Maturation of the 90S pre-ribosome requires Mrd1 dependent U3 snoRNA and 35S pre-rRNA structural rearrangements.

In eukaryotes, ribosome biogenesis requires folding and assembly of the precursor rRNA (pre-rRNA) with a large number of proteins and snoRNPs into huge RNA-protein complexes. In spite of intense genetic, biochemical and high-resolution cryo-EM studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, information about the structure of the 35S pre-rRNA is limited. To overcome this, we performed high-throughput SHAPE chemical probing on the 35S pre-rRNA within 90S pre-ribosomes.

High-throughput RNA structure probing reveals critical folding events during early 60S ribosome assembly in yeast.

While the protein composition of various yeast 60S ribosomal subunit assembly intermediates has been studied in detail, little is known about ribosomal RNA (rRNA) structural rearrangements that take place during early 60S assembly steps. Using a high-throughput RNA structure probing method, we provide nucleotide resolution insights into rRNA structural rearrangements during nucleolar 60S assembly. Our results suggest that many rRNA-folding steps, such as folding of 5.

Linker 2 of the eukaryotic pre-ribosomal processing factor Mrd1p is an essential interdomain functionally coupled to upstream RNA Binding Domain 2 (RBD2).

Ribosome synthesis is an essential process in all cells. In Sacharomyces cerevisiae, the precursor rRNA, 35S pre-rRNA, is folded and assembled into a 90S pre-ribosomal complex. The 40S ribosomal subunit is processed from the pre-ribosomal complex.

Integration of mRNP formation and export.

Expression of protein-coding genes in eukaryotes relies on the coordinated action of many sophisticated molecular machineries. Transcription produces precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) and the active gene provides an environment in which the pre-mRNAs are processed, folded, and assembled into RNA-protein (RNP) complexes. The dynamic pre-mRNPs incorporate the growing transcript, proteins, and the processing machineries, as well as the specific protein marks left after processing that are essential for export and the cytoplasmic fate of the mRNPs.

Intranuclear binding in space and time of exon junction complex and NXF1 to premRNPs/mRNPs in vivo.

Eukaryotic gene expression requires the ordered association of numerous factors with precursor messenger RNAs (premRNAs)/messenger RNAs (mRNAs) to achieve efficiency and regulation. Here, we use the Balbiani ring (BR) genes to demonstrate the temporal and spatial association of the exon junction complex (EJC) core with gene-specific endogenous premRNAs and mRNAs. The EJC core components bind cotranscriptionally to BR premRNAs during or very rapidly after splicing.

The Balbiani Ring Story: Synthesis, Assembly, Processing, and Transport of Specific Messenger RNA-Protein Complexes.

Eukaryotic gene expression is the result of the integrated action of multimolecular machineries. These machineries associate with gene transcripts, often already nascent precursor messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs). They rebuild the transcript and convey properties allowing the processed transcript, the mRNA, to be exported to the cytoplasm, quality controlled, stored, translated, and degraded.

The Chironomus tentans genome sequence and the organization of the Balbiani ring genes.

Background: The polytene nuclei of the dipteran Chironomus tentans (Ch. tentans) with their Balbiani ring (BR) genes constitute an exceptional model system for studies of the expression of endogenous eukaryotic genes. Here, we report the first draft genome of Ch.

Mechanisms of mRNA export.

Release of properly processed and assembled mRNPs from the actively transcribing genes, movement of the mRNPs through the interchromatin and interaction with the Nuclear Pore Complexes, leading to cytoplasmic export, are essential steps of eukaryotic gene expression. Here, we review these intranuclear gene expression steps.

Multiple RNA interactions position Mrd1 at the site of the small subunit pseudoknot within the 90S pre-ribosome.

Ribosomal subunit biogenesis in eukaryotes is a complex multistep process. Mrd1 is an essential and conserved small (40S) ribosomal subunit synthesis factor that is required for early cleavages in the 35S pre-ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Yeast Mrd1 contains five RNA-binding domains (RBDs), all of which are necessary for optimal function of the protein.

Evolutionary conservation of the ribosomal biogenesis factor Rbm19/Mrd1: implications for function.

Ribosome biogenesis in eukaryotes requires coordinated folding and assembly of a pre-rRNA into sequential pre-rRNA-protein complexes in which chemical modifications and RNA cleavages occur. These processes require many small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and proteins. Rbm19/Mrd1 is one such protein that is built from multiple RNA-binding domains (RBDs).

Nucleocytoplasmic mRNP export is an integral part of mRNP biogenesis.

Nucleocytoplasmic export and biogenesis of mRNPs are closely coupled. At the gene, concomitant with synthesis of the pre-mRNA, the transcription machinery, hnRNP proteins, processing, quality control and export machineries cooperate to release processed and export competent mRNPs. After diffusion through the interchromatin space, the mRNPs are translocated through the nuclear pore complex and released into the cytoplasm.

