A new pair of B-type cyclins from Saccharomyces cerevisiae that function early in the cell cycle.

ABSTRACT: Two new B-type cyclin genes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, called CLB5 and CLB6, are located in a tail to tail arrangement adjacent to the G2/M phase promoting cyclins CLB2 and CLB1, respectively. These genomic cyclin arrays are flanked by tRNAs and repeated sequences of Ty elements suggesting an intrachromosomal gene duplication followed by an interchromosomal gene duplication. Based on their deduced protein sequence the CLB5 and CLB6 genes form a new pair of B-type cyclins. They are most related to each other and then to the deduced protein sequence of their adjacent genes CLB1 and CLB2. Both genes are periodically expressed, peaking early in the cell cycle. Loss of function mutants are viable, but clb5- mutants exhibit a delay in S phase whereas clb6- mutants show a delay in late G1 and/or S phase. The clb5 mutant phenotype is somewhat more pronounced in a double null mutant. Both cyclins have the potential to interact with the p34CDC28 kinase in vivo.

Among B-type cyclins only CLB5 and CLB6 promote premeiotic S phase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:The Saccharomyces cerevisiae cyclin Clb5 is required for premeiotic S phase, meiotic recombination, and successful progression through meiosis. Clb5 is not essential for mitotic proliferation because Clb1-Clb4 can support DNA replication in clb5 clb6 mutants. Clb1, Clb3, and Clb4 accumulate in clb5 clb6 cells during meiotic differentiation yet fail to promote premeiotic DNA replication. When expressed under the regulation of the CLB5 promoter, Clb1 and Clb3 accumulate and are active in the early stages of meiotic differentiation but cannot induce premeiotic DNA replication, suggesting that they do not target Cdk1 to the necessary substrates. The Clb5 hydrophobic patch (HP) residues are important for Clb5 function but this motif alone does not provide the specificity required for Clb5 to induce premeiotic S phase. Domain exchange experiments demonstrated that the amino terminus of Clb5 when fused to Clb3 confers upon Clb3 the ability to induce premeiotic S phase. Chimeric cyclins containing smaller regions of the Clb5 amino terminus displayed reduced ability to activate premeiotic DNA replication despite being more abundant and having greater associated histone H1 kinase activity than endogenous Clb5. These observations suggest that Clb5 has a unique ability to trigger premeiotic S phase and that the amino-terminal region of Clb5 contributes to its specificity and regulates the functions performed by the cyclin-Cdk complex.

Phenotypic Associations Among Cell Cycle Genes in <i>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</i>.

Project description:A long-standing effort in biology is to precisely define and group phenotypes that characterize a biological process, and the genes that underpin them. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae and other organisms, functional screens have generated rich lists of phenotypes associated with individual genes. However, it is often challenging to identify sets of phenotypes and genes that are most closely associated with a given biological process. Here, we focused on the 166 phenotypes arising from loss-of-function and the 86 phenotypes from gain-of-function mutations in 571 genes currently assigned to cell cycle-related ontologies in S. cerevisiae To reduce this complexity, we applied unbiased, computational approaches of correspondence analysis to identify a minimum set of phenotypic variables that accounts for as much of the variability in the data as possible. Loss-of-function phenotypes can be reduced to 20 dimensions, while gain-of-function ones to 14 dimensions. We also pinpoint the contributions of phenotypes and genes in each set. The approach we describe not only simplifies the categorization of phenotypes associated with cell cycle progression but might also potentially serve as a discovery tool for gene function.

Regulation of Mitotic Exit by Cell Cycle Checkpoints: Lessons From Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:In order to preserve genome integrity and their ploidy, cells must ensure that the duplicated genome has been faithfully replicated and evenly distributed before they complete their division by mitosis. To this end, cells have developed highly elaborated checkpoints that halt mitotic progression when problems in DNA integrity or chromosome segregation arise, providing them with time to fix these issues before advancing further into the cell cycle. Remarkably, exit from mitosis constitutes a key cell cycle transition that is targeted by the main mitotic checkpoints, despite these surveillance mechanisms being activated by specific intracellular signals and acting at different stages of cell division. Focusing primarily on research carried out using Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model organism, the aim of this review is to provide a general overview of the molecular mechanisms by which the major cell cycle checkpoints control mitotic exit and to highlight the importance of the proper regulation of this process for the maintenance of genome stability during the distribution of the duplicated chromosomes between the dividing cells.

