Uridine insertion/deletion editing of mitochondrial mRNAs is a characteristic feature of kinetoplastids, including Trypanosoma brucei. Editing is directed by trans-acting gRNAs and catalyzed by related RNA Editing Core Complexes (RECCs). The non-catalytic RNA Editing Substrate Binding Complex (RESC) coordinates interactions between RECC, gRNA and mRNA. RESC is a dynamic complex comprising GRBC (Guide RNA Binding Complex) and heterogeneous REMCs (RNA Editing Mediator Complexes). Here, we show that RESC10 is an essential, low abundance, RNA binding protein that exhibits RNase-sensitive and RNase-insensitive interactions with RESC proteins, albeit its minimal in vivo interaction with RESC13. RESC10 RNAi causes extensive RESC disorganization, including disruption of intra-GRBC protein–protein interactions, as well as mRNA depletion from GRBC and accumulation on REMCs. Analysis of mitochondrial RNAs at single nucleotide resolution reveals transcript-specific effects: RESC10 dramatically impacts editing progression in pan-edited RPS12 mRNA, but is critical for editing initiation in mRNAs with internally initiating gRNAs, pointing to distinct initiation mechanisms for these RNA classes. Correlations between sites at which editing pauses in RESC10 depleted cells and those in knockdowns of previously studied RESC proteins suggest that RESC10 acts upstream of these factors and that RESC is particularly important in promoting transitions between uridine insertion and deletion RECCs.

Trypanosome RNAEditing Substrate Binding Complex integrity and function depends on the upstream action of RESC10
