    Abstract The transcriptome is far more complex than previously assumed. Transcripts from the same gene can differ in terms of transcription start site, transcription end site, or pattern of splicing, and growing evidence supports the functional importance of these distinct transcript isoforms. Easily identifying these isoforms experimentally via library construction and high-throughput sequencing is crucial. Current library construction methods for identifying transcription start sites (5' transcript isoforms) involve large number of steps and (expensive) reagents, utilization of cDNA intermediates for adapter ligation, and are less suitable for studying low-abundance isoforms. Here, I describe a quick protocol for the generation of sequencing libraries to define capped 5' isoforms (5'-Seq) of various abundances in yeast and suggest a 5' isoform data analysis pipeline. The protocol relies on the utilization of a dephosphorylation-decapping method (oligo-capping) to generate a sequencing library from mRNA fragments and is a simplification of previously published 5' isoform protocols in terms of the handling steps, time, and cost. This method is exemplified using Saccharomyces cerevisiae mRNA, but it can be applied to various cellular conditions to study the effects of 5' transcript isoforms on transcriptional and/or translational regulation. © 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.

    Abstract We measure transcriptional noise in yeast by analyzing chromatin structure and transcription of an 18-kb region of DNA whose sequence was randomly generated. Nucleosomes fully occupy random-sequence DNA, but nucleosome-depleted regions (NDRs) are much less frequent, and there are fewer well-positioned nucleosomes and shorter nucleosome arrays. Steady-state levels of random-sequence RNAs are comparable to yeast mRNAs, although transcription and decay rates are higher. Transcriptional initiation from random-sequence DNA occurs at numerous sites, indicating very low intrinsic specificity of the RNA Pol II machinery. In contrast, poly(A) profiles of random-sequence RNAs are roughly comparable to those of yeast mRNAs, suggesting limited evolutionary restraints on poly(A) site choice. Random-sequence RNAs show higher cell-to-cell variability than yeast mRNAs, suggesting that functional elements limit variability. These observations indicate that transcriptional noise occurs at high levels in yeast, and they provide insight into how chromatin and transcription patterns arise from the evolved yeast genome.

    Abstract Maintenance of a healthy and functional proteome in all cellular compartments is critical to cell and organismal homeostasis. Yet, our understanding of the proteostasis process within the nucleus is limited. Here, we discuss the identified roles of the major molecular chaperones Hsp90, Hsp70, and Hsp60 with client proteins working in diverse DNA-associated pathways. The unique challenges facing proteins in the nucleus are considered as well as the conserved features of the molecular chaperone system in facilitating DNA-linked processes. As nuclear protein inclusions are a common feature of protein-aggregation diseases (e.g., neurodegeneration), a better understanding of nuclear proteostasis is warranted.

    Abstract Genomic events including gene regulation and chromatin status are controlled by transcription factors. Here we report that the Hsp90 molecular chaperone broadly regulates the transcription factor protein family. Our studies identified a biphasic use of Hsp90 in which early inactivation (15 min) of the chaperone triggered a wide reduction of DNA binding events along the genome with concurrent changes to chromatin structure. Long-term loss (6 h) of Hsp90 resulted in a decline of a divergent yet overlaying pool of transcription factors that produced a distinct chromatin pattern. Although both phases involve protein folding, the early point correlated with Hsp90 acting in a late folding step that is critical for DNA binding function, whereas prolonged Hsp90 inactivation led to a significant decrease in the steady-state transcription factor protein levels. Intriguingly, despite the broad chaperone impact on a variety of transcription factors, the operational influence of Hsp90 was at the level of chromatin with only a mild effect on gene regulation. Thus, Hsp90 selectively governs the transcription factor process overseeing local chromatin structure.

    Abstract Molecular chaperones govern protein homeostasis, being allied to the beginning (folding) and ending (degradation) of the protein life cycle. Yet, the Hsp90 system primarily associates with native factors, including fully assembled complexes. The significance of these connections is poorly understood. To delineate why Hsp90 and its cochaperone p23 interact with a mature structure, we focused on the RSC chromatin remodeler. Both Hsp90 and p23 triggered the release of RSC from DNA or a nucleosome. Although Hsp90 only freed bound RSC, p23 enhanced nucleosome remodeling prior to discharging the complex. In vivo, RSC mobility and remodeling function were chaperone dependent. Our results suggest Hsp90 and p23 contribute to proteostasis by chaperoning mature factors through energetically unfavorable events, thereby maintaining the cellular pool of active native proteins. In the case of RSC, p23 and Hsp90 promote a dynamic action, allowing a limited number of remodelers to effectively maintain chromatin in a pliable state.
