Project description:Transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) is coupled to mRNA processing and chromatin modifications via the C-terminal domain (CTD) of its largest subunit, consisting of multiple repeats of the heptapeptide YSPTSPS. Pioneering studies showed that CTD serines are differentially phosphorylated along genes in a prescribed pattern during the transcription cycle. Genome-wide analyses challenged this idea, suggesting that this cycle is non-uniform among different genes. Moreover, the respective role of enzymes responsible for CTD modifications remains controversial. Here, we systematically profiled the location of the RNAPII phospho-isoforms in wild type cells and mutants for most CTD modifying enzymes. Together with results of in vitro assays, these data reveal a complex interplay between the modifying enzymes, and provide evidence that the CTD cycle is uniform across genes. We also identify Ssu72 as the Ser7 phosphatase and show that proline isomerization is a key regulator of CTD dephosphorylation at the end of genes. We took a systematic approach to examine the genome-wide distribution of the various CTD modifications using a panel of RNAPII CTD phospho-specific antibodies; both in wild type cells and in mutants for most of the CTD kinases, phosphatases and the isomerase. Immunoprecipitation of CTD phospho-isoforms were done using the following antibodies: H14 and 3E8 for Ser5, H5 and 3E10 for Ser2, 4E12 for Ser7, 8WG16 (anti-Rpb1-CTD) and W0012 (anti-Rpb3) for RNAPII (global localization). A list of the mutant strains and their genotypes can be found in the supplemental files of the related publication. Most ChIPs (in Cy5) were hybridyzed against a non-immunoprecipitated (whole cell extract, WCE) in Cy3. Ssu72, Pti1 and Rpb1 were immunoprecipitated using tagged proteins (3myc-Ssu72, Pti1-3myc, Rpb1-9myc) and the ChIP DNA hybridized in competition with a control ChIP DNA prepared from an isogenic untagged strain (NoTag). ChIP from wild type strains yFR116 (W303) and yFR117 (S288C) were used to obtains wild type profiles that can be compared to mutants strains of the same background. All ChIP-chip experiments were done at least in duplicates. Each microarray was normalized using the Lima Loess and replicates were combined using a weighted average method as previously described (Pokholok et al., 2005).

Project description:Mediator is an essential, broadly utilized eukaryotic transcriptional co-activator. How and what it communicates from activators to RNA polymerase II remains an open question. Here we performed genome-wide location profiling of yeast Mediator subunits. Mediator is not found at core promoters but rather occupies the upstream activating sequence (UAS), upstream of the pre-initiation complex. In the absence of Kin28/CDK7 kinase activity, or in cells where the CTD is mutated to replace Ser5 with alanines, however, Mediator accumulates at core promoters together with RNAPII. We propose that Mediator is quickly released from promoters upon Ser5 phosphorylation by Kin28/CDK7, which also allows for RNAPII to escape from the promoter.

Mediator occupancy was also assayed in mutants for most of the CTD kinases and in strains where some CTD serines had been replaced by alanines. Mediator ChIPs were performed with Myc-tagged subunits, except in some preliminary experiments where polyclonal antibodies were used. Most ChIPs (in Cy5) were hybridyzed against a control ChIP sample from an isogenic non-tagged strain (in Cy3). In some of the preliminary experiments, non immunoprecipitated DNA (input) was used as the control. In addition to Mediator ChIPs, the project includes TFIIB and RNAPII (Rpb3) ChIP-chip datasets. All ChIP-chip experiments were done in duplicates except for the preliminary experiments that were done in monoplicat for the most part. Each microarray was normalized using the Lima Loess and replicates were combined using a weighted average method as previously described (Pokholok et al., 2005).

Project description:We report that inactivation of the fission yeast Cdk7 kinase affects gene expression through both its RNA Polymerase II CTD kinase activity and its Cdc2-activating kinase activity. The ribosome biogenesis cluster is specifically downregulated when Cdc2 T167 phosphorylation is abolished, which results is slow growth. We propose that Cdc2 activation by CAK defines the rate change point observed in mid G2 and that CAK therefore couples cell growth to cell division. Total RNA was isolated from two biological replicates for all conditions, and each biological replicate was hybridized in duplicate on Agilent arrays (dye-swap).

