摘要
Abstract The evolutionary mechanism(s) underlying the expression of novel microRNAs (miRs) are still elusive. To explore this issue, we studied the expression of intronic primate-specific hsa-miR-608, located in the Semaphorin 4G (SEMA4G) gene. Engineered ‘humanized’ mice carrying human miR-608 flanked by 250 bp in the murine Sema4g gene expressed miR-608 in several tissues. Moreover, miR-608 flanked by shortened fragments of its human genome region elevated miR-608 levels by 100-fold in murine and human-originated cells, identifying the 150 nucleotides 5’ to pre-miR-608 as an active promoter. Surprisingly, pulldown of this 5’ sequence revealed tight interaction with ribosomal protein L24 (RPL24), which inhibited miR-608 expression. Furthermore, RPL24 depletion altered the levels of 22 miRs, and we discovered that direct interaction of RPL24 with DDX5, a component of the large microprocessor complex, inhibits pri-miR processing. Moreover, RPL24 depletion resulted in Angiogenin (ANG)-mediated production of 5’-half tRFs in human cells, and altered plant tRF profiles. Expanding previous reports that RPL24 regulates miR processing in Arabidopsis thaliana, we implicate RPL24 in an evolutionarily-conserved regulation of miR processing and tRF production.
