Project description:The mechanisms underlying nuclear body (NB) formation and their contribution to genome function are unknown. We examined the non-random positioning of Cajal bodies (CBs), major NBs involved in spliceosomal snRNP assembly, and their role in genome organization. CBs are predominantly located at the periphery of chromosome territories at a multi-chromosome interface. Genome-wide chromatin conformation capture analysis (4C-seq) using CB-interacting loci revealed that CB-associated regions are enriched with highly expressed histone genes and U small nuclear and nucleoar RNA (sn/snoRNA) loci that form intra- and inter-chromosomal clusters. We observed a number of CB-dependent gene positioning events on chromosome 1. RNAi-mediated disassembly of CBs disrupts the CB-targeting gene clusters and suppresses the expression of U sn/snoRNA and histone genes. This loss of spliceosomal snRNP production resulted in increased splicing noise, even in CB-distal regions. We conclude that CBs contribute to genome organization with global effects on gene expression and RNA splicing fidelity.

Project description:The non-polyadenylated mRNAs of replication-dependent histones (RDHs) and small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) are synthesized by RNA polymerase II at histone locus bodies (HLBs) and Cajal bodies (CBs), respectively. We previously showed that MED26-containing Mediator regulates the 3'-end processing of non-polyadenylated transcripts by recruiting Little Elongation Complex (LEC) to the genes. HLBs frequently associate with CBs, in which 3'-end processing factors for RDH genes are enriched; however, this association’s role has not been elucidated. Here, we show that disruption of the Mediator docking site for LEC by mutating the MED26-binding site of EAF1, a subunit of LEC, interferes with CBs’ association with HLBs, resulting in decreased inter-chromosome interaction between RDH gene clusters and increased aberrant unprocessed RDH gene transcripts. Our findings suggest a model in which LEC recruitment by Mediator plays a role in CBs’ association with HLBs to facilitate the 3'-end processing of RDH genes by supplying 3'-end processing factors.
