Ssu Processome

The first metastable assembly intermediate of the eukaryotic ribosomal small subunit (SSU) is the SSU Processome, a large complex of RNA and protein factors that is thought to represent an early checkpoint in the assembly pathway. Transition of the SSU Processome towards continued maturation requires the removal of the U3 snoRNA and biogenesis factors as well as ribosomal RNA processing. While the factors that drive these events are largely known, how they do so is not. The methyltransferase Bud23 has a role during this transition, but its function, beyond the nonessential methylation of ribosomal RNA, is not characterized. Here, we have carried out a comprehensive genetic screen to understand Bud23 function. We identified 67 unique extragenic bud23Δ-suppressing mutations that mapped to genes encoding the SSU Processome factors DHR1, IMP4, UTP2 (NOP14), BMS1 and the SSU protein RPS28A. These factors form a physical interaction network that links the binding site of Bud23 to the U3 snoRNA and many of the amino acid substitutions weaken protein-protein and protein-RNA interactions. Importantly, this network links Bud23 to the essential GTPase Bms1, which acts late in the disassembly pathway, and the RNA helicase Dhr1, which catalyzes U3 snoRNA removal. Moreover, particles isolated from cells lacking Bud23 accumulated late SSU Processome factors and ribosomal RNA processing defects. We propose a model in which Bud23 dissociates factors surrounding its binding site to promote SSU Processome progression.

AbstractThe first metastable assembly intermediate of the eukaryotic ribosomal small subunit (SSU) is the SSU Processome, a large complex of RNA and protein factors that is thought to represent an early checkpoint in the assembly pathway. Transition of the SSU Processome towards continued maturation requires the removal of the U3 snoRNA and biogenesis factors as well as ribosomal RNA processing. While the factors that drive these events are largely known, how they do so is not well understood. The methyltransferase Bud23 has a role during this transition, but its function, beyond the nonessential methylation of 18S rRNA, is not characterized. Here, we have carried out a comprehensive genetic screen to understand Bud23 function. We identified 67 unique extragenic bud23Δ-suppressing mutations that mapped to genes encoding the SSU Processome factors DHR1, IMP4, UTP2 (NOP14), BMS1 and the SSU protein RPS28A. These factors form a physical interaction network that links the binding site of Bud23 to the U3 snoRNA and many of the suppressing mutations weaken protein-protein and protein-RNA interactions. Importantly, this network links Bud23 to the GTPase Bms1 and the RNA helicase Dhr1. Bms1 is thought to drive conformational changes to promote rRNA cleavage, and we previously showed that Dhr1 is required for unwinding the U3 snoRNA. Moreover, particles isolated from cells lacking Bud23 accumulated late SSU Processome factors and pre-rRNAs not cleaved at sites A1 and A2. We propose a model in which Bud23 dissociates factors surrounding its binding site to promote SSU Processome progression.Author summaryRibosomes are the molecular machines that synthesize proteins and are composed of a large and a small subunit which carry out the essential functions of polypeptide synthesis and mRNA decoding, respectively. Ribosome production is tightly linked to cellular growth as cells must produce enough ribosomes to meet their protein needs. However, ribosome assembly is a metabolically expensive pathway that must be balanced with other cellular energy needs and regulated accordingly. In eukaryotes, the small subunit (SSU) Processome is a metastable intermediate that ultimately progresses towards a mature SSU through the release of biogenesis factors. The decision to progress the SSU Processome is thought to be an early checkpoint in the SSU assembly pathway, but what drives this checkpoint is unknown. Previous studies suggest that Bud23 plays an uncharacterized role during SSU Processome progression. Here, we used a genetic approach to understand its function and found that Bud23 is connected to a network of factors that stabilize the particle. Interestingly, two of these factors are enzymes that facilitate structural rearrangements needed for progression. We conclude that Bud23 promotes the release of factors surrounding its binding site to drive rearrangements during the progression of the SSU Processome.

