The SHAPE-MaP experiment to identify RNA structures of pri-mir-142 variants

ABSTRACT: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNAs that play essential roles in RNA silencing and gene regulation. The human Microprocessor (MP) is the key factor to initiate miRNA biogenesis by cleaving primary microRNAs (pri-miRNAs). However, the Microprocessor alone cannot precisely and efficiently cleave all pri-miRNAs; thus, it requires cofactors to assist its cleavage. SRSF3 interacts with CNNC in pri-miRNAs, enhancing the MP cleavage. However, it is unknown if SRSF3 can function with other non-CNNC motifs and if secondary structure might influce CNNC function. In addition, function of SRSF7, a paralog of SRSF3, in the SR proteins family, in miRNA biogenesis is largely unknown. In this study, by conducting the high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for the MP with SRSF3 or SRSF7 and randomized pri-miRNAs, we discovered that SRSF7 also stimulate MP clevage. Futhermore, we found that both SRSF3 and SRSF7 can function with some non-CNNC motifs and with CNNC motifs with certain secondary structures. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 governed the cleavage sites of the Microprocessor in human cells. Our findings disclose the roles SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis, demonstrate a compresenhive moleucalr mechanism of SFSF3 and SRSF7 in enhancing cleavage of MP and described in more detail the RNA-binding features of SRSF7 and SRSF3.

The high-throughput human pri-miRNA processing assays

Project description:Human Microprocessor cleaves pri-miRNAs to initiate miRNA biogenesis. The accuracy and efficiency of Microprocessor cleavage ensure appropriate miRNA sequence and expression and thus its proper gene regulation. However, Microprocessor cleaves many pri-miRNAs incorrectly, so it requires assistance from its many cofactors. For example, SRSF3 enhances Microprocessor cleavage by interacting with the CNNC motif in pri-miRNAs. However, whether SRSF3 can function with other motifs and/or requires the motifs in a certain secondary structure is unknown. In addition, the function of SRSF7 (a paralog of SRSF3) in miRNA biogenesis still needs to be discovered. Here, we demonstrated that SRSF7 could stimulate Microprocessor cleavage. In addition, by conducting high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays for Microprocessor and SRSF7 or SRSF3, we demonstrated that SRSF7 and SRSF3 function with the CRC and CNNC motifs, adopting certain secondary structures. In addition, SRSF7 and SRSF3 affect the Microprocessor cleavage sites in human cells. Our findings demonstrate the roles of SRSF7 in miRNA biogenesis and provide a comprehensive view of the molecular mechanism of SRSF7 and SRSF3 in enhancing Microprocessor cleavage.

The high-throughput pri-miRNA cleavage assays on 262144 variants

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.

The bulges control in pri-miRNA processing in the position and strand-dependent manner

Project description:The microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is responsible for the production of miRNAs that play critical roles in gene expression and numerous human diseases. The adequate biogenesis of miRNAs is largely determined by the efficiency and fidelity of primary microRNA (pri-miRNA) processing by Microprocessor. Here, we investigated the roles of a secondary RNA element, an RNA bulge, in pri-miRNA processing. We discovered that the 3p-strand bulges in positions 7-9 from the Microprocessor cleavage sites (midB_7-9) contributes to determining the cleavage sites of Microprocessor, the 5p- and 3p-strand bugles in positions 10-12 (midB_10-12) blocked the unproductive cleavage, and the 3p-strand bulges in positions 6-7 (seedB) inhibited the productive cleavage of Microprocessor. The 5p-strand midB_10-12 was found enriched and conserved in many pri-miRNAs of humans and other organisms. In addition, by analyzing the published Microprocessor-RNA structure and doing mutagenesis, we identified several amino acid residues of Microprocessor that explains a structure basis for the processing inhibition caused by seedB. The revealed functions of bulges in our study improves our understanding of the pri-miRNA processing by Microprocessor and implies their roles in regulating miRNA expression.

High-throughput in vitro DROSHA processing on artificial variants

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small RNAs that regulate gene expression. miRNAs are produced from primary miRNAs (pri-miRNAs), the cleavage of which is catalyzed by the Microprocessor complex. Microprocessor therefore plays a key role in determining the efficiency and precision of miRNA production, and thus the function of the final miRNA product. In this study, we utilized high-throughput sequencing-integrated enzymology with purified Microprocessor proteins and randomized pri-miRNA sequences to investigate the catalytic mechanism of Microprocessor. We identified multiple mismatches and wobble base pairs in the upper stem of pri-miRNAs, which determine the efficiency and accuracy of pri-miRNA processing. The existence of these RNA elements helps to explain the alternative cleavage mechanism of Microprocessor, which occurs for some human pri-miRNAs. We also showed that these RNA elements are targets of RNA-editing or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for regulating miRNA biogenesis. These findings considerably improve our understanding of pri-miRNA processing mechanisms, and provide a foundation for interpreting differential miRNA expression by several mechanisms, such as RNA modifications and SNPs.

A quantitative map of human primary microRNA processing sites

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.

