The negative elongation factor NELF promotes active transcription of Drosophila ecdysone-dependent genes


ABSTRACT: The current work describes molecular mechanism used by the Negative elongation complex (NELF) to control the Pol II pause at genes whose transcription is induced by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). According to our data NELF complex is recruited to the promoters and enhancers of 20E-dependent genes. Its presence at the regulatory sites of 20E-dependent genes correlates with the described interaction of its NELF-A subunit with EcR receptor. The NELF complex, consisting of at least three subunits, is formed at the 20E-dependent promoters and participates in their active transcription and maintenance of their repressed state. NELF depletion causes a significant decrease in transcription induced by 20E. We associate this effect with the disruption of Pol II elongation complexes formation. A considerable reduction in the promoter-bound level of Spt5 subunit of DSIF was observed at the 20E-dependent genes upon NELF depletion. We presume that participation in stabilization of the Pol II-DSIF complex can be an important function of NELF with a big impact on transcription of its target genes. Part of our study was to directly link NELF to regulation of 20E-dependent genes in development. We showed presence of NELF at the promoters of 20E-dependent genes during their active transcription both in embryogenesis and metamorphosis. We also demonstrate that 20E-dependent promoters remain in a Pol II paused state at the larva stage, where they are temporarily repressed.
