Project description:Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are one of the most conserved components of protein synthesis machinery. An effective strategy for microbes to defend against viruses or competitors is to employ anticodon nucleases (ACNases) to deplete essential tRNAs and thereby shut off global protein synthesis, but this strategy has not been observed in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we report that human SAMD9 is a virus-activatable ACNase that specifically depletes phenylalanine tRNA (tRNAPhe), causing codon-specific ribosomal pausing and inducing stress signaling. SAMD9 ACNase can be activated by poxvirus infection or by SAMD9 mutations associated with a spectrum of developmental or immunological disorders, implicating tRNAPhe deficiency as a major toxic effect in these human diseases and suggesting a new therapeutic strategy. The specificity of the ACNase, located to an N-terminal effector domain of SAMD9, is largely determined by a eukaryotic tRNAPhe specific 2’-O-methylation at the wobble position, making eukaryotic tRNAPhe a universal but specific target for SAMD9. The SAMD9 ACNase differs from the microbial ACNases in structure and substrate specificity, suggesting convergent evolution resulted in a universal immune defense strategy targeting tRNAs.

Project description:As a defense strategy against viruses or competitors, some microbes employ anticodon nucleases (ACNases) to deplete essential tRNAs, effectively halting global protein synthesis. However, this mechanism has not been observed in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we report that human SAMD9 is an ACNase that specifically cleaves phenylalanine tRNA (tRNAPhe), resulting in codon-specific ribosomal pausing and stress signaling. While SAMD9 ACNase activity is normally latent in cells, it can be activated by poxvirus infection or rendered constitutively active by SAMD9 mutations associated with various human disorders, revealing tRNAPhe depletion as an antiviral mechanism and a pathogenic condition in SAMD9 disorders. We identified the N-terminal effector domain of SAMD9 as the ACNase, with substrate specificity primarily determined by a eukaryotic tRNAPhe-specific 2’-O-methylation at the wobble position, making virtually all eukaryotic tRNAPhe susceptible to SAMD9 cleavage. Notably, the structure and substrate specificity of SAMD9 ACNase differ from known microbial ACNases, suggesting convergent evolution of a common immune defense strategy targeting tRNAs.

Project description:The precise interplay between the mRNA codon and the tRNA anticodon is crucial for ensuring efficient and accurate translation by the ribosome. The insertion of RNA nucleobase derivatives in the mRNA allowed us to modulate the stability of the codon-anticodon interaction in the decoding site of bacterial and eukaryotic ribosomes, allowing an in-depth analysis of codon recognition. In addition to a quantitative analysis of the protein products that are formed in dependence of the modified codons, the interpretation of these RNA nucleobase derivatives by the ribosomal decoding site was also determined. For each modification, the translated peptides from the bacterial and eukaryotic systems were purified and analyzed by mass spectrometry.

Project description:The goal of this study is to use RNA-sequencing to profile the transcriptional changes in A549 cells with SAMD9 overexpression by plasmid transfection. Specifically, we were interested in determining the interferons and chemokines induced by SAMD9 overexpression. We observed that each of the type III interferons and several pro-inflammatory cytokines such as CCL5 and CXCL10 were among the top induced genes following SAMD9 overexpression.

Project description:Transfer RNA (tRNA) modifications enhance the efficiency, specificity and fidelity of translation in all organisms. The anticodon modification mcm5s2U34 is required for normal growth and stress resistance in yeast; mutants lacking this modification have numerous phenotypes. Mutations in the homologous human genes are linked to neurological disease. The yeast phenotypes can be ameliorated by overexpression of specific tRNAs, suggesting that the modifications are necessary for efficient translation of specific codons. We determined the in vivo ribosome distributions at single codon resolution in yeast strains lacking mcm5s2U. We found accumulations at AAA, CAA, and GAA codons, suggesting that translation is slow when these codons are in the ribosomal A site, but these changes appeared too small to affect protein output. Instead, we observed activation of the GCN4-mediated stress response by a non- canonical pathway. Thus, loss of mcm5s2U causes global effects on gene expression due to perturbation of cellular signaling. WT yeast and mutants lacking anticodon tRNA modifications were grown in YPD, and subjected to ribosome footprint profiling (ribo-seq) and RNA-seq of poly-A selected RNA. Dataset contains biological replicates for WT, Δncs6 and Δuba4. Technical replicates were also performed for all RNA-seq datasets (using a different poly-A selection method).

Project description:Recently, heterozygous germline mutations were identified in sterile alpha motif (SAM) domain-9 (SAMD9) and its paralog, SAMD9-like (SAMD9L) in children with monosomy 7 mediated MDS. Expression of SAMD9 and SAMD9L is induced by interferons and other inflammatory stimuli and causes reduced cell division and cell growth and most pathogenic mutations found in patients dramatically enhance these effects. The goal of this project is to identify the interactome of SAMD9 and SAMD9L to better understand their role in cell cycle and proliferation regulation

Project description:SAMD9 and SAMD9L (SAMD9/9L) are antiviral factors and myeloid tumor suppressors. They are critical for innate immune defense against several viruses, particularly the poxviruses. SAMD9/9L mutations with a gain-of-function (GoF) in inhibiting cell growth cause multisystem developmental disorders including many pediatric myelodysplastic syndromes. Predicted to be multi-domain proteins with an architecture like that of the NOD-like receptors, SAMD9/9L molecular functions and domain structures are largely unknown. Here, we identified a SAMD9/9L effector domain that functions by binding to double-stranded nucleic acids (dsNA) and determined the crystal structure of the domain in complex with DNA. Aided with precise mutations that differentially perturb dsNA binding, we demonstrated that the antiviral and antiproliferative functions of the wild-type and GoF SAMD9/9L variants rely on dsNA binding by the effector domain. Furthermore, we showed that GoF variants inhibit global protein synthesis, reduce translation elongation, and induce proteotoxic stress response, which all require dsNA binding by the effector domain. The identification of the structure and function of a SAMD9/9L effector domain provides a therapeutic target for SAMD9/9L associated human diseases.
