الترجمة هي آلية المشاركة في الفيزيوباثيا العديد من الاضطرابات الإنسان بما في ذلك العديد من الأمراض العصبية. على سبيل المثال في مرض باركنسون اقترحت عدة تقارير ضعف في الترجمة المرتبطة بطفرات وراثية 8،12،13. تتوفر لدراسة ترجمة ...

البروتينات هي العناصر الأساسية للحياة الخلوية وبالتالي في نطاق أكبر من الكائن الحي. وتضمن الجزء الأكبر من الوظائف الخلوية بما في ذلك الهيكل، والنقل، والحفز رد فعل، والتنظيم، التعبير الجيني الخ التعبير عنها هو نتيجة لآلية معقدة للترجمة السماح للتحويل من مرنا في البروتين. يخضع ترجمة لضوابط مختلفة للتكيف وتنظيم التعبير الجيني وفقا لاحتياجات الخلية، أثناء التطور والتمايز، والشيخوخة، والضغوط النفسية أو المظاهر المرضية. وتنقسم الترجمة إلى 3 مراحل (بدء، واستطالة وإنهاء) ويعرض 3 أنظمة الترجمة بدء من أجل الاستجابة لهذه الاحتياجات: تعتمد على كأب، وقبعة مستقل عبر القطاعية دخول الريبوسوم الداخلية (IRES) الهياكل ومعززات ترجمة الحد الأقصى المستقلة ( CITE). ويتم تحويل معظم مرنا حقيقية النواة في سقف DEPEndent الطريقة عبر 7-methylguanosine سقف 5&#39;-ثلاثي الفوسفات التي هي بمثابة ميزة التعرف خلال تخليق البروتين. هذا الغطاء بربط eIF4E، وهو مكون من مجمع eIF4F مع eIF4G1 وeIF4A. يرتبط مع شركاء آخرين مثل بولي (A) بروتين (PABP)، eIF2-GTP-MET-الحمض الريبي النووي النقال الأرصاد الجوية، هذه العوامل ترجمة بدء تسمح لالتعميم مرنا وتحسين إمكانية الوصول إلى أشكال 43S معقدة حتى بدء أغسطس كودون الاعتراف 1. هذا الحدث يناظر نهاية أي ترجمة بدء، فإن الخطوة الأولى من الترجمة. يستخدم ترجمة الحد الأقصى المستقل ترميز مرنا لالبروتينات الضرورية في ظل ظروف أكد أن تحفز لتكاثر الخلايا المثال وموت الخلايا المبرمج. وتنطوي هذه الآلية الهياكل الثانوية في مرنا 5&#39;- المنطقة غير المترجمة (UTR) دعا IRES، ونهاية كربوكسي محطة من eIF4G1 المرتبطة eIF4A ومجمع 43S. الربط هذا 43S قبل الشروع جomplex إلى IRES يبدأ الترجمة سقف مستقلة دون الحاجة إلى eIF4E عامل 2،3. وأخيرا، آلية ترجمة أخرى لا تزال غير مفهومة جيدا تدعم هذا النشاط ترجمة الحد الأقصى مستقل في ظل ظروف وشدد عبر CITE الهياكل التي تقع داخل مرنا UTR 4. من خلال هذه الأنماط المختلفة للترجمة اختلاف خطوات البدء فيها، والترجمة تلعب دورا حاسما في توازن الخلايا وأي تغيير في واحدة من هذه العمليات وبذلك تؤثر على الكائن الحي مع الصغيرة لتأثيرات واسعة النطاق. في الواقع، والشروع خطوة معدل الحد الذي يحكم عمليات الترجمة الصحيحة من مرنا في البروتينات وبالتالي فهو هدفا للعديد من الضوابط ونقاط المادة 5. ما إذا كان لهذا الأخير أو لمكونات هذه العمليات، إذا كان أحد اتضح أن تكون معيبة، وسوف التشويش على التوازن القائم في الخلية، وبالتالي يمكن أن تؤدي إلى كوندي مرضيةستعقد. في هذا السياق، وقد شاركت طفرات في عوامل الترجمة في العديد من الاضطرابات بما في ذلك الاضطرابات العصبية مثل `اعتلال بيضاء الدماغ مع التلاشي matter&#39; الأبيض (eIF2B1-5 فرعية) 6، في متلازمة والكوت-Rallison (ترميز الجين EIF2AK3 لرفع معنوياته) 7، وربما في مرض (eIF4G1 p.R1205H) باركنسون 8. ولذلك فمن المهم إجراء الدراسات الخلوية والجزيئية لهذه البروتينات متحولة إلى زيادة معرفتنا على تطور المرض وعلى العملية العامة لترجمة المبادرة. لتنفيذ هذه الدراسات، فمن الضروري اختيار النماذج الأكثر ملائمة لمراقبة آثار هذه الطفرات القيطم المورق تتكيف البويضات بشكل خاص نظرا لخصائصها الفسيولوجية