Project description:DNA faces continuous threats from various endogenous and exogenous stresses. When damaged, DNA requires repair to enable proper cell functioning. Cells have evolved multiple repair pathways to maintain genome stability. Transcription mediated by RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II), which is conventionally linked with gene expression, plays an integral role in DNA repair. Transcription occurring at sites of DNA damage facilitates repair by generating functional transcripts, recruiting DNA repair factors, or modulating chromatin architecture. Conversely, the shutdown of transcription in nearby genes is crucial to ensure effective DNA repair. UV-induced DNA lesions have been shown to lead to a genome-wide suppression of transcription through RNA Pol II ubiquitylation and subsequent degradation. However, the global transcriptional response to double-strand breaks remains unclear.In this study, we employed mNET-Seq analysis to examine nascent transcripts bound to the CTD Y1P, S2P and S5P of RNA Pol II. Our data reveal a global transcriptional shutdown, as evidenced by a greater number of downregulated protein coding genes in response to irradiation. Interestingly, we observed a significant increase in Y1P antisense transcripts near promoters, known as PROMPTs, which are associated with the downregulated protein coding genes upon irradiation. Furthermore, an increased promoter pausing index correlated with elevated expression of PROMPTs in response to double strand breaks induction. Motif enrichment analysis uncovered binding sites for the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) in upregulated PROMPTs. Using proximity ligation assays, we demonstrated an increased proximity between Y1P RNA Pol II and PRC2 upon irradiation. Finally, we also report that inhibition of Y1P or depletion of PRC2 results in the loss of transcriptional repression of protein coding genes, associated with PROMPTs.

Project description:DNA damage triggers a complex transcriptional response that involves both activation and repression of gene expression. In this study, we investigated global changes in transcription in response to ionizing irradiation (IR), which induces double-strand breaks in DNA. We used mNET-seq to profile nascent transcripts bound to different phosphorylated forms of the RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) C-terminal domain (CTD). We found that IR leads to global transcriptional repression of protein-coding genes, accompanied by an increase in antisense transcripts near promoters, called PROMPTs, transcribed by RNA Pol II phosphorylated on tyrosine 1 (Y1P) residue of the CTD. These Y1P-transcribed PROMPTs are enriched for PRC2 binding sites and associated with RNA Pol II proximal promoter pausing. We show the interaction between Y1P RNA Pol II and PRC2, as well as PRC2 binding to PROMPTs. Inhibition of PROMPTs or depletion of PRC2 leads to loss of transcriptional repression. Our results reveal a novel function of Y1P-dependent PROMPTs in mediating PRC2 recruitment to chromatin and RNA Pol II promoter pausing in response to DNA damage.

Project description:Promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is a widespread in higher eukaryotes. Previous studies have shown that GAF is enriched at paused genes, but the role of GAF in pausing has not been well characterized on a genome-wide level. To investigate the role of GAF in pausing, we RNAi-depleted GAF from Drosophila S2 cells, and examined the effects on promoter-proximal polymerase. We confirmed the importance of GAF for pausing on the classic pause model gene Hsp70. To determine the dependence of pausing on GAF genome-wide, we assayed the levels of transcriptionally-engaged polymerase genome-wide using GRO-seq in control and GAF-RNAi cells. We found that promoter-proximal polymerase was significantly reduced on a subset of paused genes with GAF-bound promoters. There is a dramatic change in nucleosome distribution at genes with reduction in pausing upon GAF depletion and intergenic GAF binding sites in GAF knock-down, suggesting that GAF allows the establishment of pausing at these genes by directing nucleosome displacement off of the promoter. In addition, the insulator factor BEAF, BEAF-interacting protein Chriz, and transcription M1BP enrichment on unaffected genes suggests that redundant transcription factors or insulators protect other GAF-bound paused genes from GAF knock-down effects. Three biological replicates of MNase digested chromatin from LacZ-RNAi and GAGA factor-RNAi cells.

Project description:RNA polymerase II (pol II) transcribes all protein-coding and many non-coding RNAs in the human genome. Pol II transcription initiation is governed by the Pre-Initiation Complex (PIC), which contains TFIIA, TFIIB, TFIID, TFIIE, TFIIF, TFIIH, pol II, and Mediator. After initiation, pol II enzymes typically pause after transcribing less than 100 bases, and paused polymerases represent a common regulatory intermediate. Accordingly, paused pol II has been implicated in enhancer function, development and homeostasis, and diseases ranging from cancer to viral pathogenesis. Precisely how pol II promoter-proximal pausing is enforced and regulated remains unclear; however, protein complexes such as NELF and DSIF increase pausing whereas the activity of CDK9 (P-TEFb complex) correlates with pause release. To address specific mechanistic questions about pol II pausing and its regulation, we reconstituted human pol II promoter-proximal pausing in vitro, entirely with purified factors (no extracts). As expected, NELF and DSIF increased pol II pausing in vitro, whereas P-TEFb promoted pause release. Unexpectedly, the PIC alone was sufficient to reconstitute pol II pausing, suggesting that pausing is an inherent property of the PIC. In agreement, pol II pausing was lost upon replacement of the TFIID complex with TATA-binding protein (TBP); moreover, pausing was dependent upon TFIID subunits TAF1 and TAF2. TAF1/2 bind genomic DNA downstream of the pol II initiation site, invoking a “complex interaction” model for pausing. Consistent with this model, PRO-Seq experiments revealed increased transcription upon acute depletion (t=60 min) of TAF1 and TAF2 in human cells, and pol II pausing was disrupted at thousands of genes. Similar results were obtained in TAF1-depleted Drosophila S2 cells. Collectively, these data establish the general transcription factor TFIID as a genome-wide regulator of pol II promoter-proximal pausing.

Project description:The control of promoter-proximal pausing and the release of RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II) is a widely used mechanism for regulating gene expression in metazoans, especially for genes that respond to environmental and developmental cues. Here, we identify Pol II associated Factor 1 (PAF1) as a major regulator of promoter-proximal pausing. Knockdown of PAF1 leads to increased release of paused Pol II into gene bodies at thousands of genes. Genes with the highest levels of paused Pol II exhibit the largest redistribution of Pol II from the promoter-proximal region into the gene body in the absence of PAF1. PAF1 depletion results in increased nascent transcription and increased levels of phosphorylation of Pol II’s c-terminal domain on serine 2 (Ser2P). These changes can be explained by the recruitment of the Ser2P kinase Super Elongation Complex (SEC) effecting increased release of paused Pol II into productive elongation, thus establishing a novel function for PAF1 as a major regulator of pausing in metazoans. ChIP-seq of Pol II of different forms, SEC subunits, PAFc subunits and H2Bub in human cell lines targeted by PAF1 or scramble shRNA. ChIP-seq of total Pol II in HCT116 cells targeted by BRE1A or scramble shRNA. ChIP-seq of total Pol II in S2 cells targeted by Paf1 or LacZ RNAi. Total RNA-seq, nascent RNA-seq and GRO-seq in HCT116 cells targeted by PAF1 or scramble shRNA.
