Depletion of endogenous miRNA-378-3p increases peak cell density of CHO DP12 cells and is correlated with elevated levels of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 14.

Journal of Biotechnology 2018 December 21
miRNAs are potent molecular regulators of cellular behaviour. The manipulation of these small non-coding RNAs has been used to enhance industrially relevant phenotypes in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. We investigated the stable depletion of six miRNAs; miR-204-5p, 338-3p, 378-3p, 409-3p, 455-3p and 505-3p, robustly associated with cell growth rate from a previous profiling study. Inhibition of endogenous miR-378-3p function by miRNA-sponge-decoy improved peak cell density by 59%. Quantitative label free LC-MS/MS proteomic analysis of the fractionated cell cultures at day 4 and 8 of batch culture found 216 cytosolic and 114 membrane-associated proteins differentially expressed with stable miR-378-3p depletion. qRT-PCR of 8 genes; Clic4, Hnrnpa1, Prdx1, Actn4, Usp14, Srxn1, Canx and Gnb1, with unidirectional differential protein expression over the two time points of analysis was carried out. In-silico predictive algorithms; TargetScan and miRDB, were used to decipher possible direct targets of miR-378-3p. The Ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 14 (Usp14) protein was identified in the cytosolic fractions at both timepoints as differentially expressed with an increased abundance of 1.58-fold in the miR-378-3p depleted cells on day 8. Usp14 is a deubiquitinase (DUB) with previous reports of its up-regulation leading to increased proliferation of cancer cells. Overexpression of Usp14 in CHO cells had significant effects on cell growth supporting a role for Usp14 in the increased peak cell density seen with miR-378-3p depletion. This study highlights miR-378-3p as a novel engineering candidate for improving CHO cell growth. The use of subcellular fractionation also improved proteome coverage in the identification of novel miRNA targets.
