Abstract
The nucleolus is the largest membraneless organelle and nuclear body in mammalian cells. It is primarily involved in the biogenesis of ribosomes, essential macromolecular machines responsible for synthesizing all proteins required by the cell. The assembly of ribosomes is evolutionarily conserved and accounts for the most energy-consuming cellular process needed for cell growth, proliferation, and homeostasis. Despite the significance of this process, the substructural mechanistic principles of the nucleolar function in preribosome biogenesis have only recently begun to emerge. Here, we provide a new perspective using advanced super-resolution microscopy and single-molecule MINFLUX nanoscopy on the mechanistic principles governing ribosomal RNA-seeded nucleolar formation and the resulting tripartite suborganization of the nucleolus driven, in part, by liquid-liquid phase separation. With recent advances in the cryogenic electron microscopy (cryoEM) structural analysis of ribosome biogenesis intermediates, we highlight the current understanding of the step-wise assembly of preribosomal subunits in the nucleolus. Finally, we address how novel anticancer drug candidates target early steps in ribosome biogenesis to exploit these essential dependencies for growth arrest and tumor control.

Ribosomal RNA regulates chromosome clustering during mitosis. Cell Discov 2022; 8:51. [PMID: 35637200 PMCID: PMC9151767 DOI: 10.1038/s41421-022-00400-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/02/2021] [Accepted: 02/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Noncoding RNAs are known to associate with mitotic chromosomes, but the identities and functions of chromosome-associated RNAs in mitosis remain elusive. Here, we show that rRNA species associate with condensed chromosomes during mitosis. In particular, pre-rRNAs such as 45S, 32S, and 30S are highly enriched on mitotic chromosomes. Immediately following nucleolus disassembly in mitotic prophase, rRNAs are released and associate with and coat each condensed chromosome at prometaphase. Using unbiased mass spectrometry analysis, we further demonstrate that chromosome-bound rRNAs are associated with Ki-67. Moreover, the FHA domain and the repeat region of Ki-67 recognize and anchor rRNAs to chromosomes. Finally, suppression of chromosome-bound rRNAs by RNA polymerase I inhibition or by using rRNA-binding-deficient Ki-67 mutants impair mitotic chromosome dispersion during prometaphase. Our study thus reveals an important role of rRNAs in preventing chromosome clustering during mitosis.

Abstract
High content image analysis, single molecule tracking, modeling, and DBA patient analysis revealed that ribosomal protein L5 facilitates rDNA-bundled condensate and nucleolar assembly. The nucleolus is the site of ribosome assembly and formed through liquid–liquid phase separation. Multiple ribosomal DNA (rDNA) arrays are bundled in the nucleolus, but the underlying mechanism and significance are unknown. In the present study, we performed high-content screening followed by image profiling with the wndchrm machine learning algorithm. We revealed that cells lacking a specific 60S ribosomal protein set exhibited common nucleolar disintegration. The depletion of RPL5 (also known as uL18), the liquid–liquid phase separation facilitator, was most effective, and resulted in an enlarged and un-separated sub-nucleolar compartment. Single-molecule tracking analysis revealed less-constrained mobility of its components. rDNA arrays were also unbundled. These results were recapitulated by a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model. Transcription and processing of ribosomal RNA were repressed in these aberrant nucleoli. Consistently, the nucleoli were disordered in peripheral blood cells from a Diamond–Blackfan anemia patient harboring a heterozygous, large deletion in RPL5. Our combinatorial analyses newly define the role of RPL5 in rDNA array bundling and the biophysical properties of the nucleolus, which may contribute to the etiology of ribosomopathy.

Abstract
Natural or synthetic naphthoquinones have been identified as interfering with biological systems and in particular exhibiting anticancer properties. As redox cyclers, they may first generate in cells reactive oxygen species and second, as electrophiles, they may react with nucleophiles, mainly thiols, and form covalent adducts. To further decipher the molecular mechanism of action of naphthoquinones in human cells, we have mainly analysed their effects in HeLa cells. First, we have demonstrated that menadione and plumbagin inhibit the nucleolar NAD+-dependent deacetylase Sirtuin 7 in vitro. As assessed by their inhibitions of rDNA transcription, pre-rRNA processing and formation of etoposide-induced 53BP1 foci, menadione and plumbagin inhibit also Sirtuin 7 catalytic activity in vivo. Second, we have established that in experimental conditions in which the sulfhydryl arylation by menadione or plumbagin is prevented by the thiol reducing agent N-acetyl-L-cysteine, the inhibition of Sirtuin 7 catalytic activity is also prevented. Finally, we discuss here how inhibition of Sirtuin 7 might be critical in determining menadione or plumbagin as anti-tumor agents that can be used in combination in anti-tumoral strategies.

