4 Stellos K, et al. Supplementary Information Supplementary Figure 4 Supplementary Figure 4. CTSS 3'UTR mrna contains many HuR-binding motifs. Predicted HuR-binding motifs within the 3'UTR of CTSS mrna are depicted in yellow, validated RNA edited sites are shown in red font and predicted RNA edited sites (according to DARNED) are depicted in blue. The two Alu regions, AluJo (genomic coordinates: ) and AluSx+ (genomic coordinates: ), are indicated in black font.
5 Supplementary Figure 5 Supplementary Figure 5. Efficiency of HuR knockdown in endothelial cells and effect of ADAR1 knockdown on HuR expression. (a, b) Western blot analysis of the presence of HuR protein in endothelial cells transfected with scrambled or sihur. (b) Relative quantification of HuR protein levels obtained by densitometric analysis of the western blot after normalization with anti-tubulin (n = 3). (c) HuR silencing regulates CTSS mrna expression. (d-f) RNA-seq analysis (d), RT-qPCR (e) and western blot (f) showing that ADAR1 knockdown does not affect HuR mrna expression and protein expression in endothelial cells. Data are mean ± s.e.m. of n independent biological experiments as stated. Two experimental groups were compared using a two-tailed non-parametric Mann-Whitney U-test. *P<0.05 vs. scrambled or control.
6 Supplementary Figure 6 Supplementary Figure 6. Recombinant HuR preferentially binds to in vitro transcribed and edited CTSS 3'UTR RNA. (a) The in vitro transcribed CTSS 3'UTR RNA from the T7 promoterdriven construct was subjected to in vitro RNA editing assay in order to generate the unedited and the edited form of the RNA (see Methods for details). The in vitro RNA editing efficiency reaction is shown as mean RNA editing rate per edited nucleotide within the CTSS 3'UTR (n = 3-5). (b) Both unedited and edited recombinant CTSS RNAs were incubated with recombinant HuR protein. In one set of experiments (d) HeLa nuclear extracts were added in order to provide a more physiological environment in the reaction. Then, HuR was immunoprecipitated and the respective RNA was recovered, reversed transcribed and 3'UTR of CTSS was detected by qrt- PCR. (c, d) Detection of 3'UTR of CTSS in HuR-immunoprecipitates after incubation of the recombinant RNA with HuR or control vehicle in the absence (c) or presence (d) of HeLa nuclear extracts (n/e). In both cases the fold change (vs. control) of the HuR-binding of the edited form of the 3'UTR CTSS RNA is increased in comparison to the unedited one. The mean expression and ± s.e.m of two independent experiments are depicted.
7 Supplementary Figure 7 Supplementary Figure 7. iclip maps RNA interactions of HuR protein in living cells. HUVEC cells were transfected with ADAR1- or scrambled sirna (+/ ADAR1-knockdown). (a) After UV crosslinking HuR was immunoprecipitated and samples were subjected to RNase A treatment, using two different RNase concentrations (H high, L low RNase). The coimmunoprecipitated RNA was dephosphorylated, ligated with a 3'-RNA linker and 5'- radiolabeled. Samples were size-separated by SDS-PAGE and transferred to a nylon membrane.
8 Protein/RNA-complexes were visualized by autoradiography. The boxed regions were cut from the membrane, proteins were digested with Proteinase K and RNA was subjected to iclip library preparation and sequencing (see Materials and Methods for details). (b) Bioinformatic analysis of the iclip sequencing data showing the total number of the uniquely mapped reads in scrambled (control) and siadar1-transfected cells. (c,d) Snapshot from Integrate Genome Viewer (IGV) showing the overview of the reads from the iclip sequencing data lying within the 3'UTR of CTSS region. In total 7 regions containing known HuR binding sites were identified (region 3 and 4 are shown in larger magnification along with the respective genomic coordinates, lower part) in scrambled-transfected HUVECs. The presence of HuR binding sites is reduced in siadar1-transfected HUVECs. (e) Quantification of the reduction of the mean number of reads present in all the 7 identified HuR binding regions on 3'UTR CTSS mrna compared to scrambled transfected HUVECs.
9 Supplementary Figure 8 Supplementary Figure 8. HuR interacts with seven regions of the 3'UTR of CTSS in HUVECs. Sequences obtained from iclip sequencing data are highlighted in yellow with the known HuR binding motifs in green. A-to-I RNA editing events are marked in red. Two regions (Region 6 and 7) belong to the AluSx with 4 predicted edited sites (marked in blue font) according to DARNED database. One region (Region 4) belongs to the AluJo + and two other regions (Region 1 and 2) belong to the AluSx + which is the most highly edited region in CTSS 3'UTR. One region (Region 3) is located between the edited AluJo + (AluJo) and AluSx + regions.
10 Supplementary Figure 9 Supplementary Figure 9. Human and mouse 3'UTR of CTSS pre-mrna is not conserved. (a) Snapshot obtained from Ensemble database showing the comparative analysis of human and murine CTSS gene. (b) Murine 3'UTR of CTSS mrna is much shorter than the human one (human vs. murine 3'UTR length: 2850 vs. 220 nucleotides).
11 Supplementary Figure 10 Supplementary Figure 10. Nucleotides found to be commonly highly edited at the 3'UTR CTSS mrna among the in vitro studies, the cells and human tissues. Editing rate determined by RNA editing studies (see Methods for details) of the commonly edited nucleotides in CTSS 3'UTR of (a) HUVECs, (b) the in vitro transcribed (IVT) edited transcript (n = 3-5), (c) the luciferase construct (whole 3'UTR cloned into a luciferase expressing vector- see Methods for details, n = 6), (d) PBMCs from patients with coronary artery disease (stable CAD and AMI: total n = 45), (e) Carotid atherosclerotic plaques from the BiKE cohort (n = 20), (f) Thoracic aortic aneurysm tissues (n = 35).
12 Supplementary Figure 11 Supplementary Figure 11. HuR binding motif enrichment in 3'UTRs of edited transcripts compared to all transcripts, especially in regions in close proximity to RNA editing sites. (a) Bioinformatic analysis of the mean the number of HuR binding motifs (ATTTA, TTTTT, TTTTG) in 3'UTR-edited transcripts and total transcripts divided by the respective transcript number in endothelial cell transcriptome. The edited transcripts in HUVEC ribo-minus RNA-seq data were identified as described in the Methods. (b) Bioinformatic analysis of the absolute number of HuR binding motifs in the neighboring up- and downstream 100nt-sequences of each edited site observed in the endothelial cell transcriptome (ribo-minus RNA-seq).
13 Supplementary Figure 12 Supplementary Figure 12. Schematic illustration of the impact of RNA editing on cathepsin S mrna expression during homeostasis and in disease. ADAR1 binds to double-stranded RNAs inducing A-to-I RNA editing events in Alu elements present in 3'UTR of CTSS mrna. RNA editing alters mrna secondary structure and binding of the stabilizing RNA-binding protein HuR. Hypoxia and atherosclerotic heart disease upregulate A-to-I RNA editing. The increased RNA editing under pathophysiologic conditions is accompanied by higher CTSS expression levels. Conditions and human diseases that are linked to high CTSS levels are inflammatory diseases like autoimmune and cardiovascular diseases, atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability with subsequent initiation of thrombosis and acute ischemic events (acute myocardial infarction,
14 ischemic stroke, acute peripheral arterial thrombosis), arterial aneurysm formation with subsequent dissection and bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke, aortic aneurysm), tumor angiogenesis, growth and metastasis and finally tumor and cardiovascular mortality.
