Argonaute-bound small RNAs from promoter-proximal RNA Polymerase II

ABSTRACT: Argonaute (Ago) proteins mediate post-transcriptional gene repression by binding guide microRNAs (miRNAs) to regulate targeted RNAs. To confidently assess Agobound small RNAs, we adapted a mouse embryonic stem cell system to express a single inducible epitope-tagged Ago protein. Here, we report the small RNA profile of Agodeficient cells and determine Ago-dependent stability is a common feature of mammalian miRNAs. Considering both in vivo Ago-dependence for stability and Ago2 binding as defined by immunopurification, we have identified a novel class of non-canonical miRNAs derived from protein-coding gene promoters, which we name transcriptional start site miRNAs (TSS-miRNAs). A subset of promoter-proximal RNA polymerase II complexes produce hairpin RNAs that are processed in a DGCR8/Drosha-independent, but Dicer-dependent manner. TSS-miRNA activity is detectable endogenously, upon transfection of a mimic or by mRNA overexpression. Finally, we present evidence of differential expression and conservation in humans, suggesting important roles in gene regulation.

Genome wide identification of targets of the drosha-pasha/DGCR8 complex

Project description:Drosha is a type III RNAse, which plays a critical role in miRNA biogenesis. Drosha and its double-stranded RNA-binding partner protein Pasha/DGCR8 likely recognize and cleave miRNA precursor RNAs or pri-miRNA hairpins co-transcriptionally. To identify RNAs processed by Drosha, we used tiling microarrays to examine transcripts after depletion of drosha mRNA with dsRNA in Drosophila Schneider S2 cells. This strategy identified 137 Drosha-regulated RNAs, including 11 putative pri-miRNAs comprising 15 annotated miRNAs. Most of the identified pri-miRNAs seem extremely large, >10 kilobases as revealed by both the Drosha knock down strategy and by RNA PolII chromatin IP followed by Drosophila tiling microarrays. Surprisingly, more than a hundred additional RNAs not annotated as miRNAs are under Drosha control and are likely to be direct targets of Drosha action. This is because many of them encode annotated genes, and unlike bona fide pri-miRNAs, they are not affected by depletion of the miRNA processing factor, dicer-1. Moreover, application of the evofold analysis software indicates that at least 25 of the Drosha-regulated RNAs contain evolutionarily conserved hairpins similar to those recognized by the Drosha-Pasha/DGCR8 complex in pri-miRNAs. One of these hairpins is located in the 5′ UTR of both pasha and mammalian DGCR8. These observations suggest that a negative feedback loop acting on pasha mRNA may regulate the miRNA-biogenesis pathway: i.e., excess Drosha cleaves pasha/DGCR8 primary transcripts and leads to a reduction in pasha/DGCR8 mRNA levels and Pasha/DGCR8 synthesis.

ChIP-Seq of human endogenous small RNAs associated to Argonaute 1 and 2

Project description:Small non-coding RNAs function in concert with Argonaute (Ago) proteins to regulate gene expression at the level of transcription, mRNA stability or translation. Ago proteins bind small RNAs and form the core of silencing complexes. Here we report the analysis of small RNAs associated with human Ago1 and Ago2 revealed by immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing. Among the reads we find small RNAs originating from the small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) ACA45. Moreover, processing of ACA45 requires Dicer activity but is independent of Drosha/DGCR8. Using bio-informatic prediction algorithms and luciferase reporter assays, we uncover the mediator subunit CDC2L6 as one potential mRNA target of ACA45 small RNAs suggesting a role for ACA45 processing products in post-transcriptional gene silencing. We further identify a number of human snoRNAs with microRNA (miRNA)- like processing signatures. We have therefore identified a novel class of small RNAs in human cells that originate from snoRNAs and can function like miRNAs. Two samples examined. Small RNAs associated to human Argonaute 1 and human Argonaute 2

DGCR8 acts as a novel adaptor for the exosome complex to degrade double-stranded structured RNAs

Project description:The Microprocessor complex (DGCR8/Drosha) is required for microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis but also binds and regulates the stability of several types of cellular RNAs. Of particular interest, DGCR8 controls the stability of mature small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) transcripts independently of Drosha, suggesting the existence of alternative DGCR8 complex/es with other nucleases to process a variety of cellular RNAs. Here, we found that DGCR8 co-purifies with subunits of the nuclear exosome, preferentially associating with its hRRP6-containing nucleolar form. Importantly, we demonstrate that DGCR8 is essential for the recruitment of the exosome to snoRNAs and to human telomerase RNA. In addition, we show that the DGCR8/exosome complex controls the stability of the human telomerase RNA component (hTR/TERC). Altogether, these data suggests that DGCR8 acts as a novel adaptor to recruit the exosome complex to structured RNAs and induce their degradation.

