TRNA Modification Identification and Quantification through High Throughput Sequencing

ABSTRACT: We report the identification and quantification of Watson-Crick modifications in tRNA and rRNA through the use of high throughput sequencing. We apply the recently published DM-tRNA-Seq method to generate demethylase treated and untreated 293T samples, and using computational methods we are able to flag sites using a modification index. This index allows us to generate site-resolved information about modification that we can use to identify and quantify Watson-Crick face modifications in tRNA and rRNA. With the demethylase treated samples, we are able to validate numerous nucleotide modifications from demethylase substrates, and the absence of demethylase action also serves to aid in identification. We find numerous novel modification sites in tRNA as well as striking comparisons between tissues cultures lines. Our study reports a comprehensive analysis of the tRNA modification landscape by identifying sites of modification as well as quantifying modification levels.

Chemical manipulation of m1A mediates its detection in human tRNA

Project description:N1-methyl adenosine (m1A) is a wide-spread RNA modification present in tRNA, rRNA and mRNA. m1A modification sites in tRNAs are evolutionary conserved and its formation on tRNA is catalyzed by methyltransferase TRMT61A and TRMT6 complex. m1A promotes translation initiation and elongation. Due to its positive charge under physiological conditions, m1A can notably modulate RNA structure. It also blocks Watson-Crick base pairing and causes mutation and truncation during reverse transcription. Several misincorporation-based high throughput sequencing methods have been developed to sequence m1A. In this study, we introduce a reduction-based m1A sequencing (red-m1A-seq). We report that NaBH4 reduction of m1A can improve the mutation and readthrough rates using commercially available RT enzymes to give better positive signature, while alkaline-catalyzed Dimroth rearrangement can efficiently convert m1A to m6A to provide good controls, allowing the detection of m1A with higher sensitivity and accuracy. We applied red‑m1A-seq to sequence human small RNA and we not only detected all the previously reported tRNA m1A sites, but also new m1A sites in mt-tRNAAsn-ATT and 5.8S rRNA.

Enzymatic or in vivo installation of propargyl groups in combination with click chemistry enables enrichment and detection of methyltransferase target sites in RNA

Project description:m6A is the most abundant internal modification in eukaryotic mRNA. It is introduced by METTL3-METTL14 and tunes mRNA metabolism, impacting cell differentiation and development. Precise transcriptome-wide assignment of m6A sites is of utmost importance. However, m6A does not interfere with Watson-Crick base pairing making polymerase-based detection challenging. We developed a chemical biology approach for the precise mapping of methyltransferase (MTase) target sites based on the introduction of a bioorthogonal propargyl group in vitro and in cells. We show that propargyl can be introduced enzymatically by wild-type METTL3-METTL14. Reverse transcription terminated up to 65 % at m6A sites after bioconjugation and purification, hence enabling detection of METTL3-METTL14 target sites by next generation sequencing. Importantly, we implemented metabolic propargyl labeling of RNA MTase target sites in vivo based on propargyl-L-selenohomocysteine and validated different types of known rRNA methylation sites.

Chemical modifications mark alternatively spliced and actively degrading messenger RNAs in Arabidopsis and humans

Project description:Post-transcriptional chemical modification of RNA bases is a widespread and physiologically relevant regulator of RNA maturation, stability, and function. While modifications are best characterized in short, noncoding RNAs such as transfer RNAs (tRNAs), growing evidence indicates that messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are likewise modified. Here, we apply our High-throughput Annotation of Modified Ribonucleotides (HAMR) pipeline to identify and classify modifications that affect Watson-Crick base-pairing at three different levels of the human and Arabidopsis thaliana transcriptomes (polyadenylated, small, and degrading RNAs). We find modifications primarily within actively degrading mRNAs and lncRNAs, suggesting they can act as a potent signal for RNA turnover. Additionally, modifications within stable mRNAs mark alternatively spliced introns, suggesting they regulate splicing. Furthermore, these modifications target mRNAs with coherent functions, including stress responses. Thus, our comprehensive analysis of RNA modification across multiple RNA classes yields new functional insights into these covalent RNA additions. polyA-selected RNA-seq, smRNA-seq, and polyA-selected global mapping of uncapped transcripts (GMUCT) in Arabidopsis thaliana; smRNA-seq in HEK293T and HeLa human cell lines.