Chromosome clustering in mitosis by the nuclear protein Ki-67. Biochem Soc Trans 2021; 49:2767-2776.

Abstract
Ki-67 is highly expressed in proliferating cells, a characteristic that made the protein a very important proliferation marker widely used in the clinic. However, the molecular functions and properties of Ki-67 remained quite obscure for a long time. Only recently important discoveries have shed some light on its function and shown that Ki-67 has a major role in the formation of mitotic chromosome periphery compartment, it is associated with protein phosphatase one (PP1) and regulates chromatin function in interphase and mitosis. In this review, we discuss the role of Ki-67 during cell division. Specifically, we focus on the importance of Ki-67 in chromosome individualisation at mitotic entry (prometaphase) and its contribution to chromosome clustering and nuclear remodelling during mitotic exit.

Abstract
Proteins play a major role in the three-dimensional organization of nuclear genome and its function. While histones arrange DNA into a nucleosome fiber, other proteins contribute to higher-order chromatin structures in interphase nuclei, and mitotic/meiotic chromosomes. Despite the key role of proteins in maintaining genome integrity and transferring hereditary information to daughter cells and progenies, the knowledge about their function remains fragmentary. This is particularly true for the proteins of condensed chromosomes and, in particular, chromosomes of plants. Here, we purified barley mitotic metaphase chromosomes by a flow cytometric sorting and characterized their proteins. Peptides from tryptic protein digests were fractionated either on a cation exchanger or reversed-phase microgradient system before liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. Chromosomal proteins comprising almost 900 identifications were classified based on a combination of software prediction, available database localization information, sequence homology, and domain representation. A biological context evaluation indicated the presence of several groups of abundant proteins including histones, topoisomerase 2, POLYMERASE 2, condensin subunits, and many proteins with chromatin-related functions. Proteins involved in processes related to DNA replication, transcription, and repair as well as nucleolar proteins were found. We have experimentally validated the presence of FIBRILLARIN 1, one of the nucleolar proteins, on metaphase chromosomes, suggesting that plant chromosomes are coated with proteins during mitosis, similar to those of human and animals. These results improve significantly the knowledge of plant chromosomal proteins and provide a basis for their functional characterization and comparative phylogenetic analyses.

Abstract
The imaging of chromatin, genomic loci, RNAs, and proteins is very important to study their localization, interaction, and coordinated regulation. Recently, several clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) based imaging methods have been established. The refurbished tool kits utilizing deactivated Cas9 (dCas9) and dCas13 have been established to develop applications of CRISPR-Cas technology beyond genome editing. Here, we review recent advancements in CRISPR-based methods that enable efficient imaging and visualization of chromatin, genomic loci, RNAs, and proteins. RNA aptamers, Pumilio, SuperNova tagging system, molecular beacons, halotag, bimolecular fluorescence complementation, RNA-guided endonuclease in situ labeling, and oligonucleotide-based imaging methods utilizing fluorescent proteins, organic dyes, or quantum dots have been developed to achieve improved fluorescence and signal-to-noise ratio for the imaging of chromatin or genomic loci. RNA-guided RNA targeting CRISPR systems (CRISPR/dCas13) and gene knock-in strategies based on CRISPR/Cas9 mediated site-specific cleavage and DNA repair mechanisms have been employed for efficient RNA and protein imaging, respectively. A few CRISPR-Cas-based methods to investigate the coordinated regulation of DNA-protein, DNA-RNA, or RNA-protein interactions for understanding chromatin dynamics, transcription, and protein function are also available. Overall, the CRISPR-based methods offer a significant improvement in elucidating chromatin organization and dynamics, RNA visualization, and protein imaging. The current and future advancements in CRISPR-based imaging techniques can revolutionize genome biology research for various applications.

