Project description:Polycomb repressive complex-2 (PRC2) is a histone methyltransferase required for epigenetic silencing during development and cancer. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) recruit PRC2 to chromatin, but the general role of RNA in maintaining repressed chromatin is unknown. ChIP-seq, combined with RNA-seq, indicating that PRC2 is also associated with active genes, but most of these are not regulated by PRC2. These results were complemented by in vitro binding assays measuring the binding constant of human PRC2 to various RNAs and find comparable affinity for human lncRNAs targeted by PRC2 and irrelevant transcripts from ciliates and bacteria. PRC2 binding is size-dependent, with lower affinity for shorter RNAs. These findings support a model in which promiscuous binding of PRC2 to RNA transcripts allows it to scan for target genes that have escaped repression, leading to maintenance of the repressed state. Such RNAs may also provide a decoy for PRC2. Cell culture: HEK293T/17 cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% FBS for no longer than 15 passages. ON-TARGETplus SMARTpool for human SUZ12 (Thermo Scientific, Dharmacon cat # L-006957-00-0005) was used to knockdown SUZ12 (siSUZ12) and ON-TARGETplus Non-targeting Pool (Dharmacon cat # D-001810-10-05) was used as a negative control (siCtrl). A total of 25 nM siRNA was transfected in 6-well dishes using LipofectamineM-bM-^DM-" RNAiMAX Reagent (Life Technologies, Invitrogen) following the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys recommendations. RNA-seq: Polyadenylated RNA was purified from 4 ug of RNA. cDNA libraries were prepared and double-stranded cDNA was fragmented using DNase I according to Illumina specifications, prior to adaptor ligation. Sequencing libraries were amplified and sequenced using an Illumina HiSeq 2000 sequencer. ChIP-seq: 30 million cells at 80% to 90% confluent culture were crosslinked in 1% v/v formaldehyde for 10 min, quenched in 150 mM glycine, washed with cold 1xPBS and harvested by scraping. Cells were lysed in Lysis Buffer (1% w/v SDS, 10 mM EDTA, 50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.1) with 1x CompleteM-BM-. protease inhibitors (Roche). Cells were sonicated for 10 to 15 min using a BioruptorM-bM-^DM-" UCD-200 (Diagenode) with 30 sec pulses at maximum power. Lysates were diluted to 10 ml in IP Buffer (0.01% w/v SDS, 1.1% v/v Triton-X, 1.2 mM EDTA, 16.7 mM Tris-HCL pH 8.0, 167 mM NaCl) and 10 to 20 ng of antibodies were added and incubated overnight at 4 M-bM-^AM-0C with rotation. Antibodies were immunoprecipitated with 60 M-BM-5l protein G Plus/protein A Agarose Suspension (Calbiochem cat # IP05) and washed sequentially with 1 ml Low Salt Wash Buffer (0.1% w/v SDS, 1% v/v Triton X-100, 2 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 150 mM NaCl), 1 ml High Salt Wash Buffer (0.1% w/v SDS, 1% v/v Triton X-100, 2 mM EDTA, 20 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0, 500 mM NaCl), 1 ml LiCl Wash Buffer (0.25 M LiCl, 1% v/v Nonidet P-40, 1% w/v deoxycholate, 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0) and 1 ml TE buffer (Qiagen). DNA was eluted with 0.4 ml of 0.1 M NaHCO3 and 1% w/v SDS. Eluent was transferred into a new tube and NaCl was added to a final concentration of 200 mM. Crosslinks were reversed by incubation at 65 M-bM-^AM-0C for 2 hours. Next, proteins and RNA were digested by adding 33 M-BM-5l of Digestion Reagent (0.6 M Tris-HCl pH 6.5, 152 mM EDTA, 61 ng/ml RNase A (Invitrogen cat # AM2274) and 0.61 mg/ml Proteinase K (NEB cat # P8102)) following by 1 hour incubation at 37 M-bM-^AM-0C. DNA was extracted by phenol:chloroform and ethanol precipitated. DNA was resuspended in Milli-Q pure water and concentration was measured using QubitM-bM-^DM-" (Invitrogen). At least 10 ng of recovered DNA was used to synthesize sequencing libraries using the ChIP-seq Sample Preparation kit (Illumina). Between 6 and 10 pmoles were used for sequencing on the HiSeq2000 sequencer.

