(Submitter supplied) The Paf1 complex (Paf1C) is a conserved transcription elongation factor that regulates transcription elongation efficiency, facilitates co-transcriptional histone modifications, and impacts molecular processes linked to RNA synthesis, such as polyA site selection. Coupling of the activities of Paf1C to transcription elongation requires its association with RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Mutational studies in yeast identified Paf1C subunits Cdc73 and Rtf1 as important mediators of Paf1C association with Pol II on active genes. more...

(Submitter supplied) Transcription by RNA polymerase II is regulated by epigenetic modifications to the chromatin template. The mono-ubiquitylation of H2B is established during transcription elongation and broadly impacts chromatin architecture and gene expression. The Polymerase Associated Factor 1 complex (Paf1C) is required for H2B ubiquitylation through an unknown mechanism. Here, we find that a 66-amino acid histone modification domain (HMD) within the Rtf1 subunit of Paf1C promotes H2B ubiquitylation in cells lacking all Paf1C members and present the crystal structure of this domain. more...

(Submitter supplied) The FACT complex and Spt6 are conserved histone chaperones that are recruited to the open reading frames of transcribed genes. In this study, we provide evidence that FACT interaction with acetylated H3 tail is important for its localization to the coding sequences. Pol II CTD kinase Kin28 additionally stimulates FACT recruitment to a subset of genes. Pol II occupancies in the 5’ ends of transcribed genes are greatly reduced on depleting FACT, whereas reduced occupancies at the 3’ ends were observed upon Spt6 depletion indicating that these factors modulate Pol II progression through distinct regions of transcribed coding sequences. more...

(Submitter supplied) Spt6 is a multifunctional histone chaperone involved in the maintenance of chromatin structure during elongation by RNA polymerase II (Pol II). Spt6 has a tandem SH2 (tSH2) domain within its C-terminus that recognizes Pol II CTD peptides phosphorylated on Ser2, Ser5 or Try1 in vitro. Deleting the tSH2 domain, however, only has a partial effect on Spt6 occupancy in vivo, suggesting that more complex mechanisms are involved in the Spt6 recruitment. more...

(Submitter supplied) To identify the direct targets of the Paf1/RNA polymerase II complex we compared expression profiles of isogenic wild type and paf1 and ctr9 mutant strains. We also created a Tet-regulated form of Paf1 and monitored expression patterns after shut off of Paf1. Samples were isolated at one hour intervals from 1 to 8 hours after shut off.

(Submitter supplied) Spt6 is an essential histone chaperone that mediates nucleosome reassembly during gene transcription. Spt6 interacts with elongating RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) via a tandem Src2 homology (tSH2) domain, but it is not known whether this particular interaction is required for the nucleosome reassembly activity of Spt6. Here, we show that Spt6 recruitment to genes and its nucleosome reassembly functions are largely independent of association with RNAPII. more...

(Submitter supplied) The histone chaperone Spt6 is involved in promoting elongation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII), maintaining chromatin structure, regulating co-transcriptional histone modifications, and controlling mRNA processing. These diverse functions of Spt6 are partly mediated through its interactions with RNAPII and other factors in the transcription elongation complex. In this study, we used mass spectrometry to characterize the differences in RNAPII interacting factors between wild-type cells and those depleted for Spt6, leading to the identification of proteins that depend on Spt6 for their interaction with RNAPII. more...

(Submitter supplied) The Pol II elongation rate influences poly(A) site selection, with slow and fast Pol II derivatives causing upstream and downstream shifts, respectively, in poly(A) site utilization. In yeast, depletion of either of the histone chaperones FACT or Spt6 causes an upstream shift of poly(A) site use that strongly resembles the poly(A) profiles of slow Pol II mutant strains. Like slow Pol II mutant strains, Spt6- and FACT-depleted cells exhibit processivity defects, indicating that both Spt6 and FACT stimulate the Pol II elongation rate. more...

(Submitter supplied) Yeast cells undergoing the diauxic response show a striking upstream shift in poly(A) site utilization, with increased use of ORF-proximal poly(A) sites resulting in shorter 3’ mRNA isoforms for most genes. This altered poly(A) pattern is extremely similar to that observed in cells containing Pol II derivatives with slow elongation rates. Conversely, cells containing derivatives with fast elongation rates show a subtle downstream shift in poly(A) sites. more...

(Submitter supplied) We measured half-lives of 21,248 mRNA 3’ isoforms in yeast by rapidly depleting RNA polymerase II from the nucleus and performing direct RNA sequencing throughout the decay process. Interestingly, the half-lives of mRNA isoforms from the same gene, including nearly identical isoforms, often vary widely. Based on clusters of isoforms with different half-lives, we identify hundreds of sequences conferring stabilization or destabilization upon mRNAs terminating downstream. more...

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...

We combine rapid factor depletion from human cells with genome-wide analyses of changes in RNA synthesis and occupancy with engaged Pol II. more...

(Submitter supplied) Spt6 is a conserved factor that controls transcription and chromatin structure across the genome. Although viewed as an elongation factor, spt6 mutations allow transcription from within coding regions, suggesting that Spt6 also controls initiation. To comprehensively characterize the requirement for Spt6 in transcription, we have used four approaches: TSS-seq and TFIIB ChIP-nexus to assay transcription initiation, NET-seq to assay elongating RNAPII, and MNase-seq to assay nucleosome occupancy and positioning. more...

(Submitter supplied) The conserved transcription elongation factor Spt6 makes several contacts with the RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII) complex, including a high-affinity interaction between the Spt6 tandem SH2 domain (Spt6-tSH2) and phosphorylated residues of the Rpb1 subunit in the linker between the catalytic core and the C-terminal domain (CTD) heptad repeats. This interaction contributes to generic localization of Spt6, but we show here that it also has gene-specific roles. more...
