The Transition from Primary siRNAs to Amplified Secondary siRNAs that Regulate Chalcone Synthase During Development of Glycine max Seed Coat

ABSTRACT: The I locus is a 27-kb inverted repeat cluster of chalcone synthase genes CHS1-3-4 that mediates siRNA down-regulation of CHS7 and CHS8 target mRNAs during seed development leading to yellow seed coats lacking anthocyanin pigments. Here, we report small RNA sequencing of ten stages of seed development from a few days post fertilization through maturity, revealing the amplification from primary to secondary short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) occurring during development. The young seed populations had a higher proportion of siRNAs representing the CHS1-3-4 gene family members, consistent with this region as the origin of the primary siRNAs. More intriguingly, the very young seed had a higher proportion of 22-nt CHS siRNAs than did the mid-maturation seed. We infer that the primary CHS siRNAs increase during development to levels sufficient to trigger amplification of secondary CHS siRNAs from the CHS7/8 target mRNAs, enabling the total levels of 21-nt CHS siRNAs to rise dramatically. Further, we demonstrate that the soybean system exhibits tissue-specific CHS siRNA production because primary CHS siRNA levels are not sufficient to trigger secondary amplification in tissues other than the seed coat.

High-throughput sequencing using Genome Analyzer II and Illumina HiSeq 2000 was performed with two biological replicates (Some stages don't have replicate).

Tissue specific expression of chalcone synthase siRNAs

Project description:In a previous study, seed coat and cotyledon tissues of Williams, Richland and T157 soybean lines were investigated to show tissue specificity of CHS siRNA expression (Tuteja et al., 2009). Here, we investigated more tissues such as leaf, root and germinating cotyledon to ascertain the tissue specificity of CHS siRNAs in Williams. Data from multiple small RNA libraries were sequenced deeply by the Illumina high-throughput sequencing technology. The total numbers of small RNA reads were from three million to thirty million, providing sufficient data to show the tissue specificity of CHS siRNA.

Plant 22-nt siRNAs mediate translational repression and stress adaptation

Project description:Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are critical for proper development and immunity in eukaryotes1. Plants produce siRNAs with lengths of 21-, 22-, or 24- nucleotides (nt), wherein the 21- and 24-nt siRNAs mediate mRNA cleavage and DNA methylation2,3, respectively. However, the biological functions of 22-nt siRNAs remain elusive. Here we report the identification and characterization of a group of endogenous 22-nt siRNAs generated from the action of DICER-LIKE 2 (DCL2). When cytoplasmic RNA decay and DCL4 are deficient, the massive accumulation of 22-nt siRNAs causes pleiotropic growth disorders, including severe dwarfism, meristem defect, and pigmentation. Notably, two genes that encode nitrate reductases, NIA1 and NIA2, produce nearly half of the total of 22-nt siRNAs. Production of 22-nt siRNA triggers explosive self-amplification that leads to a small RNA storm, and induces dramatic translational repression both gene-specifically and globally. 22-nt siRNAs are also found to preferentially accumulate upon nitrogen deficiency, which acts to restrain plant growth and promote stress responses. Thus, our research uncovers the unique properties of 22-nt siRNAs, a previously unexplored class of plant siRNAs, and highlights the length of small RNA as a major functional determinant.

High-pressure sprayed siRNAs influence the efficiency but not the profile of transitive silencing

Project description:In plants, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are a quintessential class of RNA interference (RNAi)-inducing molecules produced by the endonucleolytic cleavage of double stranded RNAs (dsRNAs). In order to ensure robust RNAi, siRNAs are amplified through a positive feedback mechanism called transitivity. Transitivity relies on RNA-DIRECTED-RNA POLYMERASE 6 (RDR6)-mediated dsRNA synthesis using siRNA-targeted RNA. The newly synthesized dsRNA is subsequently cleaved into secondary siRNAs by DICER-LIKE (DCL) endonucleases. Just like primary siRNAs, secondary siRNAs are also loaded into ARGONAUTE proteins (AGOs) to form an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) reinforcing the cleavage of the target RNA. Although the molecular players underlying transitivity are well established, the mode of action of transitivity remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the influence of primary target sites on transgene silencing and transitivity using the GFP-expressing Nicotiana benthamiana 16C line, high pressure spraying protocol (HPSP), and synthetic 22-nucleotide (nt) long siRNAs. We found that the 22-nt siRNA targeting the 3’ of the GFP transgene was less efficient in inducing silencing when compared to the siRNAs targeting the 5’ and middle region of the GFP. Moreover, sRNA sequencing of locally silenced leaves showed that the amount but not the profile of secondary RNAs is shaped by the occupancy of the primary siRNA triggers on the target RNA. Our findings suggest that RDR6-mediated dsRNA synthesis is not primed by primary siRNAs and that dsRNA synthesis appears to be generally initiated at the 3’ end of the target RNA.
