Abstract
RNA-binding proteins play a key role in shaping gene expression profiles during stress, however, little is known about the dynamic nature of these interactions and how this influences the kinetics of gene expression. To address this, we developed kinetic cross-linking and analysis of cDNAs (χCRAC), an ultraviolet cross-linking method that enabled us to quantitatively measure the dynamics of protein-RNA interactions in vivo on a minute time-scale. Here, using χCRAC we measure the global RNA-binding dynamics of the yeast transcription termination factor Nab3 in response to glucose starvation. These measurements reveal rapid changes in protein-RNA interactions within 1 min following stress imposition. Changes in Nab3 binding are largely independent of alterations in transcription rate during the early stages of stress response, indicating orthogonal transcriptional control mechanisms. We also uncover a function for Nab3 in dampening expression of stress-responsive genes. χCRAC has the potential to greatly enhance our understanding of in vivo dynamics of protein-RNA interactions.Protein RNA interactions are dynamic and regulated in response to environmental changes. Here the authors describe 'kinetic CRAC', an approach that allows time resolved analyses of protein RNA interactions with minute time point resolution and apply it to gain insight into the function of the RNA-binding protein Nab3.

Abstract
In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the DGK1-encoded diacylglycerol kinase catalyzes the CTP-dependent phosphorylation of diacylglycerol to form phosphatidate. This enzyme, in conjunction with PAH1-encoded phosphatidate phosphatase, controls the levels of phosphatidate and diacylglycerol for phospholipid synthesis, membrane growth, and lipid droplet formation. In this work, we showed that a functional level of diacylglycerol kinase is regulated by the Reb1p transcription factor. In the electrophoretic mobility shift assay, purified recombinant Reb1p was shown to specifically bind its consensus recognition sequence (CGGGTAA, -166 to -160) in the DGK1 promoter. Analysis of cells expressing the PDGK1-lacZ reporter gene showed that mutations (GT→TG) in the Reb1p-binding sequence caused an 8.6-fold reduction in β-galactosidase activity. The expression of DGK1(reb1), a DGK1 allele containing the Reb1p-binding site mutation, was greatly lower than that of the wild type allele, as indicated by analyses of DGK1 mRNA, Dgk1p, and diacylglycerol kinase activity. In the presence of cerulenin, an inhibitor of de novo fatty acid synthesis, the dgk1Δ mutant expressing DGK1(reb1) exhibited a significant defect in growth as well as in the synthesis of phospholipids from triacylglycerol mobilization. Unlike DGK1, the DGK1(reb1) expressed in the dgk1Δ pah1Δ mutant did not result in the nuclear/endoplasmic reticulum membrane expansion, which occurs in cells lacking phosphatidate phosphatase activity. Taken together, these results indicate that the Reb1p-mediated regulation of diacylglycerol kinase plays a major role in its in vivo functions in lipid metabolism.

Abstract
The molecular mechanisms mediating eukaryotic replication termination and pausing remain largely unknown. Here we present the molecular characterization of Rtf1 that mediates site-specific replication termination at the polar Schizosaccharomyces pombe barrier RTS1. We show that Rtf1 possesses two chimeric myb/SANT domains: one is able to interact with the repeated motifs encoded by the RTS1 element as well as the elements enhancer region, while the other shows only a weak DNA binding activity. In addition we show that the C-terminal tail of Rtf1 mediates self-interaction, and deletion of this tail has a dominant phenotype. Finally, we identify a point mutation in Rtf1 domain I that converts the RTS1 element into a replication barrier of the opposite polarity. Together our data establish that multiple protein DNA and protein-protein interactions between Rtf1 molecules and both the repeated motifs and the enhancer region of RTS1 are required for site-specific termination at the RTS1 element.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A transcriptional regulatory module (TRM) is a set of genes that is regulated by a common set of transcription factors (TFs). By organizing the genome into TRMs, a living cell can coordinate the activities of many genes and carry out complex functions. Therefore, identifying TRMs is helpful for understanding gene regulation. RESULTS Integrating gene expression and ChIP-chip data, we develop a method, called MOdule Finding Algorithm (MOFA), for reconstructing TRMs of the yeast cell cycle. MOFA identified 87 TRMs, which together contain 336 distinct genes regulated by 40 TFs. Using various kinds of data, we validated the biological relevance of the identified TRMs. Our analysis shows that different combinations of a fairly small number of TFs are responsible for regulating a large number of genes involved in different cell cycle phases and that there may exist crosstalk between the cell cycle and other cellular processes. MOFA is capable of finding many novel TF-target gene relationships and can determine whether a TF is an activator or/and a repressor. Finally, MOFA refines some clusters proposed by previous studies and provides a better understanding of how the complex expression program of the cell cycle is regulated. CONCLUSION MOFA was developed to reconstruct TRMs of the yeast cell cycle. Many of these TRMs are in agreement with previous studies. Further, MOFA inferred many interesting modules and novel TF combinations. We believe that computational analysis of multiple types of data will be a powerful approach to studying complex biological systems when more and more genomic resources such as genome-wide protein activity data and protein-protein interaction data become available.

