SPT6 interacts with NSD2 and facilitates interferon-stimulated transcription

ABSTRACT: SPT6, encoded by the SUPT6H in humans and Supt6 in mice, respectively, is a conserved histone chaperone that interacts with RNA polymerase II and participates in transcription elongation. However, the question of how SPT6 comes into play in transcriptional activation upon signaling, particularly in mammalian cells, has remained elusive. We investigated the contribution of SPT6 to interferon beta (IFNbeta) induced transcription in mouse NIH3T3 cells. IFNbeta triggers rapid and high level transcription of many IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs). We report here that SPT6 is recruited to ISGs after IFN stimulation. This recruitment was dependent on the interaction with the methyltransferase, NSD2. Further, siRNA-based SPT6 knockdown reduced levels of ISG activation. RNA-Seq analysis showed that SPT6 knockdown diminished about 50% of ISGs whose induction levels were higher than those unaffected by SPT6 knockdown. Under the tested conditions, SPT6 knockdown did not measurably change expression of constitutively expressed genes. This report highlights that SPT6 is recruited in a stimulus-dependent manner and elicits a major impact on signal induced transcription.

RNA Polymerase II interactome in presence or absence of SPT6 in U2OS cells

Project description:SPT6 is a histone chaperone that tightly binds RNA polymerase II (POL2) during transcription elongation. However, its primary role in POL2 transcription is uncertain. We used targeted protein degradation to rapidly deplete SPT6 in human cells and analyzed defects in POL2 behavior by a multi-omics approach and mathematical modeling. Our data indicate that SPT6 is a crucial factor for POL2 processivity and is therefore required for the productive transcription of protein-coding genes. Unexpectedly, SPT6 also has a vital role in POL2 termination, as acute depletion induced readthrough transcription for thousands of genes. Long-term depletion of SPT6 induced cryptic intragenic transcription, as observed earlier in yeast. However, this phenotype was not observed upon acute SPT6 depletion and therefore can be attributed to accumulated epigenetic perturbations in the absence of SPT6. In conclusion, targeted protein degradation of SPT6 allowed the temporal discrimination of its function as an epigenetic safeguard and POL2 elongation factor.

Casein Kinase II Phosphorylation of Spt6 Enforces Transcriptional Fidelity by Maintaining Spn1-Spt6 Interaction

Project description:Spt6 is a histone chaperone that associates with RNA polymerase II and deposits nucleosomes in the wake of transcription. Although Spt6 has an essential function in nucleosome deposition, it is not known whether this function is regulated by post-translational modification. Here, we report that casein kinase II (CKII) phosphorylation of Spt6 directs nucleosome reassembly at the 5’ ends of a broad range of genes to prevent aberrant antisense transcription and enforce transcriptional directionality. Mechanistically, we show that interaction of Spt6 with Spn1 – a constitutive binding partner required for chromatin reassembly and full recruitment of Spt6 to genes is positively regulated by CKII phosphorylation of Spt6. Together, our study defines a previously unknown function for CKII phosphorylation in transcription, and further, highlights the importance of post-translational modification as a mechanism to fine-tune the functions of histone chaperones.

Spatial regulation of transcription and histone occupancy by histone chaperones FACT and Spt6

Project description:The FACT complex and Spt6 are conserved histone chaperones that are recruited to the open reading frames of transcribed genes. In this study, we provide evidence that FACT interaction with acetylated H3 tail is important for its localization to the coding sequences. Pol II CTD kinase Kin28 additionally stimulates FACT recruitment to a subset of genes. Pol II occupancies in the 5’ ends of transcribed genes are greatly reduced on depleting FACT, whereas reduced occupancies at the 3’ ends were observed upon Spt6 depletion indicating that these factors modulate Pol II progression through distinct regions of transcribed coding sequences. While FACT is largely responsible for reassembling histones, we uncover a role for Spt6 in promoting histone eviction in addition to widely-accepted role for Spt6 in histone reassembly. Consistent with their localization in the coding regions, simultaneously impairing FACT and Spt6 function severely dampens histone eviction and impairs transcription genome-wide. ChIP-chip experiments to measure Spt16 occupancies in WT and kin28as mutant, as well Rpb3 and histone H3 occupancies in undepleted or depleted cells for Spt16 and Spt6, and also in the strain lacking Spt6 tandem SH2 domain

Analysis of RNA polymerase II interacting proteins in wild-type and spt6-1004 yeast cells.

