Principle of the method.

(A) Outline of the experimental procedure. Left, the transposon (green) can insert either into non-essential DNA (blue) and give rise to a clone, or into essential DNA (orange), in which case no clone is formed. Right, procedure to identify transposon insertion sites by deep-sequencing. (B) Profile of the transposon density across the whole genome, when the transposon original location is either a centromeric plasmid (top) or the endogenous ADE2 locus on chromosome XV (bottom). The dashed lines indicate the chromosome centromeres. (C) Six examples of genomic regions and their corresponding transposon coverage in seven independent transposon libraries of indicated genotypes. Each vertical grey line represents one transposon insertion event. Genes annotated as essential are shown in orange, others in blue. Green arrowheads indicate the places where the absence of transposon coverage coincides with an essential gene. (D) Histogram of the number of transposons found in every annotated gene (CDS). The vertical dashed line is the median of the distribution. (E) Same as D, with genes categorized as non-essential (blue) and essential (orange) according to previous annotations.

Genome-wide analysis of transposon insertion sites.

(A) Frequency plot of nucleotide composition around transposon insertion site. The strand is determined according to the orientation of the transposon insertion. Plot was calculated with a random sample of 50,000 transposon in the wild-type library 1. Note that GC-content of the yeast genome is 38%. (B) Preferential transposon insertion into internucleosomal DNA. Three genomic regions are shown. For each, the top panel shows the nucleosomal density as determined in (Lee et al., 2007), and the bottom panels show transposon insertion as in Figures 25. (C) Correlation analysis of nucleosome and transposon density. Transposon densities were calculated on the wild-type library 1 by averaging transposon number within a 40 bp moving average. Top, correlation coefficient calculated between the nucleosome and the transposon data offset by the indicated number of bp. The correlation is most negative when offset = 0. The periodicity is ~160 bp. Middle, autocorrelation of transposon data. The periodicity is identical as above. Bottom, autocorrelation of the nucleosome density data. The periodicity is identical as above. (D) Analysis of transposon number relative to distance from centromere. For each chromosome, the number of transposons mapping within a certain distance from their respective centromere was computed and plotted (grey lines). The number of transposons increases linearly with the distance, except in the vicinity of the centromere, where transposon enrichment can be observed. The intercept of the linear regression, computed on the linear part of the plot and multiplied by 16 chromosomes, gives a rough estimate of the numbers of transposons enriched at pericentromeric regions (~20% of the total transposon number).

Detection of essential protein domains.

Top, algorithm to detect essential protein domains. This algorithm is implemented in Source code 2. For each gene, a score is computed as follows: the longest interval between transposon n and transposon n + 5, multiplied by the total number of transposons mapping to that gene, divided by the gene length to the power of 1.5. A score of 0 is assigned to genes targeted by less than 20 transposons, in which the longest interval is smaller than 300 bp, and/or in which the longest interval represents more than 90% or less than 10% of the CDS length. Bottom, yeast genes sorted according to their domain likelihood score. Vertical black bars above the graph indicate previously annotated essential genes.

TAF3 and PRP45 can be truncated without visible effects on cell growth.

(A) A truncation of TAF3 was generated in a heterozygous diploid strain (left) by introduction of an HA tag and a G418-resistance cassette (HA kanr). The strain was tetrad dissected (middle). Tetrads 2 and 3 were further analyzed by PCR to confirm the Mendelian segregation of the truncated allele (right). (B) A complete TAF3 deletion was generated in a heterozygous diploid strain (left) by introduction of a G418-resistance cassette (kanr). Meiosis yields only two viable, G418-sensitive spores per tetrad, confirming that TAF3 complete deletion is lethal. (C–D) As in (A–B) but applied to PRP45. Asterisks in the right panel designate PCR reactions that were inefficient at amplifying the large truncated allele. The genotype of these spores can nevertheless be inferred from the Mendelian segregation of the G418 resistance. (E) Top, cryo-EM structure of the S. cerevisiae spliceosome (PDB accession 5GMK, Wan et al., 2016). Bottom, the same structure stripped of every protein except Prp45. The essential portion of Prp45 as defined in (C) is in green and the non-essential part is in red and yellow. U2, U6, U5 and substrate RNAs are depicted in pale blue, pink, dark blue and orange, respectively. The red circle indicates the catalytic active site of the spliceosome. (F) Alignment of the Human, S. cerevisiae, and S. pombe Prp45 orthologs. The green, red and yellow boxes are colored as in (E). The yellow box features the most conserved region of the protein.

