Genome-wide in vivo and ex vivo mapping of R-loops using engineered N-terminal hybrid-binding domain of RNase H3 (enDR3)

ABSTRACT: R-loops are nucleic acid structures composed of RNA/DNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA, which form during transcription. Defective processing of R-loops threatens genome stability, ultimately leading to severe human diseases. The current knowledge of the mechanisms of R-loop processing and regulation is incomplete. New tools to accurately localize R-loop biology across the genome are of key importance to understand R-loop biology. Here, we propose a new method to capture and sequence RNA/DNA hybrids which can be used to map R-loop locations, providing an essential alternative to currently used approaches, such as immunoprecipitation with S9.6 antibody. Our method relies on an engineered N-terminal hybrid-binding domain from bacterial RNase H3 (enDR3). We developed a tandem form of this domain with specific amino acid substitutions, which enhance affinity and specificity for RNA/DNA hybrids. Moreover, we successfully used this protein for genome-wide R-loop profiling based on DRIPc-seq or ChIP-seq techniques which confirmed that enDR3 is useful for R-loop detection in both in vitro and in vivo methods.

Genomic Profiling of Native R-Loops with a DNA-RNA Hybrid Recognition Sensor Protein

Project description:R-Loops are unique RNA-containing chromatin structures, which participate in various key biological processes and associate with multiple human diseases. Accurately and comprehensively profiling R-Loops in the genome is crucial to study their functions under the physiological and pathological conditions. However, the existing methodologies have produced broad discrepancies in R-Loop profiling and an independent strategy is urgently needed. Here, we constructed an artificial DNA-RNA hybrid recognition sensor protein GST-His6-2XHBD with the hybrid-binding domain of RNase H1, and found GST-His6-2XHBD could specifically interact with DNA-RNA hybrids and behaves similarly to the anti-DNA-RNA hybrid S9.6 antibody in DRIPc-seq. Furthermore, we established a convenient method, R-loop CUT&Tag, by combination of GST-His6-2XHBD with a Tn5-based cleavage under targets and tagmentation approach. R-Loop CUT&Tag generates highly specific signals for native R-Loops, and can sensitively detect the R-Loop signals at the promoter, genebody and enhancer. R-Loop CUT&Tag also provides possibilities to genome-widely map the native R-Loops with limited materials, and may benefit the resolving of the broad discrepancies between multiple R-Loop mapping methods.

Recognition of cellular RNAs by the S9.6 antibody creates pervasive artifacts when imaging RNA:DNA hybrids

Project description:We showed that the majority of the signal observed in S9.6 immunofluorescence microscopy images of fixed human cells arises from RNA, not RNA:DNA hybrids. S9.6 staining is quantitatively unchanged by pre-treatment with the human RNA:DNA hybrid-specific nuclease, RNase H1, despite experimental verification that the enzyme was active in situ. S9.6 staining was, however, significantly sensitive to pre-treatments with RNase T1, and in some cases RNase III, two ribonucleases that specifically degrade single-stranded and double-stranded RNA, respectively. In contrast, genome-wide maps obtained by high-throughput DNA sequencing after S9.6-mediated DNA:RNA Immunoprecipitation (DRIP) are RNase H1-sensitive and RNase T1- and RNase III-insensitive. Altogether, these data demonstrate that the S9.6 antibody, though capable of recognizing RNA:DNA hybrids in situ and in vitro, suffers from a lack of specificity that precludes reliable imaging of RNA:DNA hybrids and renders associated imaging data inconclusive in the absence of controls for its promiscuous recognition of cellular RNAs.

