The telomeric Cdc13-Stn1-Ten1 complex regulates RNA pol II transcription

ABSTRACT: Specialized telomeric proteins have an essential role in maintaining genome stability through chromosome end protection and telomere length regulation. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the evolutionary conserved CST complex, composed of the Cdc13, Stn1 and Ten1 proteins, largely contributes to these functions. Here, we report the existence of genetic interactions between TEN1 and several genes coding for transcription regulators. Molecular assays confirmed this novel function of Ten1 and further established that it regulates the occupancies of RNA polymerase II and the Spt5 elongation factor within transcribed genes. Since Ten1, but also Cdc13 and Stn1, were found to physically associate with Spt5, we propose that Spt5 represents the target of CST in transcription regulation. Moreover, CST physically associated with Hmo1, previously shown to mediate the architecture of S phase-transcribed genes. The fact that, genome-wide, the promoters of genes down-regulated in the ten1-31 mutant are prefentially bound by Hmo1, leads us to propose a potential role for CST in synchronizing transcription with replication fork progression following head-on collisions. The present finding of the existence of extra-telomeric functions for Ten1 in the regulation of RNA polymerase II in cooperation with Stn1 and Cdc13 has profound repercussions on future studies both on telomeric and transcription pathways.

CST interacts with the cohesin complex and promotes chromosome cohesion

Project description:Sister chromatid cohesion (SCC), the pairing of sister chromatids following DNA replication until mitosis, is established by loading of the cohesin complex on newly replicated chromatids. Cohesin must then be maintained until mitosis to prevent segregation defects and aneuploidy. However, how SCC is established and maintained until mitosis remains incompletely understood and emerging evidence suggests that replication stress may lead to premature SCC loss. Here, we report that the single-stranded DNA-binding protein CTC1-STN1-TEN1 (CST) aids in SCC. CST primarily functions in telomere length regulation but also has known roles in replication restart and DNA repair. Following depletion of CST subunits, we observed an increase in the complete loss of SCC. Additionally, we determined that CST associates with the cohesin complex. Unexpectedly, we did not find evidence of altered cohesion or mitotic progression in the absence of CST; however, we did find that treatment with various replication inhibitors increased the association between CST and cohesin. Since replication stress was recently shown to induce SCC loss, we hypothesized that CST may be required to maintain or remodel SCC following DNA replication fork stalling. In agreement with this idea, SCC loss was greatly increased in CST-depleted cells following exogenous replication stress. Based on our findings, we propose that CST aids in the maintenance of SCC at stalled replication forks to prevent premature cohesion loss.

Role of 53BP1 in End Protection and DNA synthesis at DNA breaks [END-seq]

Project description:Double-strand break (DSB) repair choice is greatly influenced by the initial processing of DNA ends. 53BP1 limits the formation of recombinogenic single strand DNA (ssDNA) in BRCA1-deficient cells leading to defects in homologous recombination (HR). However, the exact mechanisms by which 53BP1 inhibits DSB resection remain unclear. Previous studies have identified two potential pathways: protection against exonucleases presumably through the Shieldin (SHLD) complex binding to ssDNA, and localized DNA synthesis through the (CTC1-STN1-TEN1) CST and DNA polymerase alpha (Polα) to counteract resection. We present evidence here that 53BP1-mediated exonuclease protection plays a more significant role than CST/Polα synthesis in countering hyper-resection at DSBs in G1 phase. Using a combinatorial approach of END-seq, SAR-seq, and RPA ChIP-seq, we directly assessed the extent of resection, DNA synthesis, and ssDNA, respectively, at AsiSI-induced DSBs. We show that in the presence of 53BP1, Polα-dependent DNA synthesis reduces the fraction of resected DSBs and the resection lengths. However, in the absence of 53BP1, Polα activity is sustained on ssDNA yet does not substantially counter resection. In contrast, Exo1 nuclease activity is essential for hyperresection in the absence of 53BP1. Thus, 53BP1 inhibits resection mainly through end-protection rather than by promoting fill-in.

The Myc binding partner Spt5 is essential for brain tumor growth in Drosophila

Project description:The transcription factor SPT5 physically interacts with MYC oncoproteins and is essential for the full transcriptional activation of MYC targets in cultured cells. Here, we use Drosophila to show that SPT5 is also required for MYC-dependent processes in vivo. Depletion of SPT5 strongly impairs the growth of a model neuronal tumor and substantially extends survival of tumor-bearing animals. This beneficial effect is also observed when SPT5 is knocked down systemically after tumor initiation, highlighting SPT5 is a potential drug target in human oncology.

