Quantitative proteomics reveals the dynamic proteome landscape of zebrafish embryos during the maternal-to-zygotic transition. iScience 2024; 27:109944. [PMID: 38784018 PMCID: PMC11111832 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.109944] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is central to early embryogenesis. However, its underlying molecular mechanisms are still not well described. Here, we revealed the expression dynamics of 5,000 proteins across four stages of zebrafish embryos during MZT, representing one of the most systematic surveys of proteome landscape of the zebrafish embryos during MZT. Nearly 700 proteins were differentially expressed and were divided into six clusters according to their expression patterns. The proteome expression profiles accurately reflect the main events that happen during the MZT, i.e., zygotic genome activation (ZGA), clearance of maternal mRNAs, and initiation of cellular differentiation and organogenesis. MZT is modulated by many proteins at multiple levels in a collaborative fashion, i.e., transcription factors, histones, histone-modifying enzymes, RNA helicases, and P-body proteins. Significant discrepancies were discovered between zebrafish proteome and transcriptome profiles during the MZT. The proteome dynamics database will be a valuable resource for bettering our understanding of MZT.

Endocrine and Transcriptome Changes Associated with Testicular Growth and Differentiation in Atlantic Salmon ( Salmo salar L.). Curr Issues Mol Biol 2024; 46:5337-5351. [PMID: 38920991 PMCID: PMC11202266 DOI: 10.3390/cimb46060319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/15/2024] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Sexual maturation of Atlantic salmon males is marked by dramatic endocrine changes and rapid growth of the testes, resulting in an increase in the gonad somatic index (GSI). We examined the association of gonadal growth with serum sex steroids, as well as pituitary and testicular gene expression levels, which were assessed with a DNA oligonucleotide microarray. The testes transcriptome was stable in males with a GSI < 0.08% despite the large difference between the smallest and the largest gonads. Fish with a GSI ≥ 0.23% had 7-17 times higher serum levels of five male steroids and a 2-fold increase in progesterone, without a change in cortisol and related steroids. The pituitary transcriptome showed an upregulation of the hormone-coding genes that control reproduction and behavior, and structural rearrangement was indicated by the genes involved in synaptic transmission and the differentiation of neurons. The observed changes in the abundance of testicular transcripts were caused by the regulation of transcription and/or disproportional growth, with a greater increase in the germinative compartment. As these factors could not be separated, the transcriptome results are presented as higher or lower specific activities (HSA and LSA). LSA was observed in 4268 genes, including many genes involved in various immune responses and developmental processes. LSA also included genes with roles in female reproduction, germinal cell maintenance and gonad development, responses to endocrine and neural regulation, and the biosynthesis of sex steroids. Two functional groups prevailed among HSA: structure and activity of the cilia (95 genes) and meiosis (34 genes). The puberty of A. salmon testis is marked by the predominance of spermatogenesis, which displaces other processes; masculinization; and the weakening of external regulation. Results confirmed the known roles of many genes involved in reproduction and pointed to uncharacterized genes that deserve attention as possible regulators of sexual maturation.

Abstract
Obesity has significant repercussions for female reproductive health, including adverse effects on oocyte quality, fertility, embryo development and offspring health. Here, we showed that intermittent fasting (IF) has several notable effects on follicular development, oocyte development and maturation and offspring health in obese mice. IF treatment prevents obesity-associated germline-soma communication defects, mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative damage, apoptosis, and spindle/chromosomal disruption. RNA-sequencing analysis of oocytes from normal diet (ND), high-fat diet (HFD), and HFD + IF mice indicated that IF treatment improved mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation function and mRNA storage and translation, which was potentially mediated by the Smith-like family member 14 B (LSM14B). Knockdown of LSM14B by siRNA injection in oocytes from ND mice recapitulates all the translation, mitochondrial dysfunction and meiotic defect phenotypes of oocytes from HFD mice. Remarkably, the injection of Lsm14b mRNA into oocytes from HFD mice rescued the translation, mitochondrial dysfunction and meiotic defect phenotypes. These results demonstrated that dysfunction in the oocyte translation program is associated with obesity-induced meiotic defects, while IF treatment increased LSM14B expression and maternal mRNA translation and restored oocyte quality. This research has important implications for understanding the effects of obesity on female reproductive health and offers a potential nonpharmacological intervention to improve oocyte quality and fertility in obese individuals.

Abstract
The generation of mature and healthy oocytes is the most critical event in the entire female reproductive process, and the mechanisms regulating this process remain to be studied. Here, we demonstrate that Smith-like (LSM) family member 14B (LSM14B) regulates oocyte maturation, and the loss of LSM14B in mouse ovaries leads to abnormal oocyte MII arrest and female infertility. Next, we find the aberrant transcriptional activation, indicated by abnormal non-surrounded nucleolus and surrounded nucleolus oocyte proportions, and abnormal chromosome assembly and segregation in Lsm14b-deficient mouse oocytes. The global transcriptome analysis suggests that many transcripts involved in cytoplasmic processing body (P-body) function are altered in Lsm14b-deficient mouse oocytes. Deletion of Lsm14b results in the expression and/or localization changes of P-body components (such as LSM14A, DCP1A, and 4E-T). Notably, DDX6, a key component of the P-body, is downregulated and accumulates in the nuclei in Lsm14b-deficient mouse oocytes. Taken together, our data suggest that LSM14B links mouse oocyte maturation to female fertility through the regulation of the P-body.

