Activation of P-TEFb by androgen receptor-regulated enhancer RNAs in androgen deprivation conditions [ChIP-Seq]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Androgen receptor (AR) is required for castration resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) progression, but the function and disease relevance of AR-bound enhancers remain poorly understood. Here, we identify a group of AR-regulated enhancer RNAs (e.g. PSA eRNA) that are upregulated in CRPC cells, patient-derived xenografts (PDX) and patient tissues. PSA eRNA binds to CYCLIN T1, activates P-TEFb and promotes in cis and trans gene transcription by increasing serine-2 phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II-Ser2p). To avoid the total Pol II changing by PSA eRNA. We measured the total Pol II using N20 and 8WG16 antibodies with or without PSA eRNA knocking down. To avoid the AR binding changes by PSA eRNA, we also measured the AR binding using AR N20 antibodies with or without PSA eRNA knocking down.
