TFIIIC and MYCN link the three-dimensional chromatin structure of promoters to transcription termination of stalled RNA polymerase (ChIPseq CnR)

ABSTRACT: MYC proteins bind to virtually all active promoters transcribed by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), but whether they interact with the three-dimensional chromatin architecture is unknown. Here we used HiChIP sequencing of the MYCN oncoprotein and found that MYCN localizes to three-dimensional hubs formed by active promoters and enhancers. In these hubs, MYCN interacts with TFIIIC, an architectural protein complex. MYCN recruits TFIIIC to promoters when transcription elongation is inhibited, and the complex of both proteins induces premature transcription termination. Termination correlates closely with the TFIIIC-dependent removal of MYCN from promoter hubs and with corresponding alterations in the three-dimensional interactions of cohesin complexes. This limits DNA damage by removing RNAPII that stalls proximal to double-strand breaks. Binding of TFIIIC to MYCN is limited by competition with Aurora-A and this protects genes involved in mRNA processing from termination, arguing that MYCN contributes to the unusual proliferative capacity of neuroblastoma cells via removing stalled RNAPII from promoter hubs and via increasing the capacity for RNA processing.

Association with Aurora-A controls N-MYC-dependent promoter escape and pause release of RNA polymerase II during the cell cycle

Project description:MYC proteins bind globally to active promoters and promote transcriptional elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). To identify effector proteins that mediate this function, we performed mass spectrometry on N-MYC complexes in neuroblastoma cells. The analysis shows that N-MYC forms complexes with TFIIIC, TOP2A and RAD21, a subunit of cohesin. N-MYC and TFIIIC bind to overlapping sites in thousands of RNAPII promoters and intergenic regions. TFIIIC promotes association of RAD21 with N-MYC target sites and is required for N-MYC-dependent promoter escape and pause release of RNAPII. Aurora-A competes with binding of TFIIIC and RAD21 to N-MYC in vitro and antagonizes association of TOP2A, TFIIIC and RAD21 with N-MYC during S-phase, blocking N-MYC-dependent release of RNAPII from the promoter. Inhibition of Aurora-A in S-phase restores RAD21 and TFIIIC binding to chromatin and partially restores N-MYC-dependent transcriptional elongation. We propose that complex formation with Aurora-A controls N-MYC function during the cell cycle.

The MYCN oncoprotein resolves conflicts of stalling RNA Polymerase with the replication fork [DP_EXOSC10_ChIP_4sUseq]

Project description:During the S-phase, conflicts of replication forks with RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) threaten genomic stability. While the PAF complex can resolve such conflicts during elongation, the particularly deleterious conflicts with stalling RNAPII are resolved by an as of yet unknown mechanism. Here we show that the MYCN oncoprotein forms a ternary complex with RNAPII and the nuclear RNA exosome, a 3’‑5’ exoribonuclease complex. Together with TFIIS, this complex restarts promoter‑proximal RNAPII, allows escape from co-directional transcription-replication conflicts and prevents double‑strand break accumulation. In cells lacking RNA exosome function, MYCN globally terminates transcription. MYCN-mediated termination is triggered by ATM‑dependent recruitment of BRCA1, which then stabilizes nuclear mRNA decapping complexes. Disruption of mRNA decapping activates ATR, indicative of head-on transcription-replication conflicts, and inhibits DNA replication. We propose that MYCN resolves transcription-replication conflicts via this two-step mechanism to sustain the rapid proliferation of neuroendocrine tumor cells.

Targeting transcription-replication conflicts is an effective therapeutic principle for MYCN-driven neuroblastoma [4SU-seq]

Project description:Targeting the function of MYC proteins for therapy is a major challenge in tumor biology. MYC proteins are transcription factors that can globally release RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) from core promoters. In neuroblastoma, the MYC paralogue, MYCN, and the Aurora-A kinase form a complex during S phase that stabilizes MYCN and enhances Aurora-A kinase activity. Here we show that Aurora-A phosphorylates histone H3 at serine 10 in S phase and suppresses transcription-dependent R-loop formation. Inhibition of Aurora-A causes global stalling of RNAPII at pause sites and exon/intron boundaries and induces transcription/replication conflicts, activating the Ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3 related (ATR) kinase. Activation of ATR is required to prevent the accumulation of double-strand breaks. In genetically-engineered mice with MYCN-driven neuroblastoma, combined inhibition of Aurora-A and ATR induces rampant tumor-specific apoptosis and tumor regression, leading to permanent eradication of tumors in a subset of mice. The therapeutic efficacy is not only due to tumor cell-intrinsic mechanisms, but also engages the host immune system for tumor eradication. Since stabilization of MYCN promotes promoter-proximal transcription termination, we propose that MYCN/Aurora-A complex formation enables tumor cells to prevent transcription-replication conflicts and that targeting this mechanism is an effective therapy for MYCN-driven neuroblastoma.
