Project description:The regulation of gene expression by RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is a multistep process requiring the concerted action of diverse transcription factors. Very little is known about in vivo function of transcription factor SPT5 as its deletion results in loss of viability. To circumvent this issue and define in vivo mechanism of action for SPT5, we employed acute degradation of SPT5 and studied its consequence on transcription. We find that SPT5 loss triggers degradation of the core Pol II subunit RPB1, a process which we show to be evolutionarily conserved from yeast to human. This RPB1 degradation requires the E3 ubiquitin ligase Cullin 3, the unfoldase VCP/p97 and a novel form of CDK9 kinase complex. SPT5 specifically stabilizes Pol II at promoter proximal regions, permitting Pol II release from promoters to gene bodies. Our findings provide mechanistic insight into the in vivo function of SPT5 in stabilization of promoter-proximal Pol II prior to release into gene bodies for safeguarding accurate gene expression.

Project description:The pause-release model of transcription proposes that pol II pauses 40-100 bases from the start site resulting in a pile-up that is relieved by subsequent release into productive elongation. Pause release is facilitated by PTEFb phosphorylation of the pol II elongation factor, Spt5. We mapped paused polymerases by eNETseq and found frequent pausing in zones that extend ~0.3-3kb into genes, even when PTEFb is inhibited. The fraction of paused polymerases or “pausiness” declines gradually over several kb, and not abruptly as predicted for a discrete pause release event. Spt5 depletion extends pausing zones suggesting that it promotes maturation of elongation complexes to a low-pausing state. Expression of mutants after Spt5 depletion showed that phosphomimetic substitutions in the Spt5 CTR1 domain diminished pausing throughout genes. In contrast mutants that prevent phosphorylation of the Spt5 RNA-binding domain strengthened pausing. Thus distinct Spt5 phospho-isoforms set the balance between pausing and elongation.

Project description:The Spt4-Spt5 complex, and its human homolog DSIF (DRB sensitivity-inducing factor), is unique in its ability to regulate Pol II processivity. Previous studies have shown that Spt5 has the characteristics of a general transcription-elongation factor. However, mutagenesis of Spt5 showed specific phenotypes during development, which were far less severe than those of Pol II defects or TBP deficient embryos. It seems paradoxical that a mutation which alters a general elongation factor can cause rather specific developmental defects. By using Spt5 knockdown zebrafish embryos and microarrays, here we showed that transcript abundance for only a small subset of genes is altered by loss of Spt5. Further investigation of the down-regulated genes showed that the genes most intensely repressed by the knockdown were strongly activated during early development in untreated embryos. Thus, this study shows that gene activation levels may create different requirements for Pol II processivity. Active transcription requires Spt5 for efficient elongation through its stimulatory activity on Pol II processivity. Experiment Overall Design: The expression pattern of Spt5 knockdown embryos was compared to that of the control mopholino oligo injected embryos, both at 21 hours post-fertilization, to show the targets of Spt5. The activation levels of the Spt5-knockdown affected genes were measured by compareing the abundance of transcripts in 21 hours post-fertilization untreated embryos to that in 5 hours post-fertilization untreated embryos.

Project description:Transcription machinery progression is governed by multitasking regulators including SPT5, an evolutionarily conserved factor implicated in virtually all transcriptional steps from enhancer activation to termination. Yet its mechanistic understanding in human cells remains incomplete. Here we utilize rapid degradation system and reveal crucial function of SPT5 in maintaining cellular and chromatin Pol II levels. Rapid SPT5 depletion causes a pronounced reduction of paused Pol II at promoters and enhancers, distinct from NELF degradation resulting in short-distance paused Pol II redistribution. Most of genes exhibit down- but not upregulation, accompanied by greatly impaired transcription activation and altered chromatin landscape at enhancers, and severe Pol II processivity defects at gene bodies. Phosphorylation of KOWx-4/5- linker potentiates pause release and is antagonized by Integrator-PP2A (INTAC) targeting SPT5 and Pol II. Our findings position SPT5 as an essential positive regulator of global transcription by controlling cellular Pol II levels, enhancer activation and landscape, paused Pol II stability, elongation processivity and termination in human.
