RNA-Binding Protein Rnc1 Regulates Cell Length at Division and Acute Stress Response in Fission Yeast through Negative Feedback Modulation of the Stress-Activated Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Pathway
ABSTRACT RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play a major role during control of mRNA localization, stability, and translation and are central to most cellular processes. In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the multiple K homology (KH) domain RBP Rnc1 downregulates the activity of the cell integ...

In the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, the multiple K homology (KH) domain RBP Rnc1 downregulates the activity of the cell integrity pathway (CIP) via stabilization of pmp1+ mRNA, which encodes the Pmp1 phosphatase that inactivates Pmk1, the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) component of this signaling cascade. However, Rnc1 likely regulates the half-life/stability of additional mRNAs. We show that Rnc1 downregulates the activity of Sty1, the MAPK of the stress-activated MAPK pathway (SAPK), during control of cell length at division and recovery in response to acute stress. Importantly, this control strictly depends on Rnc1’s ability to bind mRNAs encoding activators (Wak1 MAPKKK, Wis1 MAPKK) and downregulators (Atf1 transcription factor, Pyp1 and Pyp2 phosphatases) of Sty1 phosphorylation through its KH domains. Moreover, Sty1 is responsible for Rnc1 phosphorylation in vivo at multiple phosphosites during growth and stress, and these modifications trigger Rnc1 for proper binding and destabilization of the above mRNA targets. Phosphorylation by Sty1 prompts Rnc1-dependent mRNA destabilization to negatively control SAPK signaling, thus revealing an additional feedback mechanism that allows precise tuning of MAPK activity during unperturbed cell growth and stress. IMPORTANCE Control of mRNA localization, stability, turnover, and translation by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) influences essential processes in all eukaryotes, including signaling by mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. We describe that in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe the RBP Rnc1 negatively regulates cell length at division during unperturbed growth and recovery after acute stress by reducing the activity of the MAPK Sty1, which regulates cell growth and differentiation during environmental cues. This mechanism relies on Rnc1 binding to specific mRNAs encoding both enhancers and negative regulators of Sty1 activity. Remarkably, multiple phosphorylation of Rnc1 by Sty1 favors RBP binding and destabilization of the above mRNAs. Thus, posttranscriptional modulation of MAP kinase signaling by RNA-binding proteins emerges as a major regulatory mechanism that dictates the growth cycle and cellular adaptation in response to the changing environment in eukaryotic organisms.Francisco Prieto-RuizJero Vicente-SolerAlejandro FrancoElisa Gómez-GilMarta Sánchez-MarinasBeatriz Vázquez-MarínRosa AliguéMarisa MadridSergio MorenoTeresa SotoJosé CansadoAmerican Society for MicrobiologyarticleMAP kinasesRNA-binding proteinsfission yeastMicrobiologyQR1-502ENmBio, Vol 11, Iss 1 (2020) |
