Abstract

Ribosomal DNA (rDNA) repeats harbor ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes and intergenic spacers (IGS). RNA polymerase (Pol) I transcribes rRNA genes yielding rRNA components of ribosomes. IGS-associated Pol II prevents Pol I from excessively synthesizing IGS non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) that can disrupt nucleoli and rRNA production. Here, compartment-enriched proximity-dependent biotin identification (compBioID) revealed the TATA-less-promoter-binding TBPL1 and transcription-regulatory PAF1 with nucleolar Pol II. TBPL1 localizes to TCT motifs, driving Pol II and Pol I and maintaining its baseline ncRNA levels. PAF1 promotes Pol II elongation, preventing unscheduled R-loops that hyper-restrain IGS Pol I-associated ncRNAs. PAF1 or TBPL1 deficiency disrupts nucleolar organization and rRNA biogenesis. In PAF1-deficient cells, repressing unscheduled IGS R-loops rescues nucleolar organization and rRNA production. Depleting IGS Pol I-dependent ncRNAs is sufficient to compromise nucleoli. We present the nucleolar interactome of Pol II and show that its regulation by TBPL1 and PAF1 ensures IGS Pol I ncRNAs maintaining nucleolar structure and function.
