TDRD3 promotes DHX9 chromatin recruitment and R-loop resolution

ABSTRACT: R-loops, which consist of a DNA/RNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), are increasingly recognized as critical regulators of chromatin biology. R-loops are particularly enriched at gene promoters, where they play important roles in regulating gene expression. However, the molecular mechanisms that control promoter-associated R-loops remain unclear. The epigenetic “reader” Tudor domain-containing protein 3 (TDRD3), which recognizes methylarginine marks on histones and on the C-terminal domain of RNA polymerase II, was previously shown to recruit DNA topoisomerase 3B (TOP3B) to relax negatively supercoiled DNA and prevent R-loop formation. Here, we further characterize the function of TDRD3 in R-loop metabolism and introduce the DExH-box helicase 9 (DHX9) as a novel interaction partner of the TDRD3/TOP3B complex. TDRD3 directly interacts with DHX9 via its Tudor domain. This interaction is important for recruiting DHX9 to target gene promoters, where it resolves R-loops in a helicase activity-dependent manner to facilitate gene expression. Additionally, TDRD3 also stimulates the helicase activity of DHX9. This stimulation relies on the OB-fold of TDRD3, which likely binds the ssDNA in the R-loop structure. Thus, DHX9 functions together with TOP3B to suppress promoter-associated R-loops. Collectively, these findings reveal new functions of TDRD3 and provide important mechanistic insights into the regulation of R-loop metabolism.

TDRD3 is an effector molecule for arginine methylated histone marks

Project description:Specific sites of histone tail methylation are associated with transcriptional activity at gene loci. These methyl-marks are interpreted by effector molecules, which harbor protein domains that bind the methylated motifs and facilitate either active or inactive states of transcription. CARM1 and PRMT1 are transcriptional coactivators that deposit H3R17me2a and H4R3me2a marks, respectively. We used a protein domain microarray approach to identify the tudor domain-containing protein TDRD3 as a “reader” of these marks. Importantly, TDRD3 itself is a transcriptional coactivator. This coactivator activity requires an intact tudor domain. TDRD3 is recruited to an estrogen responsive element in a CARM1-dependent manner. Furthermore, ChIP-seq analysis of TDRD3 reveals that it is predominantly localized to transcriptional start site. Thus, TDRD3 is an effector molecule that promotes transcription by binding methylarginine marks on histone tails. ChIP seq analysis of TDRD3 in MCF7 cells

A dual-activity topoisomerase complex regulates mRNA translation and turnover

Project description:Topoisomerase 3β (TOP3B) and TDRD3 form a dual-activity topoisomerase complex that interacts with FMRP and can change the topology of both DNA and RNA. Here, we investigated the post-transcriptional influence of TOP3B and associated proteins on mRNA translation and turnover. First, we discovered that in human HCT116 colon cancer cells, knock-out (KO) of TOP3B had similar effects on mRNA turnover and translation as did TDRD3-KO, while FMRP-KO resulted in rather distinct effects, indicating that TOP3B had stronger coordination with TDRD3 than FMRP in mRNA regulation. Second, we identified TOP3B-bound mRNAs in HCT116 cells; we found that while TOP3B did not directly influence the stability or translation of most TOP3B target mRNAs, it stabilized a subset of target mRNAs but had a more complex effect on translation--enhancing for some mRNAs whereas reducing for others. Interestingly, a point mutation that specifically disrupted TOP3B catalytic activity only partially recapitulated the effects of TOP3B-KO on mRNA stability and translation, suggesting that the impact of TOP3B on target mRNAs is only in part linked to its ability to change topology of mRNAs. Collectively, our data suggest that TOP3B-TDRD3 can regulate mRNA translation and turnover by mechanisms that are dependent and independent of topoisomerase activity.

A dual-activity topoisomerase complex promotes both transcriptional activation and repression in response to starvation

Project description:Topoisomerases are required to release topological stress generated by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) during transcription. Here we show that in response to starvation, the complex of topoisomerase 3b (TOP3B) and TDRD3 can promote transcriptional activation or repression. Human HCT116 cells individually inactivated for TOP3B, TDRD3, or TOP3B topoisomerase activity, exhibit similarly disrupted transcription for both starvation-activated genes (SAGs) and starvation-repressed genes (SRGs). Responding to starvation, both TOP3B-TDRD3 and the elongating form of RNAPII exhibit concomitantly increased binding to TOP3B-dependent SAGs, at binding sites that overlap. Strikingly, TOP3B inactivation decreases the binding of elongating RNAPII to TOP3B-dependent SAGs while increased it to SRGs. Furthermore, TOP3B-ablated cells display reduced transcription of several autophagy-associated genes and autophagy per se. Our data suggest that TOP3B-TDRD3 can promote both transcriptional activation and repression by regulating RNAPII distribution. In addition, the findings that it can facilitate autophagy may account for the shortened lifespan of Top3b-KO mice.

