H3K4 methylation at active genes mitigates transcription-replication conflicts during replication stress

ABSTRACT: Methylated H3K4 (H3K4me) is highly conserved and has been widely considered to be involved in transcriptional control. However, this once popular model was recently challenged by multiple groups, because blocking this modification does not appreciably affect transcription. Thus, the function of the H3K4me remains unclear. To investigate how H3K4 methylation influences the processes of transcription and replication under HU-stress, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) to identify genomic sites of active transcription marked by Rpb3, a subunit of RNA Polymerase II, and sites of replication pausing marked by DNA Pol2, a subunit of DNA Polymerase e. Our data lead us to the surprising conclusion that H3K4me pauses the progression of replication forks, and we propose that high levels of H3K4me deposited by high transcriptional activity result in a large cushioning effect on fork progression to protect against transcription-replication collisions (TRCs), which cause genome instability.

H3K4 methylation buffers the effects of metabolic adaptation on replication initiation

Project description:In this study, we unravel a previously unknown function of H3K4 methylation (H3K4me; a universal marker of actively transcribed genes that also accumulates around replication origins) as a capacitor that masks the adverse effects of metabolic adaptation by facilitating initiation of replication.

RNAPII-dependent ATM signaling at collisions with replication forks [DSB]

Project description:Deregulation of RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) by oncogenic signaling leads to collisions of RNAPII with DNA synthesis machinery (transcription-replication conflicts, TRCs). TRCs can result in DNA damage and underlie genomic instability in tumor cells. Here we provide evidence that elongating RNAPII promotes activation of the ATM kinase at TRCs to drive DNA repair. We show the ATPase Wrnip1 that binds and protects stalled replication forks, associates with RNAPII and limits ATM activation. Wrnip1 binding to elongating RNAPII requires catalytic activity of the ubiquitin ligase Huwe1. Mutation of Huwe1 promotes the transfer of Wrnip1 onto replisome and induces TRCs stimulating ATM activation on RNAPII. This mechanism is evoked early upon replicative stress to induce Wrnip1 translocation and ATM signaling at TRCs. Thus, although primarily considered as genotoxic events, TRCs can provide a mechanism to maintain genome stability under replicative stress.

BRCA2 suppresses “head-on” transcription-replication conflicts incurred by dormant origin firing at transcription termination sites [RNA-seq]

Project description:BRCA2 is a tumor suppressor protein responsible for safeguarding the cellular genome from genotoxicity and replication stress, but the mechanism(s) by which this is achieved remains elusive. Here, we provide evidence that BRCA2 acts as a critical suppressor of “head-on” transcription-replication conflicts (HO-TRCs). Using Okazaki-fragment sequencing (Ok-seq) and computational analysis, we identified new origins (dormant origins) that are activated near the transcription termination sites (TTS) of highly expressed, long genes in response to replication stress. Dormant origins are a source for HO-TRCs, and drug treatments that inhibit dormant origin firing led to a reduction in HO-TRCs, R-loop formation, and DNA damage. Using super-resolution microscopy, we showed that HO-TRC events track with elongating RNA polymerase II, but not with transcription initiation. Importantly, RNaseH2 is recruited to sites of HO-TRCs in a BRCA2-dependent manner to help alleviate toxic R-loops associated with HO-TRCs. Collectively, our results identify a new source of genomic instability caused by HO-TRCs in BRCA2-deficient ovarian cancer precursor cells, providing a new strategy in modulating HO-TRCs to enhance genomic instability

Genome-wide Mapping of Topoisomerase Binding Sites Suggests Topoisomerase 3a (TOP3A) as a Reader of Transcription-Replication Conflicts (TRC)

Project description:Both transcription and replication can take place simultaneously on the same DNA template, potentially leading to transcription-replication conflicts (TRCs) and topological problems. Here we asked which topoisomerase(s) is/are the best candidate(s) for sensing TRC. Genome-wide topoisomerase binding sites were mapped in parallel for all the nuclear topoisomerases (TOP1, TOP2A, TOP2B, TOP3A and TOP3B). To increase the signal to noise ratio (SNR), we used ectopic expression of those topoisomerases in H293 cells followed by a modified CUT&Tag method. Although each topoisomerase showed distinct binding patterns, all topoisomerase binding signals positively correlated with gene transcription. TOP3A binding signals were suppressed by DNA replication inhibition. This was also observed but to a lesser extent for TOP2A and TOP2B. Hence, we propose the involvement of TOP3A in sensing both head-on TRCs (HO-TRCs) and codirectional TRCs (CD-TRCs). In which case, the TOP3A signals appear concentrated within the promoters and first 20 kb regions of the 5’ -end of genes, suggesting the prevalence of TRCs and the recruitment of TOP3A in the 5’-regions of transcribed and replicated genes.

Primase excites the competition of templating transcription and lagging replication to boost DNA damage

Project description:Head-on transcription-replication conflicts (HO-TRCs) cause R-loops and DNA damage. We realized that HO-TRCs are the natural competition for templating transcription and lagging replication in the same DNA strand (termed TemLag competition), however, the regulatory mechanisms behind are unclear. We previously identified a chloroplast-localized RNase H1 protein AtRNH1C that can remove R-loops and relax HO-TRCs for genome integrity. Through the mutagenesis screen, we identified that the chloroplast-localized primase ATH exacerbates TemLag competition in the atrnh1c mutant. A mutation in ATH weakens the binding affinity of DNA, thus slowing down DNA replication and relieving TemLag competition. Overexpression of ATH boosts TemLag competition and intensifies DNA damage. Interestingly, strand-specific DNA damage sequencing reveals that TemLag competition induces single-strand DNA damage of the competitive strand at the end of transcription. These results illustrated a potentially conserved mechanism among organisms, of which the primase antagonizes R-loop clearance machinery to exaggerate TemLag competition and genome instability.
