Project description:Using a modification of the yeast anchor away and PAR-CLIP protocols, we have mapped the position of Pol II genome-wide in living yeast cells after depletion of components of either the polyadenylation (pA) or non-pA termination complexes. Depletion of Ysh1 from the nucleus does not lead to readthrough transcription. In contrast, depletion of the termination factor Nrd1 leads to widespread runaway elongation of non-pA transcripts. Depletion of Sen1 also leads to readthrough at non-pA terminators but in contrast to Nrd1 this readthrough appears less processive. Examination of PAR-CLIP sequencing data of Pol II after removal of different transcriptional termination factors.

Project description:Transcription termination was analyzed by anti RNA pol II ChIP-seq in isogenic human HEK293 cell lines that inducibly express a-amanitin resistant mutants of the RNA polymerase II large subunit with slow and fast elongation rates and in lines that inducbily over-express WT or an active site mutant of the RNA exonuclease "torpedo" Xrn2. Transcription termination zones were mapped by anti-pol II ChIP-seq under conditions where transcription elongation rate was increased or decreased by point mutations in the large subunit of the enzyme. Termination was also assayed under conditions where Xrn2 exonuclease activity was inhibited by over-expression of an active site mutant (D235A).

Project description:Current models of transcription termination factor recruitment to the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription complex rely exclusively on the direct interaction between the termination factor and phosphorylated isoforms of the Pol II C-terminal domain (CTD). Here, we report that the Pol II flap loop is needed for physical interaction of Pol II with the Pcf11/Clp1 subcomplex of cleavage factor IA (CF IA), which functions in both 3? end processing and Pol II termination, and for proper termination of short RNAs in vitro and in vivo. Deletion of the flap loop reduces the in vivo interaction of Pol II with CF IA but increases the association of Nrd1 during stages of the transcription cycle when the CTD is predominantly Ser5 phosphorylated. We propose a model in which the flap loop coordinates a binding equilibrium between the competing termination factors Pcf11 and Nrd1 to Pol II during termination of short RNA synthesis.

Project description:ChIP-chip was performed to identify the genomic binding locations for the termination factors Nrd1, and Rtt103, and for RNA polymerase (Pol) II phosphorylated at the tyrosine 1 and threonine 4 position of its C-terminal domain (CTD). In different phases of the transcription cycle, Pol II recruits different factors via its CTD, which consists of heptapeptide repeats with the sequence Tyr1-Ser2-Pro3-Thr4-Ser5-Pro6-Ser7. Here we show that the CTD of transcribing yeast Pol II is phosphorylated at Tyr1, and that this impairs recruitment of termination factors. Tyr1 phosphorylation levels rise downstream of the transcription start site (TSS), and decrease before the polyadenylation (pA) site. Tyr1-phosphorylated gene bodies are depleted of CTD-binding termination factors Nrd1, Pcf11, and Rtt103. Tyr1 phosphorylation blocks CTD binding by these termination factors, but stimulates binding of elongation factor Spt6. These results show that CTD modifications can not only stimulate but also block factor recruitment, and lead to an extended CTD code for transcription cycle coordination.

Project description:At the 3'-ends of genes, RNA polymerase (Pol) II is dephosphorylated at tyrosine 1 residues of its C-terminal domain (CTD), resulting in recruitment of transcription termination factors. We show that the multisubunit cleavage and polyadenylation factor (CPF) is a Pol II CTD phosphatase and its Glc7 subunit is required for Tyr1 dephosphorylation at the poly-adenylation site and Pol II termination in vivo. ChIP-chip was performed to examine the effect of Glc7 nuclear depletion on genome-wide Pol II occupancy [using ?-Rpb3 (1Y26, cat. no. W0012, neoclone) antibody] and CTD tyrosine 1 phosphorylation levels [using ?-TyrY1P (3D12, D. Eick) antibody].

Project description:In Arabidopsis, RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) often pauses within a few hundred base pairs downstream of the polyadenylation site, reflecting efficient transcriptional termination, but how such pause is regulated remains largely elusive. Here, we studied Pol II dynamics at gene 3’ end by combining comprehensive experiments with mathematical modelling. We generated high-resolution Ser2P Pol II positioning data specifically enriched at gene 3’ end and defined a 3’ end pause index (3’PI). The position but not the extent of the 3’ end pause correlates with termination window size. The 3’PI is not decreased but even mildly increased in the termination deficient mutant xrn3, indicating 3’ end pause is a regulatory step early during the termination and before XRN3 mediated RNA decay that releases the Pol II. Unexpectedly, 3’PI is closely associated with gene exon numbers and co-transcriptional splicing efficiency. Multiple exons genes often display stronger 3’ end pauses and more efficient on-chromatin splicing than genes with few exons. Chemical inhibition of splicing strongly reduces the 3’PI and disrupts its correlation with exon numbers but does not globally impact 3’ end readthrough levels. These results were further confirmed by fitting Pol II positioning data with a mathematical model, which enables the estimation of parameters that define Pol II dynamics. Our work highlights that the number of exons via co-transcriptional splicing is a major determinant of Pol II pausing levels at gene 3’ end in plants.

Project description:RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcription involves initiation from promoters, transcript elongation through the gene body, and cessation of transcription in the downstream terminator regions. In contrast to bacteria, where terminators often contain specific DNA elements to direct RNAP dissociation1, termination by RNAPII is thought to be driven entirely by protein co-factors1-3. Here we use biochemical reconstitution to shed new light on RNAPII termination. Unexpectedly, transcription through a terminator region by pure RNAPII results in a significant amount of intrinsic polymerase dissociation at specific sequences containing T-tracts. A combination of biochemistry and single molecule analysis indicates that such intrinsic termination involves pausing without backtracking prior to spontaneous RNAPII dissociation from the DNA template. Importantly, while the ‘torpedo’ Rat1-Rai1 RNA exonuclease (XRN2 in humans) works inefficiently on paused or stopped polymerases, it greatly stimulates intrinsic termination. By contrast, elongation factor Spt4-Spt5 (DSIF in humans) suppresses such termination. Genome-wide analysis in yeast using 3’-end sequencing further supports the idea that transcriptional termination occurs by transcript cleavage at the polyA site exposing a new RNA-end that allows loading of the Rat1-Rai1 torpedo, which then catches up with a destabilised RNAPII at intrinsic termination sites containing T-tracts to terminate transcription.
