ADAD2 facilitates piRNA biogenesis and spermiogenesis in mice

ABSTRACT: Adenosine Deaminase Domain Containing 2 (ADAD2) is a testis-specific protein composed of a double-stranded RNA binding domain and a non-catalytic adenosine deaminase domain. A recent study showed that ADAD2 is indispensable for the male reproduction in mice. However, its detailed function remains elusive. The aims of this study are to investigate the cause of male sterility in Adad2 knockout mice and to understand the molecular function of ADAD2. RNA-seq analyses were carried out to analyze the changes in the transcriptome and piRNA population of Adad2 mutant testes.

BTBD18 licenses piRNA-generating loci to support mouse germ cell development

Project description:PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs essential for animal germ cell development. Despite intense investigation of post-transcriptional processing, piRNA biogenesis at the chromatin level remains enigmatic. Here we document that BTBD18 is a pachytene nuclear protein in mouse testes that occupies intergenic pachytene piRNA-producing loci with remarkable genome-wide specificity. Deficiency of Btbd18 in mice results in disrupted piRNA biogenesis and male sterility. Transcriptome profiling, chromatin accessibility and RNA polymerase II occupancy demonstrate that BTBD18 facilitates expression of pachytene piRNA precursors by promoting transcription elongation. Therefore, we conclude that BTBD18 functionally licenses genomic sources of piRNAs for transcription activation in mice, and propose that piRNA precursor biogenesis is regulated by transcriptional elongation.

piRNA-guided slicing specifies transcripts for Zucchini dependent, phased piRNA biogenesis

Project description:PIWI-clade Argonaute proteins repress transposable elements in animal gonads. Their sequence specificity is conferred via bound ~23-30nt long piRNAs, which are processed from single stranded precursor RNAs. How transcripts are specified as precursors and processed into stereotypical piRNA populations are central unresolved questions. Here we show that piRNA-guided RNA cleavage in Drosophila results not only in generation of a ping-pong partner piRNA but further triggers efficient 3′ directed and phased primary piRNA biogenesis. Phasing is a feature of primary piRNAs in somatic and germline cells and a consequence of consecutive endo-nucleolytic cleavage events catalyzed by Zucchini. Formation of 3′ and 5′ ends of flanking piRNAs is therefore tightly coupled. Zucchini also participates in 3′ end formation of secondary piRNAs but its function can be bypassed by additional downstream piRNA-guided cleavages and subsequent precursor trimming. Hallmarks of Zucchini-dependent phased piRNA biogenesis are also evident in mouse testes, pointing to an evolutionarily conserved mechanism of piRNA biogenesis.

Major concepts of piRNA biogenesis revealed by the analysis of Shutdown, a co-chaperone with essential roles in the biogenesis of all Drosophila piRNA populations

Project description:In animal gonads, 23-30nt long PIWI interacting RNAs (piRNAs) guarantee genome integrity by guiding the sequence specific silencing of selfish genetic elements such as transposons. Two major branches of piRNA biogenesis, namely primary processing and ping-pong amplification, feed into the PIWI clade of Argonaute proteins. Despite our conceptual understanding of piRNA biogenesis, major gaps exist in the mechanistic understanding of the underlying molecular processes as well as in the knowledge of the involved players. Here, we demonstrate an essential role for the female sterility gene shutdown in the piRNA pathway. Shutdown, an evolutionarily conserved co-chaperone of the immunophilin class is the first piRNA biogenesis factor that is essential for all primary and secondary piRNA populations in Drosophila. Based on these findings, we define distinct groups of piRNA biogenesis factors and reveal the core concept of how PIWI family proteins are hard-wired into piRNA biogenesis processes. small-RNA libraries from 2 control samples and 7 knock-down samples of D. mel. ovaries and 2 small-RNA profiles from Piwi IP and Aub IP from OSCs.

