Abstract:
Ribonuclease was extracted from <i>Poa pratensis</i> seeds with 0.1 M acetate buffer, pH 5.1, and then precipitated with alcohol. The enzyme was separated into 5 fractions (I-V) after chromatography on DEAE-cellulose at pH 5.1. The enzymes were stable at 50°C, at pH 7.1. The activity of ribonucleases I, II, III and V were optimal at pH 7.1-7.3, and that of ribonuclease IV at pH 8.1. Ali enzymes were inhibited by Ca<sup>2+</sup> and EDTA. Mg<sup>2+</sup> inhibited the activity of ribonucleases II, III, IV, and had no influence on that of ribonucleases I and V. Ribonucleases IV and V showed only one activity band in disc electrophoresis, whereas ribonucleases, I, II and III were found to be heterogenous.

Abstract:
Approx. 2% of the Neisseria meningitidis genome consists of small DNA insertion sequences known as Correia or nemis elements, which feature TIRs (terminal inverted repeats) of 26–27 bp in length. Elements interspersed with coding regions are co-transcribed with flanking genes into mRNAs, processed at double-stranded RNA structures formed by TIRs. N. meningitidis RNase III (endoribonuclease III) is sufficient to process nemis+ RNAs. RNA hairpins formed by nemis with the same termini (26/26 and 27/27 repeats) are cleaved. By contrast, bulged hairpins formed by 26/27 repeats inhibit cleavage, both in vitro and in vivo. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays, all hairpin types formed similar retarded complexes upon incubation with RNase III. The levels of corresponding nemis+ and nemis− mRNAs, and the relative stabilities of RNA segments processed from nemis+ transcripts in vitro, may both vary significantly.

Abstract:
Abstract Type III CRISPR systems synthesise cyclic oligoadenylate (cOA) second messengers in response to viral infection of bacteria and archaea, potentiating an immune response by binding and activating ancillary effector nucleases such as Csx1. As these effectors are not specific for invading nucleic acids, a prolonged activation can result in cell dormancy or death. Some archaeal species encode a specialised ring nuclease enzyme (Crn1) to degrade cyclic tetra-adenylate (cA4) and deactivate the ancillary nucleases. Some archaeal viruses and bacteriophage encode a potent ring nuclease anti-CRISPR, AcrIII-1, to rapidly degrade cA4 and neutralise immunity. Homologues of this enzyme (named Crn2) exist in type III CRISPR systems but are uncharacterised. Here we describe an unusual fusion between cA4-activated CRISPR ribonuclease (Csx1) and a cA4-degrading ring nuclease (Crn2) from Marinitoga piezophila. The protein has two binding sites that compete for the cA4 ligand, a canonical cA4-activated ribonuclease activity in the Csx1 domain and a potent cA4 ring nuclease activity in the C-terminal Crn2 domain. The cA4 binding affinities and activities of the two constituent enzymes in the fusion protein may have evolved to ensure a robust but time-limited cOA-activated ribonuclease activity that is finely tuned to cA4 levels as a second messenger of infection.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTSalmonella entericaserovar Typhimurium is a Gram-negative bacterium able to invade and replicate inside eukaryotic cells. To cope with the host defense mechanisms, the bacterium has to rapidly remodel its transcriptional status. Regulatory RNAs and ribonucleases are the factors that ultimately control the fate of mRNAs and final protein levels in the cell. There is growing evidence of the direct involvement of these factors in bacterial pathogenicity. In this report, we validate the use of aGalleria mellonelamodel inS. Typhimurium pathogenicity studies through the parallel analysis of a mutant with a mutation inhfq, a well-establishedSalmonellavirulence gene. The results obtained with this mutant are similar to the ones reported in a mouse model. Through the use of this insect model, we demonstrate a role for the main endoribonucleases RNase E and RNase III inSalmonellavirulence. These ribonuclease mutants show an attenuated virulence phenotype, impairment in motility, and reduced proliferation inside the host. Interestingly, the two mutants trigger a distinct immune response in the host, and the two mutations seem to have an impact on distinct bacterial functions.

Abstract:
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has been linked to chronic lung inflammation. Drosha ribonuclease III (DROSHA), a class 2 ribonuclease III enzyme, plays a key role in microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis. However, the mechanisms by which DROSHA affects the lung inflammation during idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) remain unclear. Here, we demonstrate that DROSHA regulates the absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) inflammasome activation during idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Both DROSHA and AIM2 protein expression were elevated in alveolar macrophages of patients with IPF. We also found that DROSHA and AIM2 protein expression were increased in alveolar macrophages of lung tissues in a mouse model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. DROSHA deficiency suppressed AIM2 inflammasome-dependent caspase-1 activation and interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 secretion in primary mouse alveolar macrophages and bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). Transduction of microRNA (miRNA) increased the formation of the adaptor apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a caspase recruitment domain (ASC) specks, which is required for AIM2 inflammasome activation in BMDMs. Our results suggest that DROSHA promotes AIM2 inflammasome activation-dependent lung inflammation during IPF.

