Genetic regulation of nascent RNA maturation revealed by direct RNA nanopore sequencing [nanopore]

ABSTRACT: Quantitative trait loci analyses have revealed an important role for genetic variants in regulating alternative splicing (AS) and alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) in humans. Yet, these studies are generally performed with mature mRNA, so they report on the outcome rather than the processes of RNA maturation and thus may overlook how variants directly modulate pre-mRNA processing. The order in which the many introns of a human gene are removed can substantially influence AS, while nascent RNA polyadenylation can affect RNA stability and decay. However, how splicing order and poly(A) tail length are regulated by genetic variation has never been explored. Here, we used direct RNA nanopore sequencing to investigate allele-specific pre-mRNA maturation in 12 human lymphoblastoid cell lines. We found frequent splicing order differences between alleles and uncovered significant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-splicing order associations in 17 genes. This included SNPs located in or near splice sites as well as more distal intronic and exonic SNPs. Moreover, several genes showed allele-specific poly(A) tail lengths, many of which also had a skewed allelic abundance ratio. HLA class I transcripts, which encode proteins that play an essential role in antigen presentation, showed the most allele-specific splicing orders, which frequently co-occurred with allele-specific AS, APA or poly(A) tail length differences. Together, our results expose new layers of genetic regulation of pre-mRNA maturation and highlight the power of long-read RNA sequencing for allele-specific analyses.

Extension of mRNA poly(A) tails and 3′UTRs during neuronal differentiation exhibits variable association with post-transcriptional dynamics

Project description:Differentiation of neural progenitor cells into mature neuronal phenotypes relies on extensive temporospatial coordination of mRNA expression to support the development of functional brain circuitry. Cleavage and polyadenylation of mRNA has tremendous regulatory capacity through the alteration of mRNA stability and modulation of microRNA (miRNA) function, however the extent of utilization in neuronal development is currently unclear. Here, we employed poly(A) tail sequencing, mRNA sequencing, ribosome profiling and small RNA sequencing to explore the functional relationship between mRNA abundance, translation, poly(A) tail length, alternative polyadenylation (APA) and miRNA expression in an in vitro model of neuronal differentiation. Differential analysis revealed a strong bias towards poly(A) tail and 3´UTR lengthening during differentiation, both of which were associated with changes in mRNA abundance but not translation. Globally, changes in miRNA expression were predominantly associated with mRNA abundance and translation, however several miRNA-mRNA pairings with potential to regulate poly(A) tail length were identified. Furthermore, 3´UTR lengthening was observed to significantly increase the inclusion of non-conserved miRNA binding sites, potentially enhancing the regulatory capacity of these molecules in mature neuronal cells. Together, our findings suggest poly(A) tail length and APA function as part of a rich post-transcriptional regulatory matrix during neuronal differentiation.

Genome-wide analysis of mRNA polyadenylation and translation during vertebrate oocyte maturation

Project description:Changes in gene expression are required to orchestrate changes in cell state during development. Most cells change patterns of gene expression through transcriptional regulation. In contrast, oocytes are transcriptionally silent and use changes in mRNA poly-A tail length to control protein production. Recent technical advances have enabled genome-wide measurement of poly-A tail length. Poly-A tail lengthening is correlated with translational activation and poly-A tail shortening is correlated with translational repression at a global level during early development. However, it is not clear how poly-A tail changes affect mRNA translation at a global level during vertebrate oocyte maturation. We used TAIL-seq and polyribosome analysis to measure poly-A tail and translational changes during oocyte maturation in Xenopus laevis. We found that the transcriptome undergoes large-scale poly-A and translational changes during oocyte maturation and that poly-A tail length and translation are well-correlated. Interestingly, we found that poly-A tail changes precede translation changes. Additionally, we identified a family of U-rich sequence elements that are enriched near the polyadenylation signal of polyadenylated and translationally activated mRNAs. Interestingly, we found that cytoplasmic polyadenylation is not sufficient to activate translation, which requires a specific density and spacing of U-rich elements. Collectively, our data shows that changes in mRNA polyadenylation are the dominant mechanism controlling protein expression during vertebrate oocyte maturation and that these changes are controlled by a group of cis-acting sequence elements. Our results provide insight into mechanisms of translational control in oocytes and identify novel proteins important for the completion of meiosis.

