Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA: the classical texbook picture
![Page 5: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Alternative picture: co-transcriptional pre-mRNA processing
• This picture is more realistic than the previous one, particularly for long pre-mRNAs
![Page 6: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Heterogenous ribonucleoprotein patricles (hnRNP) proteins
• In nucleus nascent RNA transcripts are associated with abundant set of proteins
• hnRNPs prevent formation of secondary structures within pre-mRNAs
• hnRNP proteins are multidomain with one or more RNA binding domains and at least one domain for interaction with other proteins
• some hnRNPs contribute to pre-mRNA recognition by RNA processing enzymes
• The two most common RNA binding domains are RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) and RGG box (five Arg-Gly-Gly repeats interspersed with aromatic residues)

The capping enzyme
• A bifunctional enzyme with both 5’-triphosphotase and guanyltransferase activities
• In yeast the capping enzyme is a heterodimer
• In metazoans the capping enzyme is monomeric with two catalytic domains
• The capping enzyme specific only for RNAs, transcribed by RNA Pol II (why?)

Small nuclear RNAs U1-U6 participate in splicing
• snRNAs U1, U2, U4, U5 and U6 form complexes with 6-10 proteins each, forming small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs)
• Sm- binding sites for snRNP proteins
![Page 24: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Self-splicing introns
• Under certain nonphysiological conditions in vitro, some introns can get spliced without aid of any proteins or other RNAs
• Group I self-splicing introns occur in rRNA genes of protozoans
• Group II self-splicing introns occur in chloroplasts and mitochondria of plants and fungi
![Page 33: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Spliceosome
• Spliceosome contains snRNAs, snRNPs and many other proteins, totally about 300 subunits.
• This makes it the most complicted macromolecular machine known to date.
• But why is spliceosome so extremely complicated if it only catalyzes such a straightforward reaction as an intron deletion? Even more, it seems that some introns are capable to excise themselves without aid of any protein, so why have all those 300 subunits?
![Page 36: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
• No one knows for sure, but there might be at least 4 reasons:
• 1. Defective mRNAs cause a lot of problems for cells, so some subunits might assure correct splicing and error correction
• 2. Splicing is coupled to nuclear transport, this requires accessory proteins
• 3. Splicing is coupled to transcription and this might require more additional accessory proteins
• 4. Many genes can be spliced in several alternative ways, which also might require additional factors
![Page 37: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
One gene – several proteins
• Cleavage at alternative poly(A) sites
• Alternative promoters
• Alternative splicing of different exons
• RNA editing
![Page 38: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

RNA editing
• Enzymatic altering of pre-mRNA sequence
• Common in mitochondria of protozoans and plants and chloroplasts, where more than 50% of bases can be altered
• Much rarer in higher eukaryotes
Editing of human apoB pre-mRNA
![Page 40: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
The two types of editing1) Substitution editing• Chemical altering of individual nucleotides• Examples: Deamination of C to U or A to I
(inosine, read as G by ribosome)
2) Insertion/deletion editing•Deletion/insertion of nucleotides (mostly uridines) •For this process, special guide RNAs (gRNAs) are required
![Page 41: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)

Small nucleolar RNAs
• ~150 different nucleolus restricted RNA species• snoRNAs are associated with proteins, forming small
nucleolar ribonucleoprotein particles (snoRNPs)• The main three classes of snoRNPs are envolved in
following processes:
a) removing introns from pre-rRNA
b) methylation of 2’ OH groups at specific sites
c) converting of uridine to pseudouridine
![Page 45: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
What is this pseudouridine good for?
• Pseudouridine is found in RNAs that have a tertiary structure that is important for their function, like rRNAs, tRNAs, snRNAs and snoRNAs
• The main role of and other modifications appears to be the maintenance of three-dimensional structural integrity in RNAs
Uridine ( U ) Pseudouridine ()
![Page 46: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Where do snoRNAs come from?
• Some are produced from their own promoters by RNA pol II or III
• The majority of snoRNAs come from introns of genes, which encode proteins involved in ribosome synthesis or translation
• Some snoRNAs come from intrones of genes, which encode nonfuctional mRNAs
![Page 47: Post-transcriptional gene control. Subjects, covered in the lecture Processing of eukaryotic pre-mRNA - capping -polyadenylation -splicing -editing Nuclear.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649d4c5503460f94a2ae50/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Splicing of pre-tRNAs is different from pre-mRNAs and pre-rRNAs
• The splicing of pre-tRNAs is catalyzed by protein only
• A pre-tRNA intron is excised in one step, not by two transesterification reactions
• Hydrolysis of GTP and ATP is required to join the two RNA halves

The central channel• Small metabolites, ions and globular
proteins up to ~60 kDa can diffuse freely through the channel
• Large proteins and ribonucleoprotein complexes (including mRNAs) are selectively transported with the assistance of transporter proteins

After mRNA reaches the cytoplasm...
• mRNA exporter, mRNP proteins, nuclear cap-binding complex and nuclear poly-A binding proteins dissociate from mRNA and gets back to nucleus
• 5’ cap binds to translation factor eIF4E• Cytoplasmic poly-A binding protein (PABPI)
binds to poly-A tail• Translation factor eIF4G binds to both eIF4E and
PABPI, thus linking together 5’ and 3’ ends of mRNA
