Project description:Termination of RNAPII transcription is associated with RNA 3â end formation. For coding genes, termination is initiated by the cleavage/polyadenylation machinery. In contrast, a majority of noncoding transcription events in S. cerevisiae do not rely on RNA cleavage for termination, but instead terminate via a pathway that requires the Nrd1-Nab3-Sen1 (NNS) complex. Here we show that the S. pombe ortholog of Nrd1, Seb1, does not function in NNS-like termination, but promotes polyadenylation site selection of coding and noncoding genes. We found that Seb1 associates with 3â end processing factors, is enriched at the 3â end of genes, and binds RNA motifs downstream of cleavage sites. Importantly, a deficiency in Seb1 resulted in widespread changes in 3â UTR length as a consequence of increased alternative polyadenylation. Given that Seb1 levels affected the recruitment of conserved 3â end processing factors, our findings indicate that the conserved RNA-binding protein Seb1 co-transcriptionally controls alternative polyadenylation.

Project description:Transcription termination pathways mitigate the detrimental consequences of unscheduled promiscuous initiation occurring at hundreds of thousands of genomic cis-regulatory elements, thus representing cornerstones of genomic regulation in eukaryotes. Restrictor, a complex conserved from worms to humans and composed of the RNA-binding protein ZC3H4 and of WDR82, a Pol II-carboxyterminal repeat domain (CTD)-interacting protein, is required to suppress long-range, processive transcription at thousands of extragenic sites, with instead comparatively limited effects on gene transcription. Restrictor contains no RNA cleavage subunit and does not coopt known cleavage complexes, indicating alternative termination mechanisms. Here we show that Restrictor-driven termination involves Symplekin, a protein associated with RNA cleavage complexes but also involved in cleavage-independent, phosphatase-dependent termination of non-coding RNAs in yeast. Competition among Restrictor, the cleavage and polyadenylation specificity complex (CPSF) and the histone cleavage complex for a limited pool of Symplekin resulted in mutual regulation, thus revealing unexpected regulatory interactions among multiple transcription termination pathways and a general role of Symplekin in both genic and extragenic cleavage-independent termination pathways.

Project description:Here we present complete genomic and biochemical annotations of the signals required for RNA degradation by the dsRNA specific ribonuclease III (Rnt1p) and examine its impact on transcriptome expression. Rnt1p cleavage signals are randomly distributed in the yeast genome and encompass wide variety of sequence indicating that transcriptome stability is not determined by the recurrence of a fixed cleavage motif. Instead, RNA reactivity is defined by the sequence and structural context in which the cleavage sites are located. Reactive signals are often associated with transiently expressed genes and their impact on RNA expression is linked to growth conditions. Together the data suggest that Rnt1p reactivity is triggered by malleable RNA degradation signals that permit dynamic response to changes in growth conditions. Total RNA and whole cell extract from rnt1d strain was divided in two samples. One sample was treated with purified Rnt1p. The other was only incubated with buffer. The two samples were then treated with recombinant Xrn1p.

Project description:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the maturation of both pre-rRNA and pre-small nucleolar RNAs (pre-snoRNAs) involves common factors, thereby providing a potential mechanism for the coregulation of snoRNA and rRNA synthesis. In this study, we examined the global impact of the double-stranded-RNA-specific RNase Rnt1p, which is required for pre-rRNA processing, on the maturation of all known snoRNAs. In silico searches for Rnt1p cleavage signals, and genome-wide analysis of the Rnt1p-dependent expression profile, identified seven new Rnt1p substrates. Interestingly, two of the newly identified Rnt1p-dependent snoRNAs, snR39 and snR59, are located in the introns of the ribosomal protein genes RPL7A and RPL7B. In vitro and in vivo experiments indicated that snR39 is normally processed from the lariat of RPL7A, suggesting that the expressions of RPL7A and snR39 are linked. In contrast, snR59 is produced by a direct cleavage of the RPL7B pre-mRNA, indicating that a single pre-mRNA transcript cannot be spliced to produce a mature RPL7B mRNA and processed by Rnt1p to produce a mature snR59 simultaneously. The results presented here reveal a new role of yeast RNase III in the processing of intron-encoded snoRNAs that permits independent regulation of the host mRNA and its associated snoRNA.
