Global identification and characterization of intermediate-size non-coding RNAs in Oryza sativa

ABSTRACT: In this study, we employed a special size fractionation and cDNA library construction method followed by 454 deep sequencing to systematically profile rice intermediate-size ncRNAs. Our analysis resulted in the identification of 1349 ncRNAs in total, including 754 novel ncRNAs of an unknown functional category. Chromosome distribution of all identified ncRNAs showed no strand bias, and displayed a pattern similar to that observed in protein-coding genes with few chromosome dependencies. More than half of the ncRNAs were centered around the plus-strand of the 5’ and 3’ termini of the coding regions. The majority of the novel ncRNAs were rice specific, while 78% of the small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) were conserved. Tandem duplication drove the expansion of over half of the snoRNA gene families. Furthermore, 90% of the snoRNA candidates were shown to produce small RNAs between 20-30 nt, 80% of which were associated with ARGONAUT proteins generally, and AGO1b in particular. Overall, our findings provide a comprehensive view of an intermediate-size non-coding transcriptome in a monocot species, which will serve as a useful platform for an in-depth analysis of ncRNA functions.

Genomic features and regulatory roles of intermediate-size non-coding RNAs in Arabidopsis

Project description:Recent advances in genome-wide techniques allowed the identification of thousands of non-coding RNAs with various sizes in eukaryotes, some of which have further been shown to serve important functions in many biological processes. However, in model plant Arabidopsis, novel intermediate-sized ncRNAs (im-ncRNAs) (50~300nt) have very limited information. By using a modified isolation strategy combined with deep-sequencing technology, we identified 838 im-ncRNAs in Arabidopsis globally. More than half (58%) are new ncRNA species, mostly evolutionary divergent. Interestingly, annotated protein-coding genes with 5’-UTR derived novel im-ncRNAs tend to be highly expressed. For intergenic im-ncRNAs, their average abundances were comparable to mRNAs in seedlings, but subsets exhibited significantly lower expression in senescing leaves. Further, intergenic im-ncRNAs were regulated by similar genetic and epigenetic mechanisms as those of protein-coding genes, and some showed developmentally-regulated expression patterns. Large-scale reverse genetic screening showed that the down-regulation of a number of im-ncRNAs resulted in either obvious molecular changes or abnormal developmental phenotypes in vivo, indicating the functional importance of im-ncRNAs in plant growth and development. Together, our results demonstrate that novel Arabidopsis im-ncRNAs are developmentally-regulated and functional components discovered in the transcriptome.

Unexpected diversity of chloroplast non-coding RNAs as revealed by deep sequencing of the Arabidopsis transcriptome

Project description:Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are widely expressed in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Eukaryotic ncRNAs are commonly small (18-25 nt) micro- and small interfering RNAs involved in post-transcriptional gene silencing, while prokaryotic ncRNAs vary in size and are involved in various aspects of gene regulation. Given the prokaryotic origin of organelles, the presence of ncRNAs might be expected, however, the full spectrum of organellar ncRNAs has not been determined systematically. Here, strand-specific RNA-Seq analysis was used to identify 107 candidate ncRNAs from Arabidopsis thaliana chloroplasts, primarily encoded opposite protein- coding and tRNA genes. Forty-eight ncRNAs were shown to accumulate by RNA gel blot as discrete transcripts in wild-type (WT) plants and/or the pnp1-1 mutant, which lacks the chloroplast ribonuclease polynucleotide phosphorylase (cpPNPase). Ninety-eight percent of the ncRNAs detected by RNA gel blot had different transcript patterns between WT and pnp1-1, suggesting cpPNPase has a significant role in chloroplast ncRNA biogenesis and accumulation. Analysis of materials deficient for other major chloroplast ribonucleases, RNase R, RNase E and RNase J, showed differential effects on ncRNA accumulation and/or form, suggesting specificity in RNase-ncRNA interactions. 5' end mapping showed that some ncRNAs are transcribed from dedicated promoters, while others result from transcriptional read-through. Finally, correlations between accumulation of some ncRNAs and the symmetrically-transcribed sense RNA are consistent with a role in RNA stability. Overall, our data suggest that this extensive population of ncRNAs has the potential to underpin a previously underappreciated regulatory mode in the chloroplast.