Abstract
The nucleolus is a membrane-less nuclear structure that disassembles when cells undergo mitosis. During mitosis, nucleolar factors are thus released from the nucleolus and dynamically change their subcellular localization; however, their functions remain largely uncharacterised. Here, we found that a nucleolar factor called nucleolar protein 11 (NOL11) forms a protein complex with two tryptophan-aspartic acid (WD) repeat proteins named WD-repeat protein 43 (WDR43) and Cirhin in mitotic cells. This complex, referred to here as the NWC (NOL11-WDR43-Cirhin) complex, exists in nucleoli during interphase and translocates to the periphery of mitotic chromosomes, i.e., perichromosomal regions. During mitotic progression, both the congression of chromosomes to the metaphase plate and sister chromatid cohesion are impaired in the absence of the NWC complex, as it is required for the centromeric enrichment of Aurora B and the associating phosphorylation of histone H3 at threonine 3. These results reveal the characteristics of a novel protein complex consisting of nucleolar proteins, which is required for regulating kinetochores and centromeres to ensure faithful chromosome segregation.

Abstract
The nucleolus is essential for ribosome biogenesis and is involved in many other cellular functions. We performed a systematic spatiotemporal dissection of the human nucleolar proteome using confocal microscopy. In total, 1,318 nucleolar proteins were identified; 287 were localized to fibrillar components, and 157 were enriched along the nucleoplasmic border, indicating a potential fourth nucleolar subcompartment: the nucleoli rim. We found 65 nucleolar proteins (36 uncharacterized) to relocate to the chromosomal periphery during mitosis. Interestingly, we observed temporal partitioning into two recruitment phenotypes: early (prometaphase) and late (after metaphase), suggesting phase-specific functions. We further show that the expression of MKI67 is critical for this temporal partitioning. We provide the first proteome-wide analysis of intrinsic protein disorder for the human nucleolus and show that nucleolar proteins in general, and mitotic chromosome proteins in particular, have significantly higher intrinsic disorder level compared to cytosolic proteins. In summary, this study provides a comprehensive and essential resource of spatiotemporal expression data for the nucleolar proteome as part of the Human Protein Atlas.

Abstract
Staufen1 (STAU1) is an RNA-binding protein involved in the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNAs. We report that a large fraction of STAU1 localizes to the mitotic spindle in colorectal cancer HCT116 cells and in non-transformed hTERT-RPE1 cells. Spindle-associated STAU1 partly co-localizes with ribosomes and active sites of translation. We mapped the molecular determinant required for STAU1-spindle association within the first 88 N-terminal amino acids, a domain that is not required for RNA binding. Interestingly, transcriptomic analysis of purified mitotic spindles revealed that 1054 mRNAs and the precursor ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA), as well as the long non-coding RNAs and small nucleolar RNAs involved in ribonucleoprotein assembly and processing, are enriched on spindles compared with cell extracts. STAU1 knockout causes displacement of the pre-rRNA and of 154 mRNAs coding for proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton organization and cell growth, highlighting a role for STAU1 in mRNA trafficking to spindle. These data demonstrate that STAU1 controls the localization of subpopulations of RNAs during mitosis and suggests a novel role of STAU1 in pre-rRNA maintenance during mitosis, ribogenesis and/or nucleoli reassembly.

Abstract
Visualizing the location and dynamics of RNAs in live cells is key to understanding their function. Here, we identify two endonuclease-deficient, single-component programmable RNA-guided and RNA-targeting Cas13 RNases (dCas13s) that allow robust real-time imaging and tracking of RNAs in live cells, even when using single 20- to 27-nt-long guide RNAs. Compared to the aptamer-based MS2-MCP strategy, an optimized dCas13 system is user friendly, does not require genetic manipulation, and achieves comparable RNA-labeling efficiency. We demonstrate that the dCas13 system is capable of labeling NEAT1, SatIII, MUC4, and GCN4 RNAs and allows the study of paraspeckle-associated NEAT1 dynamics. Applying orthogonal dCas13 proteins or combining dCas13 and MS2-MCP allows dual-color imaging of RNAs in single cells. Further combination of dCas13 and dCas9 systems allows simultaneous visualization of genomic DNA and RNA transcripts in living cells.