Project description:The histone chaperone Spt6 is involved in promoting elongation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), maintaining chromatin structure, regulating co-transcriptional histone modifications, and controlling mRNA processing. These diverse functions of Spt6 are partly mediated through its interactions with RNAPII and other factors in the transcription elongation complex. In this study, we used mass spectrometry to characterize the differences in RNAPII interacting factors between wild-type cells and those depleted for Spt6, leading to the identification of proteins that depend on Spt6 for their interaction with RNAPII. In all, eight samples were processed - four genotypes (1. SPT6, RPB3-untagged; 2. SPT6, RPB3-tagged; 3. spt6-1004, RPB3-untagged; 4. spt6-1004; RPB3-tagged) in biological duplicates.

Spt6 is required for the fidelity of promoter selectivity

Project description:Spt6 is a conserved factor that controls transcription and chromatin structure across the genome. Although viewed as an elongation factor, spt6 mutations allow transcription from within coding regions, suggesting that Spt6 also controls initiation. To comprehensively characterize the requirement for Spt6 in transcription, we have used four approaches: TSS-seq and TFIIB ChIP-nexus to assay transcription initiation, NET-seq to assay elongating RNAPII, and MNase-seq to assay nucleosome occupancy and positioning. Our results demonstrate that Spt6 represses transcription initiation at thousands of intragenic promoters. We characterize these intragenic promoters, and find some features conserved with genic promoters and other features that are distinct. Finally, we show that Spt6 regulates transcription initiation at most genic promoters and propose a model of initiation site competition to account for this. Together, our results demonstrate that Spt6 controls the fidelity of transcription initiation throughout the genome and reveal the magnitude of the potential for expressing alternative genetic information via intragenic promoters.

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 association with RNAPII directs mRNA turnover during transcription

Project description:Spt6 is an essential histone chaperone that mediates nucleosome reassembly during gene transcription. Spt6 interacts with elongating RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) via a tandem Src2 homology (tSH2) domain, but it is not known whether this particular interaction is required for the nucleosome reassembly activity of Spt6. Here, we show that Spt6 recruitment to genes and its nucleosome reassembly functions are largely independent of association with RNAPII. Instead, the Spt6-RNAPII association is required for post-transcriptional mRNA turnover. Mechanistically, association of Spt6 with RNAPII couples the Ccr4-Not complex to the transcribed regions of genes, which we show regulates the timely deadenylation and degradation of a broad range of mRNAs including those required for cell cycle progression. Thus, our findings reveal an unexpected control mechanism for mRNA turnover facilitated by a histone chaperone during transcription.

Spt6 is required for heterochromatic silencing in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Project description:Spt6 is a conserved factor, critically required for several transcription and chromatin related processes. We now show that Spt6 and its binding partner, Iws1, are required for heterochromatic silencing in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Our studies demonstrate that Spt6 is required for silencing of all heterochromatic loci and that an spt6 mutant has an unusual combination of heterochromatic phenotypes compared to previously studied silencing mutants. Unexpectedly, we find normal nucleosome positioning over heterochromatin and normal levels of histone H3K9 dimethylation. However, we also find greatly reduced levels of H3K9 trimethylation, elevated levels of H3K14 acetylation, and reduced recruitment of several silencing factors. Our evidence suggests that Spt6 plays a role at both the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels; in an spt6 mutant, RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) occupancy at the pericentric regions is only modestly increased, while production of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) is lost. Taken together, our results suggest that Spt6 is required for multiple steps in heterochromatic silencing by controlling chromatin, transcriptional, and post-transcriptional processes.