والبيوكيميائية: التزامن الفسيولوجية (سدت في المرحلة G2 من دورة الخلية) ، قدرة عالية من تخليق البروتين (200-400 نانوغرام / اليوم / البويضة)، وعدد كبير من شركة النفط العمانية المستخرجytes من نفس الحيوان (800-1،000 البويضات / أنثى) وحجم الخلية (1،2-1،4 مم في القطر) مما يسهل التلاعب بهم. Microinjection من البويضات القيطم مع تصنيعه مرنا يمكن بسهولة أن يؤديها لتشريح الخطوات الترجمة. في هذا الرأي أنه يقدم مزايا أخرى. ونظرا لسرعة الانقسام الاختزالي التقدم والترجمة مرنا بعد microinjection (~ 24 ساعة)، وتمثل القيطم البويضة نظام سريع مقارنة بأنظمة أعيد الخلوية (المستخرج من القولونية والجراثيم القمح أو الأرانب الخلايا الشبكية ...) التي مرنا هو ترجم بمعدل ترجمة خفض وبسرعة أقل. لذلك، فإن آثار الطفرة التي أدخلت في مرنا يكون سريعا ملاحظتها ودراستها بسهولة في العديد من البويضات. ميزة أخرى من البويضات القيطم هي أن من mRNAs الأمهات الكامنة ومنعت ترجمة البروتين قبل التحفيز البروجسترون. إضافة البروجسترون هو بالتالي وسيلة جيدة للتحكم في الحث الترجمة. ص حشويةolyadenylation لا تحدث أثناء oogenesis. وهي تبدأ خلال نضوج البويضة في البويضات حفز البروجسترون في النظام الزمني وتستمر طوال التنمية في وقت مبكر، ويمكن استخدامها لدراسة الخطوات المختلفة للترجمة. وتذييل بعديد الأدينيلات من موس مرنا هو من بين أول من تحدث وأنه ينتمي مع أورورا A / EG2، هيستون، مثل B4 مرنا لفئة من الجينات &quot;النضج المبكر&quot; على النحو المحدد في تشارلزورث وآخرون (2004) 9. تحريض متعدية مرنا &quot;المتأخرة&quot; مثل السيكلين A1 و B1 السيكلين يحدث في وقت قريب من انهيار حويصلة جرثومي (GVBD). موس مرنا يشفر كيناز سيرين / ثريونين البروتين. ترجمته أمر بالغ الأهمية لأنه يحرض على MAP كيناز شلال الذي ينشط بشكل غير مباشر على نضوج البويضة. في الواقع، في استجابة لهرمون البروجسترون، مما يعزز تذييل بعديد الأدينيلات من موس مرنا خلال عملية تنطوي أورورا A / EG2 البروتينات التنظيمية وغيرها من RNA ملزم البروتينات مع الالبريد 3&#39;UTR من موس مرنا. هذا تذييل بعديد الأدينيلات زيادة موس مرنا يؤدي إلى زيادة مستوى البروتين موس، والذي بدوره ينشط MEK1. هذه العملية تتوسط تفعيل الخلية التي تنظمها إشارات كيناز 2 (ERK2) (الشكل 1). وهذا يمكن أن يشير إلى سلسلة ثم تؤدي إلى نضوج M-مرحلة تعزيز العوامل، مجمع شكلتها السيكلين B وCdc2 كيناز، والنتائج في نهاية المطاف في استئناف الانتصافي. لذلك في القيطم المورق البويضات، يمكن بسهولة أن تستخدم دراسة مرنا الأمهات مثل موس لاختبار ترجمتها مع عدة نقاط النهاية من تذييل بعديد الأدينيلات بكفاءة لترجمة عدة موس يشير مكونات، بما في ذلك أيضا تحديد معدل GVBD. هذا النظام هو بالتالي مثيرة للاهتمام لتقييم النتائج الأولى للطفرات في عوامل ترجمة الشروع دون تدخل من كتب حديثا مرنا أو الكفاءة ترنسفكأيشن، المشاكل التي تحدث في كثير من الأحيان مع eukaryدراسات الخلايا أذني. هنا، يتم إنشاء بروتوكول حيث يتم microinjected من mRNAs eIF4G1 متحولة في القيطم المورق البويضات ويتم اختبار الترجمة مرنا الأمهات. في وجود عيب في GVBD التقدم، موس مرنا تذييل بعديد الأدينيلات وهو أمر ضروري للتقدم من خلال دورة الخلية الانتصافي بويضة وللترجمة اللاحقة من mRNAs الدرجة المبكرة والمتأخرة يتم التأكد. ودرس الفسفرة أورورا A / EG2 وERK أيضا لتأكيد نتيجة لموس deregulation.Thus، البويضات القيطم تمثل وسيلة بسيطة لتحليل الخطوات المختلفة الترجمة مرنا.