Abstract
Fully grown oocytes remain transcriptionally quiescent, yet many maternal mRNAs are synthesized and retained in growing oocytes. We now know that maternal mRNAs are stored in a structure called the mitochondria-associated ribonucleoprotein domain (MARDO). However, the components and functions of MARDO remain elusive. Here, we found that LSM14B knockout prevents the proper storage and timely clearance of mRNAs (including Cyclin B1, Btg4 and other mRNAs that are translationally activated during meiotic maturation), specifically by disrupting MARDO assembly during oocyte growth and meiotic maturation. With decreased levels of storage and clearance, the LSM14B knockout oocytes failed to enter meiosis II, ultimately resulting in female infertility. Our results demonstrate the function of LSM14B in MARDO assembly, and couple the MARDO with mRNA clearance and oocyte meiotic maturation.

Abstract
Controlled mRNA storage and stability is essential for oocyte meiosis and early embryonic development. However, how to regulate mRNA storage and stability in mammalian oogenesis remains elusive. Here we showed that LSM14B, a component of membraneless compartments including P-body-like granules and mitochondria-associated ribonucleoprotein domain (MARDO) in germ cell, is indispensable for female fertility. To reveal loss of LSM14B disrupted primordial follicle assembly and caused mRNA reduction in non-growing oocytes, which was concomitant with the impaired assembly of P-body-like granules. 10× Genomics single-cell RNA-sequencing and immunostaining were performed. Meanwhile, we conducted RNA-seq analysis of GV-stage oocytes and found that Lsm14b deficiency not only impaired the maternal mRNA accumulation but also disrupted the translation in fully grown oocytes, which was closely associated with dissolution of MARDO components. Moreover, Lsm14b-deficient oocytes reassembled a pronucleus containing decondensed chromatin after extrusion of the first polar body, through compromising the activation of maturation promoting factor, while the defects were restored via WEE1/2 inhibitor. Together, our findings reveal that Lsm14b plays a pivotal role in mammalian oogenesis by specifically controlling of oocyte mRNA storage and stability.

Abstract
Mammalian oogenesis features reliance on the mRNAs produced and stored during early growth phase. These are essential for producing an oocyte competent to undergo meiotic maturation and embryogenesis later when oocytes are transcriptionally silent. The fate of maternal mRNAs hence ensures the success of oogenesis and the quality of the resulting eggs. Nevertheless, how the fate of maternal mRNAs is determined remains largely elusive. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are crucial regulators of oogenesis, yet the identity of the full complement of RBPs expressed in oocytes is unknown. Here, a global view of oocyte-expressed RBPs is presented: mRNA-interactome capture identifies 1396 RBPs in mouse oocytes. An analysis of one of these RBPs, LSM family member 14 (LSM14B), demonstrates that this RBP is specific to oocytes and associated with many networks essential for oogenesis. Deletion of Lsm14b results in female-specific infertility and a phenotype characterized by oocytes incompetent to complete meiosis and early embryogenesis. LSM14B serves as an interaction hub for proteins and mRNAs throughout oocyte development and regulates translation of a subset of its bound mRNAs. Therefore, RNP complexes tethered by LSM14B are found exclusively in oocytes and are essential for the control of maternal mRNA fate and oocyte development.

Abstract
Full-grown oocytes are transcriptionally silent and must stably maintain the messenger RNAs (mRNAs) needed for oocyte meiotic maturation and early embryonic development. However, where and how mammalian oocytes store maternal mRNAs is unclear. Here, we report that mammalian oocytes accumulate mRNAs in a mitochondria-associated ribonucleoprotein domain (MARDO). MARDO assembly around mitochondria was promoted by the RNA-binding protein ZAR1 and directed by an increase in mitochondrial membrane potential during oocyte growth. MARDO foci coalesced into hydrogel-like matrices that clustered mitochondria. Maternal mRNAs stored in the MARDO were translationally repressed. Loss of ZAR1 disrupted the MARDO, dispersed mitochondria, and caused a premature loss of MARDO-localized mRNAs. Thus, a mitochondria-associated membraneless compartment controls mitochondrial distribution and regulates maternal mRNA storage, translation, and decay to ensure fertility in mammals.

