Phosphorylation of human Argonaute proteins affects small RNA binding

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Argonaute (Ago) proteins are highly conserved between species and constitute a direct-binding platform for small RNAs including short-interfering RNAs (siRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and Piwi interacting RNAs (piRNAs). Small RNAs function as guides whereasAgo proteins are the actual mediators of gene silencing. Although the major steps in RNA-guided gene silencing have been elucidated, not much is known about Ago-protein regulation. Here we report a comprehensive analysis of Ago2 phosphorylation in humancells. We find that the highly conserved tyrosine Y529, located in the small RNA 5'-end-binding pocket of Ago proteins can be phosphorylated. By substituting Y529 with a negatively charged glutamate (E) mimicking a phosphorylated tyrosine, we show that small RNA binding is strongly reduced. Our data suggest that a negatively charged phospho-tyrosine generates a repulsive force that prevents efficient binding of the negatively charged 5' phosphate of the small RNA
