Abstract

AbstractMicroRNA is critical coordinator to circadian regulation by silencing gene expression. Although many circadian related miRNAs and some of its target are known, the global functional miRNA-mRNA interaction networks remain poorly understand which is hindered by imperfect base-pairing between miRNA and target mRNA. In this study, we used CLEAR (Covalent Ligation of Endogenous Argonaute-bound RNAs) -CLIP (Cross-Linking and Immuno-Precipitation) to explore the regulatory functions of miRNAs in the circadian system by comparing the miRNA-mRNA interactions between the Drosophila wild-type strain w1118 and the Clk mutant Clkjrk. We unambiguously identified thousands of miRNA-mRNA interactions from CLEAR-CLIP data set at unprecedented depth in vivo for the first time. Among them, about 300 miRNA-mRNA interactions were involved in the regulation of circadian, in which miRNAs targeting core clock genes pdp1, tim and vri presented distinct changes in response to Clkjrk. Particularly, the mir-375-timeless interaction from CLER-CLIP shows important effects on circadian, this functional event occurred in the l-LNv neurons. Overexpression of mir-375 in tim neurons caused decreases in TIM content resulting in arrhythmicity of daily locomotion and changes of sleep. This present work provides a global view of miRNA targeting in the circadian rhythm.
