| Title | Cohesin is required for expression of the estrogen receptor-alpha (ESR1) gene |
| Description | In this study we show that depletion of the cohesin subunit SMC3 or the Mediator subunit MED12 significantly impairs the ER-regulated transcriptome. Surprisingly, SMC3 depletion appears to elicit this effect indirectly by rapidly decreasing ESR1 transcription and ER protein levels. Moreover, we provide evidence that both SMC3 and MED12 colocalize on the ESR1 gene and are mutually required for occupancy as well as for transcriptional elongation. Finally, we show that extended proteasome inhibition decreases the mRNA expression of cohesin subunits which accompanies a decrease in ESR1 mRNA and ER protein levels as well as estrogen-regulated transcription. Conclusions: These results identify the ESR1 gene as a cohesin/Mediator-dependent gene and indicate that this regulation may potentially be exploited for the treatment of estrogen-dependent breast cancer. |
