Project description:Cleavage and polyadenylation are the final steps of eukaryotic mRNA 3' end formation. The most critical element in humans and other model organisms is the poly(A) signal, an AAUAAA hexamer. We recently discovered that the deeply branching eukaryote – Giardia lamblia uses a different but well-defined poly(A) signal, AGURAA. To better characterize when this evolutionary shift in the poly(A) signal occurred, we performed direct RNA sequencing of four protists within the Metamonada supergroup and two outgroup protists. Both outgroup protists and the non-Giardia Metamonada species use the AAUAAA poly(A) signal, indicating it is the ancestral signal. In contrast, all Giardia species use the WGURAA poly(A) signal, indicating it is a derived feature within Giardia or Fornicata. The change in this ubiquitous regulatory element raises questions about the sequence features that specify genuine poly(A) sites and how to avoid premature cleavage in the coding sequence. Therefore, we used a sequence classifier, a gapped k-mer support vector machine, that could discriminate between WGURAA sites in 3'UTRs and those in the CDS (F1 = 0.97). We found that Giardia lamblia uses nucleotides directly flanking the poly(A) signal for its recognition, with downstream nucleotides being the most important. Another member of the Giardia genus, Giardia muris, uses a different strategy: almost complete depletion of WGURAA hexamers in coding sequences. Ones that remain in the coding sequence can be recognized as poly(A) signals and undergo premature cleavage. These results identify unique features of the Giardia pathogens that could be targeted for drugs and highlight the diversity and evolution of mRNA 3' end formation in eukaryotes.

Project description:We conduct herein a systematic study of mRNA recognition and consequent polyadenylation processing of the Arabidopsis mRNA by m6A reader protein CPSF70. Transcriptome-wide characterization of CPSF70-binding sites supporting the recognition m6A-methylated mRNA with CPSF70, and the results of which linked polyadenylation signals recognition. We then perform 3’end sequencing with A-seq2 to identify CPSF70-dependent APA process, showing that CPSF70 modulate m6A–dependent polyadenylation with FUE recognition.

Project description:Transcription of the mammalian genome is pervasive, but productive transcription outside of protein-coding genes is limited by unknown mechanisms. In particular, although RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) initiates divergently from most active gene promoters, productive elongation occurs primarily in the sense-coding direction. Here we show in mouse embryonic stem cells that asymmetric sequence determinants flanking gene transcription start sites control promoter directionality by regulating promoter-proximal cleavage and polyadenylation. We find that upstream antisense RNAs are cleaved and polyadenylated at poly(A) sites (PASs) shortly after initiation. De novo motif analysis shows PAS signals and U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) recognition sites to be the most depleted and enriched sequences, respectively, in the sense direction relative to the upstream antisense direction. These U1 snRNP sites and PAS sites are progressively gained and lost, respectively, at the 5' end of coding genes during vertebrate evolution. Functional disruption of U1 snRNP activity results in a dramatic increase in promoter-proximal cleavage events in the sense direction with slight increases in the antisense direction. These data suggest that a U1-PAS axis characterized by low U1 snRNP recognition and a high density of PASs in the upstream antisense region reinforces promoter directionality by promoting early termination in upstream antisense regions, whereas proximal sense PAS signals are suppressed by U1 snRNP. We propose that the U1-PAS axis limits pervasive transcription throughout the genome. 3' end sequencing of poly (A) + RNAs in mouse ES cells with and without U1 snRNP inhibition using antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (AMO). Each with two biological replicates.

Project description:Cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor (CPSF) is the central component of the 3' processing machinery for polyadenylated mRNAs in metazoans: CPSF recognizes the polyadenylation signal AAUAAA, providing sequence specificity in both pre-mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation, and catalyzes pre-mRNA cleavage. Here we show that of the seven polypeptides that have been proposed to constitute CPSF, only four, CPSF160, CPSF30, hFip1 and WDR33, are necessary and sufficient to reconstitute a CPSF subcomplex active in AAUAAA-dependent polyadenylation, whereas CPSF100, CPSF73 and symplekin are dispensable. WDR33 is required for binding of reconstituted CPSF to AAUAAA-containing RNA and can be specifically UV-crosslinked to such RNAs, as can be CPSF30. Transcriptome-wide identification of WDR33 targets by PAR-CLIP shows that WDR33 specifically binds the AAUAAA signal in vivo in contrast to any of the five other CPSF subunits tested before. Thus, our data indicate that the CPSF subunit that is mainly responsible for recognizing the polyadenylation signal is WDR33 and not CPSF160, as suggested by previous studies. Transcriptome-wide profiling of WDR33 binding sites using PAR-CLIP in HEK293 cells.
