Early development depends heavily on accurate control of maternally inherited
mRNAs, and yet it remains unknown how maternal microRNAs are regulated during
maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). We here find that maternal microRNAs are
highly adenylated at their 3' ends in mature oocytes and early embryos. Maternal
microRNA adenylation is widely conserved in fly, sea urchin, and mouse. We
identify Wispy, a noncanonical poly(A) polymerase, as the enzyme responsible for
microRNA adenylation in flies. Knockout of wispy abrogates adenylation and
results in microRNA accumulation in eggs, whereas overexpression of Wispy
increases adenylation and reduces microRNA levels in S2 cells. Wispy interacts
with Ago1 through protein-protein interaction, which may allow the effective and
selective adenylation of microRNAs. Thus, adenylation may contribute to the
clearance of maternally deposited microRNAs during MZT. Our work provides
mechanistic insights into the regulation of maternal microRNAs and illustrates
the importance of RNA tailing in development.
