Title Identification of non-coding transcripts regulated by the transcription factor Rap1 by RNA-Seq analysis
Organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Experiment type Expression profiling by high throughput sequencing
Non-coding RNA profiling by high throughput sequencing
Summary Many active eukaryotic gene promoters exhibit divergent noncoding transcription, but the mechanisms restricting expression of these transcripts are not well understood. Here we demonstrate how a sequence-specific transcription factor represses divergent noncoding transcription at highly expressed genes in yeast. We find that depletion of the transcription factor Rap1 induces noncoding transcription in a large fraction of Rap1 regulated gene promoters. Specifically, Rap1 prevents transcription initiation at cryptic promoters near its binding sites, which is uncoupled from transcription regulation in the protein-coding direction. We further provide evidence that Rap1 acts independently of chromatin-based mechanisms to repress cryptic or divergent transcription. Finally, we show that divergent transcription in the absence of Rap1 is elicited by the RSC chromatin remodeller. We propose that a sequence-specific transcription factor limits access of basal transcription machinery to regulatory elements and adjacent sequences that act as divergent cryptic promoters, thereby providing directionality towards productive transcription.
 
Overall design RNA-Seq analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae S288C strains transformed with OsTIR1 ligase and auxin-inducible degron (IAA7) tagged Rap1, or wild-type control strains. 3 biological replicates for each sample type and condition are analyzed. For each biological replicate, cells were grown overnight in YPD media, diluted, and treated with DMSO or 500 μM 3-indole-acetic acid (3-IAA, auxin). UNINDUCED samples were taken 30 minutes after treatment, and INDUCED samples were taken 30 minutes or 2 hours after treatment. For WT controls, samples were taken in mid-logarithmic growth. RNA was either subjected to rRNA depletion or polyA RNA purification to generate POLYA and TOTAL RNA-Seq libraries, respectively.
