- W1987832177 abstract "MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key posttranscriptional regulators of biological pathways that govern lipid metabolic phenotypes. Recent advances in high-throughput small RNA sequencing technology have revealed the complex and dynamic repertoire of miRNAs. Specifically, it has been demonstrated that a single genomic locus can give rise to multiple, functionally distinct miRNA isoforms (isomiR). There are several mechanisms by which isomiRs can be generated, including processing heterogeneity and posttranscriptional modifications, such as RNA editing, exonuclease-mediated nucleotide trimming, and/or nontemplated nucleotide addition (NTA). NTAs are dominant at the 3′-end of a miRNA, are most commonly uridylation or adenlyation events, and are catalyzed by one or more of several nucleotidyl transferase enzymes. 3′ NTAs can affect miRNA stability and/or activity and are physiologically regulated, whereas modifications to the 5′-ends of miRNAs likely alter miRNA targeting activity. Recent evidence also suggests that the biogenesis of specific miRNAs, or small RNAs that act as miRNAs, can occur through unconventional mechanisms that circumvent key canonical miRNA processing steps. The unveiling of miRNA diversity has significantly added to our view of the complexity of miRNA function. In this review we present the current understanding of the biological relevance of isomiRs and their potential role in regulating lipid metabolism.

In this review we present the current understanding of the biological relevance of isomiRs and their potential role in regulating lipid metabolism. Systemic lipid homeostasis is governed by one of the most complex and multilayered metabolic networks, involving sensing and effector pathways, lipoproteins, and extracellular enzymes (1Jump D.B.

The pri-miRNA is cleaved by a nuclear RNase complex DROSHA/DGCR8, generating a precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) that has a hairpin-like secondary structure. The pre-miRNA is then exported via the exportin 5-dependent pathway to the cytoplasm, where it is subject to further enzymatic processing by DICER and its cofactors, producing a short dsRNA duplex (∼22 bp) (56Bartel D.P.

Mol. Cell Biol. 2005; 6: 376-385Crossref PubMed Scopus (1818) Google Scholar). One strand of the duplex (mature miRNA) is loaded onto the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), which it guides and tethers to target mRNAs in order to regulate their stability and/or translational efficacy (57Bartel D.P. MicroRNAs: target recognition and regulatory functions.Cell. 2009; 136: 215-233Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (13642) Google Scholar, 73Grimson A. Farh K.K. Johnston W.K.

Cell. 2007; 27: 91-105Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (2769) Google Scholar). Some miRNAs are generated by alternative mechanisms, but they may still play a significant role in lipid homeostasis. For example, certain miRNA clusters that are interspersed among Alu repeats in the genome have been shown to be transcribed by RNA Polymerase III (74Borchert G.M. Lanier W. Davidson B.L. RNA polymerase III transcribes human microRNAs.Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 2006; 13: 1097-1101Crossref PubMed Scopus (947) Google Scholar). Also, short-length introns can form hairpin-like structures upon nascent transcription and be processed by RNA splicing machinery, rather than by DROSHA, and cleaved into pre-miRNA products. This class of miRNAs is referred to as miRtrons, due to their unique biogenesis from intron-exon junctions (75Chong M.M. Zhang G. Cheloufi S. Neubert T.A. Hannon G.J. Littman D.R. Canonical and alternate functions of the microRNA biogenesis machinery.Genes Dev. 2010; 24: 1951-1960Crossref PubMed Scopus (151) Google Scholar, 76Ladewig E. Okamura K. Flynt A.S. Westholm J.O.

Mirtrons: microRNA biogenesis via splicing.Biochimie. 2011; 93: 1897-1904Crossref PubMed Scopus (158) Google Scholar). Although very few miRtrons are extensively conserved, they are present in both invertebrates and mammals, suggesting that they may have evolved independently along multiple lineages. A recent large-scale meta-analysis of hundreds of smRNA data sets has systematically identified ∼240 human miRtrons, many of them evolutionarily recent (76Ladewig E. Okamura K. Flynt A.S. Westholm J.O. Lai E.C. Discovery of hundreds of mirtrons in mouse and human small RNA data.Genome Res. 2012; 22: 1634-1645Crossref PubMed Scopus (128) Google Scholar). Finally, one highly conserved pre-miRNA (pre-miR-451) has been demonstrated to bypass DICER processing altogether and is instead cleaved directly by Argonaute 2 (Ago2) within the RISC (79Cheloufi S. Dos Santos C.O. Chong M.M. Hannon G.J. A dicer-independent miRNA biogenesis pathway that requires Ago catalysis.Nature. 2010; 465: 584-589Crossref PubMed Scopus (708) Google Scholar, 80Cifuentes D.

USA. 2010; 107: 15163-15168Crossref PubMed Scopus (270) Google Scholar). miRNAs bind to target RNAs through complementary base pairing, most critically in the seed region of the miRNA (nucleotides 2 through 7 at the 5′-end). One of the first miRNAs shown to have a role in lipid biology is miR-33, which is cotranscribed with the SREBF family of genes and is a critical regulator of lipoprotein metabolism and fatty acid oxidation (44Moore K.J.
