SGs form when stress-activated pathways stall translation initiation but allow elongation and termina- tion to occur normally, resulting in a sudden excess of mRNPs that are spatially condensed into discrete foci by protein:protein, protein:RNA, and RNA:RNA interactions. In contrast, PBs can exist in the absence of stress, when specific factors promote mRNA deadenylation, condensation, and sequestration from the translational machinery. The formation and dis- solution of SGs and PBs reflect changes in messenger RNA (mRNA) metabolism and allow cells to modulate the proteome and/or mediate life or death decisions during changing environmental conditions. ight control of messenger RNA (mRNA) pro- non-membrane-enclosed subcellular compart- Tcessing, trafficking, degradation, and transla- ments, termed RNA granules, plays critical roles tion are important in regulating gene expression. in mRNA metabolism (Shin and Brangwynne These processes are controlled by specific RNA- 2017).

Abstract Strategies have not been available until recently to uncover interacting protein networks specific to key cell types, their subcellular compartments, and their major regulators during complex in vivo events. Here we apply BioID2 proximity labeling to capture protein networks acting within cardiomyocytes during a key model of innate heart regeneration in zebrafish. Transgenic zebrafish expressing a promiscuous BirA2 localized to the entire myocardial cell or membrane compartment were generated, each identifying unique proteomes in adult cardiomyocytes that became altered during regeneration.

Read Full License Page 1/49 Abstract Proximity labeling (PL) with genetically-targeted promiscuous enzymes has emerged as a powerful tool for unbiased proteome discovery. By combining the spatiotemporal specicity of PL with methods for functional protein enrichment, it should be possible to map specic protein subclasses within distinct compartments of living cells. Here we demonstrate this capability for RNA binding proteins (RBPs), by combining peroxidase-based PL with organic-aqueous phase separation of crosslinked protein-RNA complexes (“APEX-PS”). We validated APEX-PS by mapping nuclear RBPs, then applied it to uncover the RBPomes of two unpuriable subcompartments - the nucleolus and the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM). At the OMM, we discovered the RBP SYNJ2BP, which retains specic nuclear-encoded mitochondrial mRNAs during translation stress, to promote their local translation and import of protein products into the mitochondrion during stress recovery. APEX-PS is a versatile tool for compartment- specic RBP discovery and expands the scope of PL to functional protein mapping. Introduction RNA-protein interactions are pervasive in both transient and stable macromolecular complexes underlying transcription, translation and stress response 1, 2.

The enzymatic tags are being upgraded to improve temporal and spatial resolution and obtain faster catalytic dynamics and higher catalytic efciency. In vivo application of PL integrated with other state of the art techniques has recently been adapted in live animals and plants, allowing questions to be addressed that were previously inaccessible. It is timely to summarize the current state of PL-dependent interactome studies and their potential applications. We will focus on in vivo uses of newer ver- sions of PL and highlight critical considerations for successful in vivo PL experiments that will provide novel insights into the protein interactome in the context of human diseases.

Received: 14 July 2020; Accepted: 26 August 2020; Published: 30 August 2020 Abstract: RNA granules, such as stress granules and processing bodies, can balance the storage, degradation, and translation of mRNAs in diverse eukaryotic organisms. The sessile nature of plants demands highly versatile strategies to respond to environmental fluctuations. In this review, we discuss recent findings of the dynamics and functions of these RNA granules in plants undergoing developmental reprogramming or responding to environmental stresses. Special foci include the dynamic assembly, disassembly, and regulatory roles of these RNA granules in determining the fate of mRNAs. Keywords: stress granules; processing bodies; mRNA decay; translation 1. Introduction A healthy balance of mRNA destinies, including decay, translation, and sequestration, is crucial for plants to optimize growth and development and combat biotic/abiotic environmental stresses. A plethora of mechanisms are responsible for mRNAs destined for degradation, including de-adenylation of the polyA tail and mRNA decapping followed by 50 to 30 decay, 30 to 50 mRNA decay, and co-translational decay [1,2].

Ting 1,4,5,6 ✉ Many biological processes are executed and regulated through the molecular interactions of proteins and nucleic acids. Proximity labeling (PL) is a technology for tagging the endogenous interaction partners of specific protein ‘baits’, via genetic fusion to promiscuous enzymes that catalyze the generation of diffusible reactive species in living cells. Tagged molecules that interact with baits can then be enriched and identified by mass spectrometry or nucleic acid sequencing. Here we review the development of PL technologies and highlight studies that have applied PL to the discovery and analysis of molecular interac- tions.

During Drosophila oogenesis, intercellular bridges (referred to as ring canals) have a dynamic actin cytoskeleton that drives their expansion to a diameter of 10mm. While multiple proteins have been identified as components of ring canals (RCs), we lack a basic understanding of how RC proteins interact together to form and regulate the RC cytoskeleton. We optimized a procedure for proximity-dependent biotinylation in live tissue using the APEX enzyme to interrogate the RC interactome. APEX was fused to four different RC components (RC-APEX baits) and 55 unique high-confidence preys were identified. The RC-APEX baits produced almost entirely distinct interactomes that included both known RC proteins as well as uncharacterized proteins. The proximity ligation assay was used to validate close-proximity interactions between the RC-APEX baits and their respective preys.
