Extensive tracts of the mammalian genome that lack protein-coding function are still transcribed into long noncoding RNA. While these lncRNAs are generally short lived, length restricted, and non-polyadenylated, how their expression is distinguished from protein-coding genes remains enigmatic. Surprisingly, depletion of the ubiquitous Pol-II-associated transcription elongation factor SPT6 promotes a redistribution of H3K36me3 histone marks from active protein coding to lncRNA genes, which correlates with increased lncRNA transcription. SPT6 knockdown also impairs the recruitment of the Integrator complex to chromatin, which results in a transcriptional termination defect for lncRNA genes. This leads to the formation of extended, polyadenylated lncRNAs that are both chromatin restricted and form increased levels of RNA:DNA hybrid (R-loops) that are associated with DNA damage. Additionally, these deregulated lncRNAs overlap with DNA replication origins leading to localized DNA replication stress and a cellular senescence phenotype. Overall, our results underline the importance of restricting lncRNA expression. SPT6 promotes the selective distribution of H3K36me3 over protein-coding genes SPT6 loss leads to formation of extended lncRNAs that are prone to R-loop formation Deregulated Pol II collides with DNA replisomes on lncRNA genes Collision between Pol II and DNA replisome leads to cellular senescence Nojima and colleagues demonstrate that loss of human SPT6 protein elevates levels of noncoding transcription and perturbs its termination. The deregulated noncoding transcription increases R-loop formation with consequent DNA damage, transcription-replication collision, and cellular senescence. This implies that noncoding transcription is restricted to avoid such conflicts in proliferating cells.
