DNA-directed termination of RNA Polymerase II transcription II

Project description:RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription involves initiation from promoters, transcript elongation through the gene body, and cessation of transcription in the downstream terminator regions. In contrast to bacteria, where terminators often contain specific DNA elements to direct RNAP dissociation1, termination by RNAPII is thought to be driven entirely by protein co-factors1-3. Here we use biochemical reconstitution to shed new light on RNAPII termination. Unexpectedly, transcription through a terminator region by pure RNAPII results in a significant amount of intrinsic polymerase dissociation at specific sequences containing T-tracts. A combination of biochemistry and single molecule analysis indicates that such intrinsic termination involves pausing without backtracking prior to spontaneous RNAPII dissociation from the DNA template. Importantly, while the ‘torpedo’ Rat1-Rai1 RNA exonuclease (XRN2 in humans) works inefficiently on paused or stopped polymerases, it greatly stimulates intrinsic termination. By contrast, elongation factor Spt4-Spt5 (DSIF in humans) suppresses such termination. Genome-wide analysis in yeast using 3’-end sequencing further supports the idea that transcriptional termination occurs by transcript cleavage at the polyA site exposing a new RNA-end that allows loading of the Rat1-Rai1 torpedo, which then catches up with a destabilised RNAPII at intrinsic termination sites containing T-tracts to terminate transcription.