RNA-seq analysis of wild-type HEK293, HEK293 treated with DMSO, ML216 or NSC617145, wild-type mESCs and dhx9KO mESCs

Project description:G4s are built by stacked guanine tetrads connected via Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds and can be formed by intra- or inter-molecular folding of the tetramers. R-loops are three-stranded structures which contain a DNA-RNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA. Both G4s and R-loops are involved in key biological processes, including transcriptional regulation, replication, genomic instability, class switch recombination in B cells, DNA damage and repair, and telomere maintenance. To understand the transcriptional regulation of G4s and R-loops, we performed the RNA-seq analysis on HEK293 cells treated with the inhibitors of G4 resolving helicase ML216 or NSC617145 and mESCs in which the resolving helicase DHX9 of G4 and R-loop was knockout.

AKT1 interacts with DHX9 to mitigate R-loop-induced replication stress in ovarian cancer

Project description:PARP inhibitor (PARPi)-resistant BRCA mutant (BRCAm) high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) represents a new clinical challenge with unmet therapeutic needs. Quantitative high-throughput drug combination screen identifies that ATR inhibitor (ATRi) and AKT inhibitor (AKTi) combination is a rational treatment strategy for both PARPi-sensitive and PARPi-resistant BRCAm HGSOC by inducing DNA damage and R-loop-mediated replication stress (RS). Mechanistically, the kinase domain of AKT1 directly interacts with DHX9, thus facilitating recruitment of DHX9 to R-loops. AKTi increases ATRi-induced R-loop-mediated RS by mitigating recruitment of DHX9 to R-loops. Moreover, DHX9 is upregulated in tumors from PARPi-resistant BRCAm HGSOC patients and high co-expression of DHX9 and AKT1 correlates with worse survival. Our study reveals a previously unknown interaction between AKT1 and DHX9 in R-loop resolution and novel mechanisms of action of AKTi and ATRi combination. Our data also provide a rationale for the clinical development of ATRi and AKTi combination for BRCAm HGSOC irrespective of PARPi resistance status and a potential biomarker to predict the response of combination therapy.

DDX17 helicase promotes resolution of R-loop-mediated transcription-replication conflicts in human cells

Project description:R-loops are three-stranded nucleic acid structures composed of an RNA:DNA hybrid and displaced DNA strand. These structures can halt DNA replication when formed co- transcriptionally in the opposite orientation to replication fork progression. Recent studies have shown that replication forks stalled by co-transcription R-loops can be restarted by a mechanism involving fork cleavage by MUS81 endonuclease, followed by reactivation of transcription, and fork religation by the DNA ligase IV (LIG4)/XRCC4 complex. However, how R-loops are eliminated to allow the sequential restart of transcription and replication in this pathway remains elusive. Here, we identified the human DDX17 helicase as a factor that associates with R-loops and counteracts R-loop-mediated replication stress to preserve genome stability. We show that DDX17 unwinds RNA:DNA hybrids in vitro and promotes MUS81-dependent restart of R-loop-stalled forks in human cells in a manner dependent on its helicase activity. Loss of DDX17 helicase induces accumulation of R-loops and the formation of R-loop-dependent anaphase bridges and micronuclei. These findings establish DDX17 as a component of the MUS81-LIG4 pathway for resolution of R-loop-mediated transcription- replication conflicts, which may be involved in R-loop unwinding.

ATAD5 regulates R-loop by maintaining RNA helicase level and unloading PCNA at the replication fork

Project description:R-loops are formed when replicative forks collide with the transcriptional machinery and can cause genomic instability. However, it is unclear how R-loops are regulated at transcription-replication conflicts (TRC) sites and how replisome proteins are regulated to prevent R-loop formation or mediate R-loop tolerance. Here, we report that ATAD5, a PCNA unloader, plays dual functions to reduce R-loops both under normal and replication stress conditions. ATAD5 interacts with RNA helicases such as DDX1, DDX5, DDX21 and DHX9 and increases the abundance of these helicases at replication forks to facilitate R-loop resolution. Depletion of ATAD5 or RNA helicases consistently increases R-loops during the S phase and reduces the replication rate, both of which are enhanced by replication stress. In addition to R-loop resolution, ATAD5 prevents the generation of new R-loops behind the replication forks by unloading PCNA which, otherwise, accumulates and persists on DNA, causing a collision with the transcription machinery. Depletion of ATAD5 reduces transcription rates due to PCNA accumulation. Consistent with the role of ATAD5 and RNA helicases in maintaining genomic integrity by regulating R-loops, the corresponding genes were mutated or downregulated in several human tumors.

Tumor Cell Survival Dependence on the DExH-Box Helicase DHX9

Project description:The ATP-dependent DExH/D-box helicase DHX9 is a key participant in a number of gene regulatory steps, including transcriptional, translational, microRNA-mediated control, DNA replication, and maintenance of genomic stability. DHX9 has also been implicated in maintenance of the tumorigenic process and in drug response. Here, we report that inhibition of DHX9 expression is lethal to multiple human and mouse cancer cell lines. In contrast, using a novel conditional shDHX9 mouse model, we demonstrate that sustained and prolonged suppression of DHX9 is well tolerated at the organismal level. Our results demonstrate a robust tolerance for DHX9 knockdown in non-transformed cells and supports the targeting of DHX9 as an effective and specific chemotherapeutic approach. Comparison of gene expression in large intestine of mice with or without reduced expression of DHX9.