AbstractDifferent pre-ribosomal complexes are formed during ribosome biogenesis, and the composition of these complexes is highly dynamic. Dbp4, a conserved DEAD-box RNA helicase implicated in ribosome biogenesis, interacts with nucleolar proteins Bfr2 and Enp2. We show that, like Dbp4, Bfr2 and Enp2 are required for the early processing steps leading to the production of 18S ribosomal RNA. We also found that Bfr2 and Enp2 associate with the U3 small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), the U3-specific protein Mpp10 and various pre-18S ribosomal RNA species. Thus, we propose that Bfr2, Dbp4 and Enp2 are components of the small subunit (SSU) processome, a large complex of ∼80S. Sucrose gradient sedimentation analyses indicated that Dbp4, Bfr2 and Enp2 sediment in a peak of ∼50S and in a peak of ∼80S. Bfr2, Dbp4 and Enp2 associate together in the 50S complex, which does not include the U3 snoRNA; however, they associate with U3 snoRNA in the 80S complex (SSU processome). Immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that U14 snoRNA associates with Dbp4 in the 50S complex, but not with Bfr2 or Enp2. The assembly factor Tsr1 is not part of the ‘50S’ complex, indicating this complex is not a pre-40S ribosome. A combination of experiments leads us to propose that Bfr2, Enp2 and Dbp4 are recruited at late steps during assembly of the SSU processome.

Fibrillarin is one of the protein components that together with U3 snRNA constitute the U3 snRNP, a small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle involved in ribosomal RNA processing in eucaryotic cells. Using an antifibrillarin antiserum for protein detection and a fibrillarin cDNA and a synthetic oligonucleotide complementary to U3 snRNA as hybridization probes, the expression of these two components has been studied during Xenopus development. Fibrillarin mRNA is accumulated early in oogenesis, like many other messengers, and translated during oocyte growth. Fibrillarin protein is thus progressively accumulated throughout oogenesis to be assembled with U3 snRNA and used for ribosome production in the amplified nucleoli. After fertilization, the amount of U3 snRNA decreases while the maternally accumulated fibrillarin mRNA is maintained and utilized to produce more protein. After the mid-blastula transition, stored fibrillarin is assembled with newly synthesized U3 snRNA and becomes localized in the prenucleolar bodies and reforming nucleoli.

Ssu Processome

Ribosomes are the universally conserved ribonucleoprotein complexes that synthesize proteins. The two subunits of the eukaryotic ribosome are produced through a quasi-independent assembly-line-like pathway involving the hierarchical actions of numerous trans-acting biogenesis factors and the incorporation of ribosomal proteins. The factors work together to shape the nascent subunits through a series of intermediate states into their functional architectures. The earliest intermediate of the small subunit (SSU or 40S) is the SSU Processome which is subsequently transformed into the pre-40S intermediate. This transformation is, in part, facilitated by the binding of the methyltransferase Bud23. How Bud23 is released from the resultant pre-40S is not known. The ribosomal proteins Rps0, Rps2, and Rps21, termed the Rps0-cluster proteins, and several biogenesis factors are known to bind the pre-40S around the time that Bud23 is released, suggesting that one or more of these factors induce Bud23 release. Here, we systematically examined the requirement of these factors for the release of Bud23 from pre-40S particles. We found that the Rps0-cluster proteins are needed but not sufficient for Bud23 release. The atypical kinase/ATPase Rio2 shares a binding site with Bud23 and is thought to be recruited to pre-40S after the Rps0-cluster proteins. Depletion of Rio2 prevented the release of Bud23 from the pre-40S. More importantly, the addition of recombinant Rio2 to pre-40S particles affinity-purified from Rio2-depleted cells was sufficient for Bud23 release in vitro. The ability of Rio2 to displace Bud23 was independent of nucleotide hydrolysis. We propose a novel role for Rio2 in which its binding to the pre-40S actively displaces Bud23 from the pre-40S, and we suggest a model in which the binding of the Rps0-cluster proteins and Rio2 promote the release of Bud23.