Quantitative Immunofluorescence to Measure Global Localized Translation

The mechanisms regulating mRNA translation are involved in various biological processes, such as germ line development, cell differentiation, and organogenesis, as well as in multiple diseases. Numerous publications have convincingly shown that specific mechanisms tightly regulate mRNA translation. Increased interest in the translation-induced regulation of protein expression has led to the development of novel methods to study and follow de novo protein synthesis in cellulo. However, most of these methods are complex, making them costly and often limiting the number of mRNA targets that can be studied. This manuscript proposes a method that requires only basic reagents and a confocal fluorescence imaging system to measure and visualize the changes in mRNA translation that occur in any cell line under various conditions. This method was recently used to show localized translation in the subcellular structures of adherent cells over a short period of time, thus offering the possibility of visualizing de novo translation for a short period during a variety of biological processes or of validating changes in translational activity in response to specific stimuli.

This manuscript describes a method to visualize and quantify localized translation events in subcellular compartments. The approach proposed in this manuscript requires a basic confocal imaging system and reagents and is rapid and cost-effective.

Polysome Profiling in Leishmania, Human Cells and Mouse Testis

Proper protein expression at the right time and in the right amounts is the basis of normal cell function and survival in a fast-changing environment. For a long time, the gene expression studies were dominated by research on the transcriptional level. However, the steady-state levels of mRNAs do not correlate well with protein production, and the translatability of mRNAs varies greatly depending on the conditions. In some organisms, like the parasite Leishmania, the protein expression is regulated mostly at the translational level. Recent studies demonstrated that protein translation dysregulation is associated with cancer, metabolic, neurodegenerative and other human diseases. Polysome profiling is a powerful method to study protein translation regulation. It allows to measure the translational status of individual mRNAs or examine translation on a genome-wide scale. The basis of this technique is the separation of polysomes, ribosomes, their subunits and free mRNAs during centrifugation of a cytoplasmic lysate through a sucrose gradient. Here, we present a universal polysome profiling protocol used on three different models - parasite Leishmania major, cultured human cells and animal tissues. Leishmania cells freely grow in suspension and cultured human cells grow in adherent monolayer, while mouse testis represents an animal tissue sample. Thus, the technique is adapted to all of these sources. The protocol for the analysis of polysomal fractions includes detection of individual mRNA levels by RT-qPCR, proteins by Western blot and analysis of ribosomal RNAs by electrophoresis. The method can be further extended by examination of mRNAs association with the ribosome on a transcriptome level by deep RNA-seq and analysis of ribosome-associated proteins by mass spectroscopy of the fractions. The method can be easily adjusted to other biological models.

