Argonaute2 attenuates active transcription by limiting RNA Polymerase II elongation in Drosophila melanogaster [ChRIPseq-AGO2]

ABSTRACT: Increasing lines of evidence support that Argonaute2 (AGO2) harbors several nuclear functions in metazoa. In particular, Drosophila AGO2 modulates transcription of developmentally regulated genes; however, the molecular mechanisms behind AGO2 recruitment into chromatin and its function in transcription have not been deeply explored. In this study, we show that Drosophila AGO2 chromatin association depends on active transcription. In order to gain insight into how AGO2 controls transcription, we performed differential ChIP-seq analysis for RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) upon depletion of AGO2. Interestingly, we find specific accumulation of the elongating but not initiating form of Pol II after AGO2 knockdown, suggesting that AGO2 impairs transcription elongation. Finally, AGO2 also affects Negative Elongation Factor (NELF) chromatin association but not the Cyclin Dependent Kinase 9 (CDK9). Altogether, these results provide key insights into the molecular role of AGO2 in attenuating elongation of certain actively transcribed genes.

Argonaute2 and LaminB modulate gene expression by controlling chromatin topology (ChIP-seq)

Project description:Drosophila Argonaute2 (AGO2) is known to regulate expression of certain loci in an RNA interference-independent manner, but its genome-wide function on chromatin remains unknown. Here, we identified RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) and LaminB as AGO2 nuclear interactors. AGO2 and LaminB attenuate transcription at borders between both LaminB-associated domains (LADs) and topologically-associated domains (TADs). We identified a somatic target of AGO2 transcriptional repression, nht, which is immersed in a LAD located within a repressive TAD. Null mutation of AGO2 leads to ectopic expression of spermatogenesis genes dependent on nht. Finally, depletion of either AGO2 or LaminB results in reduced looping interactions within the TAD as well as ectopic inter-TAD interactions. Overall, our findings reveal coordination of AGO2 and LaminB to dictate overall genome architecture and thereby regulate gene expression.

Argonaute2 and LaminB modulate gene expression by controlling chromatin topology (neuRNA-seq)

Project description:Drosophila Argonaute2 (AGO2) is known to regulate expression of certain loci in an RNA interference-independent manner, but its genome-wide function on chromatin remains unknown. In order to elucidate the mechanism by which AGO2 regulates transcription, we performed mass spec analysis of factors that interact with AGO2 in nuclear extracts and identified RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) and LaminB among the top-associated proteins. We found that AGO2 and LaminB attenuate transcription genome-wide, including borders between both LaminB-associated domains (LADs) and topologically-associated domains (TADs). Furthermore, we identified a somatic target of AGO2 transcriptional repression, nht, which is immersed in a LAD located within a repressive TAD. Null mutation of AGO2 leads to ectopic expression of spermatogenesis genes dependent on nht. Finally, depletion of either AGO2 or LaminB results in reduced looping interactions within the TAD as well as ectopic inter-TAD interactions, as detected by 4C-seq analysis. Overall, our findings reveal coordination of AGO2 and LaminB to dictate overall genome architecture and thereby regulate gene expression.

RNAi-independent role for Argonaute2 in CTCF/CP190 chromatin insulator function

Project description:Chromatin insulators and Polycomb group (PcG) complexes control nuclear organization to effect changes in gene expression. In Drosophila, RNA silencing pathways influence long range interactions mediated by PcG proteins and nuclear localization of the gypsy insulator; however, the underlying mechanisms are unknown. Here, we identify a singular requirement for Argonaute2 (AGO2) for the activity of the CCCTC-binding factor (CTCF)/Centrosomal protein 190 (CP190) dependent Fab-8 insulator. AGO2 and CP190 interact physically, and genome wide localization of AGO2 by chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) reveals extensive colocalization of AGO2 with insulators and Polycomb Response Elements (PREs) but minimal overlap with regions of endogenous small interfering RNA (endo-siRNA) production. Finally, depletion of either CTCF or CP190 results in loss of AGO2 association with insulators, PREs, and other cis-regulatory regions. Our findings suggest that Dicer-independent recruitment of AGO2 to chromatin by insulator proteins promotes the definition of transcriptional domains throughout the genome.
