Analyzing (Re)Capping of mRNA Using Transcript Specific 5' End Sequencing

[Abstract]  The 5′ cap is a ubiquitous feature of eukaryotic mRNAs. It is added in the nucleus onto newly synthesized pre-mRNA, and in the cytoplasm onto mRNAs after decapping or endonuclease cleavage. Cytoplasmic recapping can occur after loss of the cap at the native 5′ end, or downstream within the body of the mRNA. The identification and location of recapping events is key to understanding the functional consequences of this process. Here we present an approach that addresses this problem, using the Lexogen TeloPrime® cDNA synthesis kit to tag recapped 5′ ends. TeloPrime uses a proprietary DNA ligase to add a double stranded DNA oligonucleotide onto the 3′ end of cDNA while it is base paired with mRNA. Specificity for capped ends is obtained by the oligonucleotide having an unpaired C ... [摘要]  [摘要]5′cap是真核mRNAs普遍存在的特征。它被添加到新合成的pre-mRNA的细胞核中,并在去盖或核酸内切酶切割后加入到mRNAs的细胞质中。细胞质重拾可发生在5′端或mRNA体下游的cap缺失后。识别和定位重述事件是理解该过程的功能后果的关键。这里我们提出了一种解决这个问题的方法,使用Lexogen TeloPrime®cDNA合成试剂盒来标记重述的5′端。TeloPrime使用一种专有的DNA连接酶,在cDNA的3′端加入一个双链DNA寡核苷酸,同时与mRNA碱基配对。寡核苷酸在mRNA 5′端有一个与m7G弱碱基配对的不成对C残基。然后用引物对附加的寡核苷酸和感兴趣的mRNA进行双链cDNA的PCR扩增。得到的产物是凝胶纯化和直接测序(如果是单个带)或克隆和测序。连接的寡核苷酸和靶mRNA连接处的序列提供了cap在相应转录物上的位置。此方法适用于所有封顶转录本。它可以与Sanger测序一起用于少量的转录物,也可以用于Illumina库测序。

[背景]N7-甲基鸟苷帽是所有真核mRNAs的一个显著特征。与cap结合的蛋白质在mRNA生命周期的各个阶段发挥作用,包括核加工、输出、翻译和mRNA衰变。5′cap以共转录方式添加到所有mRNAs中,并开发了许多全基因组技术(例如,基因表达的Capped分析,或CAGE)(Morioka等人,2020年),这些技术利用末端末端的鉴定来标记转录起始位点。除了标记转录起始位点外,约25%的笼状标签映射到剪接内含子的下游(Djebali等人,2012年)。生物化学基础的证据来自我们实验室2009年的鉴定:一种细胞质复合体能够将N7甲基鸟苷帽恢复到5′-单磷酸末端的转录物上,但不能恢复到5′-羟基末端的转录物上(Otsuka等人,2009年)。细胞质封顶由一种复合酶催化,包括封盖酶(RNGTT)、帽甲基转移酶(RNMT)及其激活亚单位(RAM),以及一种将去盖转录物的5′-单磷酸末端转化为5′-二磷酸底物以进行GMP添加的激酶(Trotman和Schoenberg,2019)。我们的早期工作是基于在GMP添加步骤中阻断细胞质封盖的显性负型封盖酶的使用。该蛋白的表达导致出现许多未封顶的转录本,其末端使用5'-种族定位到下游笼状标签附近(Kiss等人,2015年;Berger等人,2019年)。虽然令人鼓舞,但这种方法有三个主要缺点:a)它需要分离带帽和未封顶的rna,b)它假设未封顶的转录本保持足够稳定,可以被检测到,以及c)它假设以这种方式检测到的未封顶末端经历了有限的额外的核外溶核修剪。 ...

[Abstract]  Methyltransferases that methylate the guanine-N7 position of the mRNA 5’ cap structure are ubiquitous among eukaryotes and commonly encoded by viruses. Here we provide a detailed protocol for the biochemical analysis of RNA cap methyltransferase activity of biological samples. This assay involves incubation of cap-methyltransferase-containing samples with a [32P]G-capped RNA substrate and S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) to produce RNAs with N7-methylated caps. The extent of cap methylation is then determined by P1 nuclease digestion, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and phosphorimaging. The protocol described here includes additional steps for generating the [32P]G-capped RNA substrate and for preparing nuclear and cytoplasmic extracts from mammalian cells. This assay is ...

[Abstract]  microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs, regulating most if not all, biological processes in eukaryotic organisms. miRNAs are initially processed from primary transcripts (pri-miRNAs) to produce miRNA precursors (pre-miRNAs), that are further processed into miRNA and its complementary strands (miRNA/*). In Arabidopsis, and possibly other plants, the processing from pri-miRNAs to pre-miRNAs and from pre-miRNAs to miRNA/* are both implemented through Dicer-like 1 (DCL1) complexes. Recently, we demonstrated isolation of DCL1 complexes of unprecedented quality from in planta. We further successfully reconstituted DCL1 cleavage assays in vitro that were able to fully recapitulate in vivo miRNA biogenesis. Here we provide a detailed protocol of DCL1 ... [摘要]  微小RNA(miRNA)是小的非编码RNA,其调节真核生物中的大多数(如果不是全部)生物过程。 miRNA最初从初级转录物(pri-miRNA)加工以产生miRNA前体(前-miRNA),其进一步加工成miRNA及其互补链(miRNA/*)。在拟南芥和可能的其他植物中,从pri-miRNA到pre-miRNA和从pre-miRNA到miRNA/*的加工都通过Dicer样1(DCL1)复合物实现。最近,我们证明了从植物中以前的质量的DCL1复合物的分离。我们进一步成功地重建了能够完全重现体内 miRNA生物发生的DCL1切割测定。在这里我们提供DCL1重建测定的详细协议。该方案包括三个主要部分(图1):1)pri-miRNA和pre-miRNA转录物的制备(方法A-C); 2)通过免疫沉淀(IP)纯化来自本塞姆氏烟草(本塞姆氏烟草)的重组拟南芥DCL1机器(程序D和E);和3)使用分离的DCL1复合物(步骤F)在放射性同位素标记的pri-miRNA或pre-miRNA的体外处理。这是我们的愿望,协议是RNAi社区研究机械问题或开发RNA沉默技术的强大工具。
