Bacterial RNA sensing by TLR8 requires RNase 6 processing and is inhibited by RNA 2’O-methylation

ABSTRACT: Mechanistic studies have revealed that TLR8 senses single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) fragments, processed via synergistic cleavage by ribonucleases (RNase) T2 and RNase A family members. Processing by these RNases releases uridines and purine-terminated residues resulting in TLR8 activation. Monocytes show high expression of RNase 6, yet this RNase has not been analyzed for its physiological contribution to recognition of bacterial RNA by TLR8. Herein, we characterized molecular RNase 6 cleavage mechanisms. BLaER1 RNASE6-/- cells showed a dampened TLR8-dependent response upon stimulation with isolated bacterial RNA (bRNA) but also upon infection with live whole bacteria. Pretreatment of bacterial RNA with recombinant RNase 6 generated fragments that induced stimulation in RNASE6 knockout cells. 2’O-RNA methyl modification, when introduced at the first uridine in the UA dinucleotide, impaired upstream processing by RNase 6 and dampened TLR8 stimulation. In summary, this data shows that RNase 6 plays a critical role in the processing of bacterial RNA by generating uridine-terminated breakdown products that ultimately activate TLR8.

In vivo cleavage map illuminates the central role of RNase E in coding and noncoding RNA pathways

Project description:Understanding RNA processing and turnover requires knowledge of cleavages by major endoribonucleases within a living cell. We have employed TIER-Seq (transiently inactivating an endoribonuclease followed by RNA-Seq) to profile cleavage products of the essential endoribonuclease RNase E in Salmonella enterica. A dominating cleavage signature is the location of a uridine two nucleotides downstream in a single-stranded segment, which we rationalize structurally as a key recognition determinant that may favor RNase E catalysis. Our results suggest a prominent biogenesis pathway for bacterial regulatory small RNAs, whereby RNase E acts together with the RNA chaperone Hfq to liberate stable 3’-fragments from various precursor RNAs. Recapitulating this process in vitro, Hfq guides RNase E cleavage of a representative small RNA precursor for interaction with a mRNA target. In vivo, the processing is required for target regulation. Our findings reveal a general maturation mechanism for a major class of post- transcriptional regulators.

High-resolution RNA 3’-ends mapping of bacterial rho-dependent transcripts

Project description:Transcription termination in bacteria can occur either via Rho-dependent or independent (intrinsic) mechanisms. Intrinsic terminators are composed of a stem-loop RNA structure followed by a uridine stretch and are known to terminate in a precise manner. In contrast, Rho-dependent terminators have more loosely defined characteristics and are thought to terminate in a diffuse manner. While transcripts ending in an intrinsic terminator are protected from 3’-5’ exonuclease digestion due to the stem-loop structure of the terminator, it remains unclear what protects Rho-dependent transcripts from being degraded. In this study, we mapped the exact steady-state RNA 3’ ends of hundreds of E. coli genes terminated either by Rho-dependent or independent mechanisms. We found that transcripts generated from Rho-dependent termination have precise 3’-ends at steady state. These termini were localized immediately downstream of energetically stable stem-loop structures, which were not followed by uridine rich sequences. We provide evidence that these structures protect Rho-dependent transcripts from 3’-5’ exonucleases such as PNPase and RNase II, and present data localizing the Rho-utilization (rut) sites immediately downstream of these protective structures. This study represents the first extensive in-vivo map of exact RNA 3’-ends of Rho-dependent transcripts in E. coli.

RNase H1 directs origin-specific initiation of DNA replication in human mitochondria

Project description:Human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication is first initiated at the origin of H-strand replication. The initiation depends on RNA primers generated by transcription from an upstream promoter (LSP). Here we reconstitute this process in vitro using purified transcription and replication factors. The majority of all transcription events from LSP are prematurely terminated after 120 nucleotides, forming stable R-loops. These nascent R-loops cannot directly prime mtDNA synthesis, but must first be processed by RNase H1 to generate 3-ends that can be used by DNA polymerase to initiate DNA synthesis. Our findings are consistent with recent studies of a knockout mouse model, which demonstrated that RNase H1 is required for R-loop processing and mtDNA maintenance in vivo. Both R-loop formation and DNA replication initiation are stimulated by the mitochondrial single-stranded DNA binding protein. In an RNase H1 deficient patient cell line, the precise initiation of mtDNA replication is lost and DNA synthesis is initiated from multiple sites throughout the mitochondrial control region. In combination with previously published in vivo data, the findings presented here suggests a model, in which R-loop processing by RNase H1 directs origin-specific initiation of DNA replication in human mitochondria.

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.

