Mapping of internal monophosphate 5’ ends of Bacillus subtilis messenger RNAs and ribosomal RNAs in wild-type and ribonuclease-mutant strains

ABSTRACT: The narrow-specificity endoribonuclease RNase III and the 5’ exonuclease RNase J1 have been recently found to be not essential in the Gram-positive model organism, Bacillus subtilis. In this study, we performed a global analysis of internal 5’ ends that are generated or acted upon by these enzymes. An RNA-Seq protocol known as PARE (Parallel Analysis of RNA Ends) was used to capture 5’ monophosphorylated RNA ends in ribonuclease wild-type and mutant strains. Comparison of PARE peaks in strains with RNase III present or absent showed that, in addition to its well-known role in ribosomal (rRNA) processing, many coding sequences and intergenic regions were direct targets of RNase III. A set of regular RNA-seq experiments were performed to investigate RNA profiles in these strains and used to account for the changes in RNA abundance indirectly caused by the loss of RNase III in PARE. The PARE analysis also revealed an accumulation of 3’-proximal peaks that correlated with the absence of RNase J1, confirming the importance of RNase J1 in degrading RNA fragments that contain the transcription terminator structure. In addition, an endonuclease cleavage just two nucleotides downstream of the 16S rRNA 3’ end was discovered with PARE analysis. This latter observation begins to answer, at least for B. subtilis, a long-standing question on the exonucleolytic vs. endonucleolytic nature of 16S rRNA maturation

RNA-seq of Bacillus subtilis wild type and RNase J1 null strains

Project description:RNase J1 is the first nuclease with 5-3 exonuclease activity in bacteria and plays an important role in the maturation and degradation of mRNA. Absence of RNase J1 in cells has effect on cell morphology and growth rate. We did RNA-seq of Bacillus subtilis wild type and RNase J1 null strains (triplicates) to obtain more information about cellular role of this nuclease in cells. Complmentary ChIP-seq data have also been deposited in ArrayExpress under accession number E-MTAB-5659 ( https://www.ebi.ac.uk/arrayexpress/experiments/E-MTAB-5659 ).

Hierarchical RNA processing is rate limiting for mitochondrial ribosome assembly

Project description:In animals the organization of the compact mitochondrial genome and lack of introns have necessitated a unique mechanism for RNA processing. To date the regulation of mitochondrial RNA processing and its importance for ribosome biogenesis and energy metabolism are not clear. To understand the in vivo role of the endoribonuclease component of the RNase P complex, MRPP3, we created conditional knockout mice. Here we show that MRPP3 is essential for life, and heart and skeletal muscle-specific knockout leads to a cardiomyopathy early in life, indicating that it is the only RNase P enzyme in mitochondria. We show that RNA processing is required for the biogenesis of the respiratory chain and mitochondrial function. Transcriptome-wide parallel analyses of RNA ends (PARE) and RNA-Seq enabled us to identify the in vivo cleavage sites of RNase P. Cleavage of the 5â² tRNA ends precedes 3â² end processing in vivo and is required for the correct biogenesis of the mitochondrial ribosomal subunits and mitoribosomal proteins that are differentially stabilized or degraded in the absence of mature rRNAs. Finally we identify that large mitoribosomal proteins can form a subcomplex on a precursor mt-RNA containing the 16S rRNA indicating that mitoribosomal biogenesis proceeds co-transcriptionally. Taken together our data show that RNA processing links transcription to translation via assembly of the mitoribosome. Total RNA was isolated from heart tissue from 11 week old control (Mrpp3loxP/loxP) and Mrpp3 knockout mice (Mrpp3loxP/loxP, +/Ckmm), TruSeq libraries produced in triplicate, sequenced and analysed for differential expression. Mitochondrial RNA was isolated from heart tissue from 11 week old control (Mrpp3loxP/loxP) and Mrpp3 knockout mice (Mrpp3loxP/loxP, +/Ckmm), PARE libraries produced in triplicate and sequenced for analysis of mitochondrial RNA processing.

Analysis of mRNA decay intermediates in Bacillus subtilis 3' exoribonuclease and RNA helicase mutant strains

Project description:The Bacillus subtilis genome encodes four 3’ exoribonucleases: polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), RNase R, RNase PH, and YhaM. Previous work showed that PNPase, encoded by the pnpA gene, is the major 3’ exonuclease involved in mRNA turnover; in a pnpA deletion strain, numerous mRNA decay intermediates accumulate. Whether B. subtilis mRNA decay occurs in the context of a degradosome complex is controversial. In this study, global mapping of mRNA decay intermediate 3’ ends within coding sequences was performed in strains that were either deleted for, or had an inactivating point mutation in, the pnpA gene. The pattern of 3’ end accumulation in these strains was highly similar, suggesting that mRNA decay was not occurring in the context of a degradosome, whose structure would be affected by the absence of PNPase. A comparison with mapped 3’ ends in a strain lacking CshA, the major RNA helicase, indicated that different mRNAs may require both PNPase and CshA for efficient decay. RNA-seq analysis of strains lacking RNase R suggested that this enzyme did not play a major role in mRNA turnover in the wild-type strain. Strains were constructed that contained only one of the four known 3’ exoribonucleases. When RNase R was the only 3’ exonuclease present, it was able to degrade a model mRNA efficiently, showing processive decay even through a strong stem-loop structure that inhibits PNPase processivity. Strains containing only RNase PH or only YhaM were also insensitive to this RNA secondary structure, suggesting the existence of another, as-yet unidentified, 3’ exoribonuclease.