DDX17 helicase promotes resolution of R-loop-mediated transcription-replication conflicts in human cells

Project description:R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures composed of an RNA:DNA hybrid and displaced DNA strand. These structures can halt DNA replication when formed co- transcriptionally in the opposite orientation to replication fork progression. Recent studies have shown that replication forks stalled by co-transcription R-loops can be restarted by a mechanism involving fork cleavage by MUS81 endonuclease, followed by reactivation of transcription, and fork religation by the DNA ligase IV (LIG4)/XRCC4 complex. However, how R-loops are eliminated to allow the sequential restart of transcription and replication in this pathway remains elusive. Here, we identified the human DDX17 helicase as a factor that associates with R-loops and counteracts R-loop-mediated replication stress to preserve genome stability. We show that DDX17 unwinds RNA:DNA hybrids in vitro and promotes MUS81-dependent restart of R-loop-stalled forks in human cells in a manner dependent on its helicase activity. Loss of DDX17 helicase induces accumulation of R-loops and the formation of R-loop-dependent anaphase bridges and micronuclei. These findings establish DDX17 as a component of the MUS81-LIG4 pathway for resolution of R-loop-mediated transcription- replication conflicts, which may be involved in R-loop unwinding.

cytoDRIP-seq in HeLa cells

Project description:R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures that have important regulatory roles in cells. Deregulation of R-loop dynamics, however, can lead to DNA damage and genome instability, which results from the action of endonucleases such as XPG on R-loops. The mechanism by which this R-loop processing occurs and the impact on the cell remain unclear. Here, we show that cells with R-loops induced by deregulation of the RNA-DNA helicase Senataxin (SETX), the breast cancer gene BRCA1, or RNA splicing, accumulate cytoplasmic RNA-DNA hybrids in an XPG-dependent manner. Sequencing of cytoplasmic hybrids upon loss of SETX shows that they are derived from a subset of nuclear RNA-DNA hybrids that have longer lifetimes, signal on both sense and antisense strands and contain regions with switches in nucleotide skew. We further show that induced cytoplasmic hybrids bind the pattern recognition receptors cGAS and TLR3, activating IRF3 and inducing apoptosis. Ataxia oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) patient cells which harbor a mutated SETX also exhibit XPG-dependent activation of the innate immune response. These findings identify RNA-DNA hybrids as novel, immunogenic nucleic acid species which aberrantly accumulate in the cytoplasm of cells upon R-loop processing, and can ultimately induce cell apoptosis. We anticipate that aberrant R-loop processing and subsequent innate immune activation may be a pathological process that contributes to many disease states, such as neurodegeneration and cancer.

Massive sequencing of hybrid DNA obtained by DNA:RNA immunoprecipitation (DRIP) in extracellular microvesicles (MV) produced by HeLa cells (using S9.6 antibody)

Project description:Hybrid (Bound) and non-hybrid (Unbound) DNA from Hela EV was isolated using DRIP procedure as follows. Between 1-5μg of nucleic acid DNA from EVs (DNase0 treated) was incubated overnight with 1μg of anti-DNA-RNA Hybrid (S9.6) antibody (KeraFast) under rotation at 4°C in 500μl of binding buffer (10mM NaPO4 pH 7.0, 140 mM NaCl, 0.05% Triton X-100). The following day, 25μl of A/G magnetic beads (Pierce™) were washed twice in 500μl of binding buffer (30' min each wash) and added for 2h at room temperature under rotation to the S9.6+nucleic acid complex. The nucleic acids bound to the S9.6 antibody (Hybrid fraction or Bound) were separated from those unbound (Non-Hybrid or Unbound) by using a magnetic rack (which captured the Bead+Hybrid fraction). 500μl of the unbound fraction (bead-free) were transferred into a new 1.5ml tube and collected for further analysis. The Bead+Hybrid fraction was washed twice in 250μl binding buffer for 15' min at room temperature under rotation. The hybrids were then eluted with 250μl of elution buffer (50mM TRIS pH 8.0, 10mM EDTA, 0.5% SDS) for 15' min at room temperature under rotation. The elution step was repeated twice to make sure that all the hybrid molecules were collected. As a control of all there experiments to make sure, we were isolating and precipitating Hybrid DNA:RNA molecules, samples were also pre-treated with RNaseH1 (RNaseH), which degrades the RNA filament only when present in the hybrid structure.

