SPT5 stabilizes promoter-proximal RNA polymerase II prior to release into gene bodies


ABSTRACT: The regulation of gene expression by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is a multistep process requiring the concerted action of diverse transcription factors. Very little is known about in vivo function of transcription factor SPT5 as its deletion results in loss of viability. To circumvent this issue and define in vivo mechanism of action for SPT5, we employed acute degradation of SPT5 and studied its consequence on transcription. We find that SPT5 loss triggers degradation of the core Pol II subunit RPB1, a process which we show to be evolutionarily conserved from yeast to human. This RPB1 degradation requires the E3 ubiquitin ligase Cullin 3, the unfoldase VCP/p97 and a novel form of CDK9 kinase complex. SPT5 specifically stabilizes Pol II at promoter proximal regions, permitting Pol II release from promoters to gene bodies. Our findings provide mechanistic insight into the in vivo function of SPT5 in stabilization of promoter-proximal Pol II prior to release into gene bodies for safeguarding accurate gene expression.
