP, may provide a new therapeutic approach for the treatment of patients with mutations in core NMD components.

RNAi knock down of known nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) factors in Drosophila cells

Project description:All eukaryotes studied to date have the capacity to detect and degrade mRNAs harboring premature translation termination codons (PTCs) in a process called nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) (reviewed in Wagner E & Lykke-Andersen J, 2002). This surveillance system allows the cell to prevent the expression of potentially harmful truncated proteins. trans-acting factors required for NMD in Drosophila are the proteins UPF1, UPF2, UPF3, SMG-1, SMG-5 and SMG-6. To identify mRNAs naturally regulated by NMD, we analyzed expression profiles in Drosophila cells RNAi-depleted of known NMD factors using high-density oligonucleotide arrays.

UPF1 ATPase autoinhibition and activation modulate RNA binding kinetics and NMD efficiency 2

Project description:The RNA helicase UPF1 interacts with mRNAs, mRNA decay machinery, and the terminating ribosome to promote nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). Structural and biochemical data have revealed that UPF1 exists in an enzymatically autoinhibited “closed” state. Upon binding the NMD protein UPF2, UPF1 undergoes an extensive conformational change into a more enzymatically active “open” state, which exhibits enhanced ATPase and helicase activity. However, mechanically deficient UPF1 mutants can support efficient NMD, bringing into question the roles of UPF1 enzymatic autoinhibition and activation in NMD. Here, we identify two additional important features of the activated open state: slower nucleic acid binding kinetics and enhanced ATP-stimulated nucleic acid dissociation kinetics. Computational modeling based on empirical measurements of UPF1, UPF2, and RNA interaction kinetics predicts that the majority of UPF1-RNA binding and dissociation events in cells occur independently of UPF2 binding. We find that UPF1 mutants with either reduced or accelerated dissociation from RNA have NMD defects, whereas UPF1 mutants that are more dependent on UPF2 for catalytic activity remain active on well-established NMD targets. These findings support a model in which the kinetics of UPF1-mRNA interactions are important determinants of cellular NMD efficiency.

Identification of genes regulated by NMD in Arabidopsis

Project description:The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway (NMD) is a quality control mechanism that detects and degrades mRNAs that contain premature translation termination codons (PTCs), thus preventing the production of potentially harmful truncated proteins. NMD has been studied in a number of organisms including humans, yeast, Drosophila, C. elegans and recently Arabidopsis. Recently the NMD process has been shown to have a wider significance in regulating the levels of mRNA expression for a wide range of genes in yeast and Drosophila. Several genes have been found to be required for NMD in a variety of organisms, including UPF1 and UPF3. We have identified and characterised a number of alleles of UPF1 and UPF3 in Arabidopsis that are defective in NMD. By doing a transcriptomic analysis of two NMD mutants, upf1-1 and upf3-1, and wild type plants we aim to identify the subset of genes that are co-regulated by UPF1 and UPF3 and, therefore, by NMD in Arabidopsis. RNA will be extracted from 17-day-old mutant and wild type seedlings grown at 22-24 C under constant light.
