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.

Project description:Control of transcription speed, which influences many co-transcriptional processes, is poorly understood. We report that PNUTS-PP1 phosphatase is a negative regulator of RNA pol II elongation rate. The PNUTS W401A mutation, which disrupts PP1 binding, causes genome-wide acceleration of transcription associated with hyper-phosphorylation of the Spt5 elongation factor. Immediately downstream of poly(A) sites, pol II decelerates from >2kb/min to <1 kb/min, which correlates with Spt5 dephosphorylation. Pol II deceleration and Spt5 dephosphorylation require poly(A) site recognition and the PNUTS-PP1 complex, which is in turn necessary for transcription termination. These results lead to a new model for termination, the “sitting duck torpedo” mechanism, where poly(A) site-dependent deceleration caused by PNUTS-PP1 and Spt5 dephosphorylation is required to convert pol II into a viable target for the Xrn2 terminator exonuclease. Spt5 and its bacterial homologue NusG therefore have related functions controlling kinetic competition between RNA polymerases and the termination factors that pursue them.

Project description:Base J is a modified DNA base that is enriched at RNA polymerase II termination sites. We previously identified a complex in Leishmania major and T. brucei composed of PNUTS, PP1, Wdr82 and a J-binding protein (JBP3). We show that deletion of PP1 in L. major leads to readthrough transcription and expression of downstream genes.

Project description:Base J is a modified DNA base that is enriched at RNA polymerase II termination sites. We previously found that base J functions to prevent readthrough transcription within gene clusters via the PJW/PP1 complex. Analysis of the complex in T. brucei faild to identify the catalytic PP1 component. We now show the RNAi ablation of PP1-1 in T. brucei leads to readthrough transcription and expression of downstream genes.

Project description:The deletion of the protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) regulator NIPP1 is embryonic lethal during gastrulation, hinting at a key role of PP1-NIPP1 in lineage specification. Consistent with this notion we show here that a mild, stable overexpression of NIPP1 in HeLa cells caused a massive induction of genes of the mesenchymal lineage, in particular smooth/cardiac-muscle and matrix markers. This reprogramming was associated with the formation of actin-based stress fibers and retracting filopodia, and a reduced proliferation potential. The NIPP1-induced mesenchymal transition required functional substrate and PP1-binding domains, suggesting that it involves the selective dephosphorylation of substrates of PP1-NIPP1.

Project description:The end of the RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription cycle is strictly regulated to ensure proper mRNA maturation and prevent interference between neighboring genes. Pol II slowing downstream of the cleavage and polyadenylation signal (CPS) leads to recruitment of cleavage and polyadenylation factors and termination, but how this chain of events is initiated remains unclear. In a chemical-genetic screen we identified protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) isoforms as substrates of human positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), the cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (Cdk9)-cyclin T1 complex. Here we show that Cdk9 and PP1 govern phosphorylation of the conserved transcription factor Spt5 in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Cdk9 phosphorylates both Spt5 and a negative regulatory site on the PP1 isoform Dis2. Sites phosphorylated by Cdk9 in the Spt5 carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) are dephosphorylated by Dis2 in vitro, and Cdk9 inhibition in vivo leads to rapid Spt5 dephosphorylation that is retarded by concurrent Dis2 inactivation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis indicates that Spt5 is dephosphorylated as transcription complexes traverse the CPS, prior to or concomitant with Pol II pausing. A Dis2-inactivating mutation stabilizes Spt5 phosphorylation (pSpt5) on chromatin, promotes transcription beyond the normal termination zone detected by precision run-on transcription and sequencing (PRO-seq), and is suppressed by ablation of Cdk9 target sites in Spt5. These results support a model whereby the transition of Pol II from elongation to termination is regulated by opposing activities of Cdk9 and Dis2 towards their common substrate Spt5—a bistable switch analogous to a Cdk1-PP1 module that controls exit from mitosis.

In total 16 samples were processed. Four different cell lines were analysed: HTO_parental, HTO_NIPP1wt, HTO_NIPP1m (= alias NIPP1-Pm) and HTO_NIPP1-Pa. For each cell line 4 replicates were obtained. The HTO_parental cell line is the control cell line. For the HTO_NIPP1wt and the HTO_NIPP1-Pa the 4 replicates were obtained from two replicates of two different transgenic cell lines expressing FlagNIPP1wt (cell line wt n°1 and 2) and FlagNIPP1-Pa (cell line n°1 and 2), respectively. Each cell line was derived from the same parental control cell line.

Project description:RNA polymerase II progression from initiation to elongation is driven in part by a cascade of protein kinases acting on the core transcription machinery. Conversely, the corresponding phosphatases, notably PP2A and PP1—the most abundant serine-threonine phosphatases in cells—are thought to mainly impede polymerase progression, respectively restraining pause release at promoters and polymerase elongation at terminators. Here we reveal an unexpected role of PP1, within the PNUTS-PP1 complex, in sustaining global transcriptional activation. Acute disruption of PNUTS-PP1 leads to severe defects in the release of paused polymerase and subsequent downregulation for the majority of transcribed genes. Mechanistically, PNUTS-PP1 promotes pause release by dephosphorylating multiple substrates, including the 7SK snRNP subunit MEPCE, a known regulator of pause release. PNUTS-PP1 exhibits antagonistic functions compared to INTAC phosphatase, which generally inhibits pause release. Our research thus highlights the opposing roles of PP1 and PP2A in modulating genome-wide transcriptional pausing and gene expression.
