ABSTRACT: Long-read SMRT cDNA sequencing of nascent RNA from exponentially growing S. pombe cells was employed to obtain transcription elongation and splicing information from single transcripts. Nascent RNA was prepared from the yeast chromatin fraction (Carrillo Oesterreich, Preibisch, Neugebauer, Mol Cell 2010). The nascent 3’ end was labeled with a 3’ DNA adaptor through ligation. The adaptor sequence served as template for full-length reverse transcription and double-stranded cDNA was obtained in a transcriptome-wide PCR. SMRT DNA sequencing libraries were prepared subsequently.

SMRT DNA sequencing libraries were prepared subsequently. Nascent RNA profiles for mainly intron-containing genes were generated with long-read SMRT cDNA sequencing.
Project description:Short-read sequencing of nascent RNA from exponentially growing S. pombe cells was employed to quantify co-transcriptional splicing and expression levels. Nascent RNA was prepared from the yeast chromatin fraction (Carrillo Oesterreich, Preibisch, Neugebauer, Mol Cell 2010). Single-end Illumina sequencing data were generated from chromatin-associated, non-polyadenylated RNA (nascent RNA) and cytoplasmic mRNA for reference. In an experiment to test for splicing-associated gene expression changes cells were treated with 10mM Caffeine for 15minutes and nascent and mRNA-seq data were generated subsequently.
Project description:Targeted paired-end sequencing of cDNA from unfragmented nascent RNA from exponentially growing S. cerevisiae cells was employed to obtain Pol II transcription elongation and splicing information from single transcripts. Nascent RNA was prepared from the yeast chromatin fraction (Carrillo Oesterreich, Preibisch, Neugebauer, Mol Cell 2010) or enriched from total RNA with polyadenylated RNA depletion. The nascent 3’ end was labeled with a 3’ DNA adaptor through ligation. A PCR with a forward primer in the first exon of select intron-containing genes amplifies nascent transcripts of specific genes and ensures sequencing adaptor attachment for paired-end sequencing. With this approach co-transcriptional splicing progression with distance from the intron end could be analyzed for 87 genes. Note that the unmapped and mapped data also include genes that did not pass the read coverage requirements in SMIT analysis.

Project description:We combined the nuclear run-on (NRO) assay which labels and captures nascent transcripts with high throughput DNA sequencing to examine transcriptional activity in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Examination of nascent transcripts and steady-state transcripts in exponentially growing and heat-shock treated yeast.
Project description:To test the role of Mpe1 in transcription termination we inserted a mini-auxin induced degron (mAID) at the C-terminal end of the endogenous MPE1 locus in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We treated Mpe1-mAID cells (JRY101) or wild type cells (WT, YMK728) with 1 mM auxin for 30 minutes and labeled the nascent RNA with 4-thiouracil (4tU) for 6 minutes. The nascent RNA fraction was prepared by biotinylating the 4tU-labeled RNA followed purification with streptavidin beads. Nascent and total RNA fractions were depleted of ribosomal RNA and strand-specific libraries prepared. Libraries were single-end sequenced using an Ilummina HiSeq 4000 instrument.
Project description:wt and sua7-1 nascent mRNA profiling was performed using the GRO-seq approach. Br-UTP labelling of nascent RNA followed by immunoprecipitation and cDNA library preparation with sequencing (peformed exactly as described in O'Brien et al., 2023). Three biological replicates were performed.
