MicroRNAs are small regulatory RNAs involved in several processes in plants ranging from development and stress responses to defense against pathogens. In order to accomplish their molecular functions, miRNAs are methylated and loaded into one ARGONAUTE (AGO) protein, commonly known as AGO1, to stabilize and protect the molecule and to assemble a functional RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). A specific machinery controls miRNA turnover to ensure the silencing release of targeted-genes in given circumstances. The trimming and tailing of miRNAs are fundamental modifications related to their turnover and, hence, to their action. In order to gain a better understanding of these modifications, we analyzed Arabidopsis thaliana small RNA sequencing data from a diversity of mutants, related to miRNA biogenesis, action, and turnover, and from different cellular fractions and immunoprecipitations. Besides confirming the effects of known players in these pathways, we found increased trimming and tailing in miRNA biogenesis mutants. More importantly, our analysis allowed us to reveal the importance of ARGONAUTE 1 (AGO1) loading, slicing activity, and cellular localization in trimming and tailing of miRNAs.

AbstractIncreasing numbers of 3′UTR-derived small, regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are being discovered in bacteria, most generated by cleavage from longer transcripts. The enzyme required for these cleavages has been reported to be RNase E, the major endoribonuclease in enterica bacteria. Previous studies investigating RNase E have come to a range of different conclusions regarding the determinants for RNase E processing. To understand the sequence and structure determinants for the precise processing of the 3′ UTR-derived sRNAs, we examined the cleavage of multiple mutant and chimeric derivatives of the 3′ UTR-derived MicL sRNA in vivo and in vitro. Our results revealed that tandem stem-loops 3′ to the cleavage site define optimal, correctly-positioned cleavage of MicL and likely other similar sRNAs. Moreover, our assays of MicL, ArcZ and CpxQ showed that sRNAs exhibit differential sensitivity to RNase E, likely a consequence of a hierarchy of sRNA features recognized by the endonuclease.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short single-stranded noncoding RNAs (20- to 25-nucleotide (nt) long) representing a class of small regulatory RNAs. By inhibiting the translation of target mRNAs, miRNAs regulate gene expression posttranscriptionally and thus play an important role in a wide range of cellular processes. Currently, there are two known types of miRNAs: intergenic and intronic miRNAs. Biogenesis of an intergenic miRNA starts with the synthesis of a primary miRNA transcript (pri-miRNA) catalyzed by types-II or -III RNA polymerase (Pol-II/III). Pri-miRNAs are processed in the nucleus by the ribonuclease Drosha into a miRNA precursor (pre-miRNA) approximately 60-nt in length. After being transported into the cytoplasm, these pre-miRNAs are further processed into mature and functional miRNAs by the cytoplasmic ribonuclease Dicer. Mature miRNAs then associate with a number of proteins to form the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) that bind with target mRNAs having total or partial complementary sequences to the miRNAs and initiate the inhibition of subsequent protein translation via RNA interference (RNAi).
