Project description:The recognition of polyadenylation signals (PAS) in eukaryotic pre-mRNAs is usually coupled to transcription termination, occurring while pre-mRNA is chromatin-bound. However, for some pre-mRNAs, this 3'-end processing occurs post-transcriptionally, i.e., through a co-transcriptional cleavage (CoTC) event downstream of the PAS, leading to chromatin release and subsequent PAS cleavage in the nucleoplasm. While DNA-damaging agents trigger the shutdown of co-transcriptional chromatin-associated 3'-end processing, specific compensatory mechanisms exist to ensure efficient 3'-end processing for certain pre-mRNAs, including those that encode proteins involved in the DNA damage response, such as the tumor suppressor p53. We show that cleavage at the p53 polyadenylation site occurs in part post-transcriptionally following a co-transcriptional cleavage event. Cells with an engineered deletion of the p53 CoTC site exhibit impaired p53 3'-end processing, decreased mRNA and protein levels of p53 and its transcriptional target p21, and altered cell cycle progression upon UV-induced DNA damage. Using a transcriptome-wide analysis of PAS cleavage, we identify additional pre-mRNAs whose PAS cleavage is maintained in response to UV irradiation and occurring post-transcriptionally. These findings indicate that CoTC-type cleavage of pre-mRNAs, followed by PAS cleavage in the nucleoplasm, allows certain pre-mRNAs to escape 3'-end processing inhibition in response to UV-induced DNA damage.

Project description:We conduct herein a systematic study of mRNA recognition and consequent polyadenylation processing of the Arabidopsis mRNA by m6A reader protein CPSF70. Transcriptome-wide characterization of CPSF70-binding sites supporting the recognition m6A-methylated mRNA with CPSF70, and the results of which linked polyadenylation signals recognition. We then perform 3’end sequencing with A-seq2 to identify CPSF70-dependent APA process, showing that CPSF70 modulate m6A–dependent polyadenylation with FUE recognition.

Project description:In eukaryotes, U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) forms spliceosomes in equal stoichiometry with U2, U4, U5 and U6 snRNPs; however, its abundance in human far exceeds that of the other snRNPs. Here we used antisense morpholino oligonucleotide to U1 snRNA to achieve functional U1 snRNP knockdown in HeLa cells, and identified accumulated unspliced pre-mRNAs by genomic tiling microarrays. In addition to inhibiting splicing, U1 snRNP knockdown caused premature cleavage and polyadenylation in numerous pre-mRNAs at cryptic polyadenylation signals, frequently in introns near (<5?kilobases) the start of the transcript. This did not occur when splicing was inhibited with U2 snRNA antisense morpholino oligonucleotide or the U2-snRNP-inactivating drug spliceostatin A unless U1 antisense morpholino oligonucleotide was also included. We further show that U1 snRNA-pre-mRNA base pairing was required to suppress premature cleavage and polyadenylation from nearby cryptic polyadenylation signals located in introns. These findings reveal a critical splicing-independent function for U1 snRNP in protecting the transcriptome, which we propose explains its overabundance.

Project description:Purpose: Quiescence is a state of reversible cell cycle exit. Levels of polyadenylation factors decreases when proliferating cells become quiescent. The goals of this study are to determine the differential use of polyadenylation sites (changes in alternative polyadenylation) in quiescent vs. proliferating cells and also upon knockdown of polyadenylation factors. Methods: Two biological replicates of human dermal fibroblasts (12-1 and 12-3) were used for polyadeylation-site enriched RNA-seq on an Illumina HiSeq 2500 to compare quiescent vs. proliferating cells and polyadenylation factor knockdown vs. control cells. The reads were aligned to the human genome (hg19) uisng Tophat (2.0.14). The resulting bam files were used as an input to a python script provided by Gruber et al. (PMID: 27382025) to determine the counts for each polyadenylation site. Results: We observed a shift toward greater use of distal polyadenylation sites when the fibroblasts entered quiescence. We observed significant overlap between the genes that shift to greater distal site use with quiescence and CstF-64 or CPSF73 knockdown. Conclusions: The shift to greater distal site use with quiescence may reflect in part the reduced levels of cleavage and polyadenylation factors.

Project description:Genes containing multiple polyadenylation (polyA) sites express mRNA isoforms with variable 3’ untranslated regions (3’UTRs). We found that short and long 3’UTR isoforms were relatively more abundant when genes were highly and lowly expressed, respectively, in human and mouse cells. Consistently, upregulated and downregulated genes were more likely to have shortened and lengthened 3’UTRs, respectively, when genes changed expression under different cell conditions or in response to extracellular stimuli. Using nuclear run-on assays, we found that RNA polymerase II (Pol II) was more likely to pause at the polyA site of highly expressed genes than that of lowly expressed ones. Moreover, in line with the difference in polyA site usage, highly expressed genes tend to have higher H3K4me3 and H3K36me3 levels but a lower density of nucleosome around promoter-proximal polyA sites relative to distal ones. Taken together, our results indicate that the efficiency of 3’ end processing is generally coupled to transcriptional activity, leading to modulation of polyA site choice by transcription and thus connecting transcriptional control with post-transcriptional regulation via pre-mRNA processing.

Project description:The use of alternative polyadenylation sites is common and affects the post-transcriptional fate of mRNA, including its stability, localization, and translation. Here we use the internal version of our previously developed protocol (PMID: 23295673), to characterize the polyA sites in a xrn1∆ strain.

Project description:The PAF complex (Paf1C) has been shown to regulate chromatin modifications, gene transcription, and PolII elongation. Here, we provide the first genome-wide analysis of chromatin occupancy by the entire PAF complex in mammalian cells. We show that Paf1C is recruited not only to promoters and gene bodies, but also to regions downstream of cleavage/polyadenylation (pA) sites at 3â ends, a profile that sharply contrasted with the yeast complex. Remarkably, our studies identified novel, subunit-specific links between Paf1C and regulation of alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) and upstream antisense transcription. Moreover, we found that depletion of Paf1C subunits also resulted in the accumulation of RNA polymerase II (PolII) over gene bodies, which coincided with APA. Depletion of specific Paf1C subunits leads to global loss of histone H2B ubiquitylation, but surprisingly, there is little impact of Paf1C depletion on other histone modifications, including the tri-methylation of histone H3 on lysines 4 and 36 (H3K4me3 and H3K36me3), previously associated with this complex. Our results provide surprising differences with yeast, while unifying observations that link Paf1C with PolII elongation and RNA processing, and suggest that Paf1C could play a role in protecting transcripts from premature cleavage by preventing PolII accumulation at TSS-proximal pA sites.
