TFIIIC binding to Alu elements controls gene expression via chromatin looping and histone acetylation

ABSTRACT: How repetitive elements, epigenetic modifications and architectural proteins interact ensuring proper genome expression remains poorly understood. Here we report regulatory mechanisms unveiling a central role of Alu elements (AEs) and RNA polymerase III transcription factor C (TFIIIC) in structurally and functionally modulating the genome via chromatin looping and histone acetylation. Upon serum deprivation, a subset of AEs pre-marked by the Activity-Dependent Neuroprotector Homeobox protein (ADNP) and located near cell cycle genes recruits TFIIIC, which alters their chromatin accessibility by direct acetylation of histone H3 lysine-18 (H3K18). This facilitates the contacts of AEs with distant CTCF sites near promoter of other cell cycle genes, which also become hyperacetylated at H3K18. These changes ensure basal transcription of cell cycle genes and are critical for their re-activation upon serum re-exposure. Our study reveals how direct manipulation of the epigenetic state of AEs by a general transcription factor regulates 3D genome folding and expression.

TFIIIC dinamically binds Alu elements to control gene expression through chromatin looping

Project description:Folding of the mammalian genome is governed by architectural proteins, such asCTCF. TFIIIC, a RNA polymerase III transcription factor, has been identified as aninsulator but its role in genome topology is totally unknown. Here, we show that TFIIICestablishes long-range genomic interactions that affect gene expression. Upon serumstarvation (SS), TFIIIC occupancy increases at Alu elements (AEs) near promoters ofcell cycle-related genes. Bound AEs become H3K18 hyper-acetylated and fold tocontact distal pre-loaded CTCF sites near other cell cycle genes. The promoters ofthese genes also become hyper-acetylated ensuring their basal transcription during SSand their increased expression during serum re-exposure. Ablation of TFIIIC ordeletion of the TFIIIC-bound AE that loops to the G2/M cycling F (CCNF) locus affectsits expression and nuclear positioning. These results illustrate a novel function ofhuman TFIIIC in changing 3D genome topology through the epigenetic state of AEs.

Genome-wide binding of condensin II and TFIIIC upon respective knockdown of a TFIIIC and condensin II subunit

Project description:Condensin complexes are highly conserved for chromosome compaction to ensure their faithful segregation in mitosis. However, little is known about the role of condensin complexes in interphase. Condensins exists in two complexes, condensins I and II, in higher eukayotic cells. During interphase, condensin II is predominantly localized in the nucleus throughout the cell cycle, whereas condensin I is localized at the cytoplasm in interphase. The distinct localization patterns suggest that condensin II, but not condensin I, may contribute to genome organization in interphase. Our results suggest that condensin II is associated with TFIIIC complex in vivo. The aim of these experiments is to unravel the dependency of each other on binding to chromatin.

ZSCAN5B and its primate-specific paralogs bind RNA polymerase III genes and extra-TFIIIC (ETC) sites to modulate mitotic progression [SiRNA RNA-Seq data set]

Project description:Particularly in the context of differentiation and development, the importance of three-dimensional chromatin architecture to gene regulatory mechanisms is becoming increasingly clear. The most ancient known mechanism of chromatin organization involves TFIIIC, a transcription factor (TF) that recruits RNA polymerase III (Pol III) for transcription of tRNA and other types of non-coding RNA genes. From yeast to mammals, TFIIIC binds to tRNA genes (tDNAs) and scattered “extra-TFIIIC” (ETC) loci and serves to tether these loci together as anchors of chromatin loops. TFIIIC activities are modulated by MAF, MYC, and other TF proteins that are still unidentified. Here we identify the ZSCAN5 TF family - including mammalian ZSCAN5B and its primate-specific paralogs - as proteins that occupy mammalian Pol III promoters and ETC sites. We show that ZSCAN5B binds with high specificity to a conserved subset of tDNA loci and other Pol III genes in human and mouse and that primate-specific ZSCAN5A and ZSCAN5D also bind Pol III genes, although ZSCAN5D preferentially localizes to MIR SINE- and LINE2-associated ETC sites. ZSCAN5 genes are expressed in proliferating cell populations and are cell-cycle regulated, and gene expression data suggested that they might cooperate to regulate basic cellular functions including mitotic progression. Consistent with this predicted role, ZSCAN5A knockdown led to increasing numbers of cells in mitotic cells and aneuploidy in cultured cells. Together these data implicate ZSCAN5 genes in regulation of Pol III gene transcription and nearby Pol II genes, ultimately influencing cell cycle progression and differentiation in a variety of tissues.

Characterization of Tau95 led to the identification of a four-subunit TFIIIC complex in trypanosomatid parasites

Project description:RNA polymerase III (RNAP III) synthetizes small essential non-coding RNA molecules such as tRNAs and 5S rRNA. In yeast and vertebrates, RNAP III needs general transcription factors TFIIIA, TFIIIB and TFIIIC to initiate transcription. TFIIIC, composed of six subunits, binds to internal promoter elements in RNAP III-dependent genes. Limited information is available about RNAP III transcription in the trypanosomatid protozoa Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania major, which diverged early from the eukaryotic lineage. Analyses of the first draft of the trypanosomatid genome sequences failed to recognize orthologs of any of the TFIIIC subunits, suggesting that this transcription factor is absent in these parasites. However, a single putative TFIIIC subunit was recently annotated in the databases. Here we characterize this subunit in T. brucei and L. major and demonstrate that it corresponds to Tau95. In silico analyses showed that both proteins possess the typical Tau95 sequences: the DNA binding region and the dimerization domain. As anticipated for a transcription factor, Tau95 localized to the nucleus in insect forms of both parasites. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays demonstrated that Tau95 binds to tRNA and U2 snRNA genes in T. brucei. Remarkably, by performing tandem affinity purifications we identified orthologs of TFIIIC subunits Tau55, Tau131 and Tau138 in T. brucei and L. major. Thus, contrary to what was assumed, trypanosomatid parasites do possess a TFIIIC complex. Other putative interacting partners of Tau95 were identified in T. brucei and L. major.

Chip-chip of condensin subunits Brn1 and Smc4 and Scc2/4 and cohesin and Tfc3 (TFIIIC) on budding yeast chromosomes

Project description:Eukaryotic chromosomes reach their stable rod-shaped appearance in mitosis in a reaction dependent on the evolutionarily conserved condensin complex. Little is known about how and where condensin associates with chromosomes. Here, we analyse condensin binding to budding yeast chromosomes using high resolution oligonucleotide tiling arrays. Condensin binding sites coincide with those of the loading factor Scc2/4 of the related cohesin complex. The sites map to tRNA genes, ribosomal protein genes, and other places characterised by the RNA polymerase III transcription factor TFIIIC. An ectopic B-Box element, recognised by TFIIIC, constitutes a minimal condensin binding site, and TFIIIC and the Scc2/4 complex promote productive condensin association with chromosomes. A similar pattern of condensin binding is conserved along fission yeast chromosomes. This reveals that TFIIIC binding sites, including tRNA genes, constitute a hitherto unknown chromosomal feature with important implications for chromosome architecture during both interphase and mitosis.