Stn1 S74 phosphorylation - Telomeres, the protective ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are replicated through concerted actions by conventional DNA polymerases and telomerase, though the regulation of this process is not fully understood

Project description:Publication abstract: Telomeres, the protective ends of eukaryotic chromosomes, are replicated through concerted actions by conventional DNA polymerases and telomerase, though the regulation of this process is not fully understood. Telomere replication requires (C)-Stn1-Ten1, a telomere ssDNA-binding complex that is homologous to RPA. Here, we show that the evolutionarily conserved phosphatase Ssu72 is responsible for terminating the cycle of telomere replication in fission yeast. Ssu72 controls the recruitment of Stn1 to telomeres by regulating Stn1 phosphorylation at S74, a residue that lies within the conserved OB fold domain. Consequently, ssu72Δ mutants are defective in telomere replication and exhibit long 3′ overhangs, which are indicative of defective lagging strand DNA synthesis. We also show that hSSU72 regulates telomerase activation in human cells by controlling the recruitment of hSTN1 to telomeres. Thus, in this study, we demonstrate a previously unknown yet conserved role for the phosphatase SSU72, whereby this enzyme controls telomere homeostasis by activating lagging strand DNA synthesis, thus terminating the cycle of telomere replication. Summary of MS experiment: Stn1 protein was tagged in the C-terminus with 13-myc tag and purified by immunoprecipitation. The purified extracts were separated by SDS-PAGE and proteins between 63 and 75 kDa were excised and in-gel digested. Tryptic peptides were analyzed by LC-MS/MS using an AB Sciex TripleTOF 6600 mass spectrometer upon separation by nanoLC-MS using an Ekspert 425 nanoLC with cHiPLC. Stn1 protein was identified with 48% of coverage and Serine-74 was found to be phosphorylated.

Investigating the role of Hmo1 in transcription by Pol I in yeast.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the yeast protein, high mobility group protein (Hmo1), in rRNA synthesis. For over twenty years, Hmo1 has been proposed to be an activator of transcription by Pol I, but its regulatory mechanism remains largely undefined. Therefore, we used native elongating transcript sequencing (NET-seq) to explore the role of this factor in transcription by Pol I. Our NET-seq results demonstrated that in cells lacking Hmo1 (hmo1D), Pol I occupancy was significantly increased across the rDNA template, indicating an increased pause propensity in these cells. These data suggest that Hmo1 is an important transcription elongation factor for Pol I.

ZBTB48 is both a vertebrate telomere-binding protein and a transcriptional activator

Project description:Telomeres constitute the ends of linear chromosomes and together with the shelterin complex form a structure essential for genome maintenance and stability. In addition to the constitutive binding of the shelterin complex, other direct, yet more transient interactions are mediated by the CST complex and HOT1, while subtelomeric variant repeats are recognized by NR2C/F transcription factors. Recently, the Kruppel-like zinc finger protein ZBTB48 has been described as a novel telomere-associated factor in the vertebrate lineage. Here, we show that ZBTB48 binds directly both to telomeric as well as to subtelomeric variant repeat sequences. ZBTB48 is found at telomeres of human cancer cells regardless of the mode of telomere maintenance and it acts as a negative regulator of telomere length. In addition to its telomeric function, we demonstrate through a combination of RNAseq, ChIPseq and expression proteomics experiments that ZBTB48 acts as a transcriptional activator on a small set of target genes, including mitochondrial fission process 1 (MTFP1). This discovery places ZBTB48 at the interface of telomere length regulation, transcriptional control and mitochondrial metabolism.

A Top2 and Hmo1-mediated genome architectural pathway preventing chromosome fragility.

Project description:Specialized topoisomerases solve the topological constraints arising when replication forks encounter transcription. We have investigated Top2 contribution in S phase transcription. Specifically in S phase, Top2 binds intergenic regions close to transcribed genes without influencing their transcription. The Top2-bound loci exhibit low nucleosome density and accumulate yH2A when Top2 is defective. These intergenic loci associate with the HMG-protein Hmo1 throughout the cell cycle and are refractory to the histone variant Htz1. In top2 mutants, Hmo1 is deleterious and accumulates at pericentromeric regions in G2/M. Our data indicate that Top2 is dispensable for transcription and that Hmo1 and Top2 bind in the proximity of genes transcribed in S phase suppressing chromosome fragility at the M-G1 transition. We propose that an Hmo1-dependent epigenetic signature together with Top2 mediate a S-phasen architectural pathway controlling replicon dynamics when forks encounter transcriptionto preserve genome integrity.
