Project description:During the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), maternal RNAs are actively degraded and replaced by newly-synthesized zygotic transcripts in a highly coordinated manner. However, it remains largely unknown how maternal mRNA decay is triggered in early vertebrate embryos. Here, through genome-wide profiling of RNA abundance and 3′ modification, we show that uridylation is induced at the onset of maternal mRNA clearance. The temporal control of uridylation is conserved in vertebrates. When the homologs of terminal uridylyltransferases TUT4 and TUT7 (TUT4/7) are depleted in zebrafish and Xenopus, maternal mRNA clearance is significantly delayed, leading to developmental defects during gastrulation. Short-tailed mRNAs are selectively uridylated by TUT4/7, with the highly uridylated transcripts degraded faster during the MZT than those with unmodified poly(A) tails. Our study demonstrates that uridylation plays a crucial role in timely mRNA degradation, thereby allowing the progression of early development.

Project description:Maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a conserved and fundamental process during which the maternal environment of oocyte transits to the zygotic genome driven expression program, and terminally differentiated oocyte and sperm are reprogrammed to totipotency. It is initiated by maternal mRNAs and proteins during the period of zygotic genome quiescence after fertilization, followed by a gradual switch to zygotic genome activation and accompanied by clearance of maternal RNAs and proteins. A key question for embryonic development is how MZT process is regulated. Here we used a low-input proteomic analysis to measure the proteomic dynamics during early development of mouse maternal-to-zygotic transition.

Project description:Uridylation occurs pervasively on mRNAs in mammals, yet its mechanism and significance remain unknown. Here we identify TUT4 and TUT7 (also known as ZCCHC11 and ZCCHC6, respectively) as the enzymes that uridylate mRNAs. Uridylation readily occurs on deadenylated mRNAs that are not associated with poly(A) binding protein (PABPC1) in cells. Consistently, purified TUT4 and TUT7 (TUT4/7) selectively uridylate RNAs with short A tails (< ~25 nt) while PABPC1 antagonizes uridylation of polyadenylated mRNAs in vitro. In cells depleted of TUT4/7, the vast majority of mRNAs lose the U tails, and their half-lives are extended. Suppression of mRNA decay factors leads to the accumulation of uridylated mRNAs. In line with this, microRNA induces uridylation of its targets, and TUT4/7 is required for enhanced decay of microRNA targets. Our study explains the mechanism underlying selective uridylation of deadenylated mRNAs, and demonstrates a fundamental role of the U tail as a molecular mark for global mRNA decay. HeLa cells were knocked down of control or TUT4/7, then total RNAs were prepared for RNA-seq on 0, 1, 2, 4h after actinomycin D treatment. The whole processes of experiments were repeated two times.

Project description:An embryo starts its life with maternal mRNA clearance, which is crucial for embryonic development. The elimination of maternal transcripts occurs by the joint action of two pathways: the first is a maternally encoded mRNA decay pathway (M-decay), while the second is zygotic genome activation (ZGA)-dependent pathway (Z-decay). However, the zygotic factors triggering maternal mRNA decay in early mammalian embryos remain largely unknown. In this study, we identify the zygotically encoded nuclear poly(A) binding protein 1 (PABPN1) as a factor required for maternal mRNA turnover, with an unpredictable cytoplasmic function. Cytoplasmic PABPN1 docks on 3ʹ-uridylated transcripts, downstream of terminal uridylyl transferases TUT4 and TUT7, and recruits 3ʹ-5ʹ exoribonuclease DIS3L2 to its targets, facilitating the decay of maternal mRNA. Pabpn1-knockout in mice resulted in preimplantation-stage mortality, due to early developmental arrest at the morula stage. This study characterizes the presence of a zygotic destabilizer of maternal mRNA and helps in elucidating the Z-decay process mechanisms, which potentially contribute to human fertility.

Thirteen separate sets of TAIL-seq experiments were performed. Each set includes a negative control for transfection, immunoprecipitation, or knockout cell generation. Experimental samples were treated with various conditions including siRNA transfection, transdominant negative protein expression, TALEN-based gene knockout, or immunoprecipitation. The 'README-TAIL-seq.txt' include detailed information about structure of seq entries in FASTQ files and of processed data for 3' end modifications.

Project description:In animal embryos the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) hands developmental control from maternal to zygotic gene products. We show that the maternal proteome represents over half of the protein coding capacity of the Drosophila melanogaster genome and that 2% of this proteome is rapidly degraded during the MZT. Cleared proteins include the post-transcriptional repressors Cup, Trailer hitch (TRAL), Maternal expression at 31B (ME31B), and Smaug (SMG). While the ubiquitin-proteasome system is necessary for clearance of all four repressors, distinct E3 ligase complexes target them: the C-terminal to Lis1 Homology (CTLH) complex targets Cup, TRAL and ME31B for degradation early in the MZT; the Skp/Cullin/F-box-containing (SCF) complex targets SMG at the end of the MZT. Deleting the C-terminal 233 amino acids of SMG makes the protein immune to degradation. We show that artificially persistent SMG downregulates the zygotic re-expression of mRNAs whose maternal contribution is cleared by SMG. Thus, clearance of SMG permits an orderly MZT.
