Project description:Micropeptides (≤100 amino acids) are essential regulators of physiological and pathological processes, which can be encoded by small open reading frames (smORFs) derived from long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs). Recently, lncRNA-encoded micropeptides have been shown to have essential roles in tumorigenesis. Since translated smORF identification remains technically challenging, little is known of their pathological functions in cancer. Therefore, we created classifiers to identify translated smORFs derived from lncRNAs based on ribosome-protected fragment sequencing and machine learning methods. In total, 537 putative translated smORFs were identified and the coding potential of five smORFs was experimentally validated via green fluorescent protein-tagged protein generation and mass spectrometry. After analyzing 11 lncRNA expression profiles of seven cancer types, we identified one validated translated lncRNA, ZFAS1, which was significantly up-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Functional studies revealed that ZFAS1 can promote cancer cell migration by elevating intracellular reactive oxygen species production by inhibiting nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase expression, indicating that translated ZFAS1 may be an essential oncogene in the progression of HCC. In this study, we systematically identified translated smORFs derived from lncRNAs and explored their potential pathological functions in cancer to improve our comprehensive understanding of the building blocks of living systems

Project description:The hereditary information encoded in DNA sequence is intrinsically susceptible to alterations, being continually threatened by a variety of genotoxic perturbations. To safeguard the stability of the genome, eukaryotic cells have evolved a set of sophisticated surveillance system that controls several aspects of the cellular response, including the detection of DNA lesions, a temporary cell cycle arrest, regulation of transcription, and the repair of the damaged DNA. However, it is still poorly understood how the DNA damage checkpoints and stalled RNAPII molecules convert a very limited amount of molecular-level information (even a single DNA lesion) in the context of an otherwise genome into regulation that halts and resumes the cell-cycle engine in a coordinated way. In this study, we reveal a map of extensive lncRNA transcription during DDR by using synchronized cells, leading to the unexpected identification of a poorly characterized mammalian lncRNA-ZFAS1. We describe that ZFAS1 functions as a key player of cellular response to DNA damage in both human and rodent cells by fine tuning RNAPII kinetics, suggesting a lncRNA-dependent transcriptional regulatory axis that maintains genomic stability upon DNA damage in mammalian cells.

Project description:Numerous long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are generated in response to external stimuli, but the scope and functions of such activity are not known. Here, we provide insight into how the transcription of lncRNAs are connected to DNA damage response by identifying a lncRNA ZFAS1, which is required for cell cycle arrest, transcription regulation and DNA repair. Mechanistically, ZFAS1 facilitates the changing hyperphosphorylated forms of the large subunit of RNAPII around transcription initiation sites by directly targeting the regulated genes. We revealed extensive transcription shutdown and concomitant stimulated engagement of RNAPII-Ser2P are crucial for repair and cell survival upon genotoxic stress. Finally, ZFAS1 knockout in mice dampened transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) and led to kidney dysplasia. Our study extends the understanding of lncRNAs in DNA damage repair (DDR) and implies a protective role of lncRNA against DDR-deficient developmental disorders.

Project description:Increasing evidence suggested that small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) were master regulators of gene regulation at epigenetic modification level, however, the underlying mechanism in colorectal cancer (CRC) have not been investigated. To demonstrate the involvement of LncRNA and snoRNAs in 2’-O-methylation (Me) in tumorigenesis, we develop the LncRNAs-snoRNAs microarray of paired CRC tissues, and found an unrecognized ZFAS1-NOP58- SNORD12C/78 signaling axis in CRC tumorigenesis through recognizing the consensus AAGA motif of ZFAS1 which directly binds to NOP58 protein, and accelerating the snoRNPs assemble for further guiding 2’-O-Me of 28S rRNA. Strikingly, overexpression SNORD12C/78 induces 2’-O-Me modification upon ZFAS1, and affects RNA stability and translation activity of their downstream targets (e.g., EIF4A3,LMAC2, etc.), thereby promoted CRC cell proliferation, invasion and inhibited apoptosis in vitro and in vivo. Thus, these results sheds new light on our understanding of lncRNAs-snoRNPs mediated rRNA 2'-O-methylations in CRC tumorigenesis.
