Description
The pervasive nature of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) transcription requires efficient termination. A key player in this process is the cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) factor PCF11, which directly binds to the Pol II C-terminal domain and dismantles elongating Pol II from DNA in vitro. We demonstrate that PCF11-mediated termination is essential for vertebrate development. A range of genomic analyses, including: mNET-seq, 3' mRNA-seq, chromatin RNA-seq and ChIP-seq, reveals that PCF11 enhances transcription termination and stimulates early polyadenylation genome-wide. PCF11 binds preferentially between closely spaced genes, where it prevents transcriptional interference and downstream gene silencing. Notably, PCF11 is sub-stoichiometric to the CPA complex. Low levels of PCF11 are maintained by an auto-regulatory mechanism involving premature termination of its own transcript, and are important for normal development. Both in human cell culture and during zebrafish development, PCF11 selectively attenuates the expression of other transcriptional regulators by premature CPA and termination. Overall design: Semi-nascent transcriptome measured by chromatin-bound RNA-seq in HeLa cells. Control and PCF11 knock-down (2 biological replicates) and control and PCF11 PAS1 deletion (4 biological replicates).

Overall design: 3' mRNA-seq in individual zebrafish embryo heads. Two types of mutants: zPCF11 null and zPCF11 with deletion of PAS1. Wild-type (wt, +/+), heterozygous (het, +/-) and homozygous mutant (hom, -/-) embryos were analyzed. Wild-type and heterozygous animals were phenotypically indistinguishable.

Description
In this study we investigate the role of the non-canonical SMC family protein, SmcHD1in the X inactivation. Overall design: Set of allele-specific chromatin RNA-seq experiments on female clonal inter-specific (M.m.domesticus FVB x M.m.Castaneus) MEF cell lines: wild-type MEFs, SmcHD1 MomeD1 mut MEFs (SmcHD1 null) and SmcHD1 CRISPR KO MEFs (derived from wild-type MEFs after establishemnt of X inactivation).
Publication Title
The non-canonical SMC protein SmcHD1 antagonises TAD formation and compartmentalisation on the inactive X chromosome.
