  • Role of Cajal Bodies and Nucleolus in the Maturation of the U1 Snrnp in Arabidopsis
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by PubMed Central Role of Cajal Bodies and Nucleolus in the Maturation of the U1 snRNP in Arabidopsis Zdravko J. Lorkovic´*, Andrea Barta Max F. Perutz Laboratories, Department of Medical Biochemistry, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria Abstract Background: The biogenesis of spliceosomal snRNPs takes place in both the cytoplasm where Sm core proteins are added and snRNAs are modified at the 59 and 39 termini and in the nucleus where snRNP-specific proteins associate. U1 snRNP consists of U1 snRNA, seven Sm proteins and three snRNP-specific proteins, U1-70K, U1A, and U1C. It has been shown previously that after import to the nucleus U2 and U4/U6 snRNP-specific proteins first appear in Cajal bodies (CB) and then in splicing speckles. In addition, in cells grown under normal conditions U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNAs/snRNPs are abundant in CBs. Therefore, it has been proposed that the final assembly of these spliceosomal snRNPs takes place in this nuclear compartment. In contrast, U1 snRNA in both animal and plant cells has rarely been found in this nuclear compartment. Methodology/Principal Findings: Here, we analysed the subnuclear distribution of Arabidopsis U1 snRNP-specific proteins fused to GFP or mRFP in transiently transformed Arabidopsis protoplasts. Irrespective of the tag used, U1-70K was exclusively found in the nucleus, whereas U1A and U1C were equally distributed between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. In the nucleus all three proteins localised to CBs and nucleoli although to different extent. Interestingly, we also found that the appearance of the three proteins in nuclear speckles differ significantly.

Pseudouridylation and 2’-O-methylation are the most abundant types of RNA modifications. They are mediated by modification guide RNAs, also known as small nucleolar (sno)RNAs and small Cajal body-specific (sca)RNAs. We used yeast and vertebrate cells to test guide activities predicted for a number of snoRNAs, based on their regions of complementarity with rRNAs. We showed that human SNORA24 is a genuine guide RNA for 18S-Ψ609, despite some non- canonical base-pairing with its target. At the same time, we found quite a few snoRNAs that have the ability to base-pair with rRNAs and can induce predicted modifications in artificial substrate RNAs, but do not modify the same target sequence within endogenous rRNA molecules. Furthermore, certain fragments of rRNAs can be modified by the endogenous yeast modification machinery when inserted into an artificial backbone RNA, even though the same sequences are not modified in endogenous yeast rRNAs.

Although RNA has long been proposed to play a global role in organizing nuclear structure, 5 exploring the role of RNA in shaping nuclear structure has remained a challenge because no existing 6 methods can simultaneously measure RNA-RNA, RNA-DNA, and DNA-DNA contacts within 3D 7 structures.

A decade ago, the genome was seen as a linear arrangement of separated individual genes which are predominantly protein-coding, with a small set of ancient non-coding “house- keeping” RNAs such as tRNA and rRNA dating all the way back to an RNA-World. How- ever, in contrast to this simple views more recent studies reveal a much more complex genomic picture. The ENCODE Pilot Project [239], the mouse cDNA project FANTOM [151], and a series of other large scale transcriptome studies, e.g. [202], leave no doubt that the mammalian transcriptome is characterized by a complex mosaic of overlapping, bi-directional transcripts and a plethora of non-protein coding transcripts arising from the same locus, Fig. 1.1. This newly discovered complexity is not unique to mammals. Similar high-throughput studies in invertebrate animals [152, 93] and plants [135] demonstrate the generality of the mammalian genome organization among higher eukaryotes.

  • RNA 2 -O-Methylation (Nm) Modification in Human Diseases
    G C A T T A C G G C A T genes Review RNA 20-O-Methylation (Nm) Modification in Human Diseases Dilyana G. Dimitrova, Laure Teysset and Clément Carré * Sorbonne Université, Institut de Biologie Paris Seine, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Transgenerational Epigenetics & Small RNA Biology, Laboratoire de Biologie du Développement, 75005 Paris, France; [email protected] (D.G.D.); [email protected] (L.T.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 December 2018; Accepted: 30 January 2019; Published: 5 February 2019 Abstract: Nm (20-O-methylation) is one of the most common modifications in the RNA world. It has the potential to influence the RNA molecules in multiple ways, such as structure, stability, and interactions, and to play a role in various cellular processes from epigenetic gene regulation, through translation to self versus non-self recognition. Yet, building scientific knowledge on the Nm matter has been hampered for a long time by the challenges in detecting and mapping this modification. Today, with the latest advancements in the area, more and more Nm sites are discovered on RNAs (tRNA, rRNA, mRNA, and small non-coding RNA) and linked to normal or pathological conditions. This review aims to synthesize the Nm-associated human diseases known to date and to tackle potential indirect links to some other biological defects. Keywords: RNA modifications; 20-O-methylation (Nm); human diseases; epitranscriptomics 1. Introduction 1.1. What is Nm/20-O-Methylation? 20-O-methylation (or Nm, where N stands for any nucleotide) is a co- or post-transcriptional 0 modification of RNA, where a methyl group (–CH3) is added to the 2 hydroxyl (–OH) of the ribose moiety (Figure1).
