Recently, it has been revealed that DSBs induce novel transcription from the cleavage sites in various species, resulting in RNAs being referred to as damage-induced RNAs (diRNAs). While diRNA synthesis is an early event in the DNA damage response and plays an essential role in DSB repair activation, the location where diRNAs are newly generated in plants remains unclear, as does their transcriptional mechanism. Here, we performed the sequencing of polyadenylated (polyA) diRNAs that emerged around all DSB loci in Arabidopsis thaliana under the expression of the exogenous restriction enzyme Sbf I and observed 88 diRNAs transcribed via RNA polymerase II in 360 DSB loci. Most of the detected diRNAs originated within active genes and were transcribed from DSBs in a bidirectional manner. Furthermore, we found that diRNA elongation tends to terminate at the boundary of an endogenous gene located near DSB loci. Our results provide reliable evidence for understanding the importance of new transcription at DSBs and show that diRNA is a crucial factor for successful DSB repair.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 8","pages":"681-689"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141283489","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

High-mobility group protein (HMG) proteins exhibit DNA-binding and bending activities, playing an important role in the regulation of chromatin structure. We have shown that nucleosomes tightly packaged into heterochromatin undergo considerable dynamic histone H2A-H2B maintenance via the direct interaction between HP1/Swi6 and facilitate chromatin transcription (FACT), which is composed of the Spt16/Pob3 heterodimer and Nhp6. In this study, we analyzed the role of Nhp6, an HMG box protein, in the FACT at heterochromatin. Pob3 mutant strains showed derepressed heterochromatin-dependent gene silencing, whereas Nhp6 mutant strains did not show significant defects in chromatin regulation or gene expression, suggesting that these two modules play different roles in chromatin regulation. We expressed a protein fusing Nhp6 to the C-terminus of Pob3, which mimics the multicellular FACT component Ssrp1. The chromatin-binding activity of FACT increased with the number of Nhp6 fused to Pob3, and the heterochromatin formation rate was promoted more strongly. Furthermore, we demonstrated that this promotion of heterochromatinization inhibited the heterochromatic variegation caused by epe1+ disruption. Heterochromatic variegation can be observed in a variety of regulatory steps; however, when it is caused by fluctuations in chromatin arrangement, it can be eliminated through the strong recruitment of the FACT complex.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 7","pages":"567-583"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141261642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its physiological significance remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that full-length DNMT1 (FL) and a mutant lacking the N-terminus necessary for its maintenance activity (602) confer the differentiation potential of mouse Dnmt1, Dnmt3a, and Dnmt3b (Dnmts-TKO) embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Both FL and 602 inhibit the spontaneous differentiation of Dnmts-TKO ESCs in the undifferentiated state. Dnmts-TKO ESCs showed loss of DNA methylation and de-repression of primitive endoderm-related genes, but these defects were partially restored in Dnmts-TKO + FL and Dnmts-TKO + 602 ESCs. Upon differentiation, Dnmts-TKO + FL ESCs show increased 5mC and 5hmC levels across chromosomes, including pericentromeric regions. In contrast, Dnmts-TKO + 602 ESCs didn't accumulate 5mC, and sister chromatids showed 5hmC asynchronously. Furthermore, in comparison with DNMT1_602, DNMT1_FL effectively promoted commitment to the epiblast-like cells and beyond, driving cell-autonomous mesendodermal and germline differentiation through embryoid body-based methods. With precise target selectivity achieved by its N-terminal region, DNMT1 may play a role in gene regulation leading to germline development.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 7","pages":"549-566"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gtc.13130","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141174407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies had described the PKD gene mutations and polycystin expression in WT 9-12. Nonetheless, the mutations occurring in other ADPKD-associated genes have not been investigated. This study aims to revisit these mutations and protein profile of WT 9-12. Whole genome sequencing verified the presence of truncation mutation at amino acid 2556 (Q2556X) in PKD1 gene of WT 9-12. Besides, those variations with high impacts included single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs8054182, rs117006360, and rs12925771) and insertions and deletions (InDels) (rs145602984 and rs55980345) in PKD1L2; InDel (rs1296698195) in PKD1L3; and copy number variations in GANAB. Protein profiles generated from the total proteins of WT 9-12 and HK-2 cells were compared using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) analysis. Polycystin-1 was absent in WT 9-12. The gene ontology enrichment and reactome pathway analyses revealed that the upregulated and downregulated proteins of WT 9-12 relative to HK-2 cell line leaded to signaling pathways related to immune response and amino acid metabolism, respectively. The ADPKD-related mutations and signaling pathways associated with differentially expressed proteins in WT 9-12 may help researchers in cell line selection for their studies.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 7","pages":"599-607"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141087291","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we found that HPV18 transcripts contain an enhancer RNA-like function to activate proximal genes including CCAT1-5L and c-Myc. We showed that the human genome-integrated HPV18 genes are activated by transcription coregulators including BRD4 and Mediator. The transcribed HPV18 RNAs form a liquid-like condensate at chromosome 8q24.21 locus, which in turn accumulates RNA polymerase II. Moreover, we focused on a relatively uncharacterized transcript from the upstream region of CCAT1, named URC. The URC RNA is transcribed as a chimera RNA with HPV18 and is composed of the 3′-untranslated region of the HPV18 transcript. We experimentally showed that the URC contributes to stabilization of HPV18 RNAs by supplying a polyadenylation site for the HPV18 transcript. Our findings suggest that integrated HPV18 at 8q24.21 locus produces HPV18-URC chimera RNA and promotes tumorigenesis through RNA-based condensate formation.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 7","pages":"532-548"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140876258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we characterize the conserved and novel roles of the fission yeast RCAN1 homolog rcn1+. Consistent with its role as an endogenous calcineurin inhibitor, Rcn1 overproduction reproduced the calcineurin-null phenotypes, including MgCl2 hypersensitivity and inhibition of calcineurin signaling upon extracellular Ca2+ stimuli as evaluated by the nuclear translocation and transcriptional activation of the calcineurin substrate Prz1. Notably, overexpression of rcn1+ causes hypersensitivity to arsenite, whereas calcineurin deletion induces arsenite tolerance, showing a phenotypic discrepancy between Rcn1 overexpression and calcineurin deletion. Importantly, although Rcn1 deletion induces modest sensitivities to arsenite and MgCl2 in wild-type cells, the arsenite tolerance, but not MgCl2 sensitivity, associated with Ppb1 deletion was markedly suppressed by Rcn1 deletion. Collectively, our findings reveal a previously unrecognized functional collaboration between Rcn1 and calcineurin, wherein Rcn1 not only negatively regulates calcineurin in the Cl− homeostasis, but also Rcn1 mediates calcineurin signaling to modulate arsenite cytotoxicity.","PeriodicalId":12742,"journal":{"name":"Genes to Cells","volume":"29 7","pages":"589-598"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140876259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the role of EDEM1 in ERAD has been studied in detail, the turnover of EDEM1 by intracellular degradation machinery, including the proteasome and autophagy, is not well understood. To clarify EDEM1 regulation in the protein level, degradation mechanism of EDEM1 was examined. Our results indicate that both ERAD and autophagy degrade EDEM1 alike misfolded degradation substrates, although each degradation machinery targets EDEM1 in different folded states of proteins. We also found that ERAD factors, including the SEL1L/Hrd1 complex, YOD1, XTP3B, ERdj3, VIMP, BAG6, and JB12, but not OS9, are involved in EDEM1 degradation in a mannose-trimming-dependent and -independent manner.