Alternative polyadenylation alters protein dosage by switching between intronic and 3' UTR sites

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation (APA) creates distinct transcripts from the same gene by cleaving the pre-mRNA at poly(A) sites that can lie within the 3' UTR, introns, or exons. Most studies focus on APA within the 3' UTR, but here we show that CPSF6 insufficiency alters protein levels and causes a developmental syndrome by deregulating APA throughout the transcript. In neonatal humans and zebrafish larvae, CPSF6 insufficiency shifts poly(A) site usage between the 3'UTR and internal sites in a pathway-specific manner. Genes associated with neuronal function undergo mostly intronic APA, reducing their expression, while genes associated with heart and skeletal function mostly undergo 3' UTR APA and are upregulated. This suggests that, in healthy conditions, cells toggle between internal and 3'UTR APA to modulate protein expression.

Control of poly(A)-tail length and translation in vertebrate oocytes and early embryos

Project description:During oocyte maturation and early embryonic development, poly(A)-tail lengths strongly influence mRNA translation. However, how tail lengths are controlled at different developmental stages has been unclear. Here, we performed tail-length and translational profiling of mRNA reporter libraries (each with > 10 million 3ʹ-UTR sequence variants) in frog oocytes and embryos, and fish embryos. These analyses revealed that the UUUUA motif specifies cytoplasmic polyadenylation and identified diverse context features that modulate the activity of this 5-mer. Additional sequence motifs drive stage-specific deadenylation in embryos, and UUUUA and C-rich motifs drive tail-length-independent translational repression in oocytes. A neural network model accurately predicts tail-length change during oocyte maturation in frogs, mice, and humans. Analyses of human sequence variants showed that those predicted to disrupt tail-length control have been under negative selection, implying that our insights into control of poly(A)-tail length and translation have implications for human health and fertility.

Regulation of alternative cleavage and polyadenylation by 3’ end processing and splicing factors

Project description:Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) results in mRNA isoforms containing different 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs) and/or coding sequences. How core cleavage and polyadenylation (C/P) factors regulate APA is not well understood. Using siRNA knockdown coupled with deep sequencing, we found that several C/P factors can play significant roles in 3’UTR-APA. Whereas Pcf11 and Fip1 enhance usage of proximal poly(A) sites (pAs), CFI-25/68, PABPN1, and PABPC1 promote usage of distal pAs. Strong cis element biases were found for pAs regulated by CFI or Fip1, and the distance between pAs plays an important role in APA regulation. In addition, intronic pAs are substantially regulated by splicing factors, with U1 mostly influencing C/P events in 5’ introns and U2 impacting those in efficiently spliced introns. Furthermore, PABPN1 regulates expression of transcripts with pAs near the transcription start site, a property possibly related to its role in RNA degradation. Finally, we found that groups of APA events regulated by C/P factors are also modulated in cell differentiation and development with distinct trends. Together, our results indicate that the abundance of different C/P factors and splicing factors plays diverse roles in APA, and is relevant to APA regulation in biological conditions. knockdown experiments of 23 C/P factors, 3 splicing factors and U1D in mouse C2C12 myoblast cells

mRNA Poly(A)-tail Changes Specified by Deadenylation Broadly Reshape Translation in Drosophila Oocytes and Early Embryos

Project description:Because maturing oocytes and early embryos lack transcription, posttranscriptional regulatory processes must control their development. To better understand this control, we profiled translational efficiencies and poly(A)-tail lengths throughout Drosophila oocyte maturation and early embryonic development. The correspondence between translational-efficiency changes and tail-length changes indicated that tail-length changes broadly reshape translational activity until gastrulation, when this coupling disappears. Relative changes were largely retained in the absence of poly(A)-tail lengthening, which indicated that selective poly(A)-tail shortening primarily specifies the changes. Many translational changes depended on PAN GU and Smaug, and both acted primarily through tail-length changes. Our results also revealed tail-length–independent mechanisms of translational control that repressed translation regardless of tail-length changes during oocyte maturation, maintained translation despite tail-length shortening during oocyte maturation, and prevented detectable translation of bicoid and several other mRNAs before egg activation. In addition to these fundamental insights, our results provide valuable resources for future studies.