Polysome Profiling in Leishmania, Human Cells and Mouse Testis

The overall goal of polysome profiling technique is analysis of translational activity of individual mRNAs or transcriptome mRNAs during protein synthesis. The method is important for studies of protein synthesis regulation, translation activation and repression in health and multiple human diseases.

Defining the Program of Maternal mRNA Translation during In vitro Maturation using a Single Oocyte Reporter Assay

Events associated with oocyte nuclear maturation have been well described. However, much less is known about the molecular pathways and processes that take place in the cytoplasm in preparation for fertilization and acquisition of totipotency. During oocyte maturation, changes in gene expression depend exclusively on the translation and degradation of maternal messenger RNAs (mRNAs) rather than on transcription. Execution of the translational program, therefore, plays a key role in establishing oocyte developmental competence to sustain embryo development. This paper is part of a focus on defining the program of maternal mRNA translation that takes place during meiotic maturation and at the oocyte-to-zygote transition. In this method paper, a strategy is presented to study the regulation of translation of target mRNAs during in vitro oocyte maturation. Here, a Ypet reporter is fused to the 3&#39; untranslated region (UTR) of the gene of interest and then micro-injected into oocytes together with polyadenylated mRNA encoding for mCherry to control for injected volume. By using time-lapse microscopy to measure reporter accumulation, translation rates are calculated at different transitions during oocyte meiotic maturation. Here, the protocols for oocyte isolation and injection, time-lapse recording, and data analysis have been described, using the Ypet/interleukin-7 (IL-7)-3&#39; UTR reporter as an example.

This protocol describes a reporter assay to study the regulation of mRNA translation in single oocytes during in vitro maturation.

An Efficient Protocol to Assess ERK Activity Modulation in Early Zebrafish Noonan Syndrome Models via Live FRET Microscopy and Immunofluorescence

RASopathies are genetic syndromes caused by ERK hyperactivation and resulting in multisystemic diseases that can also lead to cancer predisposition. Despite a broad genetic heterogeneity, germline gain-of-function mutations in key regulators of the RAS-MAPK pathway underlie the majority of the cases, and, thanks to advanced sequencing techniques, potentially pathogenic variants affecting the RAS-MAPK pathway continue to be identified. Functional validation of the pathogenicity of these variants, essential for accurate diagnosis, requires fast and reliable protocols, preferably in vivo. Given the scarcity of effective treatments in early childhood, such protocols, especially if scalable in cost-effective animal models, can be instrumental in offering a preclinical ground for drug repositioning/repurposing. 
Here we describe step-by-step the protocol for rapid generation of transient RASopathy models in zebrafish embryos and direct inspection of live disease-associated ERK activity changes occurring already during gastrulation through real-time multispectral F&#246;rster resonance energy transfer (FRET) imaging. The protocol uses a transgenic ERK reporter recently established and integrated with the hardware of commercial microscopes. We provide an example application for Noonan syndrome (NS) zebrafish models obtained by expression of the Shp2D61G. We describe a straightforward method that enables registration of ERK signal change in the NS fish model before and after pharmacological signal modulation by available low-dose MEK inhibitors. We detail how to generate, retrieve, and assess ratiometric FRET signals from multispectral acquisitions before and after treatment and how to cross-validate the results via classical immunofluorescence on whole embryos at early stages. We then describe how, via examining standard morphometric parameters, to query late changes in embryo shape, indicative of a resulting impairment of gastrulation, in the same embryos whose ERK activity is assessed by live FRET at 6 h post fertilization.

