Project description:Drosophila Piwi-family proteins have been implicated in transposon control. Here, we examine piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) associated with each Drosophila Piwi protein and find that Piwi and Aubergine bind RNAs that are predominantly antisense to transposons, whereas Ago3 complexes contain predominantly sense piRNAs. As in mammals, the majority of Drosophila piRNAs are derived from discrete genomic loci. These loci comprise mainly defective transposon sequences, and some have previously been identified as master regulators of transposon activity. Our data suggest that heterochromatic piRNA loci interact with potentially active, euchromatic transposons to form an adaptive system for transposon control. Complementary relationships between sense and antisense piRNA populations suggest an amplification loop wherein each piRNA-directed cleavage event generates the 5’ end of a new piRNA. Thus, sense piRNAs, formed following cleavage of transposon mRNAs, may enhance production of antisense piRNAs, complementary to active elements, by directing cleavage of transcripts from master control loci. Keywords: small RNA libraries from Drosophila ovaries

Keywords: small RNA libraries from Drosophila ovaries small RNAs (23-29nt) were isolated from total ovarian RNA or from immunopreciptated Piwi/Aubergine/Ago3 complexes. cDNA libraries were constructed after Pfeffer et al. 2005 (Nat. Methods) and sequenced at 454 Life Sciences. The used strain is OregonR. Only sequences matching the Release5 genome assembly (www.fruitfly.org) are considered.

Project description:Many evolutionarily conserved miRNAs in plants regulate transcription factors with key functions in plant development. Hence, mutations in core components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery causes strong growth defects. An essential aspect of miRNA biogenesis is the precise excision of the small RNA from an arm of the fold-back precursor. Defects in the selection of the correct miRNA sequence will ultimately affect miRNA target specificity, plant development and other processes controlled by these small RNAs. Intriguingly, plant miRNA precursors are largely variable in size and shape and can be processed by different modes. Here, we optimized genomic approaches to detect processing intermediates during miRNA biogenesis. We identified and characterized an endogenous miRNA whose processing is triggered by a terminal branched loop. Plant miRNA processing can be initiated by internal bubbles, small terminal loops or branched loops followed by dsRNA segments of 15-17 bp. Interestingly, precision and efficiency vary with the processing modes suggesting intrinsic differences between miRNA biogenesis pathways. Despite the various potential structural determinants present in a single a miRNA precursor, we found that DCL1 is mostly guided by a predominant structural region in each precursor in wild-type plants. However, genomic studies of miRNA processing intermediates in fiery1, hyl1 and se mutants revealed the existence of cleavage signatures consistent with the recognition of alternative or cryptic processing determinants in miRNA precursors. The results provide a general view of the mechanisms underlying the specificity of miRNA biogenesis in plants.

Project description:M. ciceri WSM1271 carries a novel integrative and conjugative element (ICE) termed a tripartite ICE (ICE3) that exists as thee separated DNA regions in the chromosome. Three site-specific recombinases acting on three distinct pairs of attachment sites catalyse recombination between the three ICE3 DNA regions leading to their excision from the chromosome to form a single plasmid-like entity for horizontal conjugative transfer. RNASeq was used to probe for differentially expressed ICE3-encoded genes in WSM1271 wild-type cells, and engineered WSM1271 cells carrying cloned copies of two quorum-sensing loci that induce ICE3 excision and transfer. Overall, 187 significantly differentially expressed genes (adjusted P-value < 0.05) were identified and although ICEMcSym1271 comprised only ~7.6% of the chromosome, 15.5% (29) of the differentially expressed genes were located on ICEMcSym1271. Genes likely involved in activation of excision and conjugation including rdfS, rlxS, msi172-msi171 and the type-IV conjugative pilus gene cluster msi031-trbBCDEJLFGI-msi021 were all significantly induced. The RNA-Seq libraries generated in this study have strongly aided the development of our model detailing the regulation of excision and transfer of ICE3s.

A 24 chip study using total RNA recovered from samples of petal and sepal tissue of Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink harvested at four different stages of flower development, namely (i) preanthesis (three days before flower opening=d-3), (ii) anthesis (day of flower opening=d1), (iii) maturation (four days after flower opening=d4) and (iv) presenescence (seven days after flower opening=d7). Three separate samples were extracted per tissue and developmental stages. Each chip measures the expression level of 11,959 ESTs from Antirrhinum majus cv. Maryland True Pink with up to six 60-mer probes per target.

Project description:Transposon insertion site sequencing (TIS) is a powerful method for associating genotype to phenotype. However, all TIS methods described to date use short nucleotide sequence reads which cannot uniquely determine the locations of transposon insertions within repeating genomic sequences where the repeat units are longer than the sequence read length. To overcome this limitation, we have developed a TIS method using Oxford Nanopore sequencing technology that generates and uses long nucleotide sequence reads; we have called this method LoRTIS (Long Read Transposon Insertion-site Sequencing). This experiment data contains sequence files generated using Nanopore and Illumina platforms. Biotin1308.fastq.gz and Biotin2508.fastq.gz are fastq files generated from nanopore technology. Rep1-Tn.fastq.gz and Rep1-Tn.fastq.gz are fastq files generated using Illumina platform. In this study, we have compared the efficiency of two methods in identification of transposon insertion sites.

Project description:Insertion sequences (IS) are compact and pervasive transposable elements found in bacteria, which encode only the genes necessary for their mobilization and maintenance. IS200/IS605 elements undergo ‘peel-and-paste’ transposition catalyzed by a TnpA transposase, but intriguingly, they also encode diverse, TnpB-family genes that are evolutionarily related to the CRISPR-associated effectors Cas9 and Cas12. Recent studies demonstrated that TnpB-family enzymes function as RNA-guided DNA endonucleases, but the broader biological role of this activity has remained enigmatic. Here we show that IscB and TnpB are essential to prevent loss of the donor IS element and potential transposon extinction as a consequence of the TnpA transposition mechanism. We first performed phylogenetic analysis of IscB/TnpB proteins and selected a family of related IS elements from Geobacillus stearothermophilus that we predicted would be mobilized by a common TnpA homolog. After reconstituting transposition using a heterologous expression system in E. coli, we found that IS elements were readily lost from the donor site due to the activity of TnpA in rejoining the flanking sequences back together upon excision. However, these IS elements also encode non-coding RNAs that guide TnpB and IscB nucleases to precisely recognize and cleave these excision products, leading either to elimination of the excision product or re-installation of the transposon through recombination. Indeed, under experimental conditions in which TnpA and TnpB-RNA complexes were co-expressed together with a genomically integrated IS element, transposon retention was significantly increased relative to conditions expressing TnpA alone. Remarkably, both TnpA and TnpB recognize the same AT-rich transposon-adjacent motif (TAM) during transposon excision and RNA-guided DNA cleavage, respectively, revealing a striking convergence in the evolution of DNA sequence specificity between transposase and nuclease. Collectively, our study reveals that RNA-guided DNA cleavage is a primal biochemical activity that arose to bias the selfish inheritance of transposable elements, which was later co-opted during the evolution of CRISPR-Cas adaptive immunity for antiviral defense.