DGCR8 HITS-CLIP reveals novel functions for the Microprocessor (CLIP-seq)

Project description:The Drosha-DGCR8 complex (Microprocessor) is required for microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. DGCR8 contains two double-stranded RNA binding motifs that recognize the RNA substrate, whereas Drosha functions as the endonuclease. We have used high-throughput sequencing of RNAs isolated by crosslinking immunoprecipitation (HITS-CLIP) to identify endogenous RNA targets of DGCR8 in mammalian cells. Unexpectedly, miRNAs were not the most abundant targets. DGCR8-bound RNAs comprised several hundred mRNAs as well as snoRNAs and long non-coding RNAs. We found that DGCR8 together with Drosha controls the abundance of several mRNAs, as well as long non-coding RNAs, such as MALAT-1. By contrast, the DGCR8-mediated cleavage of snoRNAs is independent of Drosha, suggesting the involvement of DGCR8 in cellular complexes with other endonucleases. Interestingly, binding of DGCR8 to cassette exons, acts as a novel mechanism to regulate the relative abundance of alternatively spliced isoforms. Collectively, these data provide new insights in the complex role of DGCR8 in controlling the fate of several classes of RNAs.

Sequencing of Argonaute-bound miRNA/mRNA hybrids reveals regulation of the unfolded protein response by microRNA-320a

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNA) are short non-coding RNAs widely implicated in development, gene regulation, and disease progression. Most miRNAs utilize the RNase III enzymes Drosha and Dicer for biogenesis in animals. One notable exception is the RNA polymerase II transcription start sites (TSS) miRNAs whose biogenesis requires Dicer but not Drosha. The functional importance of the TSS-miRNA biogenesis pathway has remained uncertain due to their unelucidated targetomes. To better understand the function of TSS-miRNAs, we applied a modified Crosslinking, Ligation, and Sequencing of Hybrids on Argonaute (Ago-qCLASH) to identify the targets for TSS-miRNAs in HCT116 colorectal cancer cells with or without Drosha knockout (KO). We observed that miR-320a hybrids dominate in TSS-miRNA hybrids identified by Ago-qCLASH. Targets for miR-320a are enriched in the eIF2 signaling pathway, a downstream component of the unfolded protein response. Consistently, in miR-320a mimic- and inhibitor- transfected cells, differentially expressed genes are enriched in the eIF2 signaling pathway. Within the Ago-qCLASH data, we identified the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) chaperone Calnexin as a direct miR-320a target, thus connecting miR-320a to the unfolded protein response. During ER stress, but not amino acid deprivation, miR-320a up-regulates ATF4, a critical transcription factor for resolving ER stress. Our study helps to elucidate the targetome of the TSS-miRNAs in colorectal cancer cells and establishes miR-320a as a regulator of unfolded protein response.

Super-enhancer-mediated RNA processing revealed by integrative microRNA network analysis [SmallRNA-seq]

Project description:Super-enhancers are an emerging sub-class of regulatory regions controlling cell identity and disease genes. However, their biological function and impact on miRNA networks are unclear. Here we report that super-enhancers drive the biogenesis of master miRNAs crucial for cell identity by enhancing both transcription and Drosha/DGCR8-mediated primary miRNA processing. Super-enhancers, together with broad H3K4me3 domains, shape a tissue-specific and evolutionarily conserved atlas of miRNA expression and function. CRISPR/Cas9 genomics revealed that super-enhancer constituents act cooperatively and facilitate Drosha/DGCR8 recruitment and pri-miRNA processing to boost cell-specific miRNA production. BET-bromodomain inhibitor JQ1 preferentially inhibited super-enhancer-directed cotranscriptional pri-miRNA processing. Furthermore, super-enhancers are characterized by pervasive interaction with DGCR8/Drosha and DGCR8/Drosha-regulated mRNA stability control, suggesting unique RNA regulation at super-enhancers. Finally, super-enhancers mark multiple miRNAs associated with cancer hallmark traits. This study presents a principle underlying miRNA biology in health and disease and a unrecognized higher-order property of super-enhancers in RNA processing beyond transcription.
