The conserved protein Seb1 drives transcription termination by binding RNA polymerase II and nascent RNA

ABSTRACT: Termination of Pol II transcription is an important step in the transcription cycle and is responsible for dislodgement of polymerase from DNA which leads to the release of a functional transcript. Recent studies have identified key players important for termination and showed a conserved domain that interacts with the phosphorylated C-terminus of Pol II (CTD-Interacting-Domain, CID) to constitute a common feature of these proteins. However, the mechanism by which transcription termination is achieved, is not understood. Using genome-wide methods, we demonstrate that the fission yeast CID protein Seb1 is essential for termination of protein-coding and non-coding genes through interacting with S2-phosphorylated Pol II and nascent RNA. Furthermore, we present the crystal structures of the Seb1 CTD- and RNA-binding modules. Unexpectedly, the latter reveals a novel intertwined two-domain arrangement of a canonical RRM and a second domain. These results provide important insights into the mechanism underlying eukaryotic transcription termination.

The conserved protein Seb1 from fission yeast is recruited to the chromatin during active Pol II transcription

Project description:The protein Seb1 from fission yeast contains a conserved CTD-interacting domain (CID) with which it can bind to phosphorylated forms of the Pol II C-terminal domain (CTD) during active transcription. It mainly interacts with Ser2P-CTD but also with Ser5P-CTD. Here, we show the recruitment profile of the protein to chromatin using ChIP-Seq which is mediated mainly via binding to the Pol II-CTD. In addition, it can also interact with nascent RNA via its RNA recognition motif (RRM) domain.

The Nrd1 CTD-interaction domain contributes to the choice of RNA polymerase II termination pathway and couples to RNA processing by the nuclear exosome

Project description:The RNA polymerase II (RNApII) C-terminal domain (CTD)-interacting domain (CID) proteins are involved in two distinct termination pathways and recognize different phosphorylated forms of CTD. To investigate the role of differential CTDM-^VCID interactions in the choice of termination pathway, we altered the CTD-binding specificity of Nrd1 by domain swapping. ChIP-chip was performed to examine the effect of Nrd1 CID swapping on genome-wide RNA polymerase II (Rpb3 antibody, Neoclone) occupancy. Nrd1 with the CID from Rtt103 (Nrd1[CID-Rtt103]; strain YSB2445) causes read-through transcription at many genes, but can trigger termination where multiple Nrd1/Nab3-binding sites and serine 2 phosphorylated CTD co-exist.

Pol II chromatin immunoprecipitation in S. cerevisiae

Project description:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae short non-coding RNA (ncRNA) generated by RNA Polymerase II (Pol II) are terminated by the NRD complex consisting of Nrd1, Nab3 and Sen1. We now show that Pcf11, a component of the cleavage and polyadenylation complex (CPAC), is generally required for NRD-dependent transcription termination through the action of its CTD interacting domain (CID). Pcf11 localizes downstream of Nrd1 on NRD terminators, and its recruitment depends on Nrd1. Furthermore mutation of the Pcf11 CID results in Nrd1 retention on chromatin, delayed degradation of ncRNA and restricts Pol II CTD Ser2 phosphorylation and Sen1-Pol II interaction. Finally, the pcf11-13 and sen1-1 mutant phenotypes are very similar as both accumulate RNA:DNA hybrids and display Pol II pausing downstream of NRD terminators. We predict a mechanism whereby Nrd1 and Pcf11 exchange on chromatin facilitates Pol II pausing and CTD Ser2-P phosphorylation. This in turn promotes Sen1 activity that is required for NRD-dependent transcription termination in vivo.

CTD tyrosine phosphorylation impairs termination factor recruitment to transcribing RNA polymerase II

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.

Elongation/termination factor exchange mediated by PP1 phosphatase orchestrates trancription termination

Project description:Termination of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription is a key step, that is important for 3’end formation of functional mRNA, mRNA release and Pol II recycling. Even so, this underlying termination mechanism is not yet understood. Here, we demonstrate that the conserved and essential termination factor Seb1 interacts with Pol II near the end of the RNA exit channel and the Rpb4/7 stalk. Furthermore, the Seb1 interaction surface with Pol II largely overlaps with that of the elongation factor Spt5. Notably, Seb1 co-transcriptional recruitment is dependent on Spt5 de-phosphorylation by the conserved PP1 phosphatase Dis2, which also de-phosphorylates threonine 4 within the Pol II heptad repeated C-terminal domain. We propose that Dis2 orchestrates the transition from elongation to termination phase during the transcription cycle by mediating elongation to termination factor exchange and de-phosphorylation of Pol II C-terminal domain.

Molecular basis for coupling transcription termination to non-coding RNA degradation

Project description:The Nrd1-Nab3-Sen1 (NNS) complex plays a pivotal role in the control of pervasive transcription and the generation of sn- and snoRNAs in S. cerevisiae. The NNS-complex terminates transcription of non-coding RNA genes and promotes processing/degradation of transcripts by the nuclear exosome. To assess the role of the Nrd1p CTD-interacting domain (CID) in the function of the NNS-complex, we re-examined whether this domain is required for efficient transcription termination by the NNS pathway. We compared the RNA polymerase II distribution by ChIP and tiling arrays (ChIP-chip) in wild type and nrd1 deltaCID cells. Moreover, we compared the genome-wide chromatin distribution of Nrd1p in the presence and the absence of the CID by ChIP-chip analysis. ChIP of RNA polymerase II was performed using an anti-Rpb3 antibody (1Y26, Neoclone). ChIP of Nrd1 was performed using TAP-tagged S. cerevisiae strains. For details see protocols. To download the wild-type Pol II and Nrd1 data go to E-MTAB-1626 and E-MTAB-1060, respectively.

Mammalian NET-seq reveals genome-wide nascent transcription coupled to RNA processing

Project description:We have generated single-nucleotide resolution, nascent transcription profiles from HeLa cells by developing Native Elongation Transcript sequencing technology for mammalian chromatin (mNET-seq). Our extensive data sets provide a substantial resource to study mammalian nascent transcript profiles. We reveal unanticipated phosphorylation states for RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain (Pol II CTD) at both gene ends. We also observe that following 5’ splice site cleavage by the spliceosome, upstream exon transcripts are tethered to Pol II CTD phosphorylated on the serine 5 position (S5P) which is accumulated over downstream exons. We further show that depletion of termination factors substantially reduces Pol II pausing at gene ends leading to termination defects. Remarkably termination factors play an additional promoter role by restricting non-productive RNA synthesis and redistributing Pol II CTD S2P to promoters. These data demonstrate that CTD phosphorylation is more dynamic and variably distributed across mammalian transcription units than previously envisaged. To monitor nascent RNA within the mammalian Pol II complex, and its association with different CTD phosphorylation states, we employed mNET-seq methodology on HeLa cells, complemented with direct sequencing of chromatin-bound RNA (ChrRNA-seq). mNET-seq was preformed using the antibodies 8WG16, CMA602, CMA603 and CMA601, which are specific for unphosphorylated CTD, Ser2 phosphorylation, Ser5 phosphorylation and all CTD isoforms, respectively. In another experiment, to evaluate the effect of transcription termination factors in nascent RNA production by Pol II, mNET-seq and complemented with ChrRNA-seq was preformed on HeLa cells transfected with siRNA against PTBP1, CPSF73, CstF64+CstF64tau or Xrn2, and the gene profiles were compared with profiles from HeLa transfected with siRNA for Luciferase generated by the same protocol.
