Project description:Cmr1 (changed mutation rate 1) is a largely uncharacterized nuclear protein that has recently emerged in several global genetic interaction and protein localization studies. It clusters with proteins involved in DNA damage and replication stress response, suggesting a role in maintaining genome integrity. Under conditions of proteasome inhibition or replication stress, this protein localizes to distinct sub-nuclear foci termed as intranuclear quality control (INQ) compartments, which sequester proteins for their subsequent degradation. Interestingly, it also interacts with histones, chromatin remodelers and modifiers, as well as with proteins involved in transcription including subunits of RNA Pol I and Pol III, but not with those of Pol II. It is not known whether Cmr1 plays a role in regulating transcription of Pol II target genes. Here, we show that Cmr1 is recruited to the coding regions of transcribed genes of S. cerevisiae. Cmr1 occupancy correlates with the Pol II occupancy genome-wide, indicating that it is recruited to coding sequences in a transcription-dependent manner. Cmr1-enriched genes include Gcn4 targets and ribosomal protein genes. Furthermore, our results show that Cmr1 recruitment to coding sequences is stimulated by Pol II CTD kinase, Kin28, and the histone deacetylases, Rpd3 and Hos2. Finally, our genome-wide analyses implicate Cmr1 in regulating Pol II occupancy at transcribed coding sequences. However, it is dispensable for maintaining co-transcriptional histone occupancy and histone modification (acetylation and methylation). Collectively, our results show that Cmr1 facilitates transcription by directly engaging with transcribed coding regions. ChIp-chip experiments were perfomed to determine genome-wide distribution of Cmr1 in WT and gcn4Δ cells (S. cerevisiae). Rpb3 occupancy in WT and cmr1Δ cells was also determined to reveal the changes in Pol II occupancy in the absence of Cmr1.

Project description:RSC (Remodels the Structure of Chromatin) is a conserved ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complex that regulates many biological processes, including transcription by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). We report that not only RSC binds to nucleosomes in coding sequences (CDSs) but also remodels them to promote transcription. RSC MNase ChIP-seq data revealed that RSC-protected fragments were very heterogenous (~80 bp to 180 bp) compared to the sharper profile displayed by the MNase inputs (140 bp to 160 bp), supporting the idea that RSC activity promotes accessibility of nucleosomal DNA. Importantly, RSC binding to +1 nucleosomes and CDSs, but not with -1 nucleosomes, strongly correlated with Pol II occupancies suggesting that the RSC enrichment in CDSs is important for efficient transcription. This is further supported by a similar heterogenous distribution of Pol II-protected fragments. As such, the genes harboring high-levels of RSC in their CDSs were the most strongly affected by ablating RSC function. Altogether, this study provides a mechanism by which RSC-mediated remodeling aids in RNA Pol II traversal though coding sequence nucleosomes in vivo.

Project description:H3 ChIP and input DNA were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip S. cerevisiae Tiling 1.0R Array Genome-wide mapping of nucleosomes generated by micrococcal nuclease (MNase) suggests that yeast promoter and terminator regions are very depleted of nucleosomes, predominantly because their DNA sequences intrinsically disfavor nucleosome formation. However, MNase has strong DNA sequence specificity that favors cleavage at promoters and terminators and accounts for some of the correlation between occupancy patterns of nucleosomes assembled in vivo and in vitro. Using an improved method for measuring nucleosome occupancy in vivo that does not involve MNase, we confirm that promoter regions are strongly depleted of nucleosomes, but find that terminator regions are much less depleted than expected. Unlike at promoter regions, nucleosome occupancy at terminators is strongly correlated with the orientation of and distance to adjacent genes. In addition, nucleosome occupancy at terminators is strongly affected by growth conditions, indicating that it is not primarily determined by intrinsic histone-DNA interactions. Rapid removal of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) causes increased nucleosome occupancy at terminators, strongly suggesting a transcription-based mechanism of nucleosome depletion. However, the distinct behavior of terminator regions and their corresponding coding regions suggests that nucleosome depletion at terminators is not simply associated with passage of Pol II, but rather involves a distinct mechanism linked to 3’ end formation.

Project description:Transcription of mRNA products by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is a multi-stage event subject to a multitude of regulatory processes. Transcription, RNA processing, and chromatin related factors all interact with Pol II to ensure proper timing and coordination of transcription and co-transcriptional processes. Many regulators must function simultaneously to coordinate these processes, yet few strategies exist to explore the full complement of factors regulating specific stages of transcription. To this end we developed a strategy to purify Pol II elongation complexes from specific loci of a single gene, namely the 5′ and 3′ regions, using sequences in the nascent RNA. Applying this strategy to Saccharomyces cerevisiae we determined the specific set of factors that interact with Pol II at precise stages during transcription. We identify many known region-specific factors as well as determine a role for the transcription termination factor Rai1 in regulating the early stages of transcription genome-wide. We also demonstrate a role for the ubiquitin ligase Bre1 in regulating Pol II dynamics during the latter stages of transcription. This strategy for gene and loci-specific isolation of transcription complexes will provide a useful tool to explore the host of factors that regulate the different stages of transcription and coordinate co-transcriptional processes.

Project description:Nuclear depletion of the essential transcription termination factor Nrd1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied using a combination of RNA-Seq, ChIP-Seq of Pol II and PAR-CLIP of Nrd1. The drug rapamycin induces the formation of a ternary complex between a protein of interest, the drug and the small subunit of the ribosome (both proteins are genetically engineered). The small ribosome subunit is transported out of the nucleus. therefore the protein of interest can be depleted from nucleus upon treatment with rapamycin.
