JMJD3 is essential for RNAPII elongation. (A) Relative mRNA levels of neurogenin 2 in C KD and JMJD3 KD NSCs untreated or treated with TGFβ for the times indicated in the legend. (B, C) ChIP assays analyzed by qPCR performed in C KD and JMJD3 KD NSC lines before (0 h) and after (0.5 and 3 h) TGFβ treatment using total RNAPII (N20; B) or RNAPII-S2p (ab5095; C) antibodies. Analyzed gene regions are indicated in the corresponding scheme. Normalized basal conditions and fold recruitment upon TGFβ treatment in C KD and JMJD3 KD cell lines are represented. (D) Summary of the results. In TGFβ-stimulated C KD cells the transcription machinery is uploaded to the promoters and spreads within the body of genes to generate new mRNA. In TGFβ-stimulated JMJD3 KD cells, the recruitment of RNAPII to promoters occurs to the same extent as in control cells, but the RNAPII progression along the gene bodies is impaired.
