Chromatin-based mechanisms to coordinate convergent overlapping transcription

Abstract: In eukaryotic genomes, transcription units of genes often overlap with other proteincoding and/or noncoding transcription units 1,2 . In such intertwined genomes, coordinated transcription of nearby or overlapping genes would be important to ensure integrity of genome function; however, the mechanisms underlying this coordination are largely unknown [3][4][5][6] . Here, we show in Arabidopsis thaliana that genes with convergent orientation of transcription are major sources of overlapping bidirectional transcr… Show more

“…The results of previous studies might reflect indirect effects triggered by altered transcription and/or minor locus-specific effects. Our conclusion is also supported by the results showing that ATX1/2/R7 redundantly repress flowering via FLC activation and that ATXR7 and FLD counteract each other in FLC regulation, probably by modulating H3K4me1 14, 25, 45 .…”

“…ATXR7 seems to cooperate with the transcriptional machinery, while ATX1 and ATX2 seem to target genes in a manner that is informed by chromatin modifications, regardless of the abundance of the transcriptional machinery. Interestingly, many genes occupied by ATXR7 are also bound by the H3K4me1 demethylase FLD ( 14 , Supplementary Fig. 7a, b).…”