RASopathies are multisystem genetic syndromes caused by RAS-MAPK pathway hyperactivation. Potentially pathogenic variants awaiting validation emerge continuously while poor preclinical evidence limits therapy. Here, we describe our in vivo protocol to test and cross-validate RASopathy-associated ERK activation levels and its pharmacological modulation during embryogenesis by live FRET imaging in Teen-reporter zebrafish.

Measurement of Specific Mycobacterial Mistranslation Rates with Gain-of-function Reporter Systems

The translation of genes into proteins is prone to errors. Although the average rate of translational error in model systems is estimated to be 1/10,000 per codon, the actual error rates vary widely, depending on the species, environment, and codons being studied. We have previously shown that mycobacteria use a two-step pathway for the generation of aminoacylated glutamine and asparagine tRNAs and that this is specifically associated with relatively high error rates due to the modulation of mistranslation rates by an essential component of the pathway, the amidotransferase GatCAB. We modified a previously employed Renilla-Firefly dual-luciferase system that had been used to measure mistranslation rates in Escherichia coli for use in mycobacteria to measure specific mistranslation rates of glutamate at glutamine codons and aspartate for asparagine codons. Although this reporter system was suitable for the accurate estimation of specific error rates, lack of sensitivity and requirements for excessive manipulation steps made it unsuitable for high-throughput applications. Therefore, we developed a second gain-of-function reporter system, using Nluc luciferase and green fluorescent protein (GFP), which is more amenable to medium/high-throughput settings. We used this system to identify kasugamycin as a small molecule that can decrease mycobacterial mistranslation. Although the reporters that we describe here have been used to measure specific types of mycobacterial mistranslation, they may be modified to measure other types of mistranslation in a number of model systems.

In this article, we present two complementary methods to measure specific rates of translational error and mistranslation in the model mycobacterium, Mycobacterium smegmatis, using gain-of-function reporter systems. The methods can be employed to measure accurate error rates in low throughput or relative error rates in a more high-throughput setting.

Functional Evaluation of Olfactory Pathways in Living Xenopus Tadpoles

Xenopus tadpoles offer a unique platform to investigate the function of the nervous system. They provide multiple experimental advantages, such as accessibility to numerous imaging approaches, electrophysiological techniques and behavioral assays. The Xenopus tadpole olfactory system is particularly well suited to investigate the function of synapses established during normal development or reformed after injury. Here, we describe methodologies to evaluate the processing of olfactory information in living Xenopus larvae. We outline a combination of in vivo measurements of presynaptic calcium responses in glomeruli of the olfactory bulb with olfactory-guided behavior assays. Methods can be combined with the transection of olfactory nerves to study the rewiring of synaptic connectivity. Experiments are presented using both wild-type and genetically modified animals expressing GFP reporters in central nervous system cells. Application of the approaches described to genetically modified tadpoles can be useful for unraveling the molecular bases that define vertebrate behavior.

In Vivo Modeling of the Morbid Human Genome using Danio rerio

Here, we present methods for the development of assays to query potentially clinically significant nonsynonymous changes using in vivo complementation in zebrafish. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) are a useful animal system due to their experimental tractability; embryos are transparent to enable facile viewing, undergo rapid development ex vivo, and can be genetically manipulated.1 These aspects have allowed for significant advances in the analysis of embryogenesis, molecular processes, and morphogenetic signaling. Taken together, the advantages of this vertebrate model make zebrafish highly amenable to modeling the developmental defects in pediatric disease, and in some cases, adult-onset disorders. Because the zebrafish genome is highly conserved with that of humans (~70% orthologous), it is possible to recapitulate human disease states in zebrafish. This is accomplished either through the injection of mutant human mRNA to induce dominant negative or gain of function alleles, or utilization of morpholino (MO) antisense oligonucleotides to suppress genes to mimic loss of function variants. Through complementation of MO-induced phenotypes with capped human mRNA, our approach enables the interpretation of the deleterious effect of mutations on human protein sequence based on the ability of mutant mRNA to rescue a measurable, physiologically relevant phenotype. Modeling of the human disease alleles occurs through microinjection of zebrafish embryos with MO and/or human mRNA at the 1-4 cell stage, and phenotyping up to seven days post fertilization (dpf). This general strategy can be extended to a wide range of disease phenotypes, as demonstrated in the following protocol. We present our established models for morphogenetic signaling, craniofacial, cardiac, vascular integrity, renal function, and skeletal muscle disorder phenotypes, as well as others.

