The transcriptional elongation rate regulates alternative polyadenylation in yeast

ABSTRACT: Yeast cells undergoing the diauxic response show a striking upstream shift in poly(A) site utilization, with increased use of ORF-proximal poly(A) sites resulting in shorter 3’ mRNA isoforms for most genes. This altered poly(A) pattern is extremely similar to that observed in cells containing Pol II derivatives with slow elongation rates. Conversely, cells containing derivatives with fast elongation rates show a subtle downstream shift in poly(A) sites. Polyadenylation patterns of many genes are sensitive to both fast and slow elongation rates, and a global shift of poly(A) utilization is strongly linked to increased purine content of sequences flanking poly(A) sites. Pol II processivity is impaired in diauxic cells, but strains with reduced processivity and normal Pol II elongation rates have normal polyadenylation profiles. Thus, Pol II elongation speed is important for poly(A) site selection and for regulating poly(A) patterns in response to environmental conditions.

Chromatin regulates alternative polyadenylation via the RNA polymerase II elongation rate

Project description:The Pol II elongation rate influences poly(A) site selection, with slow and fast Pol II derivatives causing upstream and downstream shifts, respectively, in poly(A) site utilization. In yeast, depletion of either of the histone chaperones FACT or Spt6 causes an upstream shift of poly(A) site use that strongly resembles the poly(A) profiles of slow Pol II mutant strains. Like slow Pol II mutant strains, Spt6- and FACT-depleted cells exhibit processivity defects, indicating that both Spt6 and FACT stimulate the Pol II elongation rate. Poly(A) profiles of some genes show atypical downstream shifts; this subset of genes overlaps well for FACT- or Spt6- depleted strains, but it is different from the atypical genes in Pol II speed mutant strains. In contrast, depletion of histone H3 or H4 causes a downstream shift of poly(A) sites for most genes, indicating that nucleosomes inhibit the Pol II elongation rate in vivo. Thus, chromatin-based control of the Pol II elongation rate is a potential mechanism, distinct from direct effects on the cleavage/polyadenylation machinery, to regulate alternative polyadenylation in response to genetic or environmental changes.

Elongation rate of RNA polymerase II affects pausing patterns across the 3’ UTR

Project description:Yeast mRNAs are polyadenylated at multiple sites in their 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs), and poly(A) site usage is regulated by the rate of transcriptional elongation by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Slow Pol II derivatives favor upstream poly(A) sites and fast Pol II derivatives favor downstream poly(A) sites. Transcriptional elongation and polyadenylation are linked at the nucleotide level, presumably reflecting Pol II dwell time at each residue that influences the level of polyadenylation. Here, we investigate the relationship between Pol II pause sites and poly(A) sites within 3’UTRs.

Nucleotide level linkage of transcriptional elongation and polyadenylation

Project description:Alternative polyadenylation yields many mRNA isoforms whose 3’ termini occur disproportionately in clusters within 3’ UTRs. Profiles of poly(A) site usage are regulated by the rate of transcriptional elongation by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Pol II derivatives with slow elongation rates confer an upstream-shifted poly(A) profile, whereas fast Pol II strains confer a downstream-shifted poly(A) profile. In yeast, upstream and downstream shifts within isoform clusters occur steadily at the nucleotide level. In contrast, changes from one isoform to the next are much smaller between clusters, even when the distances between them are relatively large. Pol II occupancy increases just downstream of the most speed-sensitive poly(A) sites, suggesting a linkage between reduced elongation rate and cluster formation. These observations suggest that 1) Pol II elongation speed affects the nucleotide-level dwell time allowing polyadenylation to occur, 2) poly(A) site clusters are linked to the local elongation rate and hence do not arise simply by intrinsically imprecise cleavage and polyadenylation of the RNA substrate, 3) DNA sequence elements can affect Pol II elongation and poly(A) profiles, and 4) the cleavage/polyadenylation and Pol II elongation complexes are spatially, and perhaps physically, coupled so that polyadenylation occurs rapidly upon emergence of the nascent RNA from the Pol II elongation complex.