Detection of internal N7-methylguanosine (m7G) RNA modifications by mutational profiling sequencing

Project description:Methylation of guanosine on position N7 (m7G) on internal RNA positions have been found in all domains of life and have been implicated in human disease, but m7G modifications has so far only been mapped in a limited number of RNA molecules. Here, we present m7G Mutational Profiling sequencing (m7G-MaP-seq), which allows high throughput detection of m7G modifications. In our method, m7G modified positions are converted to abasic sites by mild reduction, recorded as cDNA mutations through reverse transcription, sequenced and subsequently detected by identification of positions with increased mutation rates in the reduced sample compared to the control. We show that m7G-MaP-seq efficiently detects m7G modifications in rRNA, including a previously uncharacterised rRNA modification in Arabidopsis thaliana. Furthermore, we identify m7G tRNA modifications in budding yeast, human and arabidopsis tRNA and show that m7G modification occurs before tRNA splicing. We do not find any evidence for internal m7G modifications being present in other small RNA, such as miRNA, snoRNA and sRNA. Likewise, high coverage m7G-MaP-seq analysis of mRNA from E. coli or yeast cells failed to identify any internal m7G modifications.

Concerted modification of nucleotides at functional centers of the ribosome revealed by single-molecule RNA modification profiling

Project description:Nucleotides in RNA and DNA are chemically modified by numerous enzymes that alter their function. Eukaryotic ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is modified at more than 100 locations, particularly at highly conserved and functionally important nucleotides. During ribosome biogenesis, modifications are added at various stages of assembly. The existence of differently modified classes of ribosomes in normal cells is unknown because no method exists to simultaneously evaluate the modification status at all sites, within a single rRNA molecule. Using a combination of yeast genetics and nanopore direct RNA sequencing, we developed a reliable method to track the modification status of single rRNA molecules at 37 sites in 18S rRNA and 73 sites in 25S rRNA. We use our method to characterize patterns of modification heterogeneity and identify concerted modification of nucleotides found near functional centers of the ribosome. Distinct undermodified subpopulations of rRNAs accumulate upon loss of Dbp3 or Prp43 RNA helicases, suggesting overlapping roles in ribosome biogenesis. Modification profiles are surprisingly resistant to change in response to many genetic and environmental conditions that affect translation, ribosome biogenesis, and pre-mRNA splicing. The ability to capture single-molecule RNA modification profiles provides new insights into the roles of nucleotide modifications in RNA function.

The modification landscape of P. aeruginosa tRNAs

Project description:RNA modifications have a substantial impact on tRNA function. While modifications in the anticodon loop play an important role in translational fidelity, modifications in the tRNA core influence tRNA structural stability. In bacteria, tRNA modifications play important roles in the stress response and expression of virulence factors. While tRNA modifications are well characterized in a few model organisms, our knowledge of tRNA modifications in human pathogens, such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa is lacking. Here we leveraged two orthogonal approaches to build a reference landscape of tRNA modifications in E. coli, which we used to identify tRNA modifications in P. aeruginosa. We determined conservation for many modifications between the two organisms. We also identified potential sites of tRNA modification in P. aeruginosa tRNA that are not present in E. coli. One of these sites is found at the same positions as acacp3U, a modification previously identified in Vibrio cholerae. Identifying which modifications are present on different tRNAs will uncover the pathways impacted by the different tRNA modifying enzymes, some of which may play roles in determining virulence and pathogenicity.

Profiling tRNA modifications in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Project description:Diverse chemical modifications fine-tune the function and metabolism of tRNA. Although tRNA modification is universal in all kingdoms of life, profiles of modifications, their functions, and physiological roles have not been elucidated in most organisms including the human pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis. To identify physiologically important modifications, we surveyed the tRNA of Mtb, using tRNA sequencing (tRNA-seq). Reverse transcription-derived error signatures in tRNA-seq predicted the sites and presence of 9 modifications. Several chemical treatments prior to tRNA-seq expanded the number of predictable modifications. Deletion of Mtb genes encoding two modifying enzymes, TruB and MnmA, eliminated their respective tRNA modifications, validating the presence of modified sites in tRNA species.

Conserved Methyltransferase Spb1 Targets mRNAs for Regulated Modification with 2′-O-Methyl Ribose [eCLIP]

Project description:Non-coding RNAs contain dozens of chemically distinct modifications, of which only a few have been identified in mRNAs. The recent discovery that certain tRNA modifying enzymes also target mRNAs suggests the potential for many additional mRNA modifications. Here, we show that conserved tRNA 2′-O-methyltransferases Trm3, 7,13 and 44, and rRNA 2′-O-methyltransferase Spb1, interact with specific mRNA sites in yeast by crosslinking immunoprecipitation and sequencing (CLIP-seq). We developed sequencing of methylation at two prime hydroxyls (MeTH-seq) for transcriptome-wide mapping of 2′-O-methyl ribose (Nm) with single-nucleotide resolution, and discover thousands of potential Nm sites in mRNAs. Genetic analysis identified hundreds of mRNA targets for the Spb1 methyltransferase, which can target both mRNA and non-coding RNA for environmentally regulated modification. Our work identifies Nm as a prevalent mRNA modification that is likely to be conserved and provides methods to investigate its distribution and regulation.
