Project description:Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated protein (CRISPR/Cas) technologies have evolved rapidly over the past decade with the continuous discovery of new Cas systems. In particular, RNA-targeting CRISPR-Cas13 proteins are promising single-effector systems to regulate target mRNAs without altering genomic DNA, yet the current Cas13 systems are still restrained by suboptimal efficiencies. Here, we show that U1-driven CRISPR RNAs (crRNAs) can dramatically increase the efficiency of various applications, including RNA knockdown and editing, without modifying the Cas13 protein effectors. We confirm that U1-driven crRNAs are exported into the cytoplasm, while conventional U6 promoter-driven crRNAs are mostly confined in the nucleus. Furthermore, we reveal that the end positions of crRNAs expressed by the U1 promoter are consistent regardless of different guide sequences and lengths. We also demonstrate that U1-driven crRNAs, but not U6-driven crRNAs, can efficiently repress the translation of target genes in combination with catalytically inactive Cas13 proteins. Finally, we show that U1-driven crRNAs can counteract the inhibitory effect of miRNAs. Our simple and effective engineering enables unprecedented cytosolic RNA-targeting applications.

Project description:CRISPR-Cas13 systems have been adapted as versatile toolkits for RNA-related applications. Here we systematically evaluate the performance of several prominent Cas13 family effectors (Cas13a, Cas13b and Cas13d) under lentiviral vectors and reveal surprisingly differential defects and characteristics of these systems. Using RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing, transcriptome profiling, biochemistry analysis and high-throughput CRISPR-Cas13 screening approaches, we determine that each Cas13 system has its intrinsic RNA targets in mammalian cells. Viral process-related host genes can be targeted by Cas13 and affect the production of fertile lentiviral particles, thereby restricting the utility of lentiviral Cas13 systems. Multiple RNase activities of Cas13 are involved in endogenous RNA targeting. Unlike target-induced collateral effect, intrinsic RNA targeting can be specific, target-independent and dynamically tuned by varied states of Cas13 nucleases. Our work not only provides guidance to appropriately utilize lentiviral Cas13 systems, but also raises cautions about intrinsic RNA targeting during Cas13-based basic and therapeutic applications.

Project description:Kynureninase is a member of a large family of catalytically diverse but structurally homologous pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP) dependent enzymes known as the aspartate aminotransferase superfamily or alpha-family. The Homo sapiens and other eukaryotic constitutive kynureninases preferentially catalyze the hydrolytic cleavage of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine to produce 3-hydroxyanthranilate and l-alanine, while l-kynurenine is the substrate of many prokaryotic inducible kynureninases. The human enzyme was cloned with an N-terminal hexahistidine tag, expressed, and purified from a bacterial expression system using Ni metal ion affinity chromatography. Kinetic characterization of the recombinant enzyme reveals classic Michaelis-Menten behavior, with a Km of 28.3 +/- 1.9 microM and a specific activity of 1.75 micromol min-1 mg-1 for 3-hydroxy-dl-kynurenine. Crystals of recombinant kynureninase that diffracted to 2.0 A were obtained, and the atomic structure of the PLP-bound holoenzyme was determined by molecular replacement using the Pseudomonas fluorescens kynureninase structure (PDB entry 1qz9) as the phasing model. A structural superposition with the P. fluorescens kynureninase revealed that these two structures resemble the "open" and "closed" conformations of aspartate aminotransferase. The comparison illustrates the dynamic nature of these proteins' small domains and reveals a role for Arg-434 similar to its role in other AAT alpha-family members. Docking of 3-hydroxy-l-kynurenine into the human kynureninase active site suggests that Asn-333 and His-102 are involved in substrate binding and molecular discrimination between inducible and constitutive kynureninase substrates.

Project description:The CRISPR/Cas13 system has garnered attention as a potential tool for RNA editing. However, the degree of collateral activity among various Cas13 orthologs and their cytotoxic effects in mammalian cells remain contentious, potentially impacting their applications. In this study, we observed differential collateral activities for LwaCas13a and RfxCas13d in 293T and U87 cells by applying both sensitive dual-fluorescence (mRuby/GFP) reporter and quantifiable dual-luciferase (Fluc/Rluc) reporter, with LwaCas13a displaying notable activity contrary to previous reports. However, significant collateral RNA cleavage exerted only a modest impact on cell viability. Furthermore, the collateral activity of LwaCas13a mildly impeded but did not arrest, porcine embryo development. Our findings reveal that distinct collateral RNA cleavage by Cas13 slightly suppresses mammalian cell proliferation and embryo development. This could account for the lack of reported collateral effects in numerous prior studies and offers new insights into the implications of the collateral activity of Cas13 for clinical application.

Project description:As the evolution of miRNA genes has been found to be one of the important factors in formation of the modern type of man, we performed a comparative analysis of the evolution of miRNA genes in two archaic hominines, Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova, and elucidated the expression of their target mRNAs in bain.A comparative analysis of the genomes of primates, including species in the genus Homo, identified a group of miRNA genes having fixed substitutions with important implications for the evolution of Homo sapiens neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens denisova. The mRNAs targeted by miRNAs with mutations specific for Homo sapiens denisova exhibited enhanced expression during postnatal brain development in modern humans. By contrast, the expression of mRNAs targeted by miRNAs bearing variations specific for Homo sapiens neanderthalensis was shown to be enhanced in prenatal brain development.Our results highlight the importance of changes in miRNA gene sequences in the course of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis evolution. The genetic alterations of miRNAs regulating the spatiotemporal expression of multiple genes in the prenatal and postnatal brain may contribute to the progressive evolution of brain function, which is consistent with the observations of fine technical and typological properties of tools and decorative items reported from archaeological Denisovan sites. The data also suggest that differential spatial-temporal regulation of gene products promoted by the subspecies-specific mutations in the miRNA genes might have occurred in the brains of Homo sapiens denisova and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis, potentially contributing to the cultural differences between these two archaic hominines.
