Eotide in the assembly of AGO7 ISC, we prepared a series of miR390/miR390* variants that bear U, G or C at the 50 end with the miR390 strand (Fig 2A; g1U, g1G and g1C), and measured the time course of pre-AGO7 ISC and mature AGO7?RISC formation. The duplex loading efficiency was calculated because the sum of pre-AGO7 ISC and mature AGO7 ISC, whereas the passenger ejection rate was calculated because the fraction of mature AGO7 ISC within the sum of pre- and mature AGO7 ISC. Compared together with the wild sort (g1A), all of the mutants showed a marked reduction in duplex loading using the order getting A4U4GBC (Fig 2B,C). In contrast, passenger ejection was comparable amongst the 4 50 nucleotides (Fig 2B,D). These benefits indicate that AGO7 inspects the 50 nucleotide on loading of miR390/mi390* duplex and the preference for 50 A is maintained through RISC maturation. To rule out the possibility that the 50 mismatch introduced inside the mutants accounts for the decreased duplex loading, we closed the 50 mismatch in the g1U duplex by introducing A at position 19 of your passenger (miR390*) strand (Fig 2A, g1U/p19A).

Red and black strands represent the guide and passenger strands, respectively. The 50 finish in the guide strand was radiolabelled with 32P. (C) RISC assembly in BY-2 lysate. AGO7 particularly associates with miR390/miR390* duplex. In contrast, AGO1 interacts with miR166/miR166* and miR171/miR171* duplex both bearing 50 U. `ds’ and `ss’ denote double-stranded miRNAs (pre-RISC) and singlestranded miRNAs (mature RISC), respectively. Western blotting of immunoprecipitated AGO proteins is shown at the bottom. (D) Hsp90 and Hsp70 inhibitors block both AGO1?and AGO7 ISC assembly.