Genome-wide quantification of microRNA processing efficiency from RNA-seq data

Project description:Microprocessor is responsible for conversion of pri-miRNA transcripts into pre-miRNA hairpins in miRNA biogenesis. The in vivo properties of this process remain enigmatic. Here, we present the first study of in vivo transcriptome-wide pri-miRNA processing using next-generation sequencing of chromatin-associated pri-miRNAs. We identify a distinctive Microprocessor signature in the transcriptome profile, from which efficiency of the endogenous processing event can be accurately quantified. This analysis reveals differential susceptibility to Microprocessor cleavage as a key regulatory step in miRNA biogenesis. Processing is highly variable among pri-miRNAs and a better predictor of miRNA abundance than primary transcription itself. Processing is also largely stable across three cell lines, suggesting a major contribution of sequence determinants. Based on differential processing efficiencies we define functionality for short sequence features adjacent to the pre-miRNA hairpin. In conclusion, we identify Microprocessor as the main hub for diversified miRNA output and suggest a role for uncoupling miRNA biogenesis from host gene expression.

The high-throughput cleavage assays on 137 C.elegans pri-miRNAs

Project description:Microprocessor (MP), cleaving primary microRNAs (pri-miRNAs) to initiate the biogenesis of thousands of miRNAs, was discovered in animals in 2004. Understanding the molecular mechanism of MP is critical for interpreting the gene-silencing roles of miRNAs in various cellular processes and human diseases. Though the molecular mechanism of human MP (hMP) has been comprehensively investigated for nearly two decades and is well understood, that of Caenorhabditis elegans MP (cMP, cDrosha-Pasha complex) is still unknown. In this study, we revealed a comprehensive molecular mechanism of cMP, distinctively from that of hMP. In the proposed mechanism, cDrosha and Pasha (DGCR8 in humans) measure ~16 bp and ~25 bp of the pri-miRNA stem, respectively, and they are coordinated in determining cleavage sites of cMP in pri-miRNAs. In addition, we also demonstrated the molecular basis for their substrate measurement. Our findings illustrate an unknown molecular mechanism of cMP, clarify differences between the mechanism of hMP and cMP, and provide a foundation for understanding multiple mechanisms regulating miRNA expression acting on cMP.

MicroRNA biogenesis is broadly disrupted by inhibition of the splicing factor SF3B1

Project description:In animals, microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis begins with cotranscriptional cleavage of the primary (pri-)miRNA by Microprocessor. Cotranscriptional splicing has been shown to influence Microprocessor cleavage for miRNAs hosted in introns of protein coding pri-miRNAs, but the impact of splicing on production of miRNAs hosted in long noncoding (lnc)RNAs is largely unknown. Here, we investigated the role of splicing in the biogenesis of miR-122, a lncRNA-hosted, highly expressed, medically important, liver-specific miRNA. We found that splicing inhibition by the SF3B1 inhibitor Pladienolide B (PlaB) led to strong and rapid reduction in transcription of endogenous, but not plasmid-encoded, pri-miR-122, resulting in reduced production of mature miR-122. To allow detection of rapid changes in miRNA biogenesis despite the high stability of mature miRNAs, we used SLAMseq to globally quantify the effects of short-term splicing inhibition on miRNA synthesis. We observed an overall decrease in biogenesis of mature miRNAs following PlaB treatment. Surprisingly, miRNAs derived from different genomic locations were similarly affected. Together, this study provides new insight into the emerging role for splicing in transcription, demonstrating novel biological importance in promotion of miR-122 biogenesis from a lncRNA, and shows that splicing is important for global miRNA biogenesis.

Global identification of target recognition and cleavage by the Microprocessor in human ESCs.

Project description:The Microprocessor plays an essential role in canonical miRNA biogenesis by facilitating cleavage of stem-loop structures in primary transcripts to yield pre-miRNAs. Although miRNA biogenesis has been extensively studied through biochemical and molecular genetic approaches, it has yet to be addressed to what extent the current miRNA biogenesis models hold true in intact cells. To address the issues of in vivo recognition and cleavage by the Microprocessor, we investigate RNAs that are associated with DGCR8 and Drosha by using immunoprecipitation coupled with next-generation sequencing. Here, we present global protein-RNA interactions with unprecedented sensitivity and specificity. Our data indicate that precursors of canonical miRNAs and miRNA-like hairpins are the major substrates of the Microprocessor. As a result of specific enrichment of nascent cleavage products, we are able to pinpoint the Microprocessor-mediated cleavage sites per se at single-nucleotide resolution. Unexpectedly, a 2-nt 3M-bM-^@M-^Y overhang invariably exists at the ends of cleaved bases instead of nascent pre-miRNAs. Besides canonical miRNA precursors, we find that two novel miRNA-like structures embedded in mRNAs are cleaved to yield pre-miRNA-like hairpins, uncoupled from miRNA maturation. Our data provide a framework for in vivo Microprocessor-mediated cleavage and a foundation for experimental and computational studies on miRNA biogenesis in living cells.
