Abstract:
:The Trypanosoma brucei exoribonuclease, TbDSS-1, has been implicated in multiple aspects of mitochondrial RNA metabolism. Here, we investigate the role of TbDSS-1 in RNA processing and surveillance by analyzing 12S rRNA processing intermediates in TbDSS-1 RNAi cells. RNA fragments corresponding to leader sequence upstream of 12S rRNA accumulate upon TbDSS-1 depletion. The 5' extremity of 12S rRNA is generated by endonucleolytic cleavage, and TbDSS-1 degrades resulting upstream maturation by-products. RNAs with 5' ends at position -141 and 3' ends adjacent to the mature 5' end of 12S rRNA are common and invariably possess oligo(U) tails. 12S rRNAs with mature 3' ends and unprocessed 5' ends also accumulate in TbDSS-1 depleted cells, suggesting that these RNAs represent dead-end products normally destined for decay by TbDSS-1 in an RNA surveillance pathway. Together, these data indicate dual roles for TbDSS-1 in degradation of 12S rRNA maturation by-products and as part of a mitochondrial RNA surveillance pathway that eliminates stalled 12S processing intermediates. We further provide evidence that TbDSS-1 degrades RNAs originating upstream of the first gene on the minor strand of the mitochondrial maxicircle suggesting that TbDSS-1 also removes non-functional RNAs generated from other regions of the mitochondrial genome.
