Popis: | Unfolded protein response (UPR) is triggered by the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which is accomplished by a dramatic induction of genes encoding ER chaperones. Activation of these genes involves their rapid transcription by Hac1p, encoded by the HAC1 precursor transcript harboring an intron and a bipartite element (3′-BE) in the 3′-UTR. ER stress facilitates intracellular targeting and recruitment of HAC1 pre-mRNA to Ire1p foci (requiring 3′-BE), leading to its non-spliceosomal splicing mediated by Ire1p/Rlg1p. A critical concentration of the pre-HAC1 harboring a functional 3′-BE element is governed by its 3′→5′ decay by the nuclear exosome/DRN. In the absence of stress, pre-HAC1 mRNA undergoes a rapid and kinetic 3′→5′ decay leading to a precursor pool, the majority of which lack the BE element. Stress, in contrast, causes a diminished decay, thus resulting in the production of a population with an increased abundance of pre-HAC1 mRNA carrying an intact BE, which facilitates its more efficient recruitment to Ire1p foci. This mechanism plays a crucial role in the timely activation of UPR and its prompt attenuation following the accomplishment of homeostasis. Thus, a kinetic mRNA decay provides a novel paradigm for mRNA targeting and regulation of gene expression. |