Exclusion of mRNPs and ribosomal particles from a thin zone beneath the nuclear envelope revealed upon inhibition of transport.

We have studied the nucleocytoplasmic transport of a specific messenger RNP (mRNP) particle, named Balbiani ring (BR) granule, and ribosomal RNP (rRNP) particles in the salivary glands of the dipteran Chironomus tentans. The passage of the RNPs through the nuclear pore complex (NPC) was inhibited with the nucleoporin-binding wheat germ agglutinin, and the effects were examined by electron microscopy. BR mRNPs bound to the nuclear basket increased in number, while BR mRNPs translocating through the central channel decreased, suggesting that the initiation of translocation proper had been inhibited.

Mrd1p is required for release of base-paired U3 snoRNA within the preribosomal complex.

In eukaryotes, ribosomes are made from precursor rRNA (pre-rRNA) and ribosomal proteins in a maturation process that requires a large number of snoRNPs and processing factors. A fundamental problem is how the coordinated and productive folding of the pre-rRNA and assembly of successive pre-rRNA-protein complexes is achieved cotranscriptionally. The conserved protein Mrd1p, which contains five RNA binding domains (RBDs), is essential for processing events leading to small ribosomal subunit synthesis.

Specific combinations of SR proteins associate with single pre-messenger RNAs in vivo and contribute different functions.

Serine/arginine-rich (SR) proteins are required for messenger RNA (mRNA) processing, export, surveillance, and translation. We show that in Chironomus tentans, nascent transcripts associate with multiple types of SR proteins in specific combinations. Alternative splicing factor (ASF)/SF2, SC35, 9G8, and hrp45/SRp55 are all present in Balbiani ring (BR) pre-messenger ribonucleoproteins (mRNPs) preferentially when introns appear in the pre-mRNA and when cotranscriptional splicing takes place.

Gene expression in polytene nuclei.

Gene expression in eukaryotic cells is a multi-step process. Many of the steps are both co-ordinated and quality controlled. For example, transcription is closely coupled to pre-messenger RNA (mRNA)-protein assembly, pre-mRNA processing, surveillance of the correct synthesis of messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP), and export.

Mrd1p binds to pre-rRNA early during transcription independent of U3 snoRNA and is required for compaction of the pre-rRNA into small subunit processomes.

In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, synthesis of the small ribosomal subunit requires assembly of the 35S pre-rRNA into a 90S preribosomal complex. SnoRNAs, including U3 snoRNA, and many trans-acting proteins are required for the ordered assembly and function of the 90S preribosomal complex. Here, we show that the conserved protein Mrd1p binds to the pre-rRNA early during transcription and is required for compaction of the pre-18S rRNA into SSU processome particles.

A specific SR protein binds preferentially to the secretory protein gene transcripts in salivary glands of Chironomus tentans.

The members of the serine-arginine (SR) family of proteins play multiple roles in posttranscriptional gene expression. Initially considered as essential splicing factors confined to the nucleus and regulating constitutive and alternative splicing, SR proteins are now known to shuttle between the nucleus and the cytoplasm and to be involved in mRNA biogenesis, transport, and translation. In Chironomus tentans, hrp45 is an SR protein structurally similar to the Drosophila SRp55/B52 SR protein.

Expressed sequence tags from the midgut and an epithelial cell line of Chironomus tentans: annotation, bioinformatic classification of unknown transcripts and analysis of expression levels.

Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were generated from two Chironomus tentans cDNA libraries, constructed from an embryo epithelial cell line and from larva midgut tissue. 8584 5'-end ESTs were generated and assembled into 3110 tentative unique transcripts, providing the largest contribution of C. tentans sequences to public databases to date.

Chironomus tentans-repressor splicing factor represses SR protein function locally on pre-mRNA exons and is displaced at correct splice sites.

Chironomus tentans-repressor splicing factor (Ct-RSF) represses the activation of splicing by SR proteins in vitro. Ct-RSF colocalizes with the Ser-Arg-rich (SR) protein hrp45 in interchromatin granule clusters and coimmunoprecipitates with hrp45 in nuclear extracts. Ct-RSF and hrp45 can also interact directly in vitro.

CRM1 and Ran are present but a NES-CRM1-RanGTP complex is not required in Balbiani ring mRNP particles from the gene to the cytoplasm.

Messenger RNA is formed from precursors known as pre-mRNA. These precursors associate with proteins to form pre-mRNA-protein (pre-mRNP) complexes. Processing machines cap, splice and polyadenylate the pre-mRNP and in this way build the mRNP.

The Chironomus tentans translation initiation factor eIF4H is present in the nucleus but does not bind to mRNA until the mRNA reaches the cytoplasmic perinuclear region.

In the cell nucleus, precursors to mRNA, pre-mRNAs, associate with a large number of proteins and are processed to mRNA-protein complexes, mRNPs. The mRNPs are then exported to the cytoplasm and the mRNAs are translated into proteins. The mRNAs containing in-frame premature stop codons are recognized and degraded in the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay process.
