Subcellular mRNA localization regulates ribosome biogenesis in migrating cells

Open access

Abstract

Translation of Ribosomal Protein-coding mRNAs (RP-mRNAs) constitutes a key step in ribosome biogenesis, but the mechanisms which modulate RP-mRNAs translation in coordination with other cellular processes are poorly defined. Here we show that the subcellular localization of RP-mRNAs acts as a key regulator of their translation during cell migration. As cells migrate into their surroundings, RP-mRNAs localize to actin-rich protrusions at the front the cells. This localization is mediated by La-related protein 6 (LARP6), an RNA binding protein that is enriched in protrusions. Protrusions act as hotspots of translation for RP-mRNAs, resulting in enhancement of ribosome biogenesis and overall protein synthesis, which is required for sustained migration. In human breast carcinomas, Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) upregulates LARP6 expression to enhance ribosome biogenesis and support invasive growth. Our findings reveal LARP6 mediated mRNA localization as a key regulator of ribosome biogenesis during cell migration, and demonstrate a role for this process in cancer progression downstream of EMT.

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.