Feedback regulation of RNase E during UV-stress response in cyanobacteria

Project description:Endoribonucleases govern the maturation and degradation of RNA and are indispensable in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. A key endoribonuclease in many bacteria is RNase E. To ensure an appropriate supply of RNase E, some bacteria such as E. coli have evolved a tightly functioning feedback regulation of RNase E, which is mediated in cis by the rne 5′-untranslated region (5′UTR); however, the mechanisms involved in the control of RNase E in other bacteria have largely remained unknown. Cyanobacteria rely on solar light as energy source for their photosynthetic lifestyle, despite the inherent ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Here, we revealed the global gene expression response in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 after exposure to UV light and discovered a unique response of RNase E: a rapidly increasing enzymatic activity although stability of the protein was lowered . In parallel, we observed a substantial stabilization of the full-length mRNA specifically after UV-C treatment, while the 5′UTR accumulated under all conditions. Mapping of RNA 3′ends and in vitro cleavage assays revealed that RNase E cleaves within a stretch of six consecutive uridine residues within the rne 5′UTR, indicating the autoregulation of RNase E via its own 5′UTR. These observations imply that RNase E in cyanobacteria evolved as a substantial contributor in re-shaping the transcriptome during the UV stress response, that its required activity level is maintained despite enhanced turnover of the protein, and that the underlying mechanism involves a feedback mechanism acting on a uridine-rich element within the rne 5′UTR.

Molecular basis for cytoplasmic RNA surveillance by uridylation-triggered decay in Drosophila

Project description:The post-transcriptional addition of nucleotides to the 3´ end of RNA regulates the maturation, function, and stability of RNA species in all domains of life. Here, we show that, in flies, 3´ terminal RNA uridylation triggers the processive, 3´-to-5´ exoribonucleolytic decay via the RNase II/R enzyme CG16940, a homolog of the human Perlman syndrome exoribonuclease Dis3l2. Together with the TUTase Tailor, dmDis3l2 forms the cytoplasmic, uridylation-triggered RNA processing (TRUMP) complex, that functionally cooperates in the degradation of structured RNA. RNA-immunoprecipitation and high-throughput sequencing reveals a variety of TRUMP complex substrates, including abundant non-coding RNA, such as 5S rRNA, tRNA, snRNA, snoRNA, and the essential RNase MRP, uncovering a key function of the TRUMP complex in the cytoplasmic quality control of RNA polymerase III transcripts. Together with high-throughput biochemical characterization of dmDis3l2 and bacterial RNase R our results imply a conserved molecular function of RNase II/R enzymes as 'readers' of destabilizing post-transcriptional marks - uridylation in eukaryotes and adenylation in prokaryotes - that play important roles in RNA surveillance.

Bacterial RNase III cleaves long dsRNA at preferred sites

Project description:Members of the ribonuclease (RNase) III family regulate gene expression by processing double-stranded (ds) RNA. The founding member of the family, Escherichia coli (Ec) RNase III, is the most comprehensively studied and its E38A mutant (EcE38A) is an economical reagent for the preparation of small interfering (si) RNA cocktails. Previously, it was shown that EcRNase III recognizes dsRNA with little specificity and that EcE38A mainly produces 23-nucleotide (nt) siRNAs. To characterize substrate specificity and product size, we performed in vitro cleavage of dsRNAs by bacterial RNase IIIs and delineated the cleavage products by next generation sequencing. Surprisingly, we found that RNase III cleaves dsRNA at preferred sites and most siRNAs produced by EcE38A are 22 nt long. We eliminated the sequence specificity of EcE38A through the introduction of additional mutations, thereby creating a reagent that is ideally suited for producing heterogeneous siRNA cocktails to be used in gene silencing studies.

Small RNAs generated in vitro by budding-yeast Dicer

Project description:The Dicer ribonuclease III (RNase III) enzymes process long double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) into the small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that direct RNA interference. Here, we describe the structure and activity of a catalytically active fragment of Kluyveromyces polysporus Dcr1, which represents the noncanonical Dicers found in budding yeast. The crystal structure reveals a homodimer that resembles bacterial RNase III but includes a novel N-terminal domain and newly identified catalytic residues conserved throughout eukaryotic RNase III enzymes. Biochemical analyses show that Dcr1 dimers bind cooperatively along the dsRNA substrate and cleave at precise intervals based on the distance between consecutive active sites. Thus, unlike canonical Dicers, which successively remove siRNA duplexes from the dsRNA termini, Dcr1 initiates processing in the interior and works outward. The distinct mechanism of budding-yeast Dicers establishes a novel paradigm for natural protein-based molecular rulers and imparts substrate preferences with ramifications for biological function.

Bacterial nucleoside catabolism controls quorum sensing and commensal-to-pathogen transition in the Drosophila gut

Project description:Although gut microbiomes are generally symbiotic or commensal, some of microbiomes become pathogenic under certain circumstances, which is one of key processes of pathogenesis. However, the factors involved in these complex gut-microbe interactions are largely unknown. Here we show that bacterial nucleoside catabolism using gut luminal uridine is required to boost inter-bacterial communications and gut pathogenesis in Drosophila. We found that uridine-derived uracil is required for DUOX-dependent ROS generation on the host side, whereas uridine-derived ribose induces quorum sensing and virulence gene expression on the bacterial side. Importantly, genetic ablation of bacterial nucleoside catabolism is sufficient to block the commensal-to-pathogen transition in vivo. Furthermore, we found that major commensal bacteria lack functional nucleoside catabolism, which is required to achieve gut-microbe symbiosis. The discovery of a novel role of bacterial nucleoside catabolism will greatly help to better understand the molecular mechanism of the commensal-to-pathogen transition in different contexts of host-microbe interactions.
