Project description:A hallmark of RNA silencing is a class of ~22 nt RNAs which are processed from dsRNA precursor by Dicer. Accurate processing by Dicer is critical for the functionality of microRNAs (miRNAs). According to the current model, Dicer measures the length by anchoring the 3' overhang of the dsRNA terminus. Here we find that human Dicer binds to the 5' end of RNA and utilizes the 5' end as an additional reference point for cleavage site selection (5' counting rule). We further identify a novel motif (5'-pocket) in Dicer, which recognizes the 5' end of RNA. By analyzing miRNA population from 5'-pocket mutant Dicer expressing Dicer-null mES, we provide that the 5' pocket is significant for Dicer processing in vivo. Examination of small RNA profiles from Dicer-null mouse embryonic stem cells transfected with either wild-type or 5' pocket mutant Dice expression plasmids.

Project description:Infection of animal cells by many viruses is detected and countered by a variety of means, including recognition of non-self nucleic acids. The zinc-finger antiviral protein (ZAP) depletes cytoplasmic RNA that is recognized as foreign in mammalian cells by virtue of its elevated CG dinucleotide content compared to endogenous mRNAs. Here, we determined a crystal structure of a protein-RNA complex containing the N-terminal, four-zinc finger human (h) ZAP RNA binding domain (RBD), and a CG dinucleotide-containing RNA target. The structure reveals in molecular detail how hZAP is able to bind selectively to CG-rich RNA. Specifically, the four zinc fingers create a basic patch on the hZAP RBD surface. The highly basic second zinc finger contains a pocket that selectively accommodates CG dinucleotide bases. Structure guided mutagenesis, crosslinking-immunoprecipitation-sequencing assays, and RNA affinity assays show that the structurally defined CG-binding pocket is not required for RNA binding per se in human cells. However, the pocket is a crucial determinant of high affinity specific binding to CG-dinucleotide-containing RNA. Moreover, variations in the RNA binding specificity a panel of CG-binding pocket mutants quantitatively predict their selective antiviral activity against a CG-enriched HIV-1 strain. Overall, the hZAP RBD:RNA structure provides an atomic-level explanation for how ZAP selectively targets foreign, CG-rich RNA.

Project description:Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7) plays a key role in the recognition of RNA viruses and the subsequent induction of an innate immune response. TLR7 contains two ligand binding pockets that recognize distinct RNA degradation products: Pocket 1 recognizes guanosine nucleotides and pocket 2 coordinates short, pyrimidine-rich RNA fragments, while the engagement of both pockets is required to activate TLR7. How these ligands are generated within the endolysosomal compartment is currently unknown. Using a pDC cell line, we here show that the endonuclease RNase T2 and the 5' exonucleases PLD3 and PLD4 act in concert to produce these ligands. On the one hand, RNase T2 generates 2',3'-cyclophosphate-guanosine terminated RNA fragments upon which PLD exonuclease activity acts to release the terminal 2',3'-cyclic GMP. This molecule serves as the physiological ligand for the first binding pocket. On the other hand, PLD activity is also required to generate short RNA fragments that occupy the second binding pocket of TLR7. While PLD3 and PLD4 exert comparable catalytic activities, the almost exclusive expression of PLD4 in pDCs suggests that PLD4 is the relevant exonuclease for pDC activation in the human system. Biochemical and structural studies of PLD3 and PLD4 show that these enzymes form homodimers with two ligand binding sites. Dimer formation is critical for catalytic activity, and previously identified disease-associated mutants fail to form stable dimers. In conclusion, our data provide a mechanistic basis for the recognition of RNA fragments by TLR7.

Project description:The Retinoblastoma-like pocket proteins p130 and p107 act as gatekeepers of the cell cycle through their activity within the DREAM (Dp/Rb-like/E2F/MuvB) transcriptional repressor complex. The goal of this study was to address how the pocket protein contributes to DREAM complex assembly and function on chromatin by utilizing a protein null mutant of the only C. elegans pocket protein LIN-35. We performed ChIP-seq of C. elegans DRM subunits in wild-type and lin-35 null late embryos to assess the effect on their chromatin localization following loss of LIN-35.
