While it is known that H3.3K36M changes the epigenetic landscape, its effects on gene expression dynamics remain unclear. Here, we use a synthetic reporter to measure the effects of H3.3K36M on silencing and epigenetic memory after recruitment of the ZNF10 Krüppel-associated box (KRAB) domain, part of the largest class of human repressors and associated with H3K9me3 deposition. We find that H3.3K36M, which decreases H3K36 methylation and increases histone acetylation, leads to a decrease in epigenetic memory and promoter methylation weeks after KRAB release. We propose a model for establishment and maintenance of epigenetic memory, where the H3K36 methylation pathway is necessary to maintain histone deacetylation and convert H3K9me3 domains into DNA methylation for stable epigenetic memory. Our quantitative model can inform oncogenic mechanisms and guide development of epigenetic editing tools.","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374104","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple pri-miRNA sequence motifs affect MP recognition, fidelity, and efficiency. Here, we performed cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) and biochemical studies of several let-7 family pri-miRNAs in complex with human MP. We show that MP has the structural plasticity to accommodate a range of pri-miRNAs. These structures revealed key features of the 5′ UG sequence motif, more comprehensively represented as the “flipped U with paired N” (fUN) motif. Our analysis explains how cleavage of class-II pri-let-7 members harboring a bulged nucleotide generates a non-canonical precursor with a 1-nt 3′ overhang. Finally, the MP-SRSF3-pri-let-7f1 structure reveals how SRSF3 contributes to MP fidelity by interacting with the CNNC motif and Drosha’s Piwi/Argonaute/Zwille (PAZ)-like domain. Overall, this study sheds light on the mechanisms for flexible recognition, accurate cleavage, and regulated processing of different pri-miRNAs by MP.","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we investigate how P-bodies (PBs) evolve during cell-cycle progression in HEK293 cells. PB purification across the cell cycle uncovers widespread changes in their RNA content, partly uncoupled from cell-cycle-dependent changes in RNA expression. Single-molecule fluorescence <em>in situ</em> hybridization (FISH) shows various mRNA localization patterns in PBs peaking in G1, S, or G2, with examples illustrating the timely capture of mRNAs in PBs when their encoded protein becomes dispensable. Rather than directly reflecting absence of translation, cyclic mRNA localization in PBs can be controlled by RBPs, such as HuR in G2, and by RNA features. Indeed, while PB mRNAs are AU rich at all cell-cycle phases, they are specifically longer in G1, possibly related to post-mitotic PB reassembly. Altogether, our study supports a model where PBs are more than a default location for excess untranslated mRNAs.","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142374105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is, to a large extent, due to the genome-wide and spurious activity of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). However, it is also because the vast majority of initiating RNAPII, regardless of the transcribed DNA unit, terminates within a ∼3-kb early “pausing zone.” Given that the resultant RNAs constitute both functional and non-functional species, their proper sorting is critical. One way to think about such quality control (QC) is that transcripts, from their first emergence, are relentlessly targeted by decay factors, which may only be avoided by engaging protective processing pathways. In a molecular materialization of this concept, recent progress has found that both “destructive” and “productive” RNA effectors assemble at the 5′ end of capped RNA, orchestrated by the essential arsenite resistance protein 2 (ARS2) protein. Based on this principle, we here discuss early QC mechanisms and how these might sort short RNAs to their final fates.","PeriodicalId":18950,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Cell","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":16.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142369144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
