Identifying the transcriptomic effects of tRNA-induced proline-to-serine mistranslation in Drosophila melanogaster

ABSTRACT: Mistranslation describes the misincorporation of an amino acid into a nascent polypeptide. Mistranslation has diverse effects on multicellular eukaryotes and is implicated in several human diseases. We introduced a mistranslating serine transfer RNA (tRNA) into Drosophila melanogaster that misincorporates serine at proline codons and found that it affected male and female flies differently. Here, we compare the transcriptomic response of male and female flies to mistranslation to identify cellular pathways that underlie this sex-specific response. Both males and females downregulated genes associated with metabolism in response to proline-to-serine mistranslation. Only males downregulated genes associated with developmental processes and response to negative stimuli such as infection, whereas only females downregulated aerobic respiration and ATP synthesis genes. Both sexes upregulated genes associated with gametogenesis but females upregulated cell cycle and DNA maintenance genes, suggesting that mistranslation may compromise genome integrity in females. This transcriptomic analysis advances our understanding of how males and females respond to mistranslation and has important implications for future studies that examine the influence of mistranslation on disease.

Evolution of robustness to protein mistranslation by accelerated protein turnover

Identification of proline to serine mistranslation in Drosophila melanogaster pupae

Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the adaptor molecules required for reading of the genetic code and the accurate production of proteins. tRNA variants can lead to genome-wide mistranslation, the misincorporation of amino acids not specified by the standard genetic code, into nascent proteins. While genome sequencing has identified putative mistranslating tRNA variants in human populations, little is known regarding how mistranslation affects multicellular organisms. Here, we create a Drosophila melanogaster model for mistranslation by integrating a serine tRNA variant that mistranslates serine for proline (tRNA(Ser)[UGG, G26A]) into the fly genome. Using mass spectrometry, we find that tRNA(Ser)[UGG, G26A] misincorporates serine for proline at a frequency of ~ 0.6% per codon. This model will enable studies into the synergistic effects of mistranslating tRNA variants and disease-causing alleles.

Detecting mistranslation from a serine tRNA with proline anticodon expressed in yeast

Detecting mistranslation in yeast expressing tRNA variants

Project description:Mistranslation, the mis-incorporation of an amino acid not specified by the “standard” genetic code, occurs in all cells. tRNA variants that increase mistranslation arise spontaneously and engineered tRNAs can achieve mistranslation frequencies approaching 10% in yeast and bacteria. The goal of this study was to detect mistranslation from two different tRNA variants. The first variant, tRNA-Pro-G3:U70, has a mutation in its acceptor stem creating a G3:U70 base pair which is the key identity element for the alanine tRNA synthetase. This tRNA should be charged with alanine and mis-incorporate alanine at proline codons. The second variant, tRNA-Ser-UCU,G26A, is a serine tRNA with an arginine anticodon and a G26A secondary mutation to dampen function and prevent lethal levels of mistranslation. This tRNA should mis-incorporate serine at arginine codons.

Evolution of robustness to protein mistranslation by accelerated protein turnover

Project description:To investigate how organisms mitigate the deleterious effects of mistranslation during evolution, a mutant tRNA was expressed in S. cerevisiae. The expression of Candida Ser-tRNACAG from a low copy plasmid in S. cerevisiae promoted mistranslation events by random incorporation of both serine and leucine at CUG codons. As mistranslation causes an overload of the protein quality pathways, it disrupts cellular protein homeostasis leading to a major fall in fitness. Laboratory evolutionary experiments were performed to study whether the fitness cost of mistranslation can be lowered. We also wanted to identify the cost-reduction strategy: reducing the frequencies of errors (mitigation), or increasing tolerance to errors (robustness), either by global or local activities. Gene expression was measured in the ancestor (non-evolved) lineage in two different situations: 1) carrying an empty vector and 2) expressing the mutant Ser-tRNACAG. Gene expression was also measured in three ambiguously evolved lineages (B3, D11, H9) in both situations (carrying an empty vector and expressing the mutant tRNA). Three independent experiments were performed for each lineage. Non-evolved strain with empty vector was used as control sample.

Mistranslation accelerates the adaptation of Candida albicans to Fluconazole

Project description:The leucine CUG codon was reassigned to serine in the fungal pathogen Candida albicans. To clarify the biological role of this tuneable codon ambiguity on drug resistance, we evolved C. albicans strains that were engineered to mistranslate the CUG codon at constitutively elevated levels, in the presence and absence of the antifungal drug fluconazole. Elevated levels of mistranslation resulted in the rapid acquisition of resistance to fluconazole.

Translation machinery for deliberate mistranslation of the genetic code in Bacteria

Project description:“Inaccurate” expression of the genetic code, also known as mistranslation, is an emerging paradigm in microbial studies. Growing evidence indicates that many microbial pathogens can deliberately mistranslate their genetic code to help invade a host or evade host immune responses. However, discovering new capacities for deliberate mistranslation remains a challenge because each group of pathogens typically employs a unique mistranslation mechanism. In this study, we address this problem by studying duplicated genes of aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. Using bacterial prolyl-tRNA synthe¬tase (ProRS) genes as an example, we identify an anomalous ProRS isoform, ProRSx, and a corre¬sponding tRNA, tRNAProA, that are predominately found in plant pathogens from Streptomyces species. We then show that tRNAProA has an unusual hybrid structure that allows this tRNA to mistranslate alanine codons as proline. We finally provide biochemical, genetic, and mass-spectro-metric evidence that cells which express ProRSx and tRNAProA can translate GCU alanine codons both as alanine and proline. This dual use of alanine codons creates a hidden proteome diversity due to stochastic Ala→Pro mutations in protein sequences. Thus, we show that important plant pathogens are equipped with a tool to alter the identity of their sense codons. This finding reveals the first example of a natural tRNA synthetase/tRNA pair for dedicated mistranslation of sense codons.

Quantification of proline to serine mistranslation in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain expressing an inducible tRNA variant

Project description:Altering the genetic code for applications in synthetic biology and genetic code expansion involves engineered tRNAs that incorporate amino acids that differ from what is defined by the “standard” genetic code. Since these engineered tRNA variants can be lethal due to proteotoxic stress, regulating their expression is necessary to achieve high levels of the resulting novel proteins. Mechanisms to positively regulate transcription with exogenous activator proteins like those often used to regulate RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) transcribed genes are not applicable to tRNAs as their expression by RNA polymerase III requires elements internal to the tRNA. Here, we show that tRNA expression is repressed by overlapping transcription from an adjacent RNAP II promoter. Regulating the expression of the RNAP II promoter allows inverse regulation of the tRNA. Placing either Gal4 or TetR-VP16 activated promoters downstream of a mistranslating tRNA serine variant that mis-incorporates serine at proline codons in Saccharomyces cerevisiae allows mistranslation at a level not otherwise possible because of the toxicity of the unregulated tRNA. Using mass spectrometry, we determine th frequency of mistranslation in both the induced and repressed conditions of the galactose inducible and tetracycline inducible systems.
