Recognition of cellular RNAs by the S9.6 antibody creates pervasive artifacts when imaging RNA:DNA hybrids

ABSTRACT: We showed that the majority of the signal observed in S9.6 immunofluorescence microscopy images of fixed human cells arises from RNA, not RNA:DNA hybrids. S9.6 staining is quantitatively unchanged by pre-treatment with the human RNA:DNA hybrid-specific nuclease, RNase H1, despite experimental verification that the enzyme was active in situ. S9.6 staining was, however, significantly sensitive to pre-treatments with RNase T1, and in some cases RNase III, two ribonucleases that specifically degrade single-stranded and double-stranded RNA, respectively. In contrast, genome-wide maps obtained by high-throughput DNA sequencing after S9.6-mediated DNA:RNA Immunoprecipitation (DRIP) are RNase H1-sensitive and RNase T1- and RNase III-insensitive. Altogether, these data demonstrate that the S9.6 antibody, though capable of recognizing RNA:DNA hybrids in situ and in vitro, suffers from a lack of specificity that precludes reliable imaging of RNA:DNA hybrids and renders associated imaging data inconclusive in the absence of controls for its promiscuous recognition of cellular RNAs.

Genome-wide distribution of RNA-DNA hybrids identifies RNase H targets in tRNA genes, retrotransposons and mitochondria

Project description:During transcription the nascent RNA can invade the DNA template, forming extended RNA-DNA duplexes (R-loops). Here we employ ChIP-seq in strains expressing or lacking RNase H to map targets of RNase H activity throughout budding yeast genome. In wild-type strains, R-loops were readily detected over the 35S rDNA region transcribed by Pol I and over the 5S rDNA transcribed by Pol III. In strains lacking RNase H activity, R-loops were elevated over other Pol III genes notably tRNAs, SCR1 and U6 snRNA, and were also associated with the cDNAs of endogenous TY1 retrotransposons, which showed increased rates of mobility to the 5?-flanking regions of tRNA genes. Unexpectedly, R-loops were also associated with mitochondrial genes in the absence of RNase H1, but not of RNase H2. Finally, R-loops were detected on highly expressed protein-coding genes in the wild-type, notably over the second exon of spliced ribosomal protein genes.

human HEK293T S9.6 Mass spectrometry

Project description:We are interested in proteins which could preferentially interact with DNA: RNA hybrids upon DNA damage. To achieve that, we treated HEK293T with 10 Gy IR, followed by 20 min recovery. We applied S9.6 antibody, which could recognize DNA: RNA hybrids structure, to isolate their interactome upon either normal conditions or DNA damage conditions, after which those proteins sample were sent for mass spec analysis, and proteins specifically interacting with DNA: RNA hybrids were then screened and analysed.

Transient RNA-DNA Hybrids Are Required for Efficient Double-Strand Break Repair

Project description:RNA-DNA hybrids are a major internal cause of DNA damage within cells, and their degradation by RNAse H enzymes is important for maintaining genomic stability. Here, we identified an unexpected role for RNA-DNA hybrids and RNase H enzymes in DNA repair. Using a site-specific DNA double-stranded break (DSB) system in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, we showed that RNA-DNA hybrids form as part of the homologous recombination (HR)-mediated DSB repair process and RNase H enzymes are essential for their degradation and efficient completion of DNA repair. Deleting RNase H stabilizes RNA-DNA hybrids around DSB sites and strongly impairs recruitment of the ssDNA-binding RPA complex. In contrast, overexpressing RNase H1 destabilizes these hybrids, leading to excessive strand resection and RPA recruitment, and to severe loss of repeat regions around DSBs. Our study challenges the existing model of HR-mediated DSB repair, and reveals a surprising role for RNA-DNA hybrids in maintaining genomic stability.

Mammalian RNase H1 directs RNA primer formation for mtDNA replication initiation and is also necessary for precise termination of mtDNA replication [RNA-seq]

Project description:The exact in vivo role for RNase H1 in mammalian mitochondria has been much debated and we show here that it is essential for site-specific formation of RNA primers to allow initiation of mtDNA replication. Without RNase H1, the RNA:DNA hybrids at the replication origins are not processed and mtDNA replication is instead initiated at non-canonical sites and becomes impaired. Furthermore, RNase H1 is also needed for replication completion and in its absence linear deleted mtDNA molecules extending between the two origins of mtDNA replication are formed. Finally, we report the first patient with a homozygous pathogenic mutation in the hybrid-binding domain (HBD) of RNase H1 causing impaired mtDNA replication. In contrast to catalytically dead pathological variants of RNase H1, this mutant version has enhanced enzyme activity. This finding shows that the RNase H1 activity must be strictly controlled to allow proper regulation of mtDNA replication.

ChIP-seq and R-ChIP-seq following BET bromodomain protein loss in HeLa cells

Project description:We report that treatment of HeLa cells with 2 hours of 100nM dBET6, which degrades BET bromodomain proteins, leads to global increases of RNA:DNA hybrids (R-loops) and DNA damage (γH2AX). R-loop occupancy was determined using a mutant version of RNase H1 (D210N) which binds to, but cannot resolve, R-loops.

RNase H2 degrades toxic RNA:DNA hybrids behind stalled forks to promote replication restart

Project description:R-loops represent a major source of replication stress but the mechanism by which these structures impede fork progression remains unclear. To address this question, we monitored fork progression, arrest and restart in S. cerevisiae cells lacking RNase H1 and H2, two enzymes responsible for degrading RNA:DNA hybrids. We found that while RNase H-deficient cells could replicate normally their chromosomes under unchallenged growth conditions, their replication was impaired when exposed to hydroxyurea (HU) or methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). Indeed, these cells exhibited increased levels of RNA:DNA hybrids at stalled forks and were unable to generate RPA-coated single-stranded (ssDNA), an important postreplicative step in resuming replication. Similar impairments in nascent DNA resection at HU-arrested forks were observed in human cells lacking RNase H2. However, the addition of triptolide, an inhibitor of transcription that induces RNA polymerase degradation, fully restored fork resection. Taken together, these data indicate that RNA:DNA hybrids not only act as barriers to replication forks, but also interfere with postreplicative fork repair mechanisms if not promptly degraded by RNase H.
