N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common internal modification in eukaryotic mRNA and associated with numerous cellular processes in health and disease. Up- and down-regulation of its "writer" or "eraser" proteins alter the global m6A level; however, modifying distinct m6A sites has remained elusive. We genetically fused the dioxygenase FTO responsible for m6A demethylation to RCas9 as an RNA-targeting module. The resulting RCas9-FTO retained demethylation activity and bound to RNA in a sequence-specific...
Eukaryotic ribosomal protein L13a is a member of the conserved universal ribosomal uL13 protein family. Structurally, L13a is distinguished from its prokaryotic counterparts by the presence of an ~55 amino acid-long carboxy-terminal α-helical extension. The importance of these evolved residues in the carboxy-terminal extension for mammalian ribosome biogenesis as well as L13a's extraribosomal function in GAIT ( interferon-activated inhibitor of translation) complex-mediated translation silencing...
There is increasing evidence from yeast to humans that pre-mRNA splicing occurs mainly cotranscriptionally, such that splicing and transcription are functionally coupled. Currently, there is little insight into the contribution of the core transcription elongation machinery to cotranscriptional spliceosome assembly and pre-mRNA splicing. Spt5 is a member of the core transcription elongation machinery and an essential protein, whose absence in budding yeast causes defects in pre-mRNA splicing. To...
Alternative splicing of pre-mRNA is a major mechanism to diversify protein functionality in metazoans from a limited number of genes. The Drosophila melanogaster Down syndrome cell adhesion molecule (Dscam) gene, which is important for neuronal wiring and phagocytosis of bacteria, can generate up to 38,016 isoforms by mutually exclusive alternative splicing in four clusters of variable exons. However, it is not understood how a specific exon is chosen from the many variables and how variable exons...
Argonaute (Ago) proteins interact with various binding partners and play a pivotal role in microRNA (miRNA)-mediated silencing pathways. By utilizing immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry to determine cytoplasmic Ago2 protein complexes in mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs), we identified a putative RNA-binding protein FAM120A (also known as OSSA/C9ORF10) as an Ago2 interacting protein. Individual nucleotide resolution cross-linking and immunoprecipitation (iCLIP) analysis revealed that...
Polypyrimidine tract-binding proteins (PTBPs) are RNA binding proteins that regulate a number of posttranscriptional events. Human PTBP1 transits between the nucleus and cytoplasm and is thought to regulate RNA processes in both. However, information about PTBP1 mRNA isoforms and regulation of PTPB1 expression remains incomplete. Here we mapped the major PTBP1 mRNA isoforms in HEK293T cells and identified alternative 5' and 3' untranslated regions (5'-UTRs, 3'-UTRs), as well as alternative splicing...
In the present work, 67 crystal structures of the aptamer domains of RNA riboswitches are chosen for analysis of the structure and strength of hydrogen bonding (pairing) interactions between nucleobases constituting the aptamer binding pockets and the bound ligands. A total of 80 unique base:ligand hydrogen-bonded pairs containing at least two hydrogen bonds were identified through visual inspection. Classification of these contacts in terms of the interacting edge of the aptamer nucleobase revealed...
H/ACA small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins (snoRNPs) pseudouridylate RNA in eukaryotes and archaea. They target many RNAs site-specifically through base-pairing interactions between H/ACA guide and substrate RNA. Besides ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and small nuclear RNA (snRNA), H/ACA snoRNPs are thought to also modify messenger RNA (mRNA) with potential impacts on gene expression. However, the base pairing between known target RNAs and H/ACA guide RNAs varies widely in nature, and therefore the rules governing...
Methylation of histone H3 on lysine 79 (H3K79) by DOT1L is associated with actively transcribed genes. Earlier, we described that DOT-1.1, the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of mammalian DOT1L, cooperates with the chromatin-binding protein ZFP-1 (AF10 homolog) to negatively modulate transcription of highly and widely expressed target genes. Also, the reduction of ZFP-1 levels has consistently been associated with lower efficiency of RNA interference (RNAi) triggered by exogenous double-stranded RNA...
Proteins bind mRNA through their entire life cycle from transcription to degradation. We analyzed c-Myc mRNA protein interactors in vivo using the HyPR-MS method to capture the crosslinked mRNA by hybridization and then analyzed the bound proteins using mass spectrometry proteomics. Using HyPR-MS, 229 c-Myc mRNA-binding proteins were identified, confirming previously proposed interactors, suggesting new interactors, and providing information related to the roles and pathways known to involve c-Myc....
The precise spatial and temporal control of gene expression requires the coordinated action of genomic cis-regulatory elements (CREs), including transcriptional enhancers. However, our knowledge of enhancers in plants remains rudimentary and only a few plant enhancers have been experimentally defined. Here, we screened the Arabidopsis thaliana genome and identified >1900 unique candidate CREs that carry the genomic signatures of mammalian enhancers. These were termed putative enhancer-like elements...
The tRNA m1R9 methyltransferase (Trm10) family is conserved throughout Eukarya and Archaea. Despite the presence of a single Trm10 gene in Archaea and most single-celled eukaryotes, metazoans encode up to three homologs of Trm10. Several disease states correlate with a deficiency in the human homolog TRMT10A, despite the presence of another cytoplasmic enzyme, TRMT10B. Here we investigate these phenomena and demonstrate that human TRMT10A (hTRMT10A) and human TRMT10B (hTRMT10B) are not biochemically...
Polyadenylation at the 3'-end is a major regulator of messenger RNA and its length is known to affect nuclear export, stability, and translation, among others. Only recently have strategies emerged that allow for genome-wide poly(A) length assessment. These methods identify genes connected to poly(A) tail measurements indirectly by short-read alignment to genetic 3'-ends. Concurrently, Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) established full-length isoform-specific RNA sequencing containing the entire...
