Abstract | Echinoderms are marine deuterostomes with fascinating adaptation features such as aestivation and organ regeneration. However, post-transcriptional gene regulation by microRNAs (miRNAs) underlying these features are largely unexplored. Here, using homology-based and de novo approaches supported by expression data, we provided a comprehensive annotation of miRNA genes in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus. By linkage and phylogenic analyses, we characterized miRNA genomic organization, evolutionary history and expression regulation. The results showed that sea cucumbers evolved a large number of new miRNAs, which tended to form polycistronic clusters via tandem duplication that had been especially active in the echinoderms. Most new miRNAs were weakly expressed, but miRNA clustering increased the expression level of clustered new miRNAs. The most abundantly expressed new miRNAs were organized in a single tandem cluster (cluster n2), which was activated during aestivation and intestine regeneration. Overall, our analyses suggest that clustering of miRNAs is important for their evolutionary origin, expression control, and functional cooperation. |
