Post Transcriptional Regulation

UV-cross-linking and RNase protection, combined with high-throughput sequencing, have provided global maps of RNA sites bound by individual proteins or ribosomes. Using a stringent purification protocol, UV-CLIP (UV-cross-linking and immunoprecipitation) was able to identify intronic and exonic sites bound by splicing regulators in mouse brain tissue. Ribosome profiling has been used to quantify ribosome density on budding yeast mRNAs under different environmental conditions. Post-transcriptional regulation in neurons requires high spatial and temporal precision, as is evident from the role of localized translational control in synaptic plasticity. It remains to be seen if the high-throughput methods can be applied quantitatively to study the dynamics of RNP (ribonucleoprotein) remodelling in specific neuronal populations during the neurodegenerative process. It is certain, however, that applications of new biochemical techniques followed by high-throughput sequencing will continue to provide important insights into the mechanisms of neuronal post-transcriptional regulation.

The recent development of high-throughput technologies based on RNA sequencing has allowed a better description of the role of post-transcriptional regulation in gene expression. In particular, the development of degradome approaches based on the capture of 5′monophosphate decay intermediates allows the discovery of a new decay pathway called co-translational mRNA decay. Thanks to these approaches, ribosome dynamics could now be revealed by analysis of 5′P reads accumulation. However, library preparation could be difficult to set-up for non-specialists. Here, we present a fast and efficient 5′P degradome library preparation for Arabidopsis samples. Our protocol was designed without commercial kit and gel purification and can be easily done in one working day. We demonstrated the robustness and the reproducibility of our protocol. Finally, we present the bioinformatic reads-outs necessary to assess library quality control.

The Impact

The global COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in over 2.2 million deaths. Disease outcomes range from asymptomatic to severe with, so far, minimal genotypic change to the virus so understanding the host response is paramount. Transcriptomics has become incredibly important in understanding host-pathogen interactions; however, post-transcriptional regulation plays an important role in infection and immunity through translation and mRNA stability, allowing tight control over potent host responses by both the host and the invading virus. Here, we apply ribosome profiling to assess post-transcriptional regulation of host genes during SARS-CoV-2 infection of a human lung epithelial cell line (Calu-3). We have identified numerous transcription factors (JUN, ZBTB20, ATF3, HIVEP2 and EGR1) as well as select antiviral cytokine genes, namely IFNB1, IFNL1,2 and 3, IL-6 and CCL5, that are restricted at the post-transcriptional level by SARS-CoV-2 infection and discuss the impact this would have on the host response to infection. This early phase restriction of antiviral transcripts in the lungs may allow high viral load and consequent immune dysregulation typically seen in SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Post Transcriptional Regulation

Populus trichocarpa (P. trichocarpa) is a model tree for the investigation of wood formation. In recent years, researchers have generated a large number of high-throughput sequencing data in P. trichocarpa. However, no comprehensive database that provides multi-omics associations for the investigation of secondary growth in response to diverse stresses has been reported. Therefore, we developed a public repository that presents comprehensive measurements of gene expression and post-transcriptional regulation by integrating 144 RNA-Seq, 33 ChIP-seq, and six single-molecule real-time (SMRT) isoform sequencing (Iso-seq) libraries prepared from tissues subjected to different stresses. All the samples from different studies were analyzed to obtain gene expression, co-expression network, and differentially expressed genes (DEG) using unified parameters, which allowed comparison of results from different studies and treatments. In addition to gene expression, we also identified and deposited pre-processed data about alternative splicing (AS), alternative polyadenylation (APA) and alternative transcription initiation (ATI). The post-transcriptional regulation, differential expression, and co-expression network datasets were integrated into a new P. trichocarpa Stem Differentiating Xylem (PSDX) database, which further highlights gene families of RNA-binding proteins and stress-related genes. The PSDX also provides tools for data query, visualization, a genome browser, and the BLAST option for sequence-based query. Much of the data is also available for bulk download. The availability of PSDX contributes to the research related to the secondary growth in response to stresses in P. trichocarpa, which will provide new insights that can be useful for the improvement of stress tolerance in woody plants.

Post Transcriptional Regulation

Abstract Post-transcriptional processing of RNAs plays important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. These processes can be precisely controlled by a series of RNA binding proteins and cotranscriptionally regulated by transcription factors as well as histone modifications. With the rapid development of high-throughput sequencing techniques, multiomics data have been broadly used to study the mechanisms underlying the important biological processes. However, how to use these high-throughput sequencing data to elucidate the fundamental regulatory roles of post-transcriptional processes is still of great challenge. This review summarizes the regulatory mechanisms of post-transcriptional processes and the general principles and approaches to dissect these mechanisms by integrating multiomics data as well as public resources.

Post Transcriptional Regulation

Unr (upstream of N-ras) is a eukaryotic RNA-binding protein that has a number of roles in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Originally identified as an activator of internal initiation of picornavirus translation, it has since been shown to act as an activator and inhibitor of cellular translation and as a positive and negative regulator of mRNA stability, regulating cellular processes such as mitosis and apoptosis. The different post-transcriptional functions of Unr depend on the identity of its mRNA and protein partners and can vary with cell type and changing cellular conditions. Recent high-throughput analyses of RNA–protein interactions indicate that Unr binds to a large subset of cellular mRNAs, suggesting that Unr may play a wider role in translational responses to cellular signals than previously thought.
