Determining the effect of RPA49 on RNA polymerase I occupancy in vivo

ABSTRACT: The central goal of this project was to determine the role of the RNA polymerase I (Pol I) subunits RPA34 and RPA49 in rRNA synthesis. Previous studies by various groups have demonstrated that these two subunits may play a role in transcription initiation and elongation by on Pol I occupancy in vivo, but this is still not clearly defined. Here, we deployed a high-resolution technique, native elongating transcript sequencing (NET-seq), to test the effects of RPA34 and RPA49 on Pol I occupancy in vivo. We found that when RPA34 was deleted, there was a significant reduction in Pol I occupancy across the rDNA template. Additionally, when RPA49 was deleted, Pol I occupancy was even further reduced across the template. Collectively, our findings suggest that perhaps RPA34 acts to stabilize RPA49 and these subunits may act primarily as transcription initiation factors for Pol I.

Investigating the role of Paf1 in transcription by RNA polymerase I

Project description:Polymerase-associated factor 1 complex (Paf1C) has been identified to promote transcription by Pols I and II and is conserved across eukaryotes. This transcription factor has been well-studied for Pol II, but its role in transcription by Pol I has not been fully characterized. Therefore, the goal of this study was to use a high-resolution technique, native elongating transcript sequencing (NET-seq), to investigate the effect of the loss of two of the five Paf1C subunits (Paf1 and Cdc73) on Pol I occupancy in yeast. Most notably, we found that in both paf1D and cdc73D mutants, there was a significant reduction in Pol I occupancy at the 5’ end of the rDNA template as compared to WT yeast. Overall, our results suggest that Paf1C is an important transcription elongation factor for Pol I.

Investigating the role of Hmo1 in transcription by Pol I in yeast.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of the yeast protein, high mobility group protein (Hmo1), in rRNA synthesis. For over twenty years, Hmo1 has been proposed to be an activator of transcription by Pol I, but its regulatory mechanism remains largely undefined. Therefore, we used native elongating transcript sequencing (NET-seq) to explore the role of this factor in transcription by Pol I. Our NET-seq results demonstrated that in cells lacking Hmo1 (hmo1D), Pol I occupancy was significantly increased across the rDNA template, indicating an increased pause propensity in these cells. These data suggest that Hmo1 is an important transcription elongation factor for Pol I.

BMH-21 inhibits RNA polymerase I transcription cycle and rDNA occupancy

Project description:The objective of this study was to determine the effect of a small-molecule Pol I inhibitor, BMH-21, on rRNA synthesis in vivo. NET-seq was performed to determine the Pol I occupancy after BMH-21 treatment, as compared to vehicle-treatment (phosphate buffer control). Our findings suggest that BMH-21 treatment reduces Pol I occupancy on the rDNA template. Additionally, BMH-21 induces repositioning of Pol I in AT-rich rDNA regions that are directly upstream from GC-rich regions. This study suggests that BMH-21 is a powerful inhibitor of transcription by Pol I, and gives a potential mechanism of action for this inhibitor in vivo.

Defining the influence of the A12 subunit on transcription elongation and termination by rna polymerase I

Project description:we performed Native Elongating Transcript Sequencing (NET-seq) on an rpa12Δ strain of S. cerevisiae and evaluated the resultant change in Pol I occupancy throughout the 35S gene and the IGS. Compared to WT, we observed template sequence-specific changes in Pol I occupancy throughout the 35S gene. We also observed rpa12Δ Pol I occupancy downstream of both termination sites and throughout most of the IGS, including the 5S gene. Occupancy of rpa12Δ Pol I increased just upstream of the promoter proximal Reb1 binding site and dropped significantly after, implicating this site as a third terminator for Pol I transcription.

Testing the usage of divalent metal cations and nucleases during NET-seq for Pol I

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine the effects of commonly used nuclease treatments and their divalent metal cation cofactors on Pol I occupancy during NET-seq. Other groups have previously used micrococcal nuclease (MNase) + CaCl2 and deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) + MnCl2 in NET-seq protocols probing for Pol II occupancy. However, the effect of these treatments on polymerase occupancy has not been fully explored. Therefore, we tested the impact of these treatments (CaCl2, CaCl2 + MNase, MnCl2, and MnCl2 + DNase I) on Pol I occupancy in vivo. We found that the exposure of Pol I to either CaCl2 or MnCl2 caused a significant reduction in occupancy on the rDNA template. Nuclease treatment (with either MNase or DNase I) did not cause an additional significant effect on Pol I occupancy in vivo beyond that of either CaCl2 or MnCl2. Finally, we found that MnCl2 treatment caused a more significant reduction in Pol I occupancy as compared to CaCl2, suggesting that perhaps MnCl2 stimulates the intrinsic cleavage activity of Pol I more robustly vs. CaCl2 in vivo. Altogether, these findings indicate that the inclusion of these treatments (especially that of divalent metal cations) in NET-seq protocols for Pol I cause a significant change in the polymerase occupancy.

