Project description:In recent years there has been considerable and growing interest in the 3-dimensional organization of genomes. In yeast this has included detailed FISH studies that show a surprising degree of spatial clustering of the tRNA genes, the localization of telomeres, centromere positioning, and global studies of chromosomal interactions. In this study we performed an integrated biophysical – molecular study to produce the first high-resolution 3-dimensional reconstruction of a eukaryotic genome from first principles. Our conformations were produced using a using a molecular dynamics simulator to model the 16 yeast chromosomes as individual polymers. Critically, the compaction, folding and spatial organization of these chromosomes was informed by empirical data determined using proximity-based ligation. Our models allow us to investigate the structural organization and functional spatial clustering of the yeast nucleus at a resolution that has not previously been possible. We clearly show that yeast chromosomes have preferred yet non-exclusive positions. Surprisingly, while there are general trends relating chromosome position along the spindle pole body – nucleolus axis and chromosome size, some chromosomes have territories that contain two linked domains. Similarly, there is clear evidence for functional clustering of tRNAs and Gal4 protein binding sites. Intriguingly, these functional clusters are dynamic and the identity of the component elements alters in different model solutions.

Project description:Chromosomes are packaged and organized in the nucleus in an ordered, non-random manner. This organization influences many nuclear processes such as transcription, gene silencing and mitosis. While transfer RNA genes (tDNAs) are essential for the generation of tRNAs these gene loci are also binding sites for transcription factors and chromosomal architectural proteins. In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, tDNAs are dispersed along all sixteen chromosomes. In this study, we investigated the role of tDNAs in genomic organization and nuclear function by editing a chromosome so that it lacks any tDNAs. Our analyses of this tDNA-less chromosome show that loss of tDNAs affect nucleosome positioning, binding of SMC proteins, centromere clustering, long-range chromosome folding and epigenetic gene silencing. We propose that these effects are primarily mediated via changes in local interactions between tDNAs and other regulatory sequences that then manifest as alterations in long-range chromosome architecture with effects on gene regulation over large distances.

Project description:Condensins are broadly conserved chromosome organizers that function in chromatin compaction and transcriptional regulation, but to what extent these two functions are linked has remained unclear. Here, we analyzed the effect of condensin inactivation on genome compaction and global gene expression in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Spike-in-controlled 3C-seq analysis revealed that acute condensin inactivation led to a global decrease in close-range chromosomal interactions as well as more specific losses of homotypic tRNA gene clustering. In addition, we identified a condensin-rich topologically associated domain between the ribosomal DNA and the centromere on chromosome XII that is lost upon condensin inactivation. Unexpectedly, these large-scale changes in chromosome architecture were not associated with global changes in transcript levels as determined by spike-in-controlled mRNA-seq analysis. Our data suggest that the global transcriptional program of S. cerevisiae is resistant to condensin inactivation and the associated profound changes in genome organization.

Project description:The three-dimensional (3D) organization of chromosomes can influence transcription. However, the frequency and magnitude of these effects is still controversial. To determine how changes in chromosome positioning affect transcription we characterized nuclear organization and global gene expression after large-scale chromosomal rearrangements in budding yeast. We used computational modelling and single cell imaging to determine chromosome position and integrated these data with genome-wide transcriptional profiles from RNA sequencing. Chromosome displacement relative to the nuclear periphery has mild but widespread and significant effects on transcription. Our study suggests that basal transcriptional activity is sensitive to radial changes on chromosomal position, and provides support for the functional relevance of budding yeast chromosome-level 3D organization in gene expression.

Project description:To address the mechanisms of suppression, we analyzed time course of mRNA expression of four suppressed smc2-8 mutant strains. We addressed the question of genomic robustness by systematically screening genomic open reading frames, when induced for high-level expression, for their ability to suppress 55 conditional lethal mutations in yeast, and have discovered 636 suppressor genes participating in 822 novel dosage suppressor interactions. The suppressor genes are functionally broad and are enriched for overlapping open reading frames where mutually overlapping genes tend to be co-suppressors. Studies on suppressors of defects in chromosome condensation, telomere stability, and RNA polymerase II function suggest that adding interactions, by making significant connections where only weak or undetectable interactions were present (rewiring of gene regulatory pathways, and interaction within and between protein complexes) are frequent mechanisms of dosage suppression.
