Heart tissue from Nelf-b CreER mice

ABSTRACT: Negative elongation factor (NELF) is known to enforce promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II (Pol II), a pervasive phenomenon observed across multicellular genomes. However, the physiological impact of NELF on tissue homeostasis remains unclear. Here we show for the first time that whole-body conditional deletion of the B subunit of NELF (NELF-B) in adult mice results in cardiomyopathy and impaired response to cardiac stress. Tissue-specific knockout of NELF-B confirms its cell-autonomous function in cardiomyocytes. NELF directly supports transcription of those genes encoding rate-limiting enzymes in fatty acid oxidation and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. NELF also shares extensively transcriptional target genes with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors alpha (PPARalpha), a master regulator of energy metabolism in myocardium. Mechanistically, NELF helps stablize the transcription initation complex at the metabolism-related genes. Our findings strongly indicate that NELF is part of the PPARalpha-mediated transcription regulatory network that maintains metabolic homeostasis in cardiomyocytes.

Translation initiation at a non-AUG start codon for mouse and human NELF-B

Project description:Negative elongation factor (NELF), a four-subunit protein complex in metazoan, plays an important role in regulating promoter-proximal pausing of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). Genetic studies demonstrate that the B subunit of mouse NELF (NELF-B) is critical for embryonic development and homeostasis in adult tissue. We report here that both human and mouse NELF-B proteins are translated from a non-AUG codon upstream of the annotated AUG. This non-AUG codon sequence is conserved in mammalian NELF-B but not NELF-B orthologs of lower metazoan. The full-length and a truncated NELF-B that starts at the first AUG codon interact with the other three NELF subunits with comparable efficiency. Furthermore, these two forms of NELF-B have a similar impact on the transcriptomics and proliferation of mouse embryonic fibroblasts. These results strongly suggest that additional amino acid sequence upstream of the annotated AUG is dispensable for the essential function of NELF in supporting cell growth in vitro. While the majority of mouse adult tissues surveyed exclusively express the full-length NELF-B protein, mouse kidney only contains a truncated NELF-B protein with the same apparent size as the AUG-initiated version. This result raises the distinct possibility that translational initiation of mouse NELF-B is regulated in a tissue-dependent manner. triplicates for ATG-Nelf-B, triplicates for FL-Nelf-B

Genome-wide map of RNA polymerase II, NELF, and DSIF in HeLa cells

Project description:Most metazoan promoters have RNA polymerase II (Pol II) paused slightly downstream of the transcription start site by NELF and DSIF. This pausing keeps these promoters available for rapid induction by P-TEFb, whose activity causes NELF to dissociate and Pol II and DSIF to elongate on the gene. ChIP-Seq data was generated for Pol II, NELF, and DSIF in HeLa cells and used to look at pausing downstream of unannotated promoters. 3x ChIP-Seq (Pol II, NELF, DSIF) in HeLa cells

The NELF pausing checkpoint mediates the functional divergence of Cdk9

Project description:Cdk9 is an essential transcriptional kinase that is conserved across distant eukaryotes, but we previously found that acute inhibition of Cdk9 causes different transcriptional phenotypes in NELF-containing higher eukaryotes (like mammals and Drosophila) vs. the NELF-lacking fission yeast S. pombe. NELF is known to participate in promoter-proximal pausing of RNA Polymerase II, and using NELF-depleted Drosophila cells, we find that this NELF-mediated pause is necessary to prevent gene body entry by Pol II in the absence of Cdk9. Without NELF, the abnormal gene body entry that occurs following Cdk9 inhibition is strikingly similar to that seen in S. pombe, and in either case, these Pol II complexes have elongation defects and are unable to complete gene transcription. These results show that NELF enforces an early checkpoint for Cdk9 and efficiently shuts down gene transcription in its absence. We propose this would have been critical for the emergence of gene regulatory strategies acting via Cdk9 to modulate transcription of specific genes.

NELF-dependent transcription activation

Project description:Jurkat T-cells were latently infected with a defective HIV provirus carrying a GFP reporer gene. The cells were superinfected with a lentiviral vector expressing shRNA to NELF-E. The impact of NELF-depletion on RNAP II distribution on cellular genes and the HIV provirus was measured by ChIP-Seq. Data sets contained between 45 and 56 million mapped reads Four samples were compared: Control shRNA, NELF-E shRNA, Control shRNA plus TNF-a, NELF-E shRNA plus TNF-a.

The negative elongation factor NELF promotes active transcription of Drosophila ecdysone-dependent genes

Project description:The current work describes molecular mechanism used by the Negative elongation complex (NELF) to control the Pol II pause at genes whose transcription is induced by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). According to our data NELF complex is recruited to the promoters and enhancers of 20E-dependent genes. Its presence at the regulatory sites of 20E-dependent genes correlates with the described interaction of its NELF-A subunit with EcR receptor. The NELF complex, consisting of at least three subunits, is formed at the 20E-dependent promoters and participates in their active transcription and maintenance of their repressed state. NELF depletion causes a significant decrease in transcription induced by 20E. We associate this effect with the disruption of Pol II elongation complexes formation. A considerable reduction in the promoter-bound level of Spt5 subunit of DSIF was observed at the 20E-dependent genes upon NELF depletion. We presume that participation in stabilization of the Pol II-DSIF complex can be an important function of NELF with a big impact on transcription of its target genes. Part of our study was to directly link NELF to regulation of 20E-dependent genes in development. We showed presence of NELF at the promoters of 20E-dependent genes during their active transcription both in embryogenesis and metamorphosis. We also demonstrate that 20E-dependent promoters remain in a Pol II paused state at the larva stage, where they are temporarily repressed.

NELF regulates a promoter-proximal step distinct from RNA Pol II pause-release

Project description:RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is generally paused at promoter-proximal regions in most metazoans, and based on in vitro studies, this function has been attributed to the negative elongation factor (NELF). Here, we show that upon rapid depletion of NELF, Pol II fails to be released into gene bodies, stopping instead around the +1 nucleosomal dyad-associated region. The transition to the 2nd pause region is independent of positive transcription elongation factor P-TEFb. During the heat shock response, Pol II is rapidly released from pausing at heat shock induced genes, while most genes are paused and transcriptionally downregulated during the heat shock response. We find that both aspects of the heat shock response remain intact upon NELF loss. We find that NELF depletion results in global loss of cap-binding complex from chromatin without global reduction of nascent transcript 5’ cap stability. Thus, our studies implicate NELF functioning in early elongation complexes distinct from Pol II pause-release.
