(Submitter supplied) To test whether Brd4 and SEC co-regulate the release of promoter-proximally paused Pol II, we performed Pol II ChIP-Seq to analyze the effect of depletion of Brd4 or SEC on HMBA-induced pause release in HCT116 cells.

(Submitter supplied) Release of promoter-proximal paused RNA polymerase II (Pol II) during early elongation is a critical step in transcriptional regulation in metazoan cells. Paused Pol II release is thought to require the kinase activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) for the phosphorylation of DRB sensitivity-inducing factor, negative elongation factor, and C-terminal domain (CTD) serine-2 of Pol II. We found that Pol II-associated factor 1 (PAF1) is a critical regulator of paused Pol II release, that positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) directly regulates the initial recruitment of PAF1 complex (PAF1C) to genes, and that the subsequent recruitment of CDK12 is dependent on PAF1C. more...

(Submitter supplied) In vitro studies identified various factors including P-TEFb, SEC, SPT6, PAF1, DSIF, and NELF functioning at different stages of transcription elongation driven by RNA polymerase II (RNA Pol II). What remains unclear is how these factors cooperatively regulate pause/release and productive elongation in the context of living cells. Using an acute protein-depletion approach, we report that SPT6 depletion results in release of paused RNA Pol II. more...

(Submitter supplied) RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is generally paused at promoter-proximal regions in most metazoans, and based on in vitro studies, this function has been attributed to the negative elongation factor (NELF). Here, we show that upon rapid depletion of NELF, Pol II fails to be released into gene bodies, stopping instead around the +1 nucleosomal dyad-associated region. The transition to the 2nd pause region is independent of positive transcription elongation factor P-TEFb. more...

(Submitter supplied) The Pol II transcription cycle is ordered by CDKs and phosphatases. In fission yeast, Cdk9 phosphorylates carboxy-terminal repeats (CTRs) of Spt5 while inhibiting PP1 during elongation. Transcription past the cleavage and polyadenylation signal (CPS) coincides with PP1-dependent Spt5 dephosphorylation and leads to Pol II pausing with phosphorylated CTD-Ser2 (pSer2). Here we show this switch is conserved in humans: Cdk9 inhibition decreases phosphorylation of both PP1g and Spt5-Thr806 (pThr806), and induces pSer2 upstream of the CPS, whereas PP1 depletion increases pThr806. more...

(Submitter supplied) The super elongation complex (SEC) is required for robust and productive transcription through release of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) with its P-TEFb module and promoting transcriptional processivity with its ELL2 subunit. Malfunction of SEC contributes to multiple human diseases including cancer. Here, we identify peptidomimetic lead compounds, KL-1 and its structural homolog KL-2, which disrupt the interaction between the SEC scaffolding protein AFF4 and P-TEFb, resulting in impaired release of Pol II from promoter-proximal pause sites and a reduced average rate of processive transcription elongation. more...

The Mediator complex is an evolutionarily conserved coregulatory complex that interacts with RNA polymerase II to regulate gene expression. In metazoa, Mediator is composed of some 30 distinct subunits. Mediator exists in multiple, functionally distinct forms that share a common core of subunits and can be distinguished by the presence or absence of a kinase module composed of Med12, Med13, Cdk8, and Cyclin C. more...