Abstract
Reb1p is a DNA binding protein of Saccharomyces cerevisiae that has been implicated in the activation of transcription by polymerase (Pol) II, in the termination of transcription by Pol I, and in the organization of nucleosomes. Studies of the transcriptional control of the REB1 gene have led us to identify three Reb1p binding sites in the 5' region of the its gene, termed A, B, and C, at positions -110, -80, and +30 with respect to transcription initiation. In vitro, Reb1p binds to the three sites with the relative affinity of A >/= C > B. Kinetic parameters suggest that when both A and C sites are present on the same DNA molecule, the C site may recruit Reb1p for the A site. In vivo the A and B sites each contribute to the transcription activity of REB1 in roughly additive fashion. Mutation of both A and B sites abolishes transcription. On the other hand, the C site is a negative element, reducing transcription by 40%. In cells overexpressing Reb1p, the C site reduces transcription by more than 80%. This effect can be transposed to another transcription unit, demonstrating that the effect of Reb1p binding at the C site does not depend on interaction with upstream Reb1p molecules. Relocation of the C site to a position 105 bp downstream of the transcription initiation site abolishes its effect, suggesting that it does not act as a conventional attenuator of transcription. We conclude that binding of Reb1p at the C site hinders formation of the initiation complex. This arrangement of Reb1p binding sites provides a positive and negative mechanism to autoregulate the expression of REB1. Such an arrangement could serve to dampen the inevitable fluctuation in Rep1p levels caused by the intermittent presence of its mRNA within an individual cell.

Abstract
The coding sequences for a Schizosaccharomyces pombe sequence-specific DNA binding protein, Reb1p, have been cloned. The predicted S. pombe Reb1p is 24-29% identical to mouse TTF-1 (transcription termination factor-1) and Saccharomyces cerevisiae REB1 protein, both of which direct termination of RNA polymerase I catalyzed transcripts. The S.pombe Reb1 cDNA encodes a predicted polypeptide of 504 amino acids with a predicted molecular weight of 58.4 kDa. The S. pombe Reb1p is unusual in that the bipartite DNA binding motif identified originally in S.cerevisiae and Klyveromyces lactis REB1 proteins is uninterrupted and thus S.pombe Reb1p may contain the smallest natural REB1 homologous DNA binding domain. Its genomic coding sequences were shown to be interrupted by two introns. A recombinant histidine-tagged Reb1 protein bearing the rDNA binding domain has two homologous, sequence-specific binding sites in the S. pomber DNA intergenic spacer, located between 289 and 480 nt downstream of the end of the approximately 25S rRNA coding sequences. Each binding site is 13-14 bp downstream of two of the three proposed in vivo termination sites. The core of this 17 bp site, AGGTAAGGGTAATGCAC, is specifically protected by Reb1p in footprinting analysis.

Abstract
We have determined the location of cis-acting elements that are important for the expression of RPO21 and RPO22, genes that encode the two largest subunits of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. A series of 5'-end deletions and nucleotide substitutions in the upstream regions of RPO21 and RPO22 were tested for their effect on the expression of lacZ fusions of these genes. Deletion of sequences from -723 to -693 in RPO21, which disrupted two Reb1p-binding sites and an Abf1p-binding site, resulted in a 10-fold decrease in expression. A T-rich region downstream of these sites was also important for expression. Deletion of sequences from -437 to -392 in the RPO22-upstream, which resulted in a 30-fold decrease in expression, indicated that the Reb1p- and Abf1p-binding sites in this region were important for RPO22 expression, as was a T-rich sequence immediately downstream of these sites. The RPO21 and RPO22 upstream regions were capable of interacting in vitro (gel-mobility-shift assays) with Reb1p and Abf1p. The similarities in the type and organization of elements in the upstream regions of RPO21 and RPO22 suggest that expression of these genes may be regulated coordinately.