Regulation of RNA polymerase II processivity by Spt5 is restricted to a narrow window in elongation

Project description:Spt5 is a highly conserved RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-associated pausing and elongation factor. However, its impact on global elongation and Pol II processivity in mammalian cells has not been clarified. Here, we show that depleting Spt5 in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) does not cause global elongation defects or decreased elongation rates. Instead, in the absence of Spt5, a fraction of Pol II molecules are dislodged during elongation thus decreasing the number of Pol II complexes that complete the transcription cycle. Most strikingly, this decrease is restricted to a narrow window between 15-20 kb from the promoter, a distance which coincides with the stage where accelerating Pol II attains maximum elongation speed and processivity. Consequently, long genes show a greater dependency on Spt5 for optimal elongation efficiency and overall gene expression than short genes. We propose that an important role of Spt5 in mammalian elongation is to promote the processivity of those Pol II complexes that are transitioning towards maximum elongation speed 15-20 kb from the promoter.

The PNUTS-protein phosphatase 1 complex acts as an intrinsic barrier to KSHV replication [eCLIP]

Project description:Control of RNA Polymerase II (pol II) elongation is a critical component of gene expression in mammalian cells. The PNUTS-protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) complex controls elongation rates, slowing pol II after polyadenylation sites to promote termination. The Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) co-opts pol II to express its genes, but little is known about its regulation of pol II elongation. We identified PNUTS as a suppressor of a KSHV reporter gene in a genome-wide CRISPR screen. PNUTS depletion also enhances global KSHV gene expression and overall viral replication. Reflecting its host gene activities, PNUTS binds viral RNAs downstream of polyadenylation sites, restricts transcription readthrough of viral genes, and requires PP1 interaction. Surprisingly, PNUTS represses the KSHV reporter by decreasing productive elongation at the 5´-end of the gene. From these data, we conclude that PNUTS' activity forms an intrinsic barrier to KSHV replication likely by suppressing pol II elongation at promoter-proximal regions.

CDK13 cooperates with CDK12 to control global RNA polymerase II processivity

Project description:The RNA polymerase II (POLII) driven transcription cycle is tightly regulated at distinct checkpoints through cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) and their cognate Cyclins. The molecular events underpinning transcriptional elongation and processivity and CDK-Cyclins involved remain poorly understood. Using CRISPR-CAS9 homology-directed-repair we generated analog-sensitive-kinase variants of CDK12 and CDK13 to probe their individual and shared biological and molecular roles. Single inhibition of CDK12 or CDK13 induced transcriptional responses associated with DNA-damage and cellular growth signaling pathways respectively, with minimal effects on cell viability. In contrast, dual-kinase inhibition potently induced cell death, which was associated with extensive genome-wide transcriptional changes including wide-spread use of alternative 3’ polyadenylation sites. At the molecular level dual-kinase inhibition resulted in the loss of POLII CTD phosphorylation and greatly reduced POLII elongation rates and processivity. These data define significant redundancy between CDK12 and CDK13, and identify both as fundamental regulators of global POLII processivity and transcription elongation.

Knockdown of CFIm25 or CFIm68 decreases RNA polymerase II pausing and transcription

Project description:Transcription of eukaryotic protein-coding genes by RNA polymerase II (pol II) is highly regulated at initiation, elongation and termination and these steps are coordinated with co-transcriptional processing of the emerging pre-mRNA by capping, splicing, and cleavage and polyadenylation. Polyadenylation (Poly(A)) site recognition, which defines the end of the mRNA, relies on the cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) complex. It was previously observed that knocking-down proteins of the CPA complex affects not only recognition of the poly(A) site but also results in increased pausing of pol II at the beginning of genes. This finding suggests that the CPA complex plays a role in regulating pol II turnover after transcription initiation. To explore this possibility, we knocked-down two subunits of the cleavage factor I (CFIm), CFIm25 and CFIm68, which are part of the CPA complex and involved in alternative polyadenylation, and performed pol II ChIP-seq. Surprisingly, we found that contrary to the effect of knocking down of other CPA factors, reduction of the level of CFIm25 or CFIm68 decreases pol II pausing and transcription genome-wide in HEK293 cells. These findings indicate that different subunits of the CPA complex have opposite effects on pol II pausing at the start of genes.
