Abstract | During oocyte maturation and early embryogenesis, changes in mRNA poly(A)-tail lengths strongly influence translation, but how these tail-length changes are orchestrated has been unclear. Here, we performed tail-length and translational profiling of mRNA reporter libraries (each with millions of 3' UTR sequence variants) in frog oocytes and embryos and in fish embryos. Contrasting to previously proposed cytoplasmic polyadenylation elements (CPEs), we found that a shorter element, UUUUA, together with the polyadenylation signal (PAS), specify cytoplasmic polyadenylation, and we identified contextual features that modulate the activity of both elements. In maturing oocytes, this tail lengthening occurs against a backdrop of global deadenylation and the action of C-rich elements that specify tail-length-independent translational repression. In embryos, cytoplasmic polyadenylation becomes more permissive, and additional elements specify waves of stage-specific deadenylation. Together, these findings largely explain the complex tapestry of tail-length changes observed in early frog and fish development, with strong evidence of conservation in both mice and humans. |
