Comprehensive Analysis of Nucleocytoplasmic Dynamics of mRNA in Drosophila cells

ABSTRACT: Eukaryotic mRNAs undergo a cycle of transcription, nuclear export, and degradation. A major challenge is to obtain a global, quantitative view of these processes. Here we measured the genome-wide nucleocytoplasmic dynamics of mRNA in Drosophila cells by metabolic labeling in combination with cellular fractionation. By mathematical modeling of these data we determined rates of transcription, export and cytoplasmic decay for >5,000 genes. We characterized these kinetic rates and investigated links with mRNA features, RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and chromatin states. We found prominent correlations between mRNA decay rate and transcript size, while nuclear export rates are linked to the size of the 3'UTR. Transcription, export and decay rates are each associated with distinct spectra of RBPs. Specific classes of genes, such as those encoding cytoplasmic ribosomal proteins, exhibit characteristic combinations of rate constants, suggesting modular control. Overall, transcription and decay rates have a major impact on transcript abundance, while nuclear export is of minor importance. Finally, correlations between rate constants suggest global coordination between the three processes. Our approach should be generally applicable to other cell systems and provides insights into the genome-wide nucleocytoplasmic kinetics of mRNA.

Quantification of subcellular mRNA kinetics in mouse embryonic stem cells (flavopiridol)

Project description:In this work, we quantified mRNA flow rates between subcellular compartments in mouse embryonic stem cells. Combining metabolic RNA labeling, biochemical cell fractionation and RNA sequencing with mathematical modeling we were able to determine the kinetic rates of nuclear pre-, nuclear mature, cytosolic and membrane mRNA derived from more than 9000 protein-coding genes. For more than 5000 genes, we additionally estimated the transcript elongation rate. For most of the transcripts, mature nuclear half-lives are the longest, suggesting nuclear retention to be the rate-limiting step in the mRNA life cycle. Genes encoding transcription factors and immediate early genes possess fast kinetic rates, specifically a short nuclear half-life. Differentially localized mRNAs exhibit distinct combinations of rate constants, suggesting modular control within subcellular compartments. We show that membrane stability is high for membrane-localized mRNA and that cytosolic stability is high for cytosol-localized mRNA. Genes encoding target signals, such as signal peptides or transmembrane domains, have low cytosolic and high membrane half-lives with only slight differences between target signals. Nuclear-encoded mitochondrial proteins show long nuclear mature half-lives and otherwise similar features of cytoplasmic kinetics that do not resemble co-translational targeting to the mitochondria.

Nuclear export is a limiting factor in eukaryotic mRNA metabolism

Project description:The eukaryotic mRNA life cycle includes transcription, nuclear mRNA export and degradation. To quantify all these processes simultaneously, we perform thiol-linked alkylation after metabolic labeling of RNA with 4-thiouridine (4sU), followed by sequencing of RNA (SLAM-seq) in the nuclear and cytosolic compartments. We develop a model that reliably quantifies mRNA synthesis, nuclear export, and nuclear and cytosolic degradation rates on a genome-wide scale. We find that nuclear degradation of polyadenylated mRNA is negligible and nuclear mRNA export is slow, while cytosolic mRNA degradation is comparatively fast. Consequently, an mRNA molecule generally spends most of its life in the nucleus. We also observe large differences in the nuclear export rates of different 3’UTR transcript isoforms. Furthermore, we identify genes whose expression is abruptly induced upon metabolic labeling. These transcripts are exported substantially faster than average mRNAs, suggesting the existence of alternative export pathways. Our results highlight nuclear mRNA export as a limiting factor in mRNA metabolism and gene regulation.

mRNA deadenylation modeling at permissive and stress conditions reveals complex relations to decay

Project description:The prevailing model postulates that complete cytoplasmic polyadenosine tail (pA-tail) deadenylation is essential for initiating mRNA decapping and subsequent degradation. To investigate this, we conducted direct RNA sequencing of yeast mRNAs derived from steady-state and stress condition chase experiments. Subsequently, we developed a numerical model based on a modified gamma distribution function, which estimated the transcriptomic deadenylation rate at 10 A/min. A simplified independent method, based on the delineation of quantile pA-tail values, showed a correlation between the decay and deadenylation rates of individual mRNA, which appeared consistent within functional transcript groups and associated with to codon optimality. Notably, these rates varied during the stress response. Detailed analysis of ribosomal protein-coding mRNAs (RPG mRNAs), constituting 40 % of the transcriptome, singled out this transcript group. While RPG mRNA deadenylation and decay accelerated under heat stress, their degradation could proceed even when deadenylation was blocked, depending entirely on ongoing nuclear export. Our findings support the general primary function of deadenylation in dictating decapping onset, while also demonstrating complex relations between these processes.

Heritable variation of mRNA decay rates in yeast

Project description:Gene expression levels are determined by the balance between rates of mRNA transcription and decay, and genetic variation in either of these processes can result in heritable differences in transcript abundance. Although the genetics of gene expression has been the subject of intense interest, the contribution of heritable variation in mRNA decay rates to gene expression variation has received far less attention. To this end, we developed a novel statistical framework and measured allele-specific differences in mRNA decay rates in a diploid yeast hybrid created by mating two genetically diverse parental strains. In total, we estimate that 31% of genes exhibit allelic differences in mRNA decay rate, of which 350 can be identified at a false discovery rate of 10%. Genes with significant allele-specific differences in mRNA decay rate have higher levels of polymorphism compared to other genes, with all gene regions contributing to allelic differences in mRNA decay rate. Strikingly, we find widespread evidence for compensatory evolution, such that variants influencing transcriptional initiation and decay having opposite effects, suggesting steady-state gene expression levels are subject to pervasive stabilizing selection. Our results demonstrate that heritable differences in mRNA decay rates are widespread, and are an important target for natural selection to maintain or fine-tune steady-state gene expression levels.

