Project description:The Cdk8 kinase module (CKM) is a dissociable part of the coactivator complex Mediator that regulates RNA polymerase II (Pol II transcription. The CKM has negative and positive functions in gene transcription that remain poorly understood at the mechanistic level. Here, we prepare recombinant CKM from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and show that it binds core Mediator (cMed) to sterically inhibit cMed binding to the Pol II preinitiation complex (PIC) in vitro. We further show that the Cdk8 kinase activity of CKM counteracts CKM-cMed interaction,thereby releasing CKM and enabling Mediator to bind the PIC. Finally, we report that the kinase activity of Cdk8 is required for gene activation during heat shock in vivo, but not under steady state growth conditions. These results converge with previous literature on a model for CKM function. In this model, CKM negatively regulates Mediator function at upstream activating sequences by preventing Mediator binding to the PIC at the promoter. During gene activation, Cdk8 kinase activity may release Mediator and allow its binding to the PIC, thereby stimulating transcription initiation and accounting for the positive function of CKM.

Project description:The master transcription factors Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog bind enhancer elements and recruit the Mediator co-activator to activate much of the gene expression program of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). We report here that the ESC master transcription factors and Mediator form “super-enhancers” at most genes known to control the pluripotent state, including those encoding the master transcription factors themselves. These super-enhancers consist of extraordinarily large genomic domains occupied by exceptional amounts of Oct4, Sox2, Nanog, Klf4, Esrrb and Mediator. Super-enhancers stimulate considerably higher transcription than typical enhancers in vivo and in reporter vectors. Reduced levels of Oct4 or Mediator cause preferential loss of expression of super-enhancer-associated genes relative to other genes, suggesting how changes in gene expression programs might be accomplished during development. In other more differentiated cells, super-enhancers containing cell-type-specific master transcription factors are also found at genes that define cell identity. These results implicate super-enhancers in the control of mammalian cell identity and differentiation. ChIP-Seq and controls associated with Super-Enhancers in murine cell types

Project description:Cyclin Dependent Kinases CDK8 and CDK19 (Mediator kinase) are regulatory components of the Mediator complex, a highly conserved complex that fine tunes transcriptional output. While Mediator kinase has been implicated in the transcriptional control of key pathways necessary for development and growth, its function in vivo has not been well described. Herein, we report the consequences of complete ablation of both Cdk8/19 on tissue homeostasis. We show that intestinal epithelial specific deletion of Mediator kinase leads to a distinct defect in secretory progenitor differentiation with broad loss of the intestinal secretory cell types. Using a phospho-proteogenomic approach, we show that the Cdk8/19 kinase module interacts with and phosphorylates components of the chromatin remodeling complex Swi/Snf in intestinal epithelial cells. Genomic localisation of Swi/Snf and Mediator shows Cdk8/19-dependent genomic binding at distinct super-enhancer loci within key lineage specification genes, including the master regulator of secretory differentiation ATOH1. Using CRISPRi/CRISPRa, we identify a distinct Mediator- Swi/Snf bound enhancer element that is necessary and sufficient for ATOH1 expression in a Mediator-kinase dependent manner. As such, these studies uncover a newly described transcriptional mechanism of ATOH1-dependent intestinal cell specification that is dependent on the coordinated interaction of the chromatin remodeling complex Swi/Snf and Mediator complex.

Project description:Super-enhancers (SEs), which are composed of large clusters of enhancers densely loaded with the Mediator complex, transcription factors and chromatin regulators, drive high expression of genes implicated in cell identity and disease, such as lineage-controlling transcription factors and oncogenes. BRD4 and CDK7 are positive regulators of SE-mediated transcription. By contrast, negative regulators of SE-associated genes have not been well described. Here we show that the Mediator-associated kinases cyclin-dependent kinase 8 (CDK8) and CDK19 restrain increased activation of key SE-associated genes in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells. We report that the natural product cortistatin A (CA) selectively inhibits Mediator kinases, has anti-leukaemic activity in vitro and in vivo, and disproportionately induces upregulation of SE-associated genes in CA-sensitive AML cell lines but not in CA-insensitive cell lines. In AML cells, CA upregulated SE-associated genes with tumour suppressor and lineage-controlling functions, including the transcription factors CEBPA, IRF8, IRF1 and ETV6. The BRD4 inhibitor I-BET151 downregulated these SE-associated genes, yet also has anti-leukaemic activity. Individually increasing or decreasing the expression of these transcription factors suppressed AML cell growth, providing evidence that leukaemia cells are sensitive to the dosage of SE-associated genes. Our results demonstrate that Mediator kinases can negatively regulate SE-associated gene expression in specific cell types, and can be pharmacologically targeted as a therapeutic approach to AML. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:In nature, plants are often exposed to recurring adverse environmental conditions. Acclimation to high temperature stress entails transcriptional responses that are mediated by heat-shock transcription factors (HSFs), and they are primed to better withstand subsequent stress events. This heat stress (HS)-induced transcriptional memory results in more efficient re-induction of transcription upon recurring HS. However, the mechanisms by which HSFs recruit and enact the transcriptional machinery remain unclear. Here, we identified two subunits of the kinase module of the Mediator transcriptional co-regulator complex, CDK8 and MED12, as regulators of HS memory in Arabidopsis thaliana. Enhanced re-induction of gene expression after recurrent HS and physiological HS memory, as well as H3K4 methylation are compromised in cdk8 and med12 mutants. HSFA2 interacts with CDK8 during and after HS and recruits it to memory gene loci, where CDK8 binds in the promoter but also the gene body, together with core Mediator and RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Our data suggest that CDK8 resolves stalled Pol II complexes or promotes efficient recycling for subsequent cycles of transcription. As HSFA2, CDK8 is largely dispensable for the initial induction of gene expression after HS and thus promotes transcriptional memory independently of HS-dependent primary gene induction. Our findings provide a model for the complex role of the Mediator kinase module during transcriptional memory in multicellular eukaryotes through interaction with transcription factors, chromatin modifications and promotion of Pol II productivity.

Project description:The Mediator complex plays an essential and multi-faceted role in regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription in all eukaryotes. Structural analysis of yeast Mediator provided an understanding of the conserved core of the complex and its interaction with RNA polymerase II, but failed to reveal how Mediator might enable a response to interaction with transcription factors (TFs). Here we present an atomic model of mammalian (Mus musculus) Mediator, derived from a 4.0 Å resolution cryo-EM map of the complex. The mammalian Mediator structure reveals how the previously unresolved Tail module, which includes a number of metazoan specific subunits, modulates Mediator conformation and interactions. The structure also suggests how a bi-partite organization of TF-interacting subunits can be exploited to enable a Mediator mechanism that combines conformational control of molecular interactions and enhancement of transcription through phase separation and enhancer-specific recruitment
