Human promoter directionality is determined by transcriptional initiation and the opposing activities of INTS11 and CDK9 (RBBP6_POINT-Seq)

ABSTRACT: RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription initiates bidirectionally at many human protein-coding genes. Sense transcription usually dominates and leads to messenger RNA production, whereas antisense transcription rapidly terminates. The basis for this directionality is not fully understood. Here, we show that sense transcriptional initiation is more efficient and focused than in the antisense direction. After transcription begins, directionality is maintained by the opposing functions of Integrator (INTS11) and cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9). INTS11 terminates antisense transcription, whereas sense transcription is protected from this attenuation by CDK9. However, INTS11 terminates transcription in both directions upon CDK9 inhibition, and the engineered recruitment of CDK9 abrogates attenuation by INTS11. Therefore, transcriptional initiation and the asymmetric activities of CDK9 and INTS11 explain the attenuation of antisense transcription, the more extensive nature of sense transcription, and promoter directionality.

Promoter directionality is controlled by U1 snRNP and polyadenylation signals

Project description:Transcription of the mammalian genome is pervasive, but productive transcription outside of protein-coding genes is limited by unknown mechanisms. In particular, although RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) initiates divergently from most active gene promoters, productive elongation occurs primarily in the sense-coding direction. Here we show in mouse embryonic stem cells that asymmetric sequence determinants flanking gene transcription start sites control promoter directionality by regulating promoter-proximal cleavage and polyadenylation. We find that upstream antisense RNAs are cleaved and polyadenylated at poly(A) sites (PASs) shortly after initiation. De novo motif analysis shows PAS signals and U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) recognition sites to be the most depleted and enriched sequences, respectively, in the sense direction relative to the upstream antisense direction. These U1 snRNP sites and PAS sites are progressively gained and lost, respectively, at the 5' end of coding genes during vertebrate evolution. Functional disruption of U1 snRNP activity results in a dramatic increase in promoter-proximal cleavage events in the sense direction with slight increases in the antisense direction. These data suggest that a U1-PAS axis characterized by low U1 snRNP recognition and a high density of PASs in the upstream antisense region reinforces promoter directionality by promoting early termination in upstream antisense regions, whereas proximal sense PAS signals are suppressed by U1 snRNP. We propose that the U1-PAS axis limits pervasive transcription throughout the genome. 3' end sequencing of poly (A) + RNAs in mouse ES cells with and without U1 snRNP inhibition using antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (AMO). Each with two biological replicates.

The Landscape of Antisense Gene Expression in Human Cancers

Project description:<p>High throughput RNA Sequencing has revealed that the human genome is widely transcribed. However, the extent of natural antisense transcription, the molecular mechanisms by which natural antisense transcripts (NATs) might affect their cognate sense genes, and the role of NATs in cancer are less well understood. Here, we use strand-specific paired-end RNA sequencing (ssRNASeq) on a cohort of 376 cancer patients covering 9 tissue types to comprehensively characterize the landscape of antisense expression. Our results reveal that greater than 60% of annotated transcripts have measureable antisense expression and the expression of sense and antisense transcript pairs is in general positively correlated. Furthermore, by studying the expression of sense/antisense pairs across tissues we identify lineage-specific, ubiquitous and cancer-specific antisense loci. Our results raise the possibility that NATs participate in the regulation of well-known tumor suppressors and oncogenes. Finally, this study provides a catalogue of cancer related genes with significant antisense transcription (oncoNAT). This resource will allow researchers to investigate the molecular mechanisms of sense/antisense regulation and further advance our understanding of their role in cancer.</p>

Effect of INTS11, INTS9, CPSF73 knockdown on transcription

Project description:As a key component for transcription, Transcriptional results of INTS11 knockdown were analyzed by chromatin associated RNA sequencing (ChrRNA-seq). We used ChrRNA-seq data of HCT116-INTS11-AID cells under normal condition, induction condition and recovery condition, and HCT116-INTS9-AID cells, Chrna-seq data of HCT116-CPSF73-AID cells before and after protein knockdown were analyzed for gene expression profile.

H3K14 and H4 acetylation in wild-type cells of S. pombe

Project description:Antisense transcription can regulate sense gene expression. However, previous annotations of antisense transcription units have been based on detection of mature antisense long non-coding (aslnc)RNAs by RNA-Seq and/or micro-arrays, only giving a partial view of the antisense transcription landscape and incomplete molecular bases for antisense-mediated regulation. Here, we used Native Elongating Transcript sequencing to map genome-wide nascent antisense transcription in fission yeast. Strikingly, antisense transcription was detected for most protein-coding genes, correlating with low sense transcription, especially when overlapping the mRNA start site. RNA profiling revealed that the resulting aslncRNAs mainly correspond to cryptic Xrn1/Exo2-sensitive transcripts (XUTs). ChIP-Seq analyses showed that antisense (as)XUTs expression is associated with specific histone modifications patterns. Finally, we showed that asXUTs are controlled by the histone chaperone Spt6 and respond to meiosis induction, in both cases anti-correlating with levels of the paired-sense mRNAs, supporting physiological significance to antisense-mediated gene attenuation. Our work highlights that antisense transcription is much more extended than anticipated and might constitute an additional non-promoter determinant of gene regulation complexity.
