Full and partial genome-wide assembly and disassembly of the yeast transcription machinery in response to heat shock

ABSTRACT: Eukaryotic genes are controlled by sequence-specific DNA-binding proteins, chromatin regulators, general transcription factors, and elongation factors. Here we examine the genome-wide location of representative members of these groups and their redistribution when the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome is reprogrammed by heat shock. As expected, assembly of active transcription complexes are coupled to eviction of H2A.Z nucleosomes, and disassembly is coupled to the return of nucleosomes. Remarkably, a large number of promoters assemble and disassemble into partial pre-initiation complexes (partial PICs), containing TFIIA, TFIID (and/or SAGA), TFIIB, TFIIE, and TFIIF. At these promoters, neither TFIIH nor RNA polymerase II are recruited, and nucleosomes are not displaced. These promoters may be preparing for additional stress that naturally accompany heat stress. For example, we find that oxidative stress, which often occurs with prolonged exposure of cells to high temperature, coverts partial PICs into full PICs. Partial PICs therefore represent novel regulated intermediates that assemble in the midst of chromatin. Keywords: other

Project description:Despite being one of the first eukaryotic transcriptional regulatory elements identified, the sequence of a native TATA box and its significance remain elusive. Applying criteria associated with TATA boxes we queried several Saccharomyces genomes and arrived at the consensus TATA(A/T)A(A/T)(A/G). Approximately 20% of yeast genes contain a TATA box. Strikingly, TATA box-containing genes are associated with responses to stress, are highly regulated, and preferentially utilize SAGA rather than TFIID when compared to TATA-less promoters. Transcriptional regulation in yeast appears to be mechanistically bipolar, possibly reflecting a need to balance inducible stress-related responses with constitutive housekeeping functions. A strain containing amino terminal HA-tagged TBP and its parental untagged counterpart BY4741 (Resgen) were grown at 23?C in CSM to OD600 = 0.8-1.0. Cultures were shifted to 37?C for 5 minutes (to mimic heat treatments used elsewhere (Huisinga and Pugh, 2004)), then crosslinked at 23?C with 1% formaldehyde. ChIP was performed as described previously (Strahl-Bolsinger et al., 1997) with the some modification. Following cell disruption with glass beads, the chromatin was partially purified by centrifugation (Kurdistani and Grunstein, 2003). HA-TBP was immunopurified with 12CA5 antibody. After elution and reversal of the crosslinks, samples were subjected to non-specific amplification, labeling, and array hybridization as described (Bohlander et al., 1992; Chitikila et al., 2002). The amplification procedure was modified as follows. Following 15 round B amplification cycles, DNA was purified via QIAquick PCR Purification kit. Ten cycles were used in round C. Intergenic microarrays were generated by PCR amplification of entire intergenic regions of all yeast genes, then spotted onto glass slides. Spot intensities were filtered to remove any signal that was less then one standard deviation above local background. Three replicates were performed and their log2 ratios (enriched/input) were averaged. Keywords = Chromatin Immunoprecipitation Keywords = genome-wide binding
