(Submitter supplied) The MLE DExH helicase and the roX lncRNAs are essential components of the chromatin modifying Dosage Compensation Complex (DCC) in Drosophila. To explore the mechanism of ribonucleoprotein complex assembly, we designed vitRIP, an unbiased, transcriptome-wide in vitro assay that reveals RNA binding specificity. We found that MLE has intrinsic specificity for U-rich sequences and tandem stem-loop structures. more...

(Submitter supplied) The X chromosome provides an ideal model system to study the contribution of RNA-protein interactions in epigenetic regulation. In male flies, roX lncRNAs harbor several redundant domains to interact with the ubiquitin ligase MSL2 and the RNA helicase MLE for X-chromosomal regulation. However, how these interactions provide the mechanics of spreading remains unknown. By employing the uvCLAP methodology, which provides unprecedented information about RNA secondary structures in vivo, we identified the minimal functional unit of roX2 RNA. more...

(Submitter supplied) The Drosophila male-specific lethal (MSL) complex binds to the male X chromosome to activate transcription, and consists of five proteins, MSL1, MSL2, MSL3, MOF, MLE, and two roX RNAs. The MLE helicase remodels the roX lncRNAs, enabling the lncRNA-mediated assembly of the Drosophila dosage compensation complex. MSL2 is expressed only in males and interacts with the N-terminal zinc-finger of the transcription factor CLAMP that is important for specific recruitment of the MSL complex on the male X chromosome. more...

(Submitter supplied) The dosage compensation complex (DCC) of Drosophila identifies its X chromosomal binding sites with exquisite selectivity. The principles that assure this vital targeting are known from the D. melanogaster model: DCC-intrinsic specificity of DNA binding, cooperativity with the CLAMP protein, and non-coding roX2 RNA transcribed from the X chromosome. We found that in D. virilis, a species separated from melanogaster by 40 million years of evolution, all principles are active, but contribute differently to X-specificity. more...

(Submitter supplied) Drosophila males double transcription of their single X chromosome to equalize X-linked gene expression with females, which carry two X chromosomes. Increased transcription requires the Male-Specific Lethal (MSL) complex. One of the primary functions of the MSL complex is thought to be enrichment of H4Ac16 on the male X chromosome, a modification linked to elevated transcription. The roX1 and roX2 RNAs are essential but redundant components of the MSL complex. more...

Analysis of third instar larvae lacking noncoding RNAs roX1 and roX2. The roX RNAs are components of the male-specific lethal (MSL) ribonucleoprotein complex, required for equalization of X:A expression levels in males. Results provide insight into the role of roX RNAs in X-chromosome expression.

(Submitter supplied) Long intergenic noncoding RNAs (lincRNAs) are key regulators of chromatin state, yet the nature and sites of RNA-chromatin interaction are mostly unknown. Here we introduce Chromatin Isolation by RNA Purification (ChIRP), where tiling oligonucleotides retrieve specific lincRNAs and bound protein and DNA sequences, which are enumerated by deep sequencing. ChIRP-seq of two lincRNAs reveal that RNA binding sites in the genome are focal, sequence-specific, and numerous. more...

(Submitter supplied) Thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been identified in eukaryotic genomes, many of which are expressed in spatially and temporally restricted patterns. Nonetheless, the roles of the majority of these transcripts are still unknown. One of the mechanisms by which lncRNAs function is through the modulation of chromatin state. To assess the functions of lncRNAs we developed RNA-DamID, a novel approach that detects lncRNA-genome interactions in a cell-type specific manner in vivo with high sensitivity and accuracy. more...

(Submitter supplied) The role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) in adult hearts is unknown; also unclear is how lncRNA modulates nucleosome remodelling. An estimated 70% of mouse genes undergo antisense transcription1, including myosin heavy chain 7 (Myh7), which encodes molecular motor proteins for heart contraction2. Here we identify a cluster of lncRNA transcripts from Myh7 loci and demonstrate a new lncRNA–chromatin mechanism for heart failure. more...

(Submitter supplied) The rules according to which transcription factors selectively bind only a small subset of genomic sites from a vast pool of similar sequences are not understood. One of the most challenging tasks in DNA recognition is posed by dosage compensation systems that require the unequivocal distinction between a sex chromosome and all autosomes. In Drosophila melanogaster the male-specific-lethal dosage compensation complex (MSL-DCC) doubles the transcription output of most genes on the X chromosome via chromatin modification, but the nature of this selectivity is not known. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transcription regulators select their genomic binding sites from a large pool of similar, non‑functional sequences. Although general principles that allow such discrimination are known, the complexity of DNA elements often precludes a prediction of functional sites. The process of dosage compensation in Drosophila allows exploring the rules underlying binding site selectivity. The male-specific-lethal (MSL) Dosage Compensation Complex selectively binds to some 300 X-chromosomal ‘High Affinity Sites’ (HAS) containing GA‑rich ‘MSL recognition elements’ (MREs), but disregards thousands of other MRE sequences in the genome. more...

(Submitter supplied) Long non-coding RNAs are important regulators of diverse biological prosesses. Here, we report on functional identification and characterization of a novel long intergenic noncoding RNA with MyoD-regulated and skeletal muscle-restricted expression that promotes the activation of the myogenic program, and is therefore termed Linc-RAM (Linc-RNA Activator of Myogenesis). Linc-RAM is transcribed from an intergenic region of myogenic cells and its expression is upregulated during myogenesis. more...

(Submitter supplied) Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have important regulatory roles and can function at the level of chromatin. To determine where lncRNAs bind to chromatin, we developed CHART, a hybridization-based technique that specifically enriches endogenous RNAs along with their targets from reversibly-crosslinked chromatin extracts. CHART was used to enrich the DNA and protein targets of endogenous lncRNAs from fly and human. more...

(Submitter supplied) Extensive tracts of the mammalian genome that lack protein-coding function are still transcribed into long noncoding RNA. While these lncRNA are generally short-lived, length-restricted and non-polyadenylated, how their expression is distinguished from protein-coding genes remains enigmatic. Surprisingly depletion of the ubiquitous Pol II associated transcription elongation factor SPT6, promotes a redistribution of H3K36me3 histone marks from active protein coding to lncRNA genes which correlates with increased lncRNA transcription. more...