Genetic interaction analyses.

Libraries in panels B, C, E and G are displayed in the same order as in Figure 1C. (A) Comparison of the number of transposons inserted in each of the 6603 yeast CDSs in the wild-type (x-axis) and mmm1Δ VPS13(D716H) (y-axis) libraries. (B) Transposon coverage of genes encoding ERMES components is increased in libraries from strains bearing the VPS13(D716H) allele. (C) Examples of genes showing synthetic sick/lethal interaction with mmm1Δ VPS13(D716H). (D) Comparison of the number of transposons inserted in each of the 6603 yeast CDSs in the wild-type (x-axis) and dpl1Δ (y-axis) libraries. (E) Transposon coverage of the HIP1 locus in the dpl1Δ his3Δ library and in all the other libraries (HIS3). (F) Comparison of the number of transposons inserted in each of the 6603 yeast CDSs in the dpl1Δ (x-axis) and dpl1Δ psd2Δ (y-axis) libraries. (G) Transposon coverage of the PSD1 locus in the dpl1Δ psd2Δ and in all other libraries.

Volcano plots comparing libraries or combinations of libraries as indicated.

The calculated fold-change in transposon density between the two sets of libraries is plotted in log2 scale on the x-axis. The -log10(p-value) (computed using the Student’s t-test) is plotted on the y-axis. (1)The VPS13(D716H) and the mmm1Δ VPS13(D716H) strains were generated in a MET17 background while all other libraries where generated in a met17Δ background. As a result MET17 and the overlapping ORF YLR302C appear as transposon free in the reference set. MET6 is more targeted by transposons in met17Δ libraries, likely because Met17 produces homocysteine, which needs to be converted to methionine by Met6, or might otherwise accumulate to toxic levels. (2)The VPS13(D716H) and mmm1Δ VPS13(D716H) strains were generated in a Matα background, while the others were generated in a Mata background. (3)YGR190C overlaps with HIP1. (4)GPP1 shows synthetic lethality with a recessive Mendelian variant present in the psd2Δ dpl1Δ strain. However, this variant is neither linked to DPL1 nor to PSD2 (data not shown). (5)ERMES component genes scores very high with respect to fold change, because two of the five libraries in the reference set bear the VPS13(D716H) allele. The p-value, by contrast, is not significant.

Synthetic rescue of lethal phenotypes.

(A) Transposon coverage of CDC10 in the seven libraries. The coverage is increased in the dpl1Δ psd2Δ library. (B) Tetrad dissection of a PSD2/psd2Δ DPL1/dpl1Δ CDC10/cdc10Δ triple heterozygote at 30°C (left) and 25°C (right). The cdc10Δ spores of ascertained genotype are circled with a color-coded solid line. cdc10Δ spores for which the genotype can be inferred from the other spores of the tetrad are circled with a color-coded dashed line. (C) Quantification of growing and non-growing cdc10Δ spores of the indicated genotype obtained from 48 tetrads (three independent diploids). (D) Transposon coverage of DNA2 in the seven libraries. The coverage is increased in the YEN1on library. (E) Tetrad dissection of a DNA2/dna2Δ YEN1/YEN1 single heterozygote and of a DNA2/dna2Δ YEN1/YEN1on double heterozygote at 30°C (left) and 25°C (right). All viable dna2Δ spores additionally carry the YEN1on allele (red circle). (F) FACS profile of propidium-iodide-stained DNA content in DNA2 and dna2Δ YEN1on strains exponentially growing at 30°C (left) and 25°C (right). For DNA2 panels, each profile is an overlay of two independent strains. For dna2Δ YEN1on panels, each profile is an overlay of four independent strains.