Abstract:
As a type III ribonuclease (RNase III) specifically cleaving double-stranded RNA substrates into short fragments, Dicer is indispensable in a range of physi/pathologic processes, e.g., nutrient deprivation, hypoxia, or DNA damage. Therefore, much interest has been paid to the research of this protein as well as its products like microRNAs (miRNAs). The close relationship between Dicer levels and fluctuations of nutrient availability suggests that the protein participates in the regulation of systemic energy homeostasis. Through miRNAs, Dicer regulates the hypothalamic melanocortin-4 system and central autophagy promoting energy expenditure. Moreover, by influencing canonical energy sensors like adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) or mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), Dicer favors catabolism in the periphery. Taken together, Dicer might be targeted in the control of energy dysregulation. However, factors affecting its RNase activity should be noted. Firstly, modulation of structural integrity affects its role as a ribonuclease. Secondly, although previously known as a cytosolic endoribonuclease, evidence suggests Dicer can relocalize into the nucleus where it could also produce small RNAs. In this review, we probe into involvement of Dicer in energy homeostasis as well as its structural integrity or cellular distribution which affects its ability to produce miRNAs, in the hope of providing novel insights into its mechanism of action for future application.

Abstract:
Abstract Members of the ribonuclease III (RNase III) family regulate gene expression by processing double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). This family includes eukaryotic Dicer and Drosha enzymes that generate small dsRNAs in the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. The fungus Mucor lusitanicus, which causes the deadly infection mucormycosis, has a complex RNAi system encompassing a non-canonical RNAi pathway (NCRIP) that regulates virulence by degrading specific mRNAs. In this pathway, Dicer function is replaced by R3B2, an atypical class I RNase III, and small single-stranded RNAs (ssRNAs) are produced instead of small dsRNA as Dicer-dependent RNAi pathways. Here, we show that R3B2 forms a homodimer that binds to ssRNA and dsRNA molecules, but exclusively cuts ssRNA, in contrast to all known RNase III. The dsRNA cleavage inability stems from its unusual RNase III domain (RIIID) because its replacement by a canonical RIIID allows dsRNA processing. A crystal structure of R3B2 RIIID resembles canonical RIIIDs, despite the low sequence conservation. However, the groove that accommodates dsRNA in canonical RNases III is narrower in the R3B2 homodimer, suggesting that this feature could be responsible for the cleavage specificity for ssRNA. Conservation of this activity in R3B2 proteins from other mucormycosis-causing Mucorales fungi indicates an early evolutionary acquisition.

Abstract:
The ribonuclease III enzymes Drosha and Dicer are renowned for their central roles in the biogenesis of microRNAs (miRNAs). For many years, this has overshadowed the true versatility and importance of these enzymes in the processing of other RNA substrates. For example, Drosha also recognizes and cleaves messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and potentially ribosomal RNA. The cleavage of mRNAs occurs via recognition of secondary stem-loop structures similar to miRNA precursors, and is an important mechanism of repressing gene expression, particularly in progenitor/stem cell populations. On the other hand, Dicer also has critical roles in genome regulation and surveillance. These include the production of endogenous small interfering RNAs from many sources, and the degradation of potentially harmful short interspersed element and viral RNAs. These findings have sparked a renewed interest in these enzymes, and their diverse functions in biology.

Abstract:
Abstract MicroRNA-21 is expressed in bovine, murine, and human cumulus cells with its expression in murine and bovine cumulus cells correlated with oocyte developmental potential. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between cumulus cell MIR-21 and human oocyte developmental potential. These studies revealed that both the immature and mature forms of MicroRNA-21 (MIR-21-5p) were elevated in cumulus cells of oocytes that developed into blastocysts compared to cumulus cells of oocytes that arrested prior to blastocyst formation. This increase in MicroRNA-21 was observed regardless of whether the oocytes developed into euploid or aneuploid blastocysts. Moreover, MIR-21-5p levels in cumulus cells surrounding oocytes that either failed to mature or matured to metaphase II but failed to fertilize, were ≈50% less than the MIR-21-5p levels associated with oocytes that arrested prior to blastocyst formation. Why cumulus cells associated with oocytes of reduced developmental potential expressed less MIR-21-5p is unknown. It is unlikely due to reduced expression of either the receptors of growth differentiation factor 9 or rosha Ribonuclease III (DROSHA) and Dicer Ribonuclease III (DICER) which sequentially promote the conversion of immature forms of MicroRNA-21 to mature MicroRNA-21. Furthermore, cultured cumulus cells treated with a MIR-21-5p inhibitor had an increase in apoptosis and a corresponding increase in the expression of PTEN, a gene known to inhibit the AKT-dependent survival pathway in cumulus cells. These studies provide evidence for a role of MicroRNA-21 in human cumulus cells that influences the developmental potential of human oocytes.

Abstract:
Ribonuclease Dicer belongs to the family of RNase III endoribonucleases, the enzymes that specifically hydrolyze phosphodiester bonds found in double-stranded regions of RNAs. Dicer enzymes are mostly known for their essential role in the biogenesis of small regulatory RNAs. A typical Dicer-type RNase consists of a helicase domain, a domain of unknown function (DUF283), a PAZ (Piwi-Argonaute-Zwille) domain, two RNase III domains, and a double-stranded RNA binding domain; however, the domain composition of Dicers varies among species. Dicer and its homologues developed only in eukaryotes; nevertheless, the two enzymatic domains of Dicer, helicase and RNase III, display high sequence similarity to their prokaryotic orthologs. Evolutionary studies indicate that a combination of the helicase and RNase III domains in a single protein is a eukaryotic signature and is supposed to be one of the critical events that triggered the consolidation of the eukaryotic RNA interference. In this review, we provide the genetic insight into the domain organization and structure of Dicer proteins found in vertebrate and invertebrate animals, plants and fungi. We also discuss, in the context of the individual domains, domain deletion variants and partner proteins, a variety of Dicers’ functions not only related to small RNA biogenesis pathways.
