No claim to original U.S. Government Works. Distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial License 4.0 (CC BY-NC)The parasite Trypanosoma brucei causes African sleeping sickness that is fatal to patients if untreated. Parasite differentiation from a replicative slender form into a quiescent stumpy form promotes host survival and parasite transmission. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are known to regulate cell differentiation in other eukaryotes. To determine whether lncRNAs are also involved in parasite differentiation, we used RNA sequencing to survey the T. brucei genome, identifying 1428 previously uncharacterized lncRNA genes. We find that grumpy lncRNA is a key regulator that promotes parasite differentiation into the quiescent stumpy form. This function is promoted by a small nucleolar RNA encoded within the grumpy lncRNA. snoGRUMPY binds to messenger RNAs of at least two stumpy regulatory genes, promoting their expression. grumpy overexpression reduces parasitemia in infected mice. Our analyses suggest that T. brucei lncRNAs modulate parasite-host interactions and provide a mechanism by which grumpy regulates cell differentiation in trypanosomes.This work was supported in part by Fundação para a Ciência e Tecnologia (FCT) grant, awarded to F.G. and entitled “Long noncoding RNAs as new diagnostic biomarkers for African Sleeping sickness” (PTDC/DTPEPI/7099/2014, start date: 1 January 2016, end date: 31 December 2018); also by Howard Hughes Medical Institute International Early Career Scientist Program (project title: “How parasites use epigenetics to evade host defenses,” project no. 55007419, start date: 1 February 2012, end date: 31 January 2017); and by the European Research Council (project title: “Exploring the hidden life of African trypanosomes: parasite fat tropism and implications for the disease,” project no. 771714, start date: 1 August 2018, end date: 31 January 2024), both awarded to L.M.F.
