Complicated target recognition by archaeal box C/D guide RNAs

Box C/D RNAs guide the site-specific formation of 2'-O-methylated nucleotides(Nm)of RNAs in eukaryotes and archaea.Although C/D RNAs have been profiled in several archaea,their targets have not been experimentally determined.Here,we mapped Nm in rRNAs,tRNAs,and abundant small RNAs(sRNAs)and profiled C/D RNAs in the crenarchaeon Sulfolobus islandicus.The targets of C/D RNAs were assigned by analysis of base-pairing interactions,in vitro modification assays,and gene deletion experiments,revealing a complicated landscape of C/D RNA-target interactions.C/D RNAs widely use dual antisense elements to target adjacent sites in rRNAs,enhancing modification at weakly bound sites.Two consecutive sites can be guided with the same antisense element upstream of box D or D',a phenomenon known as double-specificity that is exclusive to internal box D'in eukaryotic C/D RNAs.Several C/D RNAs guide modification at a single non-canonical site.This study reveals the global landscape of RNA-guided 2'-O-methylation in an archaeon and unexpected targeting rules employed by C/D RNA.
