Abstract

The conserved nuclear protein ENY2 (Sus1 in yeast) is involved in coupling transcription and mRNA export in yeast and metazoa, as it is a component both of the transcriptional co-activator complex SAGA and of the mRNA export complex TREX-2. Arabidopsis thaliana ENY2 is widely expressed in the plant and it localizes to the nucleoplasm, but unlike its yeast/metazoan orthologs, it is not enriched in the nuclear envelope. Affinity purification of ENY2 in combination with mass spectrometry revealed that it co-purified with SAGA components, but not with the nuclear pore-associated TREX-2. In addition, further targeted proteomics analyses by reciprocal tagging established the composition of the Arabidopsis SAGA complex consisting of the four modules HATm, SPTm, TAFm and DUBm, and that several SAGA subunits occur in alternative variants. While the HATm, SPTm and TAFm robustly co-purified with each other, the deubiquitination module (DUBm) appears to associate with the other SAGA modules more weakly/dynamically. Consistent with a homology model of the Arabidopsis DUBm, the SGF11 protein interacts directly with ENY2 and UBP22. Plants depleted in the DUBm components, SGF11 or ENY2, are phenotypically only mildly affected, but they contain increased levels of ubiquitinated histone H2B, indicating that the SAGA-DUBm has histone deubiquitination activity in plants. In addition to transcription-related proteins (i.e., transcript elongation factors, Mediator), many splicing factors were found to associate with SAGA, linking the SAGA complex and ongoing transcription with mRNA processing.
