3'uridylation controls mature miRNA turnover during T cell activation

ABSTRACT: Activation of T lymphocytes requires a tight regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) expression. Terminal uridyltransferases (TUTases) catalyze 3' non-templated nucleotide addition (3'NTA) to miRNAs which may influence miRNA stability and function. We investigated 3'NTA to mature miRNA in CD4 T lymphocytes by deep sequencing. Upon T cell activation, uracil addition is specifically decreased, concomitantly with downregulation of TUT4 enzyme. By analyzing TUT4 deficient mice, we proved that this terminal uridyltransferase is essential for the maintenance of miRNA uridylation in steady state of T lymphocytes and established the requirement of TUT4 for a proper germinal center reaction. Analysis of synthetic uridylated miRNAs indicates that 3' addition of uridine promotes degradation of miRNAs after T cell activation. Our data support post-transcriptional uridylation as a mechanism to fine tune miRNA levels during T cell activation.

Sensing the end: how TUT7 controls the fate of precursor microRNAs by uridylation

Project description:Terminal uridylyl transferases (TUTs) function as integral regulators of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis by modifying the end structure of precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA). Using biochemistry and deep sequencing techniques, we here investigate the mechanism how human TUT7 recognizes and uridylates pre-miRNAs. We show that the overhang of a pre-miRNA is the key structural element that TUT7 and its paralogues, TUT4 and TUT2, recognize. For group II pre-miRNAs which have a 1 nt 3’ overhang, TUT7 restores the canonical end structure (2 nt 3’ overhang) by mono-uridylation, and thereby promotes miRNA biogenesis. Interestingly, once the 3’ end is receded into the stem (3’ trimmed pre-miRNAs such as Ago-cleaved-pre-miRNA), TUT7 effectively generates an oligo-U tail that consequently leads to degradation. Our single-molecule study further suggests that a distributive mode is employed for both pathways, but the overhang length determines the frequency of TUT7-RNA interaction. Our results explain how TUT7 and TUT4 differentiate pre-miRNA species and reveal a role for TUT7 and TUT4 in the oligo-uridylation and removal of defective pre-miRNAs.

Sequence-specific mono-uridylation of mature miRNAs by Zcchc6 and Zcchc11

Project description:Recent small RNA sequencing data has uncovered extensive modification of the 3’ end of mature microRNAs (miRNAs). This non-templated nucleotide addition can impact miRNA gene regulatory networks through the control of miRNA stability or by interfering with the repression of target mRNAs. The miRNA modifying enzymes responsible for this regulation remain largely uncharacterized. Here we describe the ability for two related terminal uridyl transferases (TUTases), Zcchc6 (TUT7) and Zcchc11 (TUT4), to 3’ mono-uridylate a specific subset of miRNAs involved in cell differentiation and Hox gene control. Zcchc6/11 selectively uridylate these miRNAs in vitro, and we biochemically define a bipartite sequence motif that is necessary and sufficient to confer Zcchc6/11 catalyzed uridylation. Depletion of these TUTases in cultured cells causes the selective loss of 3’ mono-uridylation of many of the same miRNAs. Interestingly, upon TUTase dependent loss of uridylation we observe a concomitant increase in non-templated 3’ mono-adenylation. Our results uncover the molecular basis for sequence specific miRNA mono-uridylation by Zcchc6/11, highlight the precise control of different 3’ miRNA modifications in cells, and have implications for miRNA regulation during development. small RNA profiles in TUTases knock-down and control HeLa cells were generated by Illumina deep sequencing

A mechanism for microRNA arm switching regulated by uridylation [RNA-seq]

Project description:Strand selection is a critical step in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. Although the dominant strand may alter depending on cellular contexts, the molecular mechanism and physiological significance of such alternative strand selection (or “arm switching”) remain elusive. Here we find miR-324 as one of the strongly regulated miRNAs by arm switching, and identify terminal uridylyl transferases TUT4 and TUT7 as the key regulators. Uridylation of pre-miR-324 by TUT4/7 re-positions DICER on the pre-miRNA and shifts the cleavage site. This alternative processing produces a duplex with a different terminus, from which the 3′ strand (3p) is selected instead of the 5′ strand (5p). In glioblastoma, the TUT4/7 and 3p levels are upregulated while the 5p level is reduced. Manipulation of the strand ratio is sufficient to impair glioblastoma cell proliferation. This study uncovers a role of uridylation as a molecular switch in alternative strand selection and implicates its therapeutic potential.

Role of TUT4 and TUT7 on the regulation of MHV poly(A) tail length and 3' end additions [17-CL1_Mutants]

Project description:Terminal uridylation of mRNAs poly(A) tails by Terminal Uridylyl Transferases (TUTs) promote transcript decay. Here, we investigate the role of two functionally redundant mammalian TUTs, TUT4 and TUT7 (TUT4/7), in mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) RNA processing. We generated a TUT4/7 knock-down 17-CL1 cell line using lentivirus encoding shRNAs against Tut4 and Tut7 transcripts (shTUT4/7) and a control 17-CL1 cell line (shCTL) with a non-targeting shRNA. We then infected the shCTL and shTUT4/7 cells with MHV and isolated RNA at 24- and 48-hours post-infection (hpi). We found that viral RNA poly(A) tails of about 20 and 40 nucleotides are highly uridylated and that the uridylation of the 20 nucleotide long tails is dependent on TUT4/7. Depletion of TUT4/7 also resulted in an accumulation of the viral RNA.

Small RNA profiles following TUT knock-down in HeLa

Project description:The precise control of microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis is important for various cellular functions, and its dysregulation is often associated with human diseases. We previously reported that Terminal uridylyl transferase 4 (TUT4) down-regulates let-7 miRNA biogenesis by oligo-uridylating let-7 precursor (pre-let-7) in mouse embryonic stem cells and that a pluripotency marker Lin28 promotes a processivity of TUT4. Here we find that TUT4 positively controls let-7 biogenesis by adding a uridine residue to the 3’ end of pre-let-7 in the absence of Lin28. Such mono-uridylation enhances Dicer processing by generating an optimal end structure of pre-let-7 for Dicer recognition and may protect pre-miRNA from trimming. Moreover, TUT7, TUT4 and TUT2 redundantly regulate pre-let-7 processing and simultaneous knock down of these TUTs leads to the decrease of mature let-7 and the accumulation of pre-let-7 in cells. This study provides a novel regulation mechanism of miRNA biogenesis, which may function in development and tumorigenesis. HeLa cells were transfected with siRNA two times over a 4~5 day period.

Synergistic and independent actions of multiple terminal nucleotidyl transferases in 3’ tailing of small RNAs in Arabidopsis

Project description:Small silencing RNAs are key regulators of gene expression in both plants and animals. HEN1-mediated 3’ terminal 2’-O-methylation plays a crucial role in small RNA stability control. In the absence of HEN1, small RNAs are frequently uridylated (untemplated uridine addition) and trimmed, a phenomenon that is conserved across species. However, the underlying molecular mechanism is largely unknown. In this study, we have discovered UTP: RNA uridylyltransferase (URT1) acts redundantly with HESO1 in the uridylation of miRNAs, in addition to its role in oligo-adenylated mRNA uridylation. We show both common and distinctive features of URT1 and HESO1 in catalyzing miRNA uridylation. non coding RNA deep sequencing