Nucleocytoplasmic mRNA redistribution in ALS motor neurons and is reversed by VCP ATPase inhibition

Project description:Although the pathological hallmark of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the nucleocytoplasmic mislocalisation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs), such as TDP-43 and FUS, the nucleocytoplasmic distribution of mRNA remains uncharacterised. Here, we used subcellular fractionation with RNA sequencing to assess nucleocytoplasmic mRNA localisation in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived motor neurons (iPSNs) from ALS patients with TARDBP mutations, VCP mutations, and controls with VCP mutations isogenically knocked in with CRISPR/Cas9. In each mutant group, we found substantial nucleocytoplasmic mRNA redistribution, particularly in transcripts involved in protein binding. Redistributed transcripts in ALS iPSNs were enriched in protein-coding biotypes, exhibited longer lengths, and had enhanced interactions with RBPs, including TDP-43 and FUS. Treatment with the VCP D2 ATPase domain inhibitor ML240 partially restored nucleocytoplasmic mRNA redistribution not only in VCP mutants but also in TARDBP mutant iPSNs.

Phosphorylation of PABPN1 during mitosis protects mRNA from hyperadenylation and maintains transcriptome stability.

Project description:Polyadenylation controls mRNA biogenesis, nuclear export, translation, and decay. These processes are interdependent and coordinately regulated by several poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPs). How PABPs are functionally regulated to control RNA fate is not fully understood. Here, we show that human PABPN1, the nuclear PABP, is phosphorylated by mitotic kinases at four specific sites during mitosis when nucleoplasm and cytoplasm mix. We employed long-read sequencing to detect altered activities of PABPN1 mutants on poly(A) tails lengths of individual mRNAs and TimeLapse-seq to monitor mRNA turnover rates. Phospho-inhibitory PABPN1 mutants lengthened poly(A) tails on both spliced and unspliced transcripts, increased mRNA half-lives and decreased synthesis, and blocked cell proliferation. Although phospho-mimetic PABPN1 mutants still bind RNA, poly(A) tails were shorter in vivo. Thus, PABPN1 phosphorylation reduces the polyadenylation activity of PABPN1 and increases mRNA instability. We conclude that PABPN1 regulation balances mRNA synthesis and decay during cell cycle to achieve transcriptome homeostasis.

Identifying cellular RNA-binding proteins during infection uncovers a role for MKRN2 in influenza mRNA trafficking.

Project description:Utilisation of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) is an important aspect of post-transcriptional regulation of viral RNA. Viruses such as influenza A viruses (IAV) interact with RBPs to regulate processes including splicing, nuclear export and trafficking, while also encoding RBPs within their genomes, such as NP and NS1. But with almost 1000 RBPs encoded within the human genome it is still unclear what role, if any, many of these proteins play during viral replication. Using the RNA interactome capture (RIC) technique, we isolated RBPs from IAV infected cells to unravel the RBPome of mRNAs from IAV infected human cells. This led to the identification of one particular RBP, MKRN2, that associates with and positively regulates IAV mRNA. Through further validation, we determined that MKRN2 is involved in the nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking of IAV mRNA likely through an association with the RNA export mediator GLE1. In the absence of MKRN2, IAV mRNAs accumulate in the nucleus of infected cells, which we suspect leads to their degradation by the nuclear RNA exosome complex. MKRN2, therefore, appears to be required for the efficient nuclear export of IAV mRNAs in human cells.

RNA-controlled nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of mRNA decay factors regulates mRNA synthesis and a novel mRNA decay pathway

Project description:mRNA level is controlled by factors that mediate both mRNA synthesis and decay, including the 5’ to 3’ exonuclease Xrn1 - a major mRNA synthesis and decay factor. Here we show that nucleocytoplasmic shuttling of several mRNA decay factors plays a key role in determining both mRNA synthesis and decay. Shuttling is regulated by RNA-controlled binding of the karyopherin Kap120 to two nuclear localization sequences (NLSs) in Xrn1, location of one of which is conserved from yeast to human. The decaying RNA binds and masks NLS1, establishing a link between mRNA decay and Xrn1 shuttling. Preventing Xrn1 import, either by deleting KAP120 or mutating the two Xrn1 NLSs, compromise transcription and, unexpectedly, also the cytoplasmic decay, uncovering a cytoplasmic decay pathway that initiates in the nucleus. Most mRNAs are degraded by both the “classical” and the novel pathways, the ratio between them represents a full spectrum. Importantly, Xrn1 shuttling is required for proper adaptation to environmental changes, in particular to ever changing environmental fluctuations.

The RNA exosome adaptor protein ZFC3H1 functionally competes with nuclear export activity to retain target transcripts

Project description:Mammalian genomes are promiscuously transcribed, yielding protein-coding and non-coding products. Many transcripts are short-lived due to their nuclear degradation by the ribonucleolytic RNA exosome. Here, we show that abolished nuclear exosome function causes the formation of distinct nuclear foci, containing polyadenylated (pA+) RNA secluded from nucleocytoplasmic export. We asked whether exosome co-factors could serve such nuclear retention. Co-localization studies revealed the enrichment of pA+ RNA foci with ‘pA-tail exosome targeting (PAXT) connection’ components MTR4, ZFC3H1 and PABPN1, but no overlap with known nuclear structures, such as Cajal bodies, speckles, paraspeckles or nucleoli. Interestingly, ZFC3H1 is required for foci formation, and in its absence selected pA+ RNAs, including coding and non-coding transcripts, are exported to the cytoplasm in a process dependent on the mRNA export factor AlyREF. Our results establish ZFC3H1 as a central nuclear RNA retention factor, counteracting nuclear export activity.
