Small RNAs in S. cerevisiae reconstituted with RNAi

ABSTRACT: The RNA interference (RNAi) pathway is found in most eukaryotic lineages but curiously is absent in others, including that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here, we show that reconstituting RNAi in S. cerevisiae causes loss of a beneficial dsRNA virus, known as killer virus. Incompatibility between RNAi and killer viruses extends to other fungal species, in that RNAi is absent in all species known to possess dsRNA killer viruses, whereas killer viruses are absent in closely related species that retained RNAi. Thus, the advantage imparted by acquiring and retaining killer viruses explains the persistence of RNAi-deficient species during fungal evolution.

High throughput sequencing of small RNAs from Drosophila cells infected with a panel of viruses

Project description:We report the cloning and sequencing of both endogenous small RNAs and virus-derived siRNAs produced by the antiviral RNAi pathway in Drosophila. We find that a diverse panel of viruses are targeted by the RNAi pathway in Drosophila to produce abundant virus-derived siRNAs, and these siRNAs map to various locations within the viral genomes. Knockdown of various RNAi and miRNA pathway components alters the levels of these viral small RNAs. Drosophila DL1 cells were treated with dsRNA for 3 days to deplete factors involved in the antiviral RNAi pathway and miRNA pathway, then were challenged with one of four viruses for 4 days. Total RNA was collected, and the small RNA populations from 15-29 nt were cloned and sequenced.

ADAR1 biology can hinder effective antiviral RNA interference

Project description:Viruses constantly evolve and adapt to the antiviral defenses of their hosts. The biology of viral circumvention of these selective pressures can often be attributed to the acquisition of novel antagonistic gene products or by rapid genome change that prevents host recognition. To study viral evasion of RNA interference (RNAi)-based defenses, we established a robust antiviral system in mammalian cells using recombinant Sendai virus designed to be targeted by endogenous host microRNAs (miRNAs) with perfect complementarity. Using this system, we previously demonstrated the intrinsic ability of positive-strand RNA viruses to escape this selective pressure via homologous recombination, which was not observed in negative-strand RNA viruses. Here we show that given extensive time, escape of miRNA-targeted Sendai virus was enabled by host adenosine deaminase acting on RNA 1 (ADAR1). Independent of the viral transcript targeted, ADAR1 editing resulted in disruption of the miRNA-silencing motif, suggesting an intolerance for extensive RNA:RNA interactions necessary for antiviral RNAi. This was further supported in N. benthamiana, where exogenous expression of ADAR1 interfered with endogenous RNAi. Together, these results suggest that ADAR1 diminishes the effectiveness of RNAi and may explain why it is absent in species that utilize this antiviral defense system.

Adenovirus prevents dsRNA formation by promoting efficient splicing of viral RNA

Project description:Eukaryotic cells recognize intracellular pathogens through pattern recognition receptors, including sensors of aberrant nucleic acid structures. Sensors of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) are known to detect replication intermediates of RNA viruses. It has been suggested that annealing of mRNA from symmetrical transcription of both top and bottom strands of DNA virus genomes can produce dsRNA during infection. Supporting this hypothesis, nearly all DNA viruses encode inhibitors of dsRNA-recognition pathways. However, direct evidence that DNA viruses produce dsRNA is lacking. Contrary to dogma, we show that the nuclear-replicating DNA virus adenovirus (AdV) does not produce detectable levels of dsRNA during infection. In contrast, abundant dsRNA is detected within the nucleus of cells infected with AdV mutants that lack the virus-directed ubiquitin ligase required for efficient processing of viral RNA. In the presence of nuclear dsRNA, the cytoplasmic dsRNA sensor PKR is relocalized and activated within the nucleus. Accumulation of viral dsRNA occurs in the late phase of infection, when unspliced viral transcripts form intron/exon base pairs between top and bottom strand transcripts. We propose that DNA viruses actively promote efficient splicing and mRNA processing to limit dsRNA formation, thus avoiding detection and restriction by host nucleic acid sensors.

Enhanced RNAi does not provide efficient innate antiviral immunity in mice in vivo (ESCs TrapR small RNA-Seq)

Project description:In RNA interference (RNAi), long double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is cleaved by Dicer endonuclease into small RNA interfering RNAs (siRNAs), which guide degradation of complementary RNAs. While RNAi mediates antiviral innate immunity in plants and many invertebrates, vertebrates adopted sequence-independent response and their Dicer produces siRNAs inefficiently because it is adapted to process small hairpin microRNA precursors in the gene-regulating microRNA pathway. Mammalian RNAi is thus a rudimentary pathway of unclear significance. To investigate its antiviral potential, we modified mouse Dicer locus to express a truncated variant (DicerΔHEL1) known to stimulate RNAi. Next, we analyzed how DicerΔHEL1/wt mice respond to four RNA viruses: Coxsackievirus B3 (CVB3) and encephalomyocarditis virus (ECMV) from Picornaviridae; tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) from Flaviviridae; and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) from Arenaviridae. Increased Dicer activity in DicerΔHEL1/wt mice had no antiviral effect. This result supports insignificant antiviral function of endogenous mammalian RNAi in vivo. However, we also report that sufficiently high expression of DicerΔHEL1 suppressed LCMV in embryonic stem cells and in a transgenic mouse model. Altogether, mice with increased Dicer activity offer a new benchmark for identifying and studying viruses susceptible to mammalian RNAi in vivo.