In vivo robustness analysis of cell division cycle genes in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:Intracellular biochemical parameters, such as the expression level of gene products, are considered to be optimized so that a biological system, including the parameters, works effectively. Those parameters should have some permissible range so that the systems have robustness against perturbations, such as noise in gene expression. However, little is known about the permissible range in real cells because there has been no experimental technique to test it. In this study, we developed a genetic screening method, named "genetic tug-of-war" (gTOW) that evaluates upper limit copy numbers of genes in a model eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and we applied it for 30 cell-cycle related genes (CDC genes). The experiment provided unique quantitative data that could be used to argue the system-level properties of the cell cycle such as robustness and fragility. The data were used to evaluate the current computational model, and refinements to the model were suggested.

Telomeric protein distributions and remodeling through the cell cycle in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, telomeric DNA is protected by a nonnucleosomal protein complex, tethered by the protein Rap1. Rif and Sir proteins, which interact with Rap1p, are thought to have further interactions with conventional nucleosomic chromatin to create a repressive structure that protects the chromosome end. We showed by microarray analysis that Rif1p association with the chromosome ends extends to subtelomeric regions many kilobases internal to the terminal telomeric repeats and correlates strongly with the previously determined genomic footprints of Rap1p and the Sir2-4 proteins in these regions. Although the end-protection function of telomeres is essential for genomic stability, telomeric DNA must also be copied by the conventional DNA replication machinery and replenished by telomerase, suggesting that transient remodeling of the telomeric chromatin might result in distinct protein complexes at different stages of the cell cycle. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation, we monitored the association of Rap1p, Rif1p, Rif2p, and the protein component of telomerase, Est2p, with telomeric DNA through the cell cycle. We provide evidence for dynamic remodeling of these components at telomeres.

Multiple A-type cyclins express sequentially during the cell cycle in Nicotiana tabacum BY2 cells.

Project description:Four full-length and one partial cDNA clones encoding four different A-type cyclins were isolated from a tobacco S-phase-specific library. The corresponding mRNAs displayed sequential appearance and disappearance during the cell cycle of highly synchronized suspension-cultured tobacco cells. Sequence analysis showed that the plant A-type cyclins can be subdivided into three distinct structural groups that are likely to be represented in every plant species. Two of the isolated tobacco cyclins belonging to the same group were highly expressed throughout S and G2 phases but showed different kinetics of induction at the G1/S transition. Another one belonging to a second group was induced at mid-S phase and expressed until mid-M phase. A similar expression pattern was previously reported for a tobacco cyclin belonging to the third group. This sequential expression of multiple A-type cyclins in one type of plant cells makes a clear distinction from the situation in animal cells in which only one A-type cyclin exists in a given species. Furthermore, the expression of the different A-type cyclin genes responded differently upon a block at mid-S phase by DNA synthesis inhibitors. These results suggest that the multiple A-type cyclins act at different steps of the plant cell cycle and, therefore, exert distinct functions. In contrast, the expression of B-type cyclins was restricted to a narrow window corresponding to the M phase.

Unresolved Recombination Intermediates Cause a RAD9-Dependent Cell Cycle Arrest in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the conserved Sgs1-Top3-Rmi1 helicase-decatenase regulates homologous recombination by limiting accumulation of recombination intermediates that are crossover precursors. In vitro studies have suggested that this may be due to dissolution of double-Holliday junction joint molecules by Sgs1-driven convergent junction migration and Top3-Rmi1 mediated strand decatenation. To ask whether dissolution occurs in vivo, we conditionally depleted Sgs1 and/or Rmi1 during return to growth (RTG), a procedure where recombination intermediates formed during meiosis are resolved when cells resume the mitotic cell cycle. Sgs1 depletion during RTG delayed joint molecule resolution, but, ultimately, most were resolved and cells divided normally. In contrast, Rmi1 depletion resulted in delayed and incomplete joint molecule resolution, and most cells did not divide. rad9 ? mutation restored cell division in Rmi1-depleted cells, indicating that the DNA damage checkpoint caused this cell cycle arrest. Restored cell division in Rmi1-depleted rad9 ? cells frequently produced anucleate cells, consistent with the suggestion that persistent recombination intermediates prevented chromosome segregation. Our findings indicate that Sgs1-Top3-Rmi1 acts in vivo, as it does in vitro, to promote recombination intermediate resolution by dissolution. They also indicate that, in the absence of Top3-Rmi1 activity, unresolved recombination intermediates persist and activate the DNA damage response, which is usually thought to be activated by much earlier DNA damage-associated lesions.
