RNA Pol II Length and Disorder Enable Cooperative Scaling of Transcriptional Bursting

ABSTRACT: RNA Polymerase II contains a disordered C-terminal domain (CTD) whose length enigmatically correlates with genome size. The CTD is crucial to eukaryotic transcription, yet the functional and evolutionary relevance of this variation remains unclear. Here, we use smFISH, live imaging, and RNA-seq to investigate how CTD length and disorder influence transcription. We find that length modulates the size and frequency of transcriptional bursting. Disorder is highly conserved and mediates CTD-CTD interactions, an ability we show is separable from protein sequence and necessary for efficient transcription. We build a data-driven quantitative model, simulations of which recapitulate experiments and support CTD length promotes initial polymerase recruitment to the promoter but slows down its release from it, and that CTD-CTD interactions enable promoter recruitment of multiple polymerases. Our results reveal how these tunable parameters provide access to a range of transcriptional activity, offering a new perspective for the mechanistic significance of CTD length and disorder in transcription across eukaryotes.

Distinctive Interactomes of RNA polymerase II phosphorylation during different stages of transcription

Project description:During eukaryotic transcription, RNA polymerase II undergoes dynamic post-translational modification on the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit , generating a sophisticated PTM landscape for the spatiotemporal recruitment to transcriptional regulators. To delineate the protein interactomes recruited to Pol II at different stages of transcription, we in vitro reconstructed phosphorylation patterns of the CTD at Ser5 and Ser2 positions, the hallmark phosphorylation at the initation and productive elongation stages of transcription, respectively. Distinctive protein interactomes indicates different proteins are recruited to RNA polymerase II at different stages of transcription by the phosphorylation of Ser2 and Ser5 of the CTD heptads. Calcium Homeostasis Endoplasmic Reticulum Protein (CHERP) specifically binds to the Ser2 of the heptad. The loss of the interaction between CHERP and Pol II results in broad alternative splicing events. Our method points to a new method to distinguish the PTM codes that coordinate the transcription process.

CTD tyrosine phosphorylation impairs termination factor recruitment to transcribing RNA polymerase II

Project description:ChIP-chip was performed to identify the genomic binding locations for the termination factors Nrd1, and Rtt103, and for RNA polymerase (Pol) II phosphorylated at the tyrosine 1 and threonine 4 position of its C-terminal domain (CTD). In different phases of the transcription cycle, Pol II recruits different factors via its CTD, which consists of heptapeptide repeats with the sequence Tyr1-Ser2-Pro3-Thr4-Ser5-Pro6-Ser7. Here we show that the CTD of transcribing yeast Pol II is phosphorylated at Tyr1, and that this impairs recruitment of termination factors. Tyr1 phosphorylation levels rise downstream of the transcription start site (TSS), and decrease before the polyadenylation (pA) site. Tyr1-phosphorylated gene bodies are depleted of CTD-binding termination factors Nrd1, Pcf11, and Rtt103. Tyr1 phosphorylation blocks CTD binding by these termination factors, but stimulates binding of elongation factor Spt6. These results show that CTD modifications can not only stimulate but also block factor recruitment, and lead to an extended CTD code for transcription cycle coordination.

The consequences of RPB1-CTD truncation for human transcriptome dynamics

Project description:The carboxy-terminal domain of RPB1 subunit of RNA Polymerase II (CTD) plays an essential function in the regulation of gene expression and the coordination of co-transcriptional processes. CTD consists of hepta-amino acid repeats varying in number from 52 in humans to 26 in yeast and its length is crucial for spatial organization of transcriptional machinery in the nucleus. We found that the proximal half of the CTD is sufficient to support RNA metabolism and co-transcriptional processing in steady state conditions in human cells. Signal induced transcription, however, is severely impaired upon CTD shortening. Our data suggest that CTD length increased in evolution to allow for spatio-temporal control of gene expression patterns at least in part by facilitating enhancer function.

RNA expression analysis in RNA Pol II CTD mutants

Project description:The carboxyl-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) orchestrates dynamic recruitment of specific cellular machines during different stages of transcription. Signature phosphorylation patterns of Y1S2P3T4S5P6S7 heptapeptide repeats of the CTD engage specific “readers.” While phospho-Ser5 and phospho-Ser2 marks are ubiquitous, phospho-Thr4 is reported to only impact specific genes. Here, we investigate the RNA expression profile in WT and CTD-mutant strains of S. cerevisiae.

RNA polymerase II termination involves CTD tyrosine dephosphorylation by CPF subunit Glc7

Project description:At the 3'-ends of genes, RNA polymerase (Pol) II is dephosphorylated at tyrosine 1 residues of its C-terminal domain (CTD), resulting in recruitment of transcription termination factors. We show that the multisubunit cleavage and polyadenylation factor (CPF) is a Pol II CTD phosphatase and its Glc7 subunit is required for Tyr1 dephosphorylation at the poly-adenylation site and Pol II termination in vivo. ChIP-chip was performed to examine the effect of Glc7 nuclear depletion on genome-wide Pol II occupancy [using ?-Rpb3 (1Y26, cat. no. W0012, neoclone) antibody] and CTD tyrosine 1 phosphorylation levels [using ?-TyrY1P (3D12, D. Eick) antibody].

Variation of C-terminal domain governs RNA polymerase II genomic locations and alternative splicing in eukaryotic transcription (RNA-Seq)

Project description:The C-terminal domain of RPB1 (CTD) orchestrates transcription by recruiting regulators to RNA Pol II upon phosphorylation. Recent insights highlight CTD’s pivotal role in driving condensate formation on gene loci. Yet, the molecular mechanism behind how CTD-mediated recruitment of transcriptional regulators influences condensates formation remains unclear. Our study unveils that phosphorylation reversibly dissolves phase separation induced by the unphosphorylated CTD. Phosphorylated CTD, upon specific association with transcription regulatory proteins, forms distinct condensates from unphosphorylated CTD. Function studies demonstrate CTD variants with diverse condensation properties in vitro exhibit difference in promoter binding and mRNA co-processing in cells. Notably, varying CTD lengths lead to alternative splicing outcomes impacting cellular growth, linking the evolution of CTD variation/length with the complexity of splicing from yeast to human. These findings provide compelling evidence for a model wherein post-translational modification enables the transition of functionally specialized condensates, highlighting a co-evolution link between CTD condensation and splicing.

Expanding the CTD code: methylation of non-consensus Lysine residues marks early transcription in mammalian cells

Project description:Dynamic post-translational modification of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) coordinates the co-transcriptional recruitment of enzymatic complexes that regulate chromatin states and co-transcriptional processing of nascent RNA. Extensive phosphorylation of serine residues occurs at the structurally-disordered C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest RNAPII subunit, which is composed of multiple heptapeptide repeats with consensus sequence Y1-S2-P3-T4-S5-P6-S7. Serine-5 and Serine-7 phosphorylation mark transcription initiation, whereas Serine-2 phosphorylation coincides with productive elongation. In vertebrates, the CTD has eight non-canonical substitutions of Serine-7 into Lysine-7, which can be acetylated (K7ac). Here, we describe for the first time mono- and di-methylation of CTD Lysine-7 residues (K7me1 and K7me2). K7me1 and K7me2 are observed during the earliest transcription stages and precede or accompany Serine-5 and Serine-7 phosphorylation. Genome wide mapping of 2 novel RNAPII post-translational modifications (CTD-K7me1 and CTD-K7me2) in mouse ES cells.
