RNA-Seq of young and senescent cells with empty vector, TRF2 overexpression or LMNB1 downregulation

ABSTRACT: Telomeres, the nucleoprotein structures located at the end of eukaryotic DNA, protect chromosomal integrity. These structures undergo changes during development and aging, including length shortening and alterations in the levels of the proteins associated to them called shelterin, all this affecting genome stability as the cells age. However, telomeres also behave as transcriptional regulators acting not only on genes present at subtelomeres but also on more distantly located genes presented throughout the genome. This process is referred as Telomere Position Effect (TPE). Here we set to determine whether telomere shortening in senescent cells impact TPE and senescent cells transcriptome. We also investigate whether TRF2 (a shelterin protein) and Lamin B1 (a member of nuclear lamina) are involved in TPE by doing RNA sequencing of young and senescent cells in which we modulated TRF2 and Lamin B1 expression.

RNA-Seq in senescent cells with restored levels of TRF2

Project description:Cellular senescence is accompanied by profound changes in telomere and heterochromatin structure that contribute to ageing. Telomere shortening is a key driver of replicative senescence that activate DNA damage response signaling ending on a p53-dependent downregulation of the shelterin subunit TRF2. Restoring the levels of TRF2 in pre-senescent cells leads to delay entry into senescent and restoration of constitutive heterochromatin structure and damage. Here we set to determine whether the restoration of TRF2 levels change the senescent program by doing RNA-sequencing of senescent cells transduced with a TRF2-expressing lentivirus or an empty lentivirus control.

ZNF524 directly binds telomeres and supports their integrity via TRF2/RAP1

Project description:Telomeres are nucleoprotein structures at the ends of linear chromosomes. In humans, they consist of TTAGGG repeats, which are bound by dedicated proteins such as the shelterin complex. This complex consists of six proteins (TRF1, TRF2, RAP1, POT1, TPP1 and TIN2) and blocks unwanted DNA damage repair at telomeres, e.g. by suppressing non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) through its subunit TRF2. While shelterin does not work autonomously, additional direct telomere binding proteins have been described to function in a supplementary role. We here describe ZNF524, a zinc finger protein that directly binds to telomeric repeats with nanomolar affinity and reveal the base-specific sequence recognition by co-crystallization with telomeric DNA. ZNF524 localizes to telomeres and specifically maintains the presence of the TRF2/RAP1 subcomplex at telomeres without affecting the other shelterin members. Loss of ZNF524 concomitantly results in an increase in DNA damage signaling and recombination events. Overall, we identified ZNF524 as a direct telomere binding protein and propose that ZNF524 is involved in the maintenance of telomere integrity by promoting TRF2/RAP1 subcomplex binding.

A cell cycle switch in TRF2 controls t-loop dynamics and DNA secondary structure resolution across the genome

Project description:Telomere end-protection by the shelterin complex prevents DNA damage signalling and promiscuous repair at chromosome ends. Evidence suggests that the 3’ single-stranded telomere end can assemble into a lasso-like t-loop configuration, which has been proposed to safeguard chromosome ends from being recognized as DNA double strand breaks. Mechanisms must also exist to transiently disassemble t-loops to allow faithful telomere replication and to permit telomerase access to the 3’-end to solve the end replication problem. However, the regulation and physiological importance of t-loops in end-protection remains uncertain. Here, we identify a CDK phosphorylation site in the shelterin subunit, TRF2 (Ser365), whose dephosphorylation in S-phase by the PP6C/R3 phosphatase provides a narrow window during which the helicase RTEL1 is able to transiently access and unwind t-loops to facilitate telomere replication. Re-phosphorylation of TRF2 on Ser365 outside of S-phase is required to release RTEL1 from telomeres, which not only protects t-loops from promiscuous unwinding and inappropriate ATM activation, but also counteracts replication conflicts at DNA secondary structures arising within telomeres and across the genome. Hence, a phospho-switch in TRF2 coordinates assembly and disassembly of t-loops during the cell cycle, which protects telomeres from replication stress and an unscheduled DNA damage response.

Molecular basis of TPE-OLD [methylation]

Project description:Among epigenetic modifiers, telomeres, represent attractive modulators of the genome in part through position effects. Telomere Position Effect – Over Long Distances (TPE-OLD) modulates genes expression by changes in telomeric-dependent long-distance loops, with a reach of 10Mb from the telomeres. However, TPE-OLD remain poorly defined. We used cells with controlled telomere length combined to a genome wide approach revealing its transcriptome and methylome. We identified a common cis element that behaved as an insulator/ enhancer. By using reporter assays integrating this element, we disclosed additional trans partners further validated by in silico data. Exploiting our cellular model we observed the depletion of one candidate (RBPJ) at TPE-OLD associated loci concomitant to telomere shortening. Therefore, we conclude that TPE-OLD is orchestrated by Alu-like elements acting as enhancers in association with RBPJ. We propose that TPE-OLD functions by the coordinated action of newly evolved enhancers; an associated protein RBPJ and telomere length to produce an adapted response to external stimuli (i.e., Aging)

Pt-ttpy, a G-quadruplex binding platinum complex, induces telomere dysfunction and G-rich regions DNA damage

Project description:Pt-ttpy (tolyl terpyridin-Pt complex) covalently binds to G-quadruplex (G4) structures in vitro and to telomeres in cellulo via its Pt moiety. Here, we identified its targets in the human genome, in comparison to Pt-tpy, its derivative without G4 affinity, and cisplatin. Pt-ttpy, but not Pt-tpy, induces the release of the shelterin protein TRF2 from telomeres concomitantly to the formation of DNA damage foci at telomeres but also at other chromosomal locations. -H2AX chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP-seq) after treatment with Pt-ttpy or cisplatin revealed accumulation in G- and A-rich tandemly repeated sequences, but not particularly in potential G4 forming sequences. Collectively, Pt-ttpy presents dual targeting efficiency on DNA, by inducing telomere dysfunction and genomic DNA damage at specific loci.

A genetic interaction between RAP1 and telomerase reveals an unanticipated role for RAP1 in telomere protection

Project description:RAP1 is one of the components of mammalian shelterin, the capping complex at chromosome ends or telomeres, although its role in telomere protection has remained elusive. RAP1 binds along chromosome arms, where it regulates gene expression and has been shown to function in metabolism control. Telomerase is the enzyme that elongates telomeres and its deficiency causes a premature aging in mice. We describe an unanticipated genetic interaction between RAP1 and telomerase. While RAP1 deficiency alone does not impact in mouse survival, mice lacking both RAP1 and telomerase show a progressive decreased survival with increasing mouse generation as compared to telomerase single mutants. Telomere shortening was more pronounced in Rap1-/- Terc-/- than in Terc-/- counterparts, leading to an earlier onset of DNA damage and its consequent DNA damage response as well as accelerated degenerative pathologies in the intestines. In its turn, telomerase deficiency abolishes RAP1-mediated obesity and liver pathologies. Mouse embryonic fibroblasts with shorten telomeres present less amount of telomere-bound RAP1 but in contrast show higher numbers of RAP1 bound extratelomeric sites genomewide. Absence of RAP1 leads to deregulation of several metabolic pathways, and these changes were more pronounce in cells with short telomeres suggesting that RAP1 release from telomere foci could constitute a coordinated genomic response to telomere shortening. Our findings also demonstrate that although RAP1 is not a key factor in telomere capping under normal conditios, under stress situation such as critical telomere shortening RAP1 exerts an important function for telomere protection and justify its evolutionary conservation as a shelterin component in mammalian cells.
