Regulation of the RNAPII Pool Is Integral to the DNA Damage Response [RNA-seq]

ABSTRACT: In response to transcription-blocking DNA damage, cells orchestrate a multi-pronged reaction, involving transcription-coupled DNA repair, degradation of RNAPII and genome-wide transcription shutdown. How these responses are connected has remained unclear. Here we show that damage-induced ubiquitylation of RNAPII itself, at a single lysine (RPB1 K1268), is the focal point for DNA damage response coordination. K1268-ubiquitylation affects DNA repair and signals RNAPII degradation, essential for surviving genotoxic insult. It is also crucial for transcriptional shutdown, in the absence of which cells display dramatic transcriptome alterations. Additionally, regulation of RNAPII stability is central to transcription recovery – indeed, depletion of the RNAPII pool underlies the failure of this process in Cockayne syndrome B cells. These data expose regulation of global RNAPII levels as integral to the cellular DNA damage response, and open the intriguing possibility that RNAPII pool size generally affects cell-specific transcription programmes, in genome instability disorders and even normal cells.

ELOF1 is a transcription-coupled DNA repair factor that directs RNA polymerase II ubiquitylation

Project description:Cells employ transcription-coupled repair (TCR) to eliminate transcription-blocking DNA lesions. DNA damage-induced binding of the TCR-specific repair factor CSB to RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) triggers RNAPII ubiquitylation at a single lysine (K1268) by the CRL4CSA ubiquitin ligase. How CRL4CSA is specifically directed toward the K1268 site is unknown. Here, we identify ELOF1 as the missing link that facilitates RNAPII ubiquitylation, a key signal for the assembly of downstream repair factors. This function requires its constitutive interaction with RNAPII close to the K1268 site, revealing ELOF1 as a specificity factor that interacts with and positions CRL4CSA for optimal RNAPII ubiquitylation. Drug-genetic interaction screening also reveals a CSB-independent compensatory pathway in which ELOF1 protects cells against DNA replication stress by preventing DNA damage-induced R-loops. Our study offers key insights into the molecular mechanisms of TCR and provides a genetic framework of the interplay between the transcriptional stress response and DNA replication.

ARMC5-mediated degradation of RNA polymerase II as a last resort in the promoter-proximal pausing checkpoint [TTchem-Seq]

Project description:RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) promoter-proximal pausing is an early step in the transcription cycle, which occurs alongside important events such as mRNA capping. Here, we identify a ubiquitin ligase complex, CUL3-ARMC5 (CRL3ARMC5) which is required for targeting promotor-proximally paused RNAPII for degradation. While a basal level of ARMC5-dependent RNAPII ubiquitylation/degradation occurs even in unperturbed cells, depletion of proteins regulating promoter-proximal pausing results in markedly increased ubiquitylation. We suggest that such RNAPII ubiquitylation/degradation serves as a “last resort” pathway for removing inept polymerases at a promoter-proximal pause checkpoint to avoid their release for unproductive transcript elongation. In agreement with this idea, ARMC5 knockout cells display increased levels of nascent transcription but with pre-mRNAs exhibiting capping defects. Together, our findings support a model in which promoter-proximal pausing functions as a transcription cycle checkpoint and indicate broad role for the CRL3ARMC5 ligase in RNAPII poly-ubiquitylation and degradation.

ELOF1 is a transcription-coupled DNA repair factor that directs RNA polymerase II ubiquitylation

Project description:Removal of transcription-blocking DNA lesions requires the binding of transcription-coupled repair (TCR) factors to DNA damage-stalled RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). The full repertoire of factors required for TCR remains to be elucidated. Through genome-wide CRISPR screens and strand-specific ChIP-seq, we identify the RNAPII-associated factor ELOF1 as a new core TCR component. Mechanistically, ELOF1 does not affect the association of TCR components CSB and the CRL4CSA ubiquitin ligase, but instead regulates RNAPII ubiquitylation, and subsequent ubiquitin-dependent recruitment of repair factors. This function requires its constitutive interaction with RNAPII close to the K1268 site, revealing ELOF1 as a specificity factor that positions CRL4CSA for optimal RNAPII ubiquitylation to orchestrate transcription-coupled repair. Finally, ELOF1 operates in a second transcription stress-response pathway, regulated by the deubiquitylating enzyme OTUD5.
