Supplementary Figure 2A. HXK1 3C controls for WT and mlp1Δ strains.

(A) The following controls were performed for HXK1 MseI 3C on the WT and mlp1Δ strains – (I) Loading control PCR on HXK1 using the amplicon ‘D’ in Fig1A; (II) Positive control for MseI 3C processing on SEN1; (III) 3C negative controls probing promoter-internal fragment interactions (primer combination 1-2) and (IV) promoter-distal fragment interactions (primer combination 1-4) to control for specificity of the gene loop (V) (primers 1-3 as in Fig. 1A). All 3C PCRs were performed alongside a PCR positive control using MseI digested and ligated genomic DNA to control for all possible ligation combinations and primer efficiency.

(B) Controls for GAL1::FMP27 EcoRI 3C – (I) Loading control PCR on GAL1::FMP27; (II) Positive control for EcoRI 3C processing using FMP27 primers 1-2. Negative controls were performed along FMP27, probing promoter-internal fragment interactions (primer combination 1-3) to control for specificity of the gene loop (primers 1-4 as in Fig. 3A). Data is not shown since, as expected, no 3C signals were obtained and these negative controls have been published previously (1). All 3C PCRs were performed alongside a PCR positive control using EcoRI digested and ligated genomic DNA to control for all possible ligation combinations and primer efficiency.

Supplementary Figure 3. sua7-1 re-induction analysis

Induction/re-induction time-course data for sua7-1 and its isogenic wildtype, showing a comparison between induction following long-term (overnight) repression (white bars) and re-induction following short-term (60min.) intervening repression. Consistent with the data in Figure 5C, wildtype shows faster re-induction memory, whereas this memory is absent in the sua7-1 mutant.

Supplementary Figure 4. Analysis of GAL:FMP27 long-term induction kinetics

GAL1:FMP27 RT-PCR analysis showing long-term mRNA induction profile in a WT strain. The top and bottom graphs are similar, except that the bottom graph contains a wider y-axis scale as it includes the additional 5hr and 8hr time-points. It is observed that stable mRNA levels increase greatly between 3hrs and 5hrs, with the ‘memory’ conditions still providing the highest levels. A drop in mRNA levels is observed between 5hrs and 8hrs, indicating possible transcriptional auto-regulation or mRNA stability regulation at these much later time-points.

Supplementary Figure 5. Nup2 deletion has no effect on transcriptional memory.

GAL1::FMP27 RT-qPCR data showing kinetics of Galactose induction and re-induction in wildtype and nup2Δ. Time-points were taken at 1hr (empty box) and 2hrs (grey box) of first-round galactose induction (after overnight growth in glucose) and at 1hr (hashed box) and 2hrs (black box) of second-round galactose re-induction (after an intervening 1hr of glucose repression). The nup2Δ strain shows transcriptional memory effects similar to wildtype, consistent with the 3C data in Fig. 1D showing maintenance of the gene memory-loop in nup2Δ.

Control experiment with ADH1 mRNA normalized to PYK1 transcripts. ADH1 mRNA levels remain largely stable between WT and sua7-1 strains and during glucose/galactose treatments, confirming its reliable use as a normalization control in our experimental conditions for the HXK1 and GAL1:FMP27 RT-qPCR analysis.

Supplementary Figure 7. TBP is maintained at GAL1:FMP27 during 1hr glucose repression in wildtype, but not in mlp1Δ

Anti-TBP ChIP performed on wildtype (WT) and mlp1Δ strains at the GAL1::FMP27 promoter at the time-points of galactose growth (GAL) and a subsequent 60min glucose repression (GLU60’). This latter time-point is that at which memory gene loops and transcriptional memory are maintained in wildtype but not in mlp1Δ. As seen here, TBP is still abundantly present during 1hr glucose repression in wildtype, but decreases in an mlp1Δ mutant strain in which memory is lost.

Supplementary Figure 8A. A difference in Gal1 protein levels is not the cause of the memory loss in mlp1Δ mutants.

Western blot analysis showing Gal1-GFP and Actin (as loading control). Gal1 protein levels are not detectible in the wildtype and mlp1Δ strains, even during the intervening repression time-point of ‘GLU 60’, during which wildtype cells retain memory, but mlp1Δ cells do not. We presume that the 60’ Galactose induction period prior to short term 60’ Glucose repression or longer term 4.5 hrs repression is insufficient time to accumulate Gal1-GFP protein. These results argue for a Mlp1 (and associated gene-loop) specific memory effect, and against a solely cytoplasmic effect of Gal1 in conferring memory (Zacharioudakis et al, 2007).

Left panel is the untagged strain (untag) while right panel shows the fluorescence of Gal1-GFP-tagged yeast grown in galactose overnight (Gal o/n). ii) Histogram of FACS analysis showing mean Gal1-GFP fluorescence values, over 3 biological repeats, at representative time points taken from wild type and mlp1∆ grown continuously in glucose o/n (Glu o/n), washed in water before activating in galactose media for 60 minutes. The strains were then subjected to repression in glucose media for 60 minutes (60’ Glu) and and 4.5 hours (4.5hr Glu). Note that as for the western blot analysis (Supplemenary Figure 8A) no fluorescent cells were detected during the short Glucose repression period (memory) arguing against Gal1-GFP effects in this process.

Western blot control of isogenic wildtype and sua7-1 strains (3 clones each shown here) that were Mlp1-GFP tagged using homologous recombination. The western blot has been probed with α-GFP and α –Actin (loading control). A Gal1-GFP tagged strain was used as a control for the GFP antibody; a Mlp1-GFP strain from Feuerbach et al (2003) was used as a positive control; and an untagged strain was used as a negative control.