Abstract
Processing bodies (P-bodies) are ribonucleoprotein granules that contain mRNAs, RNA-binding proteins and effectors of mRNA turnover. While P-bodies have been reported to contain translationally repressed mRNAs, a causative role for P-bodies in regulating mRNA decay has yet to be established. Enhancer of decapping protein 4 (EDC4) is a core P-body component that interacts with multiple mRNA decay factors, including the mRNA decapping (DCP2) and decay (XRN1) enzymes. EDC4 also associates with the RNA endonuclease MARF1, an interaction that antagonizes the decay of MARF1-targeted mRNAs. How EDC4 interacts with MARF1 and how it represses MARF1 activity is unclear. In this study, we show that human MARF1 and XRN1 interact with EDC4 using analogous conserved short linear motifs in a mutually exclusive manner. While the EDC4–MARF1 interaction is required for EDC4 to inhibit MARF1 activity, our data indicate that the interaction with EDC4 alone is not sufficient. Importantly, we show that P-body architecture plays a critical role in antagonizing MARF1-mediated mRNA decay. Taken together, our study suggests that P-bodies can directly regulate mRNA turnover by sequestering an mRNA decay enzyme and preventing it from interfacing with and degrading targeted mRNAs.

Abstract
Alternative splicing (AS) contributes to gene diversification, but the AS program during germline development remains largely undefined. Here, we interrupted pre-mRNA splicing events controlled by epithelial splicing regulatory protein 1 (ESRP1) and found that it induced female infertility in mice. Esrp1 deletion perturbed spindle organization, chromosome alignment and metaphase-to-anaphase transformation in oocytes. The first polar body extrusion was blocked during oocyte meiosis owing to abnormal activation of spindle assembly checkpoint and insufficiency of anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome in Esrp1-knockout oocytes. Esrp1-knockout hampered follicular development and ovulation; eventually, premature ovarian failure occurred in six-month-old Esrp1-knockout mouse. Using single-cell RNA-seq analysis, 528 aberrant AS events of maternal mRNA transcripts were revealed and were preferentially associated with microtubule cytoskeletal organization. Notably, we found that loss of ESRP1 disturbed a comprehensive set of gene-splicing sites - including those within Trb53bp1, Rac1, Bora, Kif2c, Kif23, Ndel1, Kif3a, Cenpa and Lsm14b - that potentially caused abnormal spindle organization. Collectively, our findings provide the first report elucidating the ESRP1-mediated AS program of maternal mRNA transcripts, which may contribute to oocyte meiosis and female fertility in mice.

Abstract
The Sm proteins are a conserved protein family with Sm motifs. The family includes Sm and Sm-like proteins, which play important roles in pre-mRNA splicing. Most research on the Sm proteins have been conducted in herbaceous plants, and less in woody plants such as Dimocarpus longan (longan). And the embryo development status significantly affects the quality and yield of longan. In this study, we conducted a genome-wide analysis of longan Sm genes (DlSm) to clarify their roles during somatic embryogenesis (SE) and identified 29 Sm genes. Phylogenetic analysis deduced longan Sm proteins clustered into 17 phylogenetic groups with the homologous Sm proteins of Arabidopsis thaliana. We also analyzed the gene structures, motif compositions, and conserved domains of the longan Sm proteins. The promoter sequences of the DlSm genes contained many light, endosperm development, hormone, and temperature response elements, which suggested their possible functions. In the non-embryogenic callus(NEC) and during early SE in longan, the alternative splicing(AS) events of DlSm genes indicated that these genes may influence SE development by changing gene structures and sequences. The kinetin(KT) hormone, and blue and white light treatments affected the differentiation and growth of longan embryonic callus(EC) probably by affecting the AS events of DlSm genes. Expression profiles showed the possible functional divergence among Sm genes, and different hormones and light qualities affected their expression levels. The expression trends of the DlSm genes determined by RNA sequencing as fragments per kilobase of exon model per million mapped reads (FPKM) and by real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR) during early SE in longan showed that the expression of the DlSm genes was affected by the growth and differentiation of longan SE, and decreased as the somatic embryo differentiation progressed. The results will contributed to understanding the longan Sm gene family and provide a basis for future functional validation studies.

Abstract
The oocyte faces a particular challenge in terms of gene regulation. When oocytes resume meiosis at the end of the growth phase and prior to ovulation, the condensed chromatin state prevents the transcription of genes as they are required. Transcription is effectively silenced from the late germinal vesicle (GV) stage until embryonic genome activation (EGA) following fertilisation. Therefore, during its growth, the oocyte must produce the mRNA transcripts needed to fulfil its protein requirements during the active period of meiotic completion, fertilisation, and the maternal-to zygote-transition (MZT). After meiotic resumption, gene expression control can be said to be transferred from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, from transcriptional regulation to translational regulation. Maternal RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are the mediators of translational regulation and their role in oocyte maturation and early embryo development is vital. Understanding these mechanisms will provide invaluable insight into the oocyte's requirements for developmental competence, with important implications for the diagnosis and treatment of certain types of infertility. Here, we give an overview of post-transcriptional regulation in the oocyte, emphasising the current knowledge of mammalian RBP mechanisms, and develop the roles of these mechanisms in the timely activation and elimination of maternal transcripts.