Detection of rapamycin resistant strains.

(A) Comparison of the number of sequencing reads mapping to each of the 6603 yeast CDSs in rapamycin-untreated (x-axis) and -treated (y-axis) libraries. Note the difference in scale between both axis due to the high representation of rapamycin-resistant clones. (B) Distribution of transposons and number of associated sequencing reads on the PIB2 gene. Transposons with high number of sequencing reads in the rapamycin-treated library are clustered at the 5’-end of the CDS. (C) Wild-type (WT) and pib2Δ strains were transformed with either an empty plasmid (∅) or plasmids encoding full-length (FL) or indicated fragments of Pib2 (see E, numbers refer to the amino acid position in the full-length Pib2 protein). 5-fold serial dilutions of these strains were spotted on YPD or YPD containing 10 ng/ml rapamycin. Centromeric plasmids were used in all strains, except in those denoted with 2 µ, which carried multi-copy plasmids. (D) Strains of the indicated genotypes, transformed with either an empty plasmid (∅) or plasmids encoding full length (pPIB2) or truncated (pPIB2165-635) versions of Pib2, were grown exponentially in minimal medium with proline as nitrogen source. 3 mM glutamine was added to the culture and the cells were harvested 2 min later. Protein extracts were resolved on an SDS-page and probed with antibodies either specific for Sch9-pThr737 (P-Sch9), or for total Sch9 to assess TORC1 activity. (E) Schematic overview of Pib2 architecture and of the fragments used for genetic studies. (F) Summary of yeast-two-hybrid interactions between Pib2 fragments and the TORC1 subunit Kog1 (Figure 6—figure supplement 1). Fragments indicated by a black box interacted with Kog1, fragments indicated by a white box did not. (G) pib2Δ cells expressing the indicated Pib2 fragments from plasmids (see E) were assayed for their sensitivity to rapamycin (2.5 or 5 ng/ml) as in C. (H) WT or pib2Δ cells expressing the indicated Pib2 fragments from plasmids were assayed as in G, except that cells were spotted on synthetic medium to apply a selective pressure for plasmid maintenance.

A) Transposon coverage of the PIB2 gene.

Top row is the rapamycin-treated library and rows below are presented as in Figures 25. The gray scale has been adjusted to account for the large number of sequencing reads mapping in the 5’ region of the gene. (B) Yeast-two-hybrid assay assessing the interaction of the indicated Pib2 fragments encoded on the pCAB plasmid, with full-length Kog1 encoded on the pPR3N plasmid. (C) gtr1Δ gtr2Δ cells expressing indicated, plasmid-encoded Pib2 fragments (see Figure 6E) were assayed for their sensitivity to rapamycin. Note that expressing Pib2Δ533-620 in gtr1Δ gtr2Δ cells appears to inhibit growth even in the absence of rapamycin. (D) gtr1Δ gtr2Δ cells, transformed with centromeric plasmids expressing Pib2 fragments (see Figure 6E) and alleles of Gtr1 and Gtr2 as indicated, were assayed for their sensitivity to rapamycin.

  1. * The harvested library was grown in two flasks, one at 30°C and the other at 37°C. DNA was extracted separately from the two cultures and sequenced in two separate MiSeq runs

  2. † The library was harvested as ten subpools, which were grown in ten separate flasks. DNA was extracted separately. In one case, DNA from all ten subpools was pooled and processed to sequencing in one MiSeq run. In the other case, DNAs were kept separate and processed until the PCR step (1 × 100 µl PCR by subpool). PCR products were pooled and sequenced as another MiSeq run.