Sirri V, Grob A, Berthelet J, Jourdan N, Roussel P. Sirtuin 7 promotes 45S pre-rRNA cleavage at site 2 and determines the processing pathway. J Cell Sci 2019; 132:jcs228601. [PMID: 31331964 PMCID: PMC6771141 DOI: 10.1242/jcs.228601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2018] [Accepted: 07/10/2019] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
In humans, ribosome biogenesis mainly occurs in nucleoli following two alternative pre-rRNA processing pathways differing in the order in which cleavages take place but not by the sites of cleavage. To uncover the role of the nucleolar NAD+-dependent deacetylase sirtuin 7 in the synthesis of ribosomal subunits, pre-rRNA processing was analyzed after sirtinol-mediated inhibition of sirtuin 7 activity or depletion of sirtuin 7 protein. We thus reveal that sirtuin 7 activity is a critical regulator of processing of 45S, 32S and 30S pre-rRNAs. Sirtuin 7 protein is primarily essential to 45S pre-rRNA cleavage at site 2, which is the first step of processing pathway 2. Furthermore, we demonstrate that sirtuin 7 physically interacts with Nop56 and the GAR domain of fibrillarin, and propose that this could interfere with fibrillarin-dependent cleavage. Sirtuin 7 depletion results in the accumulation of 5' extended forms of 32S pre-rRNA, and also influences the localization of fibrillarin. Thus, we establish a close relationship between sirtuin 7 and fibrillarin, which might determine the processing pathway used for ribosome biogenesis.

Nucleolar Division in the Promastigote Stage of Leishmania major Parasite: A Nop56 Point of View. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2018; 2018:1641839. [PMID: 30406129 PMCID: PMC6199852 DOI: 10.1155/2018/1641839] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/15/2018] [Revised: 08/14/2018] [Accepted: 09/13/2018] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Nucleogenesis is the cellular event responsible for the formation of the new nucleoli at the end of mitosis. This process depends on the synthesis and processing of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and, in some eukaryotes, the transfer of nucleolar material contained in prenucleolar bodies (PNBs) to active transcription sites. The lack of a comprehensive description of the nucleolus throughout the cell cycle of the human pathogen Leishmania major prompted us to analyze the distribution of nucleolar protein 56 (Nop56) during interphase and mitosis in the promastigote stage of the parasite. By in silico analysis we show that the orthologue of Nop56 in L. major (LmNop56) contains the three characteristic Nop56 domains and that its predicted three-dimensional structure is also conserved. Fluorescence microscopy observations indicate that the nucleolar localization of LmNop56 is similar, but not identical, to that of the nucleolar protein Elp3b. Notably, unlike other nucleolar proteins, LmNop56 remains associated with the nucleolus in nonproliferative cells. Moreover, epifluorescent images indicate the preservation of the nucleolar structure throughout the closed nuclear division. Experiments performed with the related parasite Trypanosoma brucei show that nucleolar division is carried out by an analogous mechanism.

