(Submitter supplied) The histone chaperone FACT and histone H2B ubiquitination (H2Bub) facilitate RNA Polymerase II passage through chromatin. It remains unknown to what extent they cooperate in vivo. Here, we used genome-wide, genetic, biochemical and microscopic approaches to dissect their interplay in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. We show that FACT and H2Bub repress antisense transcripts near the 5’ end and inside gene bodies, respectively. more...

(Submitter supplied) The histone chaperone FACT occupies transcribed regions where it plays prominent roles in maintaining chromatin integrity and preserving epigenetic information. How it is targeted to transcribed regions, however, remains unclear. Proposed models for how FACT finds its way to transcriptionally active chromatin include docking on the RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) C-terminal domain (CTD), recruitment by elongation factors, recognition of modified histone tails and binding partially disassembled nucleosomes. 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) Transcript elongation by RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) is accompanied by conserved patterns of histone modification within transcribed regions, but it remains uncertain how these modifications influence, or are influenced by, properties of the elongation complex. Here we establish an intimate link between Cdk9, the kinase component of positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), and mono-ubiquitylation of histone H2B (H2Bub1), in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. more...

(Submitter supplied) The genetic information encoded in DNA is framed by additional layers of information, referred to as the epigenome. Epigenetic marks such as DNA methylation, histone modifications and histone variants are concentrated on specific genomic sites as means to instruct, but also sometimes as a consequence of, gene expression. How this information is maintained, notably in the face of transcription, is not understood. more...

(Submitter supplied) The FACT (FAcilitates Chromatin Transactions) complex is a conserved complex that maintains chromatin structure on transcriptionally active genes. Consistent with this, FACT is enriched on highly expressed genes, but how it is targeted to these regions is unknown. In vitro, FACT binds destabilized nucleosomes, supporting the hypothesis that FACT is targeted to transcribed chromatin through recognition of RNA polymerase-disrupted nucleosomes. more...

(Submitter supplied) FACT is a histone chaperone that can destabilize or assemble nucleosomes. Acetylation of histone H3-K56 weakens a histone:DNA contact that is central to FACT activity, suggesting that this modification could affect FACT functions. We tested this by asking how mutations of H3-K56 and FACT affect nucleosome structure, chromatin integrity, and transcription output. Mimics of unacetylated or permanently acetylated H3-K56 had different effects on FACT in vitro and in vivo as expected, but H3-K56 and FACT mutations caused surprisingly similar changes in transcription of individual genes. 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...
