Project description:Approximately half of purified mammalian RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is associated with a tightly interacting sub-stoichiometric subunit called Gdown1, encoded by the POLR2M gene. Previous in vitro and structural studies have established that Gdown1 potently inhibits transcription initiation through competitive interactions with general transcription factors and blocks the Pol II termination activity of transcription termination factor 2 (TTF2). However, the biological functions of Gdown1 remain poorly understood. Here, we utilized genetic, microscopic, and multi-omics approaches to functionally characterize Gdown1 in multiple human cell lines. Remarkably, acute depletion of Gdown1 led to minimal direct effects on gene expression and transcription. We show that Gdown1 resides predominantly in the cytoplasm of interphase cells, shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus, and is directly regulated by nuclear export. Gdown1 enters the nucleus at the onset of mitosis prior to complete breakdown of the nuclear envelope, whereupon association with Pol II becomes possible. Consistently, genetic ablation of Gdown1 is associated with partial de-repression of mitotic transcription, and Gdown1 KO cells present with a growth defect and evidence of aberrant mitoses coupled to p53 pathway activation. Evidence is presented demonstrating that Gdown1 association with Pol II elongation complexes in vitro modulates the combined functions of purified productive elongation factors PAF1C, RTF1, SPT6, DSIF, and P-TEFb. Collectively, our findings support a model wherein the Pol II-regulatory function of Gdown1 occurs during mitosis and is required for genome integrity.

Project description:Approximately half of purified mammalian RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is associated with a tightly interacting sub-stoichiometric subunit, Gdown1. Previous studies have established that Gdown1 inhibits transcription initiation through competitive interactions with general transcription factors and blocks the Pol II termination activity of transcription termination factor 2 (TTF2). However, the biological functions of Gdown1 remain poorly understood. Here, we utilized genetic, microscopic, and multi-omics approaches to functionally characterize Gdown1 in three human cell lines. Acute depletion of Gdown1 caused minimal direct effects on transcription. We show that Gdown1 resides predominantly in the cytoplasm of interphase cells, shuttles between the cytoplasm and nucleus, and is regulated by nuclear export. Gdown1 enters the nucleus at the onset of mitosis. Consistently, genetic ablation of Gdown1 is associated with partial de-repression of mitotic transcription, and Gdown1 KO cells present with evidence of aberrant mitoses coupled to p53 pathway activation. Evidence is presented demonstrating that Gdown1 modulates the combined functions of purified productive elongation factors PAF1C, RTF1, SPT6, DSIF, and P-TEFb in vitro. Collectively, our findings support a model wherein the Pol II-regulatory function of Gdown1 occurs during mitosis and is required for stably maintaining a pattern of gene expression across cell divisions. To characterize potential interactors of Gdown1 in the cytoplasm, an eGFP-TEV-Gdown1 HAP1 cell line was developed. Cytosolic extracts were prepared, GFP-Trap Agarose (Chromotek) was utilized to pull down Gdown1 and associated factors, and associated proteins were characterized by LC-MS/MS.

Project description:Most human genes are loaded with promoter proximally paused RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) molecules that are poised for release into productive elongation by P-TEFb. Gdown1, a protein that renders RNAP II responsive to mediator, is involved in RNAP II elongation control. During in vitro transcription assays Gdown1 specifically blocked elongation stimulation by TFIIF, inhibited the termination activity of TTF2, and influenced pausing factors NELF and DSIF, but did not affect the function of TFIIS or the mRNA capping enzyme. Without P-TEFb, Gdown1 led to the production of stably paused polymerases in the presence of nuclear extract. ChIP-Seq data demonstrated that Gdown1 mapped over essentially all poised polymerases across the human genome. Gdown1 increases the stability of poised polymerases while maintaining their responsiveness to P-TEFb, and mediator overcomes a Gdown1-mediated block of initiation by allowing TFIIF function. 7 ChIP-Seq data for Pol II and Gdown1 in human HeLa cell.

Project description:In mouse, the adrenocortical dysplasia (acd) phenotype shows limb and body axis anomalies, as a result of p53-dependent apoptosis, and perinatal lethality. The p53 deficiency partially rescues anomalies, but not perinatal lethality, implicating the involvement of p53-independent mechanisms in the acd phenotype. Differentially expressed genes in acd mutant and double mutant embryos were identified. p53-dependent and –independent pathways contributing to acd phenotype were characterized. We used microarrays to analyze gene expression profiles of acd and double mutant embryos and to identify p53 dependent and –independent mechanisms underlying acd phenotype.

Project description:We used ChIP-seq to assess where p53 binds in the human genome and how that binding changes during the DNA double-strand break response. In particular, we considered the 1-Mb-wide window centered on the MYC locus. Contrary to previous reports, we found no evidence of p53 binding at the MYC promoter. Rather, we identified three locations downstream of MYC at which p53 was bound; binding at each of these regions increased during the DNA double-strand break response.
