Project description:Hairpin RNA (hpRNA) transgenes, with a perfect inverted-repeat (IR) DNA, have been the most successful RNA interference (RNAi) method in plants. Here we show that hpRNA transgenes were invariably methylated in the IR DNA and the adjacent promoter, causing transcriptional self-silencing and preventing the full potential of RNAi. Nucleotide substitutions in the sense sequence, which disrupts the perfect IR DNA structure, were sufficient to prevent the intrinsic DNA methylation resulting in more uniform and persistent RNAi. Substituting all cytosine (C) with thymine (T) nucleotides, in a G:U hpRNA design, prevented DNA methylation and self-silencing but still allowed for the formation of perfect hpRNA due to G:U wobble base-pairing. The G:U design induces effective RNAi in 90-96% of transgenic lines, compared to 57-65% for the traditional hpRNA design. Furthermore, while a traditional hpRNA transgene showed increasing DNA methylation and self-silencing from cotyledons to true leaves, the G:U transgenes avoided this developmental progression of self-silencing and induced RNAi throughout plant growth. The G:U and traditional hpRNA transgenes generated small interfering RNA (siRNA) with different 5’ phosphorylation, which resembled the endogenous tasiRNA and miRNA, respectively. Furthermore, our results suggest that siRNAs from the two transgene designs function differently to induce target DNA methylation, one (from traditional hpRNA) through the canonical RdDM pathway and the other (G:U hpRNA) a non-canonical pathway. Our study not only revealed a methylation-resistant RNAi transgene design but also provided new mechanistic insights into small RNA biogenesis and function in plants

Project description:Small RNAs (sRNAs) are essential for normal plant development and range in size classes of 21-24 nucleotides. The 22nt small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and miRNAs are processed by Dicer-like 2 (DCL2) and DCL1 respectively and can initiate secondary siRNA production from the target transcript amplifying the silencing signal in plants. 22nt siRNAs are under-represented due to competition with DCL4, while only a small number of 22nt miRNAs exist due to the rare occurrence of an asymmetric bulge in the precursor miRNA stem. Here we report a strategy to produce abundant 22nt siRNAs and other desired siRNA size classes using long hairpin RNA (hpRNA) transgenes. By introducing asymmetric bulges periodically into the antisense strand of hpRNA, we successfully shifted the dominant siRNA size class from 21nt of the traditional hpRNA to 22, 23 and 24nt of the asymmetric hpRNAs. We showed that the asymmetric hpRNA constructs effectively silenced a β-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter transgene and the endogenous ethylene insensitive-2 (EIN2) and chalcone synthase (CHS) genes. Furthermore, plants containing the asymmetric hpRNA transgenes targeting both GUS and EIN2 showed increased amount of 21nt siRNAs downstream of the hpRNA target site compared to plants with the traditional hpRNA transgenes. This indicates that these asymmetric hpRNAs are more effective at inducing secondary siRNA production to amplify silencing signals. Consistent with the production of secondary siRNAs, the 22nt asymmetric hpRNA constructs increased gene silencing phenotypes and enhanced virus resistance in plants compared to the traditional hpRNA constructs.

Project description:The goal of these experiments were to test the on-target and target-adjacent editing efficiencies of different single-nucleobase editing systems. Previous studies have shown that tethering DNA mutating enzymes to Cas9-nickase-UGI complexes results in editing of chromosomal DNA. However, these editing events encompass undesirable target-adjacent nucleobase edits. Here, we characterize a novel approach that reduces the frequency of target-adjacent editing while maintaining a high level of on-target editing.

Project description:Although the biological utilities of endogenous RNAi (endo-RNAi) have been largely elusive, recent studies reveal its critical role in the non-model fruitfly Drosophila simulans to suppress selfish genes, whose unchecked activities can severely impair spermatogenesis. In particular, hairpin RNA (hpRNA) loci generate endo-siRNAs that suppress evolutionary novel, X-linked, meiotic drive loci. The consequences of deleting even a single hpRNA (Nmy) in males are profound, as such individuals are nearly incapable of siring male progeny. Here, comparative genomic analyses of D. simulans and D. melanogaster mutants of the core RNAi factor dcr-2 reveal a substantially expanded network of recently-emerged hpRNA-target interactions in the former species. The de novo hpRNA regulatory network in D. simulans bears compelling signatures of sex chromosome conflict and provides insight into molecular strategies that underlie hpRNA emergence. In particular, our data support the existence of ongoing rapid evolution of Nmy/Dox-related networks, recurrent targeting of testis HMG Box loci by hpRNAs, and connections to transposons. Importantly, the impact of the endo-RNAi network on gene expression flips the convention for regulatory networks, since we observe strong derepression of targets of the youngest hpRNAs, but only mild effects on the targets of the oldest hpRNAs. These data suggest that endo-RNAi are especially critical during incipient stages of intrinsic sex chromosome conflicts, and that continual cycles of distortion and resolution may contribute to speciation.

Project description:Pathogenic allele silencing is a promising treatment for genetic hereditary diseases. However, the concern about the specificity of present RNA-knockdown strategies has limited their in vivo applications. Here a TaqTth-hpRNA system consisting of a small, chimeric protein (TaqTth) and hairpin-RNA probe (hpRNA) is provided. The TaqTth-hpRNA showed a high-specific knockdown against targeted mRNA with minimal flanking sequence-motif requirement and less cell viability damage, then was applied to mutant APPswe mRNA silencing without altering the wild-type APP mRNA in Alzheimer’s disease. Notably, the combination of the TaqTth and human apolipoprotein E 2 (APOE2) overexpression encoded in a single AAV vector is available due to the compact size of TaqTth, and showed stronger inhibition of pathologies in the mouse model. Altogether, we provided the basis for a small RNA-targeting tool with high selectivity, minimal flanking sequence-motif requirement, less cell viability damage and potentially being an alternative in therapeutic applications.