Project description:Eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (Pol II) has evolved an array of heptad repeats with the consensus sequence Tyr1-Ser2-Pro3-Thr4-Ser5-Pro6-Ser7 at the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of the large subunit (Rpb1). Differential phosphorylation of Ser2, Ser5, and Ser7 in the 5’ and 3’ regions of genes coordinates the binding of transcription and RNA processing factors to the initiating and elongating polymerase complexes. Here, we report phosphorylation of Thr4 by Polo-like-kinase-3 in mammalian cells. ChIPseq analyses indicate an increase of Thr4-P levels in the 3’ region of genes occurring subsequently to an increase of Ser2-P levels. A Thr4/Ala mutant of Pol II displays a lethal phenotype. This mutant reveals a global defect in RNA elongation, while initiation is largely unaffected. Since Thr4 replacement mutants are viable in yeast we conclude that this amino acid has evolved an essential function(s) in the CTD of Pol II for gene transcription in mammalian cells.

Project description:Spt6 is a multifunctional histone chaperone involved in the maintenance of chromatin structure during elongation by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Spt6 has a tandem SH2 (tSH2) domain within its C-terminus that recognizes Pol II CTD peptides phosphorylated on Ser2, Ser5 or Try1 in vitro. Deleting the tSH2 domain, however, only has a partial effect on Spt6 occupancy in vivo, suggesting that more complex mechanisms are involved in the Spt6 recruitment. Our results show that the Ser2 kinases Bur1 and Ctk1, but not the Ser5 kinase Kin28, cooperate in recruiting Spt6, genome-wide. Interestingly, the Ser2 kinases promote the association of Spt6 in early transcribed regions and not toward the 3' end of genes, where phosphorylated Ser2 reaches its maximum level. Additionally, our results uncover an unexpected role for histone deacetylases (Rpd3 and Hos2) in promoting Spt6 interaction with elongating Pol II. Finally, our data suggest that phosphorylation of the Pol II CTD on Tyr1 promotes the association of Spt6 with the 3' end of transcribed genes, independently of Ser2 phosphorylation. Collectively, our results show that a complex network of interactions, involving the Spt6 tSH2 domain, CTD phosphorylation and histone deacetylases, coordinate the recruitment of Spt6 to transcribed genes in vivo. We examined the genome-wide distribution (using ChIP-chip) of Spt6. Spt6 occupancy was also assayed in mutants for CTD Serine 2 and Serine 5 kinases and in mutants for histone deacetylases. ChIPs were performed with a Myc-tagged version of Spt6. Most ChIPs (in Cy5) were hybridyzed against a control ChIP sample from an isogenic non-tagged strain (in Cy3). In the ChIP experiments with the spt6-202del mutant, non immunoprecipitated DNA (input) was used as the control. In addition to Spt6 ChIPs, the project includes RNAPII (Rpb3) ChIP-chip datasets, where an anti-Rpb3 antibody was used to ChIP RNAPII and non immunoprecipitated DNA (input) was used as the control. All ChIP-chip experiments were done in duplicates. Each microarray was normalized using the Lima Loess and replicates were combined using a weighted average method as previously described (Pokholok et al., 2005).

Project description:The ecophysiology of complete ammonia oxidizing Nitrospira (CMX) and their widespread occurrence in groundwater suggests that CMX bacteria have a competitive advantage over ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA) in these environments. However, the relevance of their activity from the ecosystem-level process perspective has remained unclear. We investigated oligotrophic carbonate rock aquifers as a model system to assess the contribution of CMX, AOA and AOB to nitrification and to identify the environmental drivers of their niche differentiation at different levels of ammonium and oxygen. CMX accounted for up to 95% of the ammonia oxidizer communities. Nitrification rates were positively correlated to CMX clade A-associated phylotypes and AOB affiliated with Nitrosomonas ureae. Surprisingly, short-term incubations amended with the nitrification inhibitors allylthiourea and chlorate suggested that AOB contributed more than 90% to overall ammonia oxidation, while metaproteomics analysis confirmed an active role of CMX in both ammonia and nitrite oxidation. Ecophysiological niche differentiation of CMX clades A and B, AOA and AOB was linked to their requirements for ammonium, oxygen tolerance, and metabolic versatility. Our results demonstrate that despite numerical predominance of CMX, the first step of nitrification in oligotrophic groundwater is primarily governed by AOB. Higher growth yields at lower NH4+ turnover rates and energy derived from nitrite oxidation most likely enable CMX to maintain consistently high populations. Activity measurements combined with differential inhibition allowed a refined understanding of ammonia oxidizer coexistence, competition and cooperation beyond the insights from molecular data alone.