Expression of 50-500nt ncRNAs in silkworm Bombyx mori during two developmental transitions

Project description:We have performed the first systematic identification and analysis of intermediate size ncRNAs (50-500 nt) in the silkworm genome. We identified 194 novel ncRNAs, the expression profiles of them during the transitions from the egg to the first instar larva and from the fifth instar larva to the pupa were anlyzed by dual-channel microarray. Results showed that 12 ncRNAs had significantly differential expression during the two developmental transitions.

Mediator is essential for small nuclear and nucleolar RNA transcription in yeast

Project description:Eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes mRNA genes and non-protein coding RNAs (ncRNAs) including small nuclear and nucleolar RNAs (sn/snoRNAs). In metazoans, RNAPII transcription of sn/snoRNAs is facilitated by a number of specialized complexes, but no such complexes have been discovered in yeast. It has been proposed that yeast sn/snoRNA promoters use the same factors as mRNA promoters, but the extent to which regulators of mRNA genes function at yeast sn/snoRNA genes is unclear. Here, we investigated a potential role for the Mediator complex, essential for mRNA gene transcription, in the transcription of sn/snoRNA genes. We found that the Mediator maps to most sn/snoRNA gene regulatory regions and that rapid depletion of the essential structural subunit Med14 strongly reduces RNAPII and TFIIB occupancy as well as nascent transcription of sn/snoRNA genes. Deletion of Med3 and Med15, subunits of the activator-interacting Mediator tail module, does not affect Mediator recruitment to or RNAPII and TFIIB occupancy of sn/snoRNA genes. Our analyses suggest that Mediator promotes PIC formation and transcription at sn/snoRNA genes, expanding the role of this critical regulator beyond its known functions in mRNA gene transcription and demonstrating further mechanistic similarity between the transcription of mRNA and sn/snoRNA genes.

Small RNA sequencing of human prostate cancer samples

Project description:We sequenced the small RNA transcriptome of prostate cancer at different stages and generated a quantified catalogue of 3927 small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) detected in normal and malignant prostate tissue. From these sncRNAs less than half are microRNAs. The remaining sncRNAs represent stable sncRNAs species that originate from snoRNA, tRNA and other sncRNAs.

Annotation of snoRNA abundance across human tissues reveals complex snoRNA-host gene relationships

Project description:Background: Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are mid-size non-coding RNAs required for ribosomal RNA modification, implying a ubiquitous tissue distribution linked to ribosome synthesis. However, increasing numbers of studies identify extra-ribosomal roles of snoRNAs in modulating gene expression, suggesting more complex snoRNA abundance patterns. Therefore, there is a great need for mapping the snoRNome in different human tissues as the blueprint for snoRNA functions. Results: We used a low structure bias RNA-Seq approach to accurately quantify snoRNAs and compare them to the entire transcriptome in seven healthy human tissues (breast, ovary, prostate, testis, skeletal muscle, liver and brain). We identify 475 expressed snoRNAs categorized in two abundance classes that differ significantly in their function, conservation level and correlation with their host gene: 390 snoRNAs are uniformly expressed and 85 are enriched in the brain or reproductive tissues. Most tissue-enriched snoRNAs are embedded in lncRNAs and display strong correlation of abundance with them, whereas uniformly expressed snoRNAs are mostly embedded in protein-coding host genes and are mainly non- or anticorrelated with them. 59% of the non-correlated or anticorrelated protein-coding host gene/snoRNA pairs feature dual-initiation promoters, compared to only 16% of the correlated non-coding host gene/snoRNA pairs. Conclusions: Our results demonstrate that snoRNAs are not a single homogeneous group of housekeeping genes but include highly regulated tissue-enriched RNAs. Indeed, our work indicates that the architecture of snoRNA host genes varies to uncouple the host and snoRNA expressions in order to meet the different snoRNA abundance levels and functional needs of human tissues.