Abstract
The main purpose of this review is to recall for investigators - and in particular students -, some of the early data and concepts in molecular genetics and biology that are rarely cited in the current literature and are thus invariably overlooked. There is a growing tendency among editors and reviewers to consider that only data produced in the last 10-20 years or so are pertinent. However this is not the case. In exact science, sound data and lucid interpretation never become obsolete, and even if forgotten, will resurface sooner or later. In the field of gene expression, covered in the present review, recent post-genomic data have indeed confirmed many of the earlier results and concepts developed in the mid-seventies, well before the start of the recombinant DNA revolution. Human brains and even the most powerful computers, have difficulty in handling and making sense of the overwhelming flow of data generated by recent high-throughput technologies. This was easier when low throughput, more integrative methods based on biochemistry and microscopy dominated biological research. Nowadays, the need for organising concepts is ever more important, otherwise the mass of available data can generate only "building ruins" - the bricks without an architect. Concepts such as pervasive transcription of genomes, large genomic domains, full domain transcripts (FDTs) up to 100 kb long, the prevalence of post-transcriptional events in regulating eukaryotic gene expression, and the 3D-genome architecture, were all developed and discussed before 1990, and are only now coming back into vogue. Thus, to review the impact of earlier concepts on later developments in the field, I will confront former and current data and ideas, including a discussion of old and new methods. Whenever useful, I shall first briefly report post-genomic developments before addressing former results and interpretations. Equally important, some of the terms often used sloppily in scientific discussions will be clearly defined. As a basis for the ensuing discussion, some of the issues and facts related to eukaryotic gene expression will first be introduced. In chapter 2 the evolution in perception of biology over the last 60 years and the impact of the recombinant DNA revolution will be considered. Then, in chapter 3 data and theory concerning the genome, gene expression and genetics will be reviewed. The experimental and theoretical definition of the gene will be discussed before considering the 3 different types of genetic information - the "Triad" - and the importance of post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression in the light of the recent finding that 90% of genomic DNA seems to be transcribed. Some previous attempts to provide a conceptual framework for these observations will be recalled, in particular the "Cascade Regulation Hypothesis" (CRH) developed in 1967-85, and the "Gene and Genon" concept proposed in 2007. A knowledge of the size of primary transcripts is of prime importance, both for experimental and theoretical reasons, since these molecules represent the primary units of the "RNA genome" on which most of the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression occurs. In chapter 4, I will first discuss some current post-genomic topics before summarising the discovery of the high Mr-RNA transcripts, and the investigation of their processing spanning the last 50 years. Since even today, a consensus concerning the real form of primary transcripts in eukaryotic cells has not yet been reached, I will refer to the viral and specialized cellular models which helped early on to understand the mechanisms of RNA processing and differential splicing which operate in cells and tissues. As a well-studied example of expression and regulation of a specific cellular gene in relation to differentiation and pathology, I will discuss the early and recent work on expression of the globin genes in nucleated avian erythroblasts. An important concept is that the primary transcript not only embodies protein-coding information and regulation of its expression, but also the 3D-structure of the genomic DNA from which it was derived. The wealth of recent post-genomic data published in this field emphasises the importance of a fundamental principle of genome organisation and expression that has been overlooked for years even though it was already discussed in the 1970-80ties. These issues are addressed in chapter 5 which focuses on the involvement of the nuclear matrix and nuclear architecture in DNA and RNA biology. This section will make reference to the Unified Matrix Hypothesis (UMH), which was the first molecular model of the 3D organisation of DNA and RNA. The chapter on the "RNA-genome and peripheral memories" discusses experimental data on the ribonucleoprotein complexes containing pre-mRNA (pre-mRNPs) and mRNA (mRNPs) which are organised in nuclear and cytoplasmic spaces respectively. Finally, "Outlook " will enumerate currently unresolved questions in the field, and will propose some ideas that may encourage further investigation, and comprehension of available experimental data still in need of interpretation. In chapter 8, some propositions and paradigms basic to the authors own analysis are discussed. "In conclusion" the raison d'être of this review is recalled and positioned within the overall framework of scientific endeavour.

Abstract
The chromosome periphery is a complex network of proteins and RNA molecules (many derived from nucleoli) that covers the outer surface of chromosomes and whose function remains mysterious. Although it was first described over 130 years ago, technological advances and the recent discovery that Ki-67 acts as an organiser of this region have allowed the chromosome periphery to be dissected in previously unattainable detail, leading to a revival of interest in this obscure chromosomal compartment. Here, we review the most recent advances into the composition, structure and function of the chromosome periphery, discuss possible roles of Ki-67 during mitosis and consider why this structure is likely to remain the focus of ongoing attention in the future.

Abstract
Nuclear bodies are membraneless organelles that play important roles in genome functioning. A specific type of nuclear bodies known as interphase prenucleolar bodies (iPNBs) are formed in the nucleoplasm after hypotonic stress from partially disassembled nucleoli. iPNBs are then disassembled, and the nucleoli are reformed simultaneously. Here, we show that diffusion of B23 molecules (also known as nucleophosmin, NPM1) from iPNBs, but not fusion of iPNBs with the nucleoli, contributes to the transfer of B23 from iPNBs to the nucleoli. Maturation of pre-ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs) and the subsequent outflow of mature rRNAs from iPNBs led to the disassembly of iPNBs. We found that B23 transfer was dependent on the synthesis of pre-rRNA molecules in nucleoli; these pre-rRNA molecules interacted with B23 and led to its accumulation within nucleoli. The transfer of B23 between iPNBs and nucleoli was accomplished through a nucleoplasmic pool of B23, and increased nucleoplasmic B23 content retarded disassembly, whereas B23 depletion accelerated disassembly. Our results suggest that iPNB disassembly and nucleolus assembly might be coupled through RNA-dependent exchange of nucleolar proteins, creating a highly dynamic system with long-distance correlations between spatially distinct processes.