Spt4 promotes Pol I processivity and transcription elongation

Project description:The goal of this study was to determine the effect of Spt4 on transcription by Pol I in vivo. Therefore, Native Elongating Transcript Sequencing (NET-seq) was used to evaluate the occupancy of Pol I in wild-type and spt4△ strains. We determined that in spt4△ yeast, there was a processivity defect and Pol I accumulated at the 5' end of the 35S gene. Additionally, we observed that there was an enrichment for G-rich sequences just downstream of a high A content in the spt4△ strain, indicating that perhaps Spt4 plays a role in helping to propel Pol I through these regions of the rDNA. Altogether, this study suggests that Spt4 is an important transcription factor for Pol I by promoting polymerase processivity.

Genome-wide distribution of RNA-DNA hybrids identifies RNase H targets in tRNA genes, retrotransposons and mitochondria

Project description:During transcription the nascent RNA can invade the DNA template, forming extended RNA-DNA duplexes (R-loops). Here we employ ChIP-seq in strains expressing or lacking RNase H to map targets of RNase H activity throughout budding yeast genome. In wild-type strains, R-loops were readily detected over the 35S rDNA region transcribed by Pol I and over the 5S rDNA transcribed by Pol III. In strains lacking RNase H activity, R-loops were elevated over other Pol III genes notably tRNAs, SCR1 and U6 snRNA, and were also associated with the cDNAs of endogenous TY1 retrotransposons, which showed increased rates of mobility to the 5?-flanking regions of tRNA genes. Unexpectedly, R-loops were also associated with mitochondrial genes in the absence of RNase H1, but not of RNase H2. Finally, R-loops were detected on highly expressed protein-coding genes in the wild-type, notably over the second exon of spliced ribosomal protein genes.

The Rio1 kinase downregulates RNA polymerase I to promote rDNA stability and segregation

Project description:To sustain growth, budding yeast actively transcribes its ribosomal gene array (rDNA) in the nucoleolus to produce ribosomes and proteins. However, intense transcription during rDNA replication may provoke collisions between RNA polymerase I (Pol I) and the replisome, may cause replication fork instability, double-strand breaks, local recombinations and rDNA instability. The latter is manifested by rDNA array expansion or reduction and the formation of extrachromosomal rDNA circles, anomalies that accelerate aging in yeast. Transcription also interferes with the resolution, condensation and segregation of the sister chromatid rDNA arrays. As a consequence, rDNA segregation lags behind the rest of the yeast genome and occurs in late anaphase when rDNA transcription is temporarily shut off. How yeast promotes the stability and transmission of its rDNA array while satisfying a constant need for ribosomes remains unclear. Here we show that the downregulation of Pol I by the conserved cell cycle kinase Rio1 spatiotemporally coordinates rDNA transcription, replication and segregation. More specifically, Rio1 activity promotes copy-number stability of the replicating rDNA array by curtailing Pol I activity and by localising the histone deacetylase Sir2, which establishes a heterochromatic state that silences rDNA transcription. At anaphase entry, Rio1 and the Cdc14 phosphatase target Pol I subunit Rpa43 to dissociate Pol I from the 35S rDNA promoter. The rDNA locus then condensates and segregates, thereby concluding the genome transmission process. Rio1 is involved in ribosome maturation in the cytoplasm of budding yeast and human cells. Additional engagements in the cytoplasm or roles in the nucleus are unknown. Our study describes its first nuclear engagement as a Pol I silencing kinase. This activity may prove highly relevant as dysregulated RNA polymerase I activity has been associated with cancer initiation and proliferation.

Assessing effect of CEBPA degradation on rRNA transcription machinery

Project description:We report the effect of degradation of CEBPA (a critical myeloid lineage transcription factor) on the occupancy of core rRNA transcription machinery on rDNA in mouse GMP cells. We generated a CEBPA-Degron line by tagging endogenous alleles of the Cebpa gene with the FKBPV degron domain, and degraded CEBPA-FKBPV-FLAG fusion protein using dTAGV-1 ligand. We used anti-FLAG pulldown to demonstrate binding of CEBPA protein to rDNA at a conserved motif within the 18S transcribed region. On degradation of CEBPA, we found that RPA194 (component of Pol I) and RRN3 occupancy on rDNA were reduced, while the occupancy of upstream factors TAF1B (component of SL-1) and UBTF were unchanged. In parallel, we also found that CEBPA degradation reduced nascent rRNA transcription, cellular ribosome abundance, and cell growth. Our work indicates that the cell-type-specific transcription factor CEBPA recruits the Pol I-RRN3 complex to ribosomal DNA to promote rRNA transcription.
