Project description:To explore the mechanism of pachytene pirna biogenesis, we employed a proteomics approach using flag-tagged adad2 transgenic mice expressed fully functional N-terminal epitope-tagged HA-ADAD2 and performed anti-FLAG immunoprecipitation coupled with quantitative mass spectrometry (IP-MS) from testis extracts of adult wt and transgenic mice.

Project description:Animal germ cells produce PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs), small silencing RNAs that suppress transposons and enable gamete maturation. Mammalian transposon-silencing piRNAs accumulate early in spermatogenesis, whereas pachytene piRNAs are produced later during post-natal spermatogenesis and account for >95% of all piRNAs in the adult mouse testis. Mutants defective for pachytene piRNA pathway proteins fail to produce mature sperm, but neither the piRNA precursor transcripts nor the trigger for pachytene piRNA production is known. Here, we show that the transcription factor A-MYB initiates pachytene piRNA production. A-MYB drives transcription of both pachytene piRNA precursor RNAs and the mRNAs for core piRNA biogenesis factors, including MIWI, the protein through which pachytene piRNAs function. A-MYB regulation of piRNA pathway proteins and piRNA genes creates a coherent feed-forward loop that ensures the robust accumulation of pachytene piRNAs. This regulatory circuit, which can be detected in rooster testes, likely predates the divergence of birds and mammals. ChIP sequencing in mouse and rooster testes.

Project description:In animal germline cells, Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) silence retrotransposons through post-transcriptional and transcriptional mechanisms. However, little is known, especially in mammals, about the functions of piRNAs beyond retrotransposon suppression1-5. In mammalian spermatocytes, piRNAs are known to be abundantly expressed6-10. Here, we show that a subset of coding and noncoding RNAs in mouse spermatocytes is degraded by the piRNA pathway. By analyzing the germline trasnscriptome of mice deficient in piRNA biogenesis, we identify hundreds of mRNAs as direct targets of piRNAs. Remarkably, the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of the mRNAs up-regulated in the piRNA pathway mutants are highly enriched with retrotransposon sequenes, implying that these sequences serve as regulatory elements for piRNA-mediated regulation. Furthermore, deficiencies of piRNAs derived from pseudogenes result in increased mRNA levels of their cognate genes, indicating that pseudogenes regulate their functional cognates via piRNAs. Moreover, we identify a large population of testis-enriched long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs), some of which are also degraded by the piRNA pathway. Collectively, our results reveal that the piRNA pathway regulates the expression of both mRNAs and lincRNAs in addition to retrotransposon RNAs during meiosis and the key role of retrotransposons and pseudogenes, two major types of genomic sequences, in this regulation by acting as piRNA sources and/or regulatory elements in target RNAs. mRNAs in leptotene/zygotene spermatocytes, early-pachytene spermatocytes, mid-pachytene spermatocytes, late pachytene/diplotene spermatocytes and round spermatids were analyzed by deep sequencing using Illumina HiSeq.

Project description:During embryonic germ cell development in mice, transposon-enriched, piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) guide MILI and MIWI2 to direct silencing of potentially active mobile element families. In contrast, we know much less about the function of the highly abundant and extremely diverse class of piRNAs, which partner with MIWI and MILI during meiosis. Both MIWI and its catalytic activity are required for successful spermatogenesis, strongly indicating that piRNA-guided cleavage is critical for germ cell development. To gain an understanding of meiotic piRNA targets, we augmented the mouse piRNA repertoire by introducing an entire human meiotic piRNA cluster. This triggered a spermatogenesis defect, presumably by inappropriately targeting the piRNA machinery to mouse RNAs essential for germ cell development. Through an analysis of such de novo targets, we derived a signature for pachytene piRNA target recognition. This enabled identification of both transposable elements and meiotically expressed protein coding genes as targets of native piRNAs. Cleavage of genic targets begins at the pachytene stage when meiotic piRNAs first appear. As such, target mRNA levels attenuate starting from the pachytene stage and are further repressed throughout meiosis. Target mRNA-piRNA pairs also show evidence of an ongoing cleavage-dependent amplification cycle, which is not normally a strong feature of meiotic piRNAs. Our data support the idea that meiotic piRNA populations must be strongly selected to enable successful spermatogenesis, both driving the response away from essential genes and directing the pathway toward mRNA targets that are regulated by small RNAs in meiotic cells. 48 samples

Project description:In the mammalian testis, the pool of spermatogonia is amplified by mitosis before these progenitor germ cells undergo meiosis to generate the haploid cells that give rise to sperm. Extensive changes in the transcriptome accompany the onset of the pachytene stage of meiosis, including the transcriptional activation of meiotic genes, the pachytene piRNA pathway, as well as mRNAs required later during spermiogenesis. How transcription is regulated to ensure the precise timing of this major reprogramming of gene expression remains largely uncharacterized. Here, we report that the testis-specific transcription factor TCFL5 is initially activated by the transcription factor A-MYB during meiosis. Subsequently, A-MYB and TCFL5 mutually reinforce their own transcription establishing a central regulatory circuit that regulates meiosis and spermiogenesis, as well as mediates pachytene piRNA production. TCFL5 drives the transcription of 476 genes required for meiosis including genes encoding pachytene piRNA biogenesis proteins, and 796 genes required for spermiogenesis. Tcfl5−/− mutant mice are sterile and spermatogenesis arrests at the mid- or late-pachytene stage of meiosis. Intriguingly, Tcfl5 haploinsufficiency leads to reduced male fertility suggesting germ cells are sensitive to Tcfl5 dosage to develop. Compromised TCFL5 expression underlies the reduced fertility phenotype directly or indirectly through regulating other transcription factors in Tcfl5+/− mutant mice. TCFL5 drives the transcription of evolutionarily younger pachytene piRNAs, while A-MYB regulates older pachytene piRNAs. Older and younger piRNAs mutually initiate their own processing providing evidence how these selfish genetic elements hijack meiotic transcriptional network to amplify themselves. We also demonstrate that TCFL5-mediated regulation of male meiosis and piRNA production is conserved in macaque. Our data establish a direct role of TCFL5 in ensuring the simultaneous activation of genes required for meiosis and spermiogenesis in mammals.

Project description:In mammals, piRNA populations are dynamic throughout male germ cell development. Embryonic piRNAs consist of both primary and secondary species and are mainly directed toward transposons. In meiotic cells, however, the piRNA population is transposon-poor and restricted to primary piRNAs derived from pachytene piRNA clusters. The mechanism controlling which piRNAs are present at each developmental stage is poorly understood. Here we show that RNF17 shapes adult meiotic piRNA content by suppressing the production of secondary piRNAs. In the absence of RNF17, ping-pong (secondary amplification) occurs inappropriately in meiotic cells – aberrantly targeting protein-coding genes and lncRNAs. Our data indicate that RNF17 comprises one component of a “refereeing” mechanism that prevents deleterious activity of the meiotic piRNA pathway by ensuring the selective loading of PIWI proteins with products of meiotic piRNA clusters.