Project description:Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) modifies chromatin to maintain genes in a repressed state during development. PRC2 is primarily associated with CpG islands at repressed genes and also possesses RNA binding activity. However, the RNAs that bind PRC2 in cells, the subunits that mediate these interactions, and the role of RNA in PRC2 recruitment to chromatin all remain unclear. By performing iCLIP for PRC2 in comparison with other RNA binding proteins, we show here that PRC2 binds nascent RNA at essentially all active genes. Although interacting with RNA promiscuously, PRC2 binding is enriched at specific locations within RNAs, primarily exon-intron boundaries and the 3’UTR. Deletion of other PRC2 subunits reveals that SUZ12 is sufficient to establish this RNA binding profile. Contrary to prevailing models, we also demonstrate that the interaction of PRC2 with RNA or chromatin is mutually antagonistic in cells and in vitro. RNA degradation in cells triggers PRC2 recruitment to CpG islands at active genes. Correspondingly, release of PRC2 from chromatin in cells increases RNA binding. Consistent with this, RNA and nucleosomes compete for PRC2 binding in vitro. We propose that RNA prevents PRC2 recruitment to chromatin at active genes and that mutual antagonism between RNA and chromatin underlies the pattern of PRC2 chromatin association across the genome.

Project description:Myc is a well known transcription factor with important roles in cell cycle, apoptosis and cellular transformation. Long non-coding (lnc)RNAs have recently emerged as a important class of regulatory RNAs. Here, we show that lncRNAs are an extensive component of the Myc-regulated transcriptional program. Using the P493-6 inducible Myc model we demonstrate that both Myc-induced mRNAs and lncRNAs were significant enriched for Myc binding sites. In contrast to Myc-repressed mRNAs, Myc-repressed lncRNAs were significantly enriched for Myc binding sites. Subcellular localization analysis revealed that Myc-repressed lncRNAs and mRNAs are enriched in the nucleus while Myc-induced lncRNAs and mRNAs are enriched both in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Parallel analysis of differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs identified 105 lncRNA-mRNA pairs that were in close vicinity, indicative for regulation in cis. To support the potential relevance of the Myc-regulated lncRNAs in cellular transformation, we analyzed their expression in primary Myc-high and Myc-low B-cell lymphomas. In total, 54% of the lncRNAs differentially expressed between the lymphoma subsets were identified as Myc-regulated in P493-6 cells. This study is the first to show that lncRNAs are an important factor within the Myc-regulated transcriptional program and indicates a marked difference between Myc-repressed lncRNAs and mRNAs. Expression of all known mRNAs and >10 000 lncRNAs was assessed in primary lymphoma tissue with high c-myc levels (Burkitt lymphoma; BL) and low c-myc levels (chronic lymphocytic leukemia; CLL)

Project description:<p>Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are emerging as key molecules in human cancer, with the potential to serve as novel markers of disease and to reveal uncharacterized aspects of tumor biology. Here we discover 121 unannotated prostate cancer-associated ncRNA transcripts (PCATs) by <i>ab initio</i> assembly of high-throughput sequencing of polyA+ RNA (RNA-Seq) from a cohort of 102 prostate tissues and cells lines. We characterized one ncRNA, PCAT-1, as a prostate-specific regulator of cell proliferation and show that it is a target of the polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2). We further found that patterns of PCAT-1 and PRC2 expression stratified patient tissues into molecular subtypes distinguished by expression signatures of PCAT-1-repressed target genes. Taken together, our findings suggest that PCAT-1 is a transcriptional repressor implicated in a subset of prostate cancer patients. These findings establish the utility of RNA-Seq to identify disease-associated ncRNAs that may improve the stratification of cancer subtypes.</p>

Project description:Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2) maintains transcriptionally silent genes in a repressed state via deposition of histone H3 K27 trimethyl (me3) marks. PRC2 has also been implicated in silencing transposable elements (TEs) yet how PRC2 is targeted to TEs remains unclear. To address this question, we performed tandem affinity purification combined with mass spectrometry and identified proteins that physically interact with the Paramecium Enhancer-of-zeste Ezl1 enzyme, which catalyzes H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 deposition at TEs. We show that the Paramecium PRC2 core complex comprises four subunits, each required in vivo for catalytic activity. We also identify PRC2 cofactors, including the RNA interference (RNAi) effector Ptiwi09, which are necessary to target H3K9me3 and H3K27me3 to TEs. We find that the physical interaction between PRC2 and the RNAi pathway is mediated by a RING finger protein and that small RNA recruitment of PRC2 to TEs is analogous to the small RNA recruitment of H3K9 methylation SU(VAR)3-9 enzymes.
