CDX1 and CDX2 suppress colon cancer stemness by inhibiting beta-catenin-facilitated formation of Pol II-DSIF-PAF1C complex

ABSTRACT: Homeobox transcription factors CDX1 and CDX2 (hereafter, CDX1/2) play key roles in determining the identity of intestinal epithelial cells and regulating their stem cell functions. However, the role of CDX1/2 in regulating colon cancer stemness and the underlying mechanism have been unclear. Here, we show that the complete loss of Cdx1 or concurrent loss of Cdx1/2 increased the stemness and malignancy of intestinal tumors. Consistently, CDX1/2 reduced the expression levels of cancer stemness-related genes including LGR5. CDX1/2 bound to the downstream region of the LGR5 transcription start site (TSS), where b-catenin also binds. Despite increased H3 acetylation and an open chromatin structure, CDX1/2 reduced the levels of DRB sensitivity-inducing factor (DSIF), RNA polymerase II-associated factor 1 (PAF1), and Pol II complexes around the LGR5 TSS. Through a homeodomain, CDX1/2 cooperatively inhibited the b-catenin-promoted formation of the active Pol II complex containing DSIF and PAF1 complexes by preventing interactions between b-catenin and these complexes, in an additive manner. Our findings suggest that CDX1/2 cooperatively suppress colonic tumorigenesis and cancer stemness by antagonizing b-catenin through the DSIF and PAF1 complexes. Additionally, DSIF and PAF1 complexes act as transcriptional platforms that integrate both tumor-suppressive and oncogenic signals into the expression of genes that controls colonic tumorigenesis.

SPT6 functions in transcriptional pause/release via PAF1C recruitment

Project description:In vitro studies identified various factors including P-TEFb, SEC, SPT6, PAF1, DSIF, and NELF functioning at different stages of transcription elongation driven by RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II). What remains unclear is how these factors cooperatively regulate pause/release and productive elongation in the context of living cells. Using an acute 5 protein-depletion approach, prominent release and a subsequent increase in mature transcripts, whereas long genes fail to yield mature transcripts due to a loss of processivity. Mechanistically, loss of SPT6 results in loss of PAF1 complex (PAF1C) from RNA Pol II, leading to NELF-bound RNA Pol II release into the gene bodies. Furthermore, SPT6 and/or PAF1 depletion impairs heat shock-induced pausing, pointing to a role for SPT6 in regulating RNA Pol II pause/release through the recruitment of PAF1C during the early elongation.

SPT6 functions in transcriptional pause-release via PAF1C recruitment [ChIP-seq]

Project description:In vitro studies identified various factors including P-TEFb, SEC, SPT6, PAF1, DSIF, and NELF functioning at different stages of transcription elongation driven by RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II). What remains unclear is how these factors cooperatively regulate pause/release and productive elongation in the context of living cells. Using an acute protein-depletion approach, we report that SPT6 depletion results in release of paused RNA Pol II. Short genes demonstrate a prominent release and a subsequent increase in mature transcripts, whereas long genes fail to yield mature transcripts due to a loss of processivity. Unexpectedly, the recruitment of PAF1 complex (PAF1C) to RNA Pol II fails upon SPT6 depletion, leading to the release of NELF-bound RNA Pol II into the gene bodies. Furthermore, SPT6 depletion impairs heat shock-induced pausing, pointing to a role for SPT6 in regulating RNA Pol II pause-release through PAF1C recruitment and NELF removal during the early elongation.

Paf1C regulates RNA polymerase II progression by modulating elongation rate

Project description:Elongation factor Paf1C regulates several stages of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription cycle, although it is unclear how it modulates Pol II distribution and progression in mammalian cells. We found that conditional ablation of Paf1 resulted in the accumulation of unphosphorylated and Ser5 phosphorylated Pol II around promoter proximal regions and within the first 20-30 kb of gene bodies, respectively. Paf1 ablation did not impact the recruitment of other key elongation factors, namely, Spt5, Spt6, and the FACT complex, suggesting that Paf1 function may be mechanistically distinguishable from each of these factors. Moreover, loss of Paf1 triggered an increase in TSS-proximal nucleosome occupancy, which could impose a considerable barrier to Pol II elongation past TSS-proximal regions. Remarkably, accumulation of Ser5P in the first 20-30 kb coincided with reductions in histone H2B ubiquitylation within this region. Furthermore, we show that nascent RNA species accumulate within this window, suggesting a mechanism whereby Paf1 loss leads to aberrant, prematurely terminated transcripts and diminution of full-length transcripts. Importantly, we found that loss of Paf1 results in Pol II elongation rate defects with significant rate compression. Our findings suggest that Paf1C is critical for modulating Pol II elongation rates by functioning beyond the pause-release step as an "accelerator" over specific early gene body regions.

Role of RNA polymerase II "pausing" in Drosophila development

Project description:According to previous studies, during Drosophila embryogenesis, RNA polymerase II is recruited to promoters at developmental stages preceding the stages of active transcription of genes. This work is aimed at exploring whether this mechanism is used during Drosophila metamorphosis. We performed ChIP-Seq analysis using antibodies to various modifications of RNA polymerase II (total, Pol II CTD Ser5P and Pol II CTD Ser2P), as well as to subunits of NELF, DSIF, PAF complexes and Brd4/Fs(1)h that control transcription elongation. We found that like in mid-embryogenesis during metamorphosis, promoters bind RNA polymerase II in the "paused" state preparing for activation at later stages of development. During mid-embryogenesis, RNA polymerase II in "pause" is phosphorylated at Ser5 and Ser2 of Rpb1 CTD and binds NELF, DSIF, and PAF complexes, but not Brd4/Fs(1)h. During metamorphosis, the "paused" RNA polymerase II complex includes Brd4/Fs(1)h in addition to NELF, DSIF, and PAF. The RNA polymerase II in this complex is phosphorylated at Ser5 at Rpb1 CTD, but not at Ser2.

Genome-wide map of RNA polymerase II, NELF, and DSIF in HeLa cells

Project description:Most metazoan promoters have RNA polymerase II (Pol II) paused slightly downstream of the transcription start site by NELF and DSIF. This pausing keeps these promoters available for rapid induction by P-TEFb, whose activity causes NELF to dissociate and Pol II and DSIF to elongate on the gene. ChIP-Seq data was generated for Pol II, NELF, and DSIF in HeLa cells and used to look at pausing downstream of unannotated promoters. 3x ChIP-Seq (Pol II, NELF, DSIF) in HeLa cells
