  1. Argonaute-mediated silencing effects AGO POST-TRANSCRIPTIONAL “RNAi - like” “miRNA - like” mRNA degradation CCR4-NOT P-BODIES AGO2 GW182 AGO AAAAA AAAAA mRNA cleavage by AGO2 Inhibition of translation/deadenylation Eukaryots Eukaryots TRANSCRIPTIONAL RdDM other transcriptional silencing DNA heterochromatin methylation Plants e.g. S. pombe … poorly understood in animals

  2. Argonaute structure and function AGO siRNA 3’ PAZ mRNA 5’ 3’ 5’ MID N PIWI • Argonaute structure explains principles of target recognition and repression

  3. Argonaute structure and function AGO siRNA 3’ PAZ mRNA 5’ 3’ 5’ MID N PIWI • Dissociation constants for seed matching targets are in a pM range • low abundant miRNAs unlikely to have significant regulatory effects • seed match + abundance = siRNA off-targeting

  4. Argonaute-mediated silencing effects AGO A small RNA seed sequence defines the minimal sequence complementarity required for silencing Parameters influencing silencing by small RNAs • small RNA abundance ( stoichiometry ) • target site accessibility • complementarity with the target • type of silencing (transcriptional/post-transcriptional)

  5. OFF-TARGETING Perfect vs. imperfect basepairing

  6. Argonaute – targeting & off-targeting AGO Ago RELOCATION TO P-BODIES AAAAA mRNA degradation Inhibition of translation Ago2 Ago AAAAA Cleavage of mRNA by Ago2 EXPRESSION VECTOR RISC Class 2 hairpin Class1 hairpin loading (miRNA-like) (shRNA) short RNAs (miRNAs and siRNAs) . TRANSFECTION siRNA nucleus cytoplasm

  7. Argonaute – targeting & off-targeting AGO Jackson et al. (2003) Nature Biotech • off-targeting is siRNA-specific • any siRNA has off-targeting potential

  8. Argonaute – targeting & off-targeting AGO Jackson et al. (2003) Nature Biotech • off-targeting is largely concentration-dependent • it is strongly reduced in sub-nanomolar range

  9. Argonaute – targeting & off-targeting AGO transfected at 100nM siRNA2 siRNA4 siRNA3 siRNA1 pool Thermofisher/Dharmacom website • siRNA pooling is a way to reduce concentrations of individual siRNAs while keeping the constant siRNA amount in a transfection • natural siRNA pools produced from siRNAs are highly specific because of a highly diluted off-targeting effect

  10. Argonaute – targeting & off-targeting AGO miRNA-like RNAi-like Inhibition Cleavage of Ago2 Ago of translation mRNA by Ago2 AAAAA AAAAA seed = nucleotides 2-7 seed = nucleotides 2-7 • off-targeting potential stems from seed sequence frequency • siRNA knock-downs - usually employ nM concentrations • hydrodynamic transfection (40 m g/mouse – Nature, 418, 38-39)

  24. Plants – spreading of RNA silencing short distance long distance

  25. Plants – > Animals environmental & systemic RNAi  ? Huang et al., 2006 ? ? ?  ? circulating miRNAs environmental & systemic RNAi Baum et al., 2007 Mao et al. 2007

  26. Plants – > Animals Unclear/controversial issues: Mechanism of transport • Mechanism of transport across membranes not explained • Unclear if free or bound to a protein • Survival in digestive tract? Effector complex structure • Would require binding of methylated single stranded RNAs by AGO Targeting stoichiometry • Concentrations estimated 68-250 fM – too low • Authors calculate ~850 molecules per cell, cannot be verified – data not released

  27. Plants – > Animals RNA, advanced online, Jan 6., 2017 doi: 10.1261/rna.059725.116 • meta-study of xenomiRs of 824 datasets from human tissues and body fluids • xenomiRs commonly present in tissues (17%) and body fluids (69%), • low abundance, 0.001% of host human miRNA counts • no significant enrichment in sequencing data from tissues and body fluids exposed to dietary intake (e.g. liver). • no significant depletion in tissues and body fluids that are relatively separated from the main bloodstream (e.g, brain and cerebro-spinal fluids) • the majority (81%) of body fluid xenomiRs stem from rodents, which are rare human dietary contributions, but common laboratory animals. • body fluid samples from the same studies are clustered by xenomiR compositions - suggesting technical batch effects. • feeding studies - no transfer of plant miRNAs into rat blood, or bovine milk sequences into piglet blood.

  28. Key points • a targeting repertoire of a small RNA is largely determined by its seed – nucleotides 2-8. • not absolute rule (non-canonical binding) • allows some predictability, especially for conserved targets • RNAi-like cleavage or miRNA-like target repression silencing effects are primarily defined by AGO isoform and basepairing • targeting efficiency is determined by: • small RNA abundance ( stoichiometry ) • target site accessibility • complementarity with the target • vertebrates have lack systemic RNAi, an RdRP amplification system, and highly processive Dicer -> inefficient RNAi • plant small RNA pathways use 3’ end 2 -O-methyl modification of all small RNAs. In mammals, such modification is found only in piRNAs bound to PIWI AGO cladein the germline
