8 Why the Cap structure is important? 1) RNA stability 2) Favours the mrna transport to the cytoplasm 3) Increases transla(on (it binds to eif4e that belongs to transla(on ini(a(on complex)
9 7-metilguanosina This involves the addi(on of a modified guanine base to the 50 end of the RNA. Specifically, it is a methylated guanine, and it is joined to the RNA transcript by an unusual 5 5 linkage involving three phosphates CAP is added at very early stage of transcrip(on ini(a(on estremità 5 della RNA catena The 5-5 phosphodiester bond makes the molecule resistant to the exonuclease ac(vity. I vitro synthe(zed RNA without CAP are rapidly degraded
10 pre-mrna capping The 5 cap is created in three enzyma(c steps: 1. a phosphate group is removed from the 5 end of the transcript. RNA triphosphatase 2. GMP moiety is added. RNA guanylyltransferase 3. GMP nucleo(de is modified by the addi(on of a methyl group. RNA(G-7-) methyltransferase
11 5 CAP favours the mrna transport to the cytoplasm CBC: CAP binding complex
12 Phosphorylation state of the CTD of RNA polymerase II along transcription cycle
13 DSIF/NELF-mediated checkpoint to ensure pre-mrna capping. TFIIH phosphorylate s the RNAP II CTD on Ser 5. DSIF interacts with RNAP II shortly after initiation. NELF recognizes the RNAP II DSIF complex and halts elongation. This pause allows the recruitment of the capping enzyme (CE) which adds a 5 -cap to the nascent transcript NELF is released by the concerted action of P-TEFb phosphorylation of DSIF and the CTD on Ser 2, PRMT1/5 methylation of Spt5, and the capping enzyme itself. FCP1 may also participate, as FCP1 is required to release the capping enzyme. The precise mechanism causing NELF release is unknown. Robert J. Sims III et al. Genes Dev. 2004;18:

34 Variations at the transcriptome 3 end when processing gets alternative Approximately up to 70 % of the transcriptome is affected by a mechanism widely referred to as alternative 3 end cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) APA can be regulated on the level of mrna 3 end processing by various cis- and trans-acting determinants: (1) the intrinsic strength of sequence elements, (2) the concentration or activity of polyadenylation factors, and/or (3) tissue- or stage-specific regulatory factors are the most important key players
35 APA is highly regulated during development Proliferating cells tend to use upstream ( proximal ) PASs and produce mrnas with shorter 3 UTRs, while quiescent/differentiated cells favor downstream ( distal ) PASs and produce mrnas with longer 3 UTRs In contrast during somatic reprogramming or tumorigenesis, proximal PASs are favored leading to shorter 3 UTRs APA transcript isoforms of the same gene can encode different proteins and/or change the 3 UTR properties, leading to: - the inclusion or exclusion of mrna stabilizing or destabilizing elements, - mirna target sites, - result in different translation efficiencies - result in different subcellular localization

37 CSTF-64 levels control the alternative processing of mrna. In not activated B cells the limiting concentration of CSTF allows the recognition of the stronger polyadenylation signal. The immuglobulin produced will then contain a portion for binding to the membrane. After the activation of B cells CSTF levels are increased and this allows t h e u s e o f t h e w e a k e r polyadenylation site that will be preferentially used because it will be the first to be transcribed. CstF-64 The polyadenylation factor CstF-64 regulates alternative processing of IgM heavy chain premrna during B cell differentiation. Takagaki Y, Seipelt RL, Peterson ML, Manley JL. Cell 1996 Nov 29;87(5):941-52
38 U1A: an example of on-off regulation of the cleavage and polyadenylation step in RNA processing U1A is a protein that binds to U1snRNA Obtimal U1A binding site
39 U1A is able to bind to its mrna The mrna encoding for U1A protein has a subop<mal polya site (AUUAAA) and 2 sequences similar to the U1A binding site on U1snRNA U1A - EMSA assay with increasing amount of U1A protein revealed that U1A binds its own mrna and that this lawer possessed two U1A binding sites RNA free
40 U1A autoregulation When the level of U1A exceeds that of U1 snrna, the excess U1A protein binds to its two binding sites in U1A pre-mrnas. Since U1A binding does not prevent cleavage of the pre-mrnas, free 3 ends are generated in the normal fashion In the absence of polyadenylation, however, both cleavage products are rapidly degraded by an exonuclease, so no functional U1A mrna is produced. As a result, synthesis of U1A protein is decreased until all the excess is used in formation of new U1 snrnps. Sub-obtimal U1A binding site sub-obtimal site
41 influenza A by its connection to the cellular 3 end apparatus has devised an efficient way to specifically shut off cellular gene expression The influenza A NS1 protein is one of the most abundant proteins synthesized in infected cells It interacts with the cellular 30 kda subunit of CPSF. By sequestering CPSF30 it prevents the binding of the CPSF complex to the RNA substrate thus inhibits 3 end cleavage and polyadenylation of the host pre-mrnas by preventing NS1 also targets PABPN1, which inhibits the processive synthesis of long poly(a) tails catalyzed by PAP As mrna processing represents a prerequisite for cytoplasmic export, the uncleaved host premrnas are retained in the nucleus, while viral RNAs are still exported.
42 APA in human disease - Loss of function mutations of globin mrna 3 end processing are a well recognized cause of thalassemias. Thalassemia patients have different mutations that result in an alteration of the AAUAAA hexanucleotide of the α globin and β globin genes, and invariably inactivate or severely inhibit gene expression. - Gain of function mutation stimulating 3 end processing in the prothrombin (coagulation factor II; F2) gene. The G A mutation converts the physiologically inefficient GC F2 cleavage site into the mechanistically most efficient CA dinucleotide, which increases cleavage site recognition and results in an enhancement of prothrombin mrna and protein expression. The result in an increased risk to develop thrombosis (referred to as thrombophilia). - defective PAP causes cell cycle arrest in the G 0 G 1 phases, the activity of PAP thus likely reflects the proliferative activity of cells è PAP mrna is overexpressed in human carcinomas of the breast, colon, ovary and pancreas and polyadenylation activity is significantly enhanced in aggressive acute leukemias and Burkitt lymphoma compared with less aggressive chronic leukemias and normal lymphocytes - mrnas with shorter 3 UTRs tend to be more stable or globally elevated eventually leading to higher protein output è switching to shorter 3 UTRs may allow proto-oncogenes to escape from inhibition by mirnas, thereby resulting in oncogene activation also in the absence of genetic alterations.
43 Histone mrna processing is polyadenylation independent