TDRD3 promotes DHX9 chromatin recruitment and R-loop resolution

Project description:R-loops, which consist of a DNA/RNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), are increasingly recognized as critical regulators of chromatin biology. R-loops are particularly enriched at gene promoters, where they play important roles in regulating gene expression. However, the molecular mechanisms that control promoter-associated R-loops remain unclear. The epigenetic “reader” Tudor domain-containing protein 3 (TDRD3), which recognizes methylarginine marks on histones and on the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, was previously shown to recruit DNA topoisomerase 3B (TOP3B) to relax negatively supercoiled DNA and prevent R-loop formation. Here, we further characterize the function of TDRD3 in R-loop metabolism and introduce the DExH-box helicase 9 (DHX9) as a novel interaction partner of the TDRD3/TOP3B complex. TDRD3 directly interacts with DHX9 via its Tudor domain. This interaction is important for recruiting DHX9 to target gene promoters, where it resolves R-loops in a helicase activity-dependent manner to facilitate gene expression. Additionally, TDRD3 also stimulates the helicase activity of DHX9. This stimulation relies on the OB-fold of TDRD3, which likely binds the ssDNA in the R-loop structure. Thus, DHX9 functions together with TOP3B to suppress promoter-associated R-loops. Collectively, these findings reveal new functions of TDRD3 and provide important mechanistic insights into the regulation of R-loop metabolism.

R-loop proximity proteomics identifies a role of DDX41 in transcription-associated genomic instabilityR-loop proximity proteomics identifies a role of DDX41 in transcription-associated genomic instability

Project description:Transcription can pose a threat to genomic stability through the formation of R-loops that obstruct the progression of replication forks. R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures formed by an RNA-DNA hybrid with a displaced non-template DNA strand. We developed RDProx to identify proteins that regulate R-loops in human cells. RDProx relies on the expression of the hybrid-binding domain (HBD) of Ribonuclease H1 (RNaseH1) fused to the ascorbate peroxidase (APEX2), which permits mapping of the R-loop proximal proteome using quantitative mass spectrometry. We associated R-loop regulation with different cellular proteins and identified a role of the tumor suppressor DEAD box protein 41 (DDX41) in opposing R-loop-dependent genomic instability. Depletion of DDX41 resulted in replication stress, double strand breaks and increased inflammatory signaling. Furthermore, DDX41 opposes accumulation of R-loops at gene promoters and its loss leads to upregulated expression of TGFβ and NOTCH signaling genes. Germline loss-of-function mutations in DDX41 lead to predisposition to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in adulthood. We propose that accumulation of co-transcriptional R-loops, associated gene expression changes and inflammatory response contribute to the development of familial AML with mutated DDX41.

human HEK293T S9.6 Mass spectrometry

Project description:We are interested in proteins which could preferentially interact with DNA: RNA hybrids upon DNA damage. To achieve that, we treated HEK293T with 10 Gy IR, followed by 20 min recovery. We applied S9.6 antibody, which could recognize DNA: RNA hybrids structure, to isolate their interactome upon either normal conditions or DNA damage conditions, after which those proteins sample were sent for mass spec analysis, and proteins specifically interacting with DNA: RNA hybrids were then screened and analysed.

Genome-wide distribution of RNA-DNA hybrids identifies RNase H targets in tRNA genes, retrotransposons and mitochondria

Project description:During transcription the nascent RNA can invade the DNA template, forming extended RNA-DNA duplexes (R-loops). Here we employ ChIP-seq in strains expressing or lacking RNase H to map targets of RNase H activity throughout budding yeast genome. In wild-type strains, R-loops were readily detected over the 35S rDNA region transcribed by Pol I and over the 5S rDNA transcribed by Pol III. In strains lacking RNase H activity, R-loops were elevated over other Pol III genes notably tRNAs, SCR1 and U6 snRNA, and were also associated with the cDNAs of endogenous TY1 retrotransposons, which showed increased rates of mobility to the 5?-flanking regions of tRNA genes. Unexpectedly, R-loops were also associated with mitochondrial genes in the absence of RNase H1, but not of RNase H2. Finally, R-loops were detected on highly expressed protein-coding genes in the wild-type, notably over the second exon of spliced ribosomal protein genes.