Abstract
We have identified two new transcription factor binding sites upstream of the previously defined UAS within the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) gene promoter in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. These sites are bound in vitro by the multifunctional factors Cpf1p and Reb1p. We have generated targeted deletions of Rap1p, Abf1p and Reb1p binding sites in the promoter of the chromosomal copy of the PGK gene. Northern blot analysis confirmed that most PGK promoter activity is mediated through the Rap1p binding site. However, significant effects are also mediated through both the Reb1p and Abf1p sites. In contrast, when the promoter is present on a high-copy-number plasmid, both the Abf1p and Reb1p sites play no role in transcriptional activation. The role of Cpf1p was examined using a cpf1 null strain. Cpf1p was found to have little if any, effect on activation of either the chromosomal or plasmid-borne PGK gene.

Abstract
The 190-base pair (bp) rDNA enhancer within the intergenic spacer sequences of Saccharomyces cerevisiae rRNA cistrons activates synthesis of the 35S-rRNA precursor about 20-fold in vivo (Mestel,, R., Yip, M., Holland, J. P., Wang, E., Kang, J., and Holland, M. J. (1989) Mol. Cell. Biol. 9, 1243-1254). We now report identification and analysis of transcriptional activities mediated by three cis-acting sites within a 90-bp portion of the rDNA enhancer designated the modulator region. In vivo, these sequences mediated termination of transcription by RNA polymerase I and potentiated the activity of the rDNA enhancer element. Two trans-acting factors, REB1 and REB2, bind independently to sites within the modulator region (Morrow, B. E., Johnson, S. P., and Warner, J. R. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 9061-9068). We show that REB2 is identical to the ABF1 protien. Site-directed mutagenesis of REB1 and ABF1 binding sites demonstrated uncoupling of RNA polymerase I-dependent termination from transcriptional activation in vivo. We conclude that REB1 and ABF1 are required for RNA polymerase I-dependent termination and enhancer function, respectively, Since REB1 and ABF1 proteins also regulate expression of class II genes and other nuclear functions, our results suggest further similarities between RNA polymerase I and II regulatory mechanisms. Two rDNA enhancers flanking a rDNA minigene stimulated RNA polymerase I transcription in a "multiplicative" fashion. Deletion mapping analysis showed that similar cis-acting sequences were required for enhancer function when positioned upstream or downstream from a rDNA minigene.

Abstract
The activity of an upstream repression sequence (URS element) that mediates a 20-fold repression of ENO1 expression in cells grown in a medium containing glucose was characterized. Sequences that are sufficient for orientation-dependent ENO1 URS element activity were mapped between positions -241 and -126 relative to the ENO1 transcriptional initiation site. The ENO1 URS element repressed transcription of the yeast CYC1 gene when positioned between the CYC1 upstream activation sequences (UAS elements) and TATAAA boxes. The ENO1 URS element failed to repress transcription of the wild-type yeast enolase gene ENO2; however, expression of an ENO2 gene lacking one of the ENO2 UAS elements was efficiently repressed by the ENO1 URS element, suggesting that the URS element interferes with the transcriptional activation by some, but not all, UAS elements. In contrast to the ENO1 gene, the ENO1 URS element repressed CYC1 and ENO2 expression in cells grown on glucose or glycerol plus lactate. Evidence is presented that the ENO1 URS element also functions during stationary growth phase.

Abstract
A DNA clone containing a putative enolase gene was isolated from a genomic DNA library of the anaerobic fungus Neocallimastix frontalis. It was deduced from sequence comparisons that the enolase gene was interrupted by a large 331 bp intron. The enolase gene, termed enol, has an ORF of 1308 bp and encodes a predicted 436 amino acid protein. The deduced amino acid sequence shows high identity (71.5-71%) to those of enolases from the yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Candida albicans. The G+C content of the enolase coding sequence (43.8 mol%) is considerably higher than the G+C content of the intervening sequence (14.2 mol%) or the 5' and 3' non-translated flanking sequences (15.2 and 4.7 mol%, respectively). The codon usage of the N. frontalis enolase gene was very biased as has been found for the highly expressed genes of yeast and filamentous fungi. The gene has all the canonical features (polyadenylation signal, intron splicing boundaries) of genes isolated from aerobic filamentous fungi. Only one enolase gene could be detected in N. frontalis genomic DNA by Southern analysis with a homologous probe. RNA analysis detected a single enolase transcript of about 1.6 kb. When mycelium was grown on glucose, levels of enolase mRNA were markedly increased by comparison with enolase mRNA levels in mycelium grown on cellulose, suggesting that expression of the N. frontalis enolase gene was transcriptionally regulated by the carbon source.
