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

ABSTRACT: 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.

Transcription profiling by array of mouse promylocyte cell line induced to differentiate over four days

Project description:The Mouse Promylocyte (MPRO) cell line was induced to differentiate over four days during which time MYC expression decreases. MYC is required for rDNA transcription; by looking at global gene expression under these conditions, our aim was to correlate the expression of Pol I related/specific genes with that of MYC as well as contrast to those genes specific to Pol II and III transcription.

Sub1 occupancy in yeast cells in exponential growth condition

Project description:A genome-wide location analysis by ChIP on chip of the gene occupancy by Sub1 was undertaken to define the gene targets of Sub1 in vivo. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays were performed on epitope-tagged Sub1-3HA cross-linked chromatin from exponentially growing cells. Immunopurified DNA and DNA from whole-cell extracts were fluorescently labelled and competitively hybridized to DNA microarrays harbouring ORFs and intergenic regions. The ratio of fluorescence intensities at each site in the microarray provided a measure of the extent of Sub1 binding to a specific genomic locus. Data from three independent experiments were compiled. Many loci were found to be significantly enriched in active growth conditions where Sub1 is not essential for cell viability. Approximately one-fourth of the enriched loci were located within ORF and the others corresponded to intergenic regions and to genes encoding non-translated RNAs. The ACT1, PMA1, PYK1, ADH1 and snoRNA genes previously identified as DNA targets of Sub1 were indeed enriched in our data. Sub1 was also preferentially bound to a subset of Pol II-transcribed genes encoding constituents of the cell wall, the nucleosome and the ribosome. Remarkably, these Pol II genes represented only two-third of the enriched loci. The other ones corresponded to Pol III-transcribed genes present on the arrays or to the intergenic regions and ORFs adjacent to these genes, suggesting the association of Sub1 to all Pol III-transcribed genes in conditions of active growth. The arrays used had a poor coverage of the rDNA gene locus. Nevertheless, we found a significant enrichment of the different loci corresponding to that region suggesting that Sub1 associates at many locations throughout the rDNA gene. Altogether, the results suggested that Sub1 could be a regulator of all three transcription systems. Keywords: ChIP-Chip

ChIP-seq analysis of yeast Ty1 integrase reveal the role of the AC40 interacting domain in the recruitment at both Pol I and Pol III-transcribed genes

Project description:In budding yeast, the selective integration of the Ty1 LTR retrotransposon upstream of RNA polymerase III (Pol III)-transcribed genes requires the interaction between the AC40, a common subunit of Pol III and Pol I, and Ty1 integrase (IN1). The AC40/IN1 interaction involves a short sequence, the targeting domain (TD), present in the C-terminal part of IN1. Chip-seq analysis using WT or mutated Ty1 integrase demonstrated that TD is responsible for the recruitment of IN1 at both Pol I and Pol III-transcribed genes. Moreover, the introduction of the C-terminal residues of Ty1 in the Ty5 retrotransposon, which preferentially integrates in heterochromatin at silent mating loci (HMR and HML) and near telomeres, leads to its retargeting at Pol III-transcribed genes.

Pol II and its associated epigenetic marks are present at pol III-transcribed non-coding RNA genes (II)

Project description:Epigenetic control is an important aspect of gene regulation. Despite detailed understanding of many examples, the transcription of non-coding RNA genes by RNA polymerase (pol) III is less well characterized. Here we profile the epigenetic features of pol III target genes throughout the human genome. This reveals that the chromatin landscape of pol III-transcribed genes resembles that of pol II templates in many ways, although there are also clear differences. Our analysis also discovered an entirely unexpected phenomenon, namely that pol II co-localizes with the majority of genomic loci that are bound by pol III.

Genome-wide targets of conserved histone chaperone Asf1 in budding yeast

Project description:Asf1, through its histone chaperone activity, helps chromatin closing/opening during DNA replication, repair, recombination and transcription. Despite extensive research on Asf1-mediated physiological functions, a genome-wide localization map is lacking, limiting our knowledge of chromosomal features targeted by Asf1. We present a high-resolution genome-wide map of Asf1, localizing at essentially all pol III-transcribed genes, highly active pol II-transcribed genes and heterochromatic features. Pol III-transcribed genes are negatively regulated by Asf1, whereas pol II genes are regulated indirectly by Asf1-dependent H3K56 acetylation. Interestingly, Asf1 localization along yeast chromosomes shows nearly identical distribution to that of the condensin complex, predicting a functional overlap in chromosome architecture and genome organization.
