Abstract

SUMMARY: The metabolic efficiency of mammalian cells depends on attenuation of intrinsic translation noise by microRNAs. We devised a metric of cellular metabolic rate ( cMR) , rMR / M exp optimally fit to the number of microRNA families ( miRNA.Fam ), that is robust to variation in mass and sensitive to body temperature, consistent with the Heat Dissipation Limit Theory of Speakman and Król (2010) 1 . Using miRNA.Fam as predictor, an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process of stabilizing selection, with an adaptive shift at the divergence of Boreoeutheria, accounted for 95% of the variation in cMR across mammals. Branchwise rates of evolution of cMR , miRNA.Fam and body temperature concurrently increased 6- to 7-fold at the divergence of Boreoeutheria, independent of mass. Cellular MR variation across placental mammals was also predicted by the sum of model conserved microRNA-target interactions, revealing an unexpected degree of integration of the microRNA-target apparatus into the energy economy of the mammalian cell.

Figure 3 Evolution of the number of microRNA families and cellular metabolic rate (cMR) (A) Distance tree of microRNA families. Branch lengths represent the total number of families. Node values represent the number of shared microRNA families in each clade. (B) An ultrametric reference phylogeny (inset) was assembled based on divergence times drawn from Álvarez-Carretero et al. (2022)78 for mammals and Irisarri et al. (2017)79 for earlier-branching vertebrates. The reference tree was rescaled (BayesTraits) according to the rate of evolution of cMR.75, which corresponds to the optimal allometric scaling in a model of stabilizing selection of rMR with respect to the number of microRNA families in tetrapods and mammals (see Figure 5). Values of cMR.75 inferred at ancestral nodes (BayesTraits) were then mapped onto this variable rate tree (see STAR methods).

Figure 6 Design and analysis of simulated adaptive shifts in the evolution of cMR in relation to the predictor mirFam (A) The variance/covariance matrix for the regression of cMR.75 on mirFam was used as the selection strength matrix to generate pairs of values for these traits. The average values of these traits across all mammals, or across placental mammals, were assigned to the first shift (divergence of mammals) and second shift, respectively. Phenogram colors correspond to the log of the cMR.75 values scaled to the original, 36-fold range. (B) Correlations with the actual cMR.75 distribution of the average of ten simulations of the OU or BM process in 14 tetrapods. Adaptive shifts were modeled at the divergence of Mammalia (single shift), with a second shift at the divergence of either Placentalia, Boreoeutheria, or Euarchontoglires (p = 1.23e-05 for the difference in correlation between OU and BM for 10 simulations with the Boreoeutheria shift). (C) Validation of the estimated rates of adaptation: prediction of shift positions according to the % tree height obtained from ten OU models. Shift positions are indicated by the first letter of each diverging clade (M, P, B, E; p = 5.19e-06, ordinal logistic regression).

Figure 7 Variable rate trees and inference of ancestral node values for cMR, Tb and mirFam The ultrametric reference phylogeny of mammals (constant rate model) was rescaled according to the rate of evolution of each of six traits (A–F): cMR.70, cMR.75, cMR.80, mirFam, Tb (ºC) and log2M. The length of the branch for the divergence of Boreoeutheria was compared (%) to the distance between the divergence of Theria and the divergence of Primates. Bayes factors were computed by comparing the median log likelihoods of the 100 most likely trees to the median log likelihoods of the trees with the smallest non-zero sum of changes to branch i.e., those trees that differed the least from the constant rate model. This criterion was adopted in lieu of the marginal likelihoods of the variable and constant rate models, which reflect the overall fit of all of the branches. The range of ancestral node values inferred in a Brownian motion context were mapped onto each tree (see STAR methods). The value at each node represents the median of the ten reconstructions with the highest likelihood. In panel C (mirFam), the lengths of the branches leading to humans and to the ancestral Therian have been reduced by half.

Figure 11 Thermoregulatory status and the distributions of residuals for log Cmin and UCT 276 mammals from the dataset of Khaliq et al. (2014)165 were divided between Chiroptera and earlier-branching mammals (low incidence of homeothermy) versus later-branching Boreoeutheria. Bovids are highlighted because of the well-known constraint that high ambient temperature imposes on the rate of lactation (for references, see Speakman and Król, 20101). (A) For any bMR, later-branching Boreoeutheria are disproportionally represented at the upper end of the range of thermal conductance. (B) The highest upper critical temperatures among later-branching Boreoeutheria are associated with the slowest cellular metabolic rates.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
