Arabidopsis HOT3/eIF5B1 constrains rRNA RNAi by facilitating 18S rRNA maturation during translation initiation (RNA-Seq)

ABSTRACT: Ribosome biogenesis is essential for protein synthesis in gene expression. Yeast eIF5B has been shown biochemically to facilitate 18S rRNA 3’ end maturation during late-40S ribosomal subunit assembly and gate the transition from translation initiation to elongation. But the effects of eIF5B have not been studied at the genome-wide level in any organism, and 18S rRNA 3’ end maturation is poorly understood in plants. Arabidopsis HOT3/eIF5B1 was found to promote development and heat-stress acclimation by translational regulation, but its molecular function remained unknown. Here, we show that HOT3 is a late-stage ribosome biogenesis factor that facilitates 18S rRNA 3’ end processing and is a translation initiation factor that globally impacts the transition from initiation to elongation. By developing and implementing 18S-ENDseq, we revealed previously unknown events in 18S rRNA 3’ end maturation or metabolism. We quantitatively defined new processing hotspots and identified adenylation as the prevalent non-templated RNA modification at the 3’ ends of pre-18S rRNAs. Aberrant 18S rRNA maturation in hot3 further activated RNAi to generate RDR1- and DCL2/4-dependent risiRNAs mainly from a 3’ portion of 18S rRNA. We further showed that risiRNAs in hot3 were predominantly localized in ribosome-free fractions not responsible for the 18S rRNA maturation or translation initiation defects in hot3. Our study uncovered the molecular function of HOT3/eIF5B1 in 18S rRNA maturation at the late-40S assembly stage and revealed the regulatory crosstalk among ribosome biogenesis, mRNA translation initiation, and siRNA biogenesis in plants.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic debilitating joint disease which is strongly associated with ageing. OA involves pathological cellular processes in all joint structures and affects articular cartilage integrity, leading to dysfunctional joint articulation. The biomolecular processes that catalyze the disturbances in the articular chondrocyte phenotype leading to OA are poorly understood, and it is expected that a comprehensive understanding of the avenues leading to catabolic changes and disruption of articular chondrocyte homeostasis will provide important cues for future treatments of the condition. Chondrocytes are specialized secretory cells with highly active protein translational machinery, enabling the synthesis and maintenance of the protein-rich cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM). Disturbances in chondrocyte protein translation in cartilage development and OA are connected to mTOR activity, ER stress, unfolded protein response (UPR)and CHOP-mediated apoptosis. These responses change the downstream translational activity of the biosynthesized ribosome. The assembled mammalian ribosome is built from ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), together with more than 80 different protein subunits. At the heart of the ribosome, the 18S rRNA guides the decoding of the mRNA message, while an ancient ribozyme activity in the 28S rRNA forms the core of the peptidyltransferase center that polymerizes the amino acid sequence encoded by the mRNA into functional proteins. Post-transcriptional maturation of rRNAs is an integral part of the biosynthesis of ribosomes and ribonucleolytic processing of the major 47S rRNA precursor into mature 18S, 5.8S, and 28S rRNAs is rate limiting for ribosome biogenesis. The U3 small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) is an evolutionarily highly conserved box C/D-class snoRNA which catalyzes the endoribonucleolytic processing of the 5’ external transcribed spacer (ETS) of the 47S pre-rRNA by base complementarity-guided pre-rRNA substrate recognition and plays a crucial role in the maturation of 18S rRNA. Although extensively studied in yeast, it was only recently demonstrated that U3 snoRNA is indispensable for rRNA maturation in human cells. Pathways controlling ribosome activity have previously been described in the regulation of chondrocyte homeostasis. We here now postulate that not only ribosome activity is involved in chondrocyte homeostasis, but that OA pathophysiological situations can also cause alterations in chondrocyte ribosome biogenesis with consequences for cellular protein translation. Since U3 snoRNA-driven rRNA production is rate-limiting in ribosome biogenesis, we hypothesized that the U3 snoRNA is critical for chondrocyte homeostasis. In this study we therefor aimed to determine whether OA pathophysiological conditions interact with chondrocyte U3 snoRNA levels, thereby influencing rRNA levels and chondrocyte translation capacity.
