E47 and Id2 Regulation of Pol III Transcription: Implications for tRNA Genes

This study investigates the role of E47 and Id2 proteins in the regulation of Pol III transcription and their impact on tRNA gene expression. The results demonstrate that E47 negatively affects Pol III transcript levels, while Id2 positively regulates Pol III gene transcription. Furthermore, E47 knockdown enhances the recruitment of Brf1 and RPC155 at tRNA genes, while Id2 knockdown diminishes their recruitment. This research sheds light on the molecular mechanisms underlying tRNA gene expression regulation.

  1. Figure 1: E47 is present on tRNA genes 1A IP/ Input IP 1B Input TFIIB IgG Brf1 E47 WB: Brf1 A) IP/Input enrichment of E47 at 6 active tRNA genes and one inactive tRNA gene (tRNA81Leu-TAA) measured via Chromatin IP. An IP with SL1 antibody is used as control. ETC19 (Extra TFIIIC binding site) and ApoE gene regions are used as no enrichment control. B) Protein immunoprecipitation performed with the shown antibodies or IgG as a control. Brf1 could be precipitated by an E47 antibody more than a TFIIB or IgG pull-downs. 10% input is used in the first lane.

  3. E47 siRNA knockdown induces 5sRNA and tRNA levels monitored via qPCR. Levels of 3 active tRNAs measured and 5sRNA are depicted • relative to a control siRNA treatment. A value of 1 would mean no change • B) E47 siRNA knockdown enhances recruitment of Brf1 and RPC155 at tRNA genes. Chromatin IP to determine recruitment of Brf1 and RPC155 at 3 tRNA genes upon knockdown of E47 protein levels. Antibodies are used for proteins depicted on the x-axis. Presence of Brf1 and RPC155 is shown relative to a control siRNA treatment. A value of 1 would mean no change. • C) E47 siRNA knockdown affects recruitment of chromatin remodelers at tRNA genes. Chromatin IP to determine recruitment of HDAC and HAT complexes at 3 tRNA genes and 5sRNA upon knockdown of E47 protein levels. Antibodies are used for proteins depicted on the x-axis. Presence of HDAC and HAT complexes are shown relative to a control siRNA treatment. A value of 1 would mean no change. • D) E47 siRNA knockdown enhances presence of permissive chromatin marks and reduces presence of repressive marks at tRNA genes. Chromatin IP to determine recruitment of chromatin marks at tRNA genes upon knockdown of E47 protein levels. Antibodies are used for the appropriate histone modifications are depicted on the x-axis. Presence of acetylated or methylated histone forms is shown relative to a control siRNA treatment. A value of 1 would mean no change.