Annotation of the genes responsible for helix 69 rRNA modifications in 23S of Bacillus subtilis.

Project description:A total of 25 modifications were mapped to 16S and 23S RNA in B. subtilis ribosome, however most of the genes responsible for these modification sites remain unknown. In this work, bottom-up oligonucleotide LC-MS/MS was used to detect rRNA modifications in five single gene knock-out strains: yydA, yhcT, yjbO, ylyB, yqxC. By comparing oligonucleotide modification states between the background 168 strain (annotated as WT) and the mutants: ylyB was confirmed to be a pseudouridine synthase at positions 1940, 1944, 1946 of 23S; yydA is a N3-pseudouridine methyltransferase at 1944 of 23S; and yqxC is a dual 2’O-cytidine methyltransferase at 1417 of 16S and 1949 of 23S. Deletion of yhcT or yjbO does not change rRNA modification pattern.

Function of three homologs of RNase III in Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002

Project description:RNase III is a ribonucleases that recognizes and cleaves double-stranded RNA. RNase III has been known be involved in rRNA processing, but has many additional roles controlling both expression and RNA turnover of specific messages. Many organisms have just one RNase III while some have both a full length RNase III and a mini-III that lacks the double-stranded RNA binding domain. The cyanobacteria Synechococcus sp. PCC 7002 has three homologs of RNase III that are unessential even when deleted in combination. We were interested what coding regions these RNase III enzymes were influencing and if they had redundant or distinct specificities. To address these questions we collected samples for RNA-sequencing from WT, the single, double, and triple RNase III mutants in triplicate. Approximately 20% of genes were differentially expressed in various mutants with some operons and regulons showing complex changes in expression levels between mutants. We describe the role of two RNase III’s in 23S rRNA maturation, and show how the third is involved in copy number regulation of one of the six plasmids (pAQ3). Purified enzymes were capable of cleaving some E. coli RNase III target sequences, highlighting the remarkably conserved substrate specificity between organisms yet complex regulation of gene expression.

Attachment of the RNA degradosome to the inner cytoplasmic membrane of Escherichia coli prevents wasteful degradation of rRNA intermediates in ribosome assembly.

Project description:RNase E, an essential endoribonuclease in Escherichia coli, is the key component of the multienzyme RNA degradosome, which is localized to the inner cytoplasmic membrane. Until now, the reason for membrane localization of RNase E was not known. We have analyzed ribosome assembly in the rneΔMTS strain, which expresses a cytoplasmic variant of RNase E (cRNase E) resulting in a cytoplasmic RNA degradosome. In this mutant strain, there is a mild slowdown in the rates of growth and mRNA degradation. Here we document the striking accumulation of intermediates in ribosome assembly in the rneΔMTS strain in which precursors of 16S and 23S rRNA are cleaved by cRNase E. In vitro, we show that ribosomes partially unfolded in low ionic strength buffer are cleaved by RNase E. Mapping of in vivo and in vitro cleavage sites shows that they overlap and that their consensus sequence matches previously mapped RNase E cleavage sites. In vivo, fragments of 16S and 23S rRNA as well as a precursor of 5S rRNA are degraded in a pathway involving polyadenylation and 3’ exonucleases. Since the pathway for rRNA degradation is the same as the pathway for mRNA degradation, the slowdown of mRNA degradation in the rneΔMTS strain could be due to competition by rRNA degradation. Our results strongly suggest that the RNA degradosome participates in the quality control of ribosome assembly and that localization on the inner cytoplasmic membrane protects newly synthesized intermediates from wasteful degradation. Ribosome synthesis is costly. Since growth rate correlates with ribosome synthesis rate, slow growth rate of the rneΔMTS strain is due to the degradation of a proportion of newly synthesized ribosomes. Avoiding wasteful degradation of intermediates in ribosome assembly likely explains why localization of RNase E homologues to the inner cytoplasmic membrane is conserved throughout the γ-Proteobacteria.

The previously uncharacterized YlxR (RnpM) protein modulates the activity of ribonuclease P

Project description:Even though Bacillus subtilis is one of the most studied organisms, no function has been identified for about 20% of its proteins. Among these unknown proteins are several RNA- and ribosome-binding proteins suggesting that they exert functions in cellular information processing. In this work, we have investigated the RNA-binding protein YlxR. This protein is widely conserved in bacteria and strongly constitutively expressed in B. subtilis suggesting an important function. We have identified the RNA subunit of the essential RNase P as the binding partner of YlxR. The main activity of RNase P is the processing of 5’ ends of pre-tRNAs. In vitro processing assays demonstrated that the presence of YlxR results in reduced RNase P activity. Chemical cross-linking studies followed by in silico docking analysis and experiments with site-directed mutant proteins suggest that YlxR binds to the region of the RNase P RNA that is important for binding and cleavage of the pre-tRNA substrate. We conclude that the YlxR protein is a check protein that serves to limit RNase P activity to ensure appropriate amounts of mature tRNAs for translation. We rename the YlxR protein RnpM for RNase P modulator.
