Single molecule nanoscopy reveals that nuclear myosin VI regulates the spatial organization of mammalian transcription initiation

ABSTRACT: During transcription, RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) is spatially organised into clusters that correlate with transcription activity. However, the assembly, organisation and stability of these transcription units remains unknown. Here, we have combined single molecule imaging with genomics approaches in order to explore the role of nuclear myosin VI in the nanoscale organisation of RNAPII. We can reveal that myosin VI acts as the molecular anchor that holds RNAPII into these transcription factories. Perturbation of myosin VI leads to the disruption of RNAPII localisation, changes in chromatin organisation and subsequently a decrease in gene expression. This role of Myosin VI is particularly important for transcription events following stimulation, where multiple genes are simultaneously activated.

Nuclear myosin VI maintains replication fork stability

Project description:The actin cytoskeleton is of fundamental importance for cellular structure and plasticity. However, abundance and function of filamentous (F-) actin in the nucleus are still controversial. Here we show that the actin-based molecular motor myosin VI contributes to the stabilization of stalled or reversed replication forks. In response to DNA replication stress, myosin VI associates with stalled replication intermediates and cooperates with the AAA ATPase WRNIP1 in protecting these structures from DNA2-mediated nucleolytic attack. Using functionalized DARPins to manipulate myosin VI levels in a compartment-specific manner, we provide evidence for the direct involvement of myosin VI in the nucleus and against a contribution of the abundant cytoplasmic pool during the replication stress response.

How Myosin VI Traps its Off-State, is Activated and Dimerizes

Project description:Myosin VI (Myo6) is the only minus-end directed nanomotor on actin, allowing it to uniquely contribute to numerous cellular functions. As for other nanomotors, proper functioning of Myo6 relies on precise spatio-temporal control of motor activity via a poorly defined off-state and interactions with partners. Our structural, functional, and cellular studies reveal key features of myosin regulation and indicate that not all partners can activate Myo6. TOM1 and Dab2 cannot bind the off-state while, GIPC1 binds Myo6, releases its auto-inhibition and triggers proximal dimerization. Myo6 partners thus differentially recruit Myo6. We solved a crystal structure of the proximal dimerization domain, and show that its disruption compromises endocytosis in HeLa cells, emphasizing the importance of Myo6 dimerization. Finally, we show that the L926Q deafness mutation disrupts Myo6 auto-inhibition and indirectly impairs proximal dimerization. Our study thus demonstrates the importance of partners in the control of Myo6 auto-inhibition, localization, and activation.

In vivo live imaging of RNA polymerase II transcription factories in primary cells

Project description:Transcription steps are marked by different modifications of the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). Phosphorylation of Ser5 and Ser7 by cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) as part of TFIIH marks initiation, whereas phosphorylation of Ser2 by CDK9 marks elongation. These processes are thought to take place in localized transcription foci in the nucleus, known as M-bM-^@M-^XM-bM-^@M-^Xtranscription factories,M-bM-^@M-^YM-bM-^@M-^Y but it has been argued that the observed clusters/foci are mere fixation or labeling artifacts. We show that transcription factories exist in living cells as distinct foci by live-imaging fluorescently labeled CDK9, a kinase known to associate with active RNAPII. These foci were observed in different cell types derived from CDK9-mCherry knock-in mice. We show that these foci are very stable while highly dynamic in exchanging CDK9. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled with deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) data show that the genome-wide binding sites of CDK9 and initiating RNAPII overlap on transcribed genes. Immunostaining shows that CDK9- mCherry foci colocalize with RNAPII-Ser5P, much less with RNAPII-Ser2P, and not with CDK12 (a kinase reported to be involved in the Ser2 phosphorylation) or with splicing factor SC35. In conclusion, transcription factories exist in living cells, and initiation and elongation of transcripts takes place in different nuclear compartments.

Gene expression during mouse OS25 ES cell differentiation

Project description:Position within chromosome territories, and localisation at transcription factories, are two facets of nuclear organisation that have been associated with active gene expression. However, there is still debate about whether this organisation is a cause or consequence of transcription. We induced looping out from chromosome territories (CTs), by the activation of Hox loci during differentiation, to investigate consequences on neighbouring loci. This microarray study aims at analyzing the expression of genes close to Hoxb and Hoxd clusters in parallel with their nuclear position.