Tudor domain containing 12 (TDRD12) is essential for secondary piRNA biogenesis in mice

Project description:Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are gonad-specific small RNAs that provide defence against transposable genetic elements called transposons. Our knowledge of piRNA biogenesis is sketchy, partly due to an incomplete inventory of the factors involved. Here, we identify Tudor domain-containing 12 (TDRD12; also known as ECAT8) as a novel piRNA biogenesis factor in mice. TDRD12 is detected in complexes containing MILI (PIWIL2), its associated primary piRNAs, and TDRD1, all of which are already implicated in secondary piRNA biogenesis. Male mice carrying either a nonsense point mutation (repro23 mice) or a targeted deletion in the Tdrd12 locus are infertile, and de-repress retrotransposons. We find that TDRD12 is dispensable for primary piRNA biogenesis but essential for production of secondary piRNAs that enter MIWI2 (PIWIL4). Cell culture studies with the insect orthologue of TDRD12 suggest a role for the multi-domain protein in mediating complex formation with other participants during secondary piRNA biogenesis. Total small RNA and immunoprecipitated small RNA were purified from mouse testis extract and Bmn4 cells for preparation of high-throughput sequencing libraries.

PIWI slicing and EXD1 drive biogenesis of nuclear piRNAs from cytosolic targets of the mouse piRNA pathway

Project description:PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) guide PIWI proteins to suppress transposable elements in animal gonads. Here we demonstrate that in the mouse embryonic male germline, endonucleolytic cleavage (slicing) of a transcript by cytosolic MILI acts as a trigger to initiate its further 5??3? processing into non-overlapping fragments. These fragments accumulate as new piRNAs within the nuclear PIWI protein MIWI2. We identify Exonuclease domain-containing 1 (EXD1) as a partner of the established MIWI2 piRNA biogenesis factor TDRD12. Although EXD1 homodimers are inactive as a nuclease, it functions as an RNA adapter within a PET (PIWI-EXD1-Tdrd12) complex. Loss of Exd1 impacts biogenesis of MIWI2 piRNAs and displays a reduction in sequences generated by MILI slicing. This results in selective depletion of repeat piRNAs that target active retrotransposons like LINE1, which are de-repressed in the mutant. We propose that PIWI slicing and EXD1 promote coordination of nucleo-cytoplasmic silencing via piRNA biogenesis. Immunoprecipitated or total small RNAs were purified and sequenced from P0 mouse testis of Exd1+/- and Exd1 -/- mice. Testes of three males were pooled together and MILI and MIWI2 immunoprecipitation was performed or total small RNAs were purified. Two replicas from different pools were prepared. For Rosa26-pi reporter mouse P0 testes of three males were pooled together and MILI and MIWI2 immunoprecipitation was performed.

Exonuclease domain-containing 1 enhances MIWI2 piRNA biogenesis via its interaction with TDRD12

Project description:PIWI proteins and their associated small RNAs called PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) restrict transposon activity in animal gonads to ensure fertility. Distinct biogenesis pathways load piRNAs into the PIWI proteins MILI and MIWI2 in the mouse male embryonic germline. While most of MILI piRNAs derive via a slicer-independent pathway, a MILI slicer endonuclease-initiated pathway loads nuclear MIWI2 with a series of phased piRNAs. Tudor domain-containing 12 (TDRD12) and its interaction partner Exonuclease domain-containing 1 (EXD1) are required for loading MIWI2, but only Tdrd12 is essential for fertility, leaving us with no explanation for the physiological role of Exd1. Using an artificial piRNA precursor, we demonstrate that MILI-triggered piRNA biogenesis is greatly reduced in the Exd1 mutant. The situation deteriorates in the sensitized Exd1 mutant (Exd1-/-; Tdrd12+/-), where diminished MIWI2 piRNA levels de-repress LINE1 retrotransposons, causing infertility. Thus, EXD1 enhances slicing-triggered MIWI2 piRNA biogenesis via a functional interaction with TDRD12.