In Vivo Modeling of the Morbid Human Genome using Danio rerio

Here, we present a systematic approach for developing physiologically relevant, sensitive and specific in vivo assays for interpreting variation in human pathology. Transient genetic manipulation via microinjection of WT and mutant human mRNA and morpholino (MO) antisense oligonucleotides harness the tractability of the developing zebrafish embryo to rapidly assay pathogenic mutations, especially, but not exclusively, in the context of human developmental disorders.

Production of Xenopus tropicalis Egg Extracts to Identify Microtubule-associated RNAs

Many organisms localize mRNAs to specific subcellular destinations to spatially and temporally control gene expression. Recent studies have demonstrated that the majority of the transcriptome is localized to a nonrandom position in cells and embryos. One approach to identify localized mRNAs is to biochemically purify a cellular structure of interest and to identify all associated transcripts. Using recently developed high-throughput sequencing technologies it is now straightforward to identify all RNAs associated with a subcellular structure. To facilitate transcript identification it is necessary to work with an organism with a fully sequenced genome. One attractive system for the biochemical purification of subcellular structures are egg extracts produced from the frog Xenopus laevis. However, X. laevis currently does not have a fully sequenced genome, which hampers transcript identification. In this article we describe a method to produce egg extracts from a related frog, X. tropicalis, that has a fully sequenced genome. We provide details for microtubule polymerization, purification and transcript isolation. While this article describes a specific method for identification of microtubule-associated transcripts, we believe that it will be easily applied to other subcellular structures and will provide a powerful method for identification of localized RNAs.

Analysis of Translation in the Developing Mouse Brain using Polysome Profiling

The proper development of the mammalian brain relies on a fine balance of neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation into different neural cell types. This balance is tightly controlled by gene expression that is fine-tuned at multiple levels, including transcription, post-transcription and translation. In this regard, a growing body of evidence highlights a critical role of translational regulation in coordinating neural stem cell fate decisions. Polysome fractionation is a powerful tool for the assessment of mRNA translational status at both global and individual gene levels. Here, we present an in-house polysome profiling pipeline to assess translational efficiency in cells from the developing mouse cerebral cortex. We describe the protocols for sucrose gradient preparation, tissue lysis, ultracentrifugation and fractionation-based analysis of mRNA translational status.

The development of the mammalian brain requires proper control of gene expression at the level of translation. Here, we describe a polysome profiling system with an easy-to-assemble sucrose gradient-making and fractionation platform to assess the translational status of mRNAs in the developing brain.

Assessment of Selective mRNA Translation in Mammalian Cells by Polysome Profiling

Regulation of protein synthesis represents a key control point in cellular response to stress. In particular, discreet RNA regulatory elements were shown to allow to selective translation of specific mRNAs, which typically encode for proteins required for a particular stress response. Identification of these mRNAs, as well as the characterization of regulatory mechanisms responsible for selective translation has been at the forefront of molecular biology for some time. Polysome profiling is a cornerstone method in these studies. The goal of polysome profiling is to capture mRNA translation by immobilizing actively translating ribosomes on different transcripts and separate the resulting polyribosomes by ultracentrifugation on a sucrose gradient, thus allowing for a distinction between highly translated transcripts and poorly translated ones. These can then be further characterized by traditional biochemical and molecular biology methods. Importantly, combining polysome profiling with high throughput genomic approaches allows for a large scale analysis of translational regulation.

The ability of cells to adapt to stress is crucial for their survival. Regulation of mRNA translation is one such adaptation strategy, providing for rapid regulation of the proteome. Here, we provide a standardized polysome profiling protocol to identify specific mRNAs that are selectively translated under stress conditions.
