Project description:Biological cells replicate their genomes in a well-planned manner. The DNA replication program of an organism determines the timing at which different genomic regions are replicated, with fundamental consequences for cell homeostasis and genome stability. In a growing cell culture, genomic regions that are replicated early should be more abundant than regions that are replicated late. This abundance pattern can be experimentally measured using deep sequencing. However, a general quantitative theory linking this pattern to the replication program is still lacking. In this paper, we predict the abundance of DNA fragments in asynchronously growing cultures from any given stochastic model of the DNA replication program. As key examples, we present stochastic models of the DNA replication programs in budding yeast and Escherichia coli. In both cases, our model results are in excellent agreement with experimental data and permit to infer key information about the replication program. In particular, our method is able to infer the locations of known replication origins in budding yeast with high accuracy. These examples demonstrate that our method can provide insight into a broad range of organisms, from bacteria to eukaryotes.

Project description:DNA polymerase epsilon (Pol epsilon) plays multiple roles in genome duplication and its catalytic subunit POLE suppresses tumorigenesis in humans. Despite its importance, we have limited understanding of Pol epsilon functional mechanisms and how its loss-of-function affects the evolution of cancer genomes. To address this issue, we used the budding yeast ortholog Pol2 to model cancer-associated POLE mutations that affect an uncharacterized yet highly conserved Pol2/POLE family-specific region. Analysis of pol2 mutants revealed an unexpected role for this region in the incorporation of Pol epsilon into the pre-loading complex during replisome assembly. Cellular and reconstitution experiments further identified a separate role for this region in promoting Pol epsilon polymerase activity. Unlike previously reported POLE mutations leading to hypermutation in cancer cells, the examined pol2 variants increase gross chromosomal rearrangements but not mutation rates. Our findings thus suggest that the Pol epsilon catalytic core integrates replisome assembly and DNA polymerization functions and that POLE tumor suppressive roles likely extend beyond limiting replication errors.

Project description:UnlabelledMany viruses replicate most efficiently in specific phases of the cell cycle, establishing or exploiting favorable conditions for viral replication, although little is known about the relationship between caliciviruses and the cell cycle. Microarray and Western blot analysis of murine norovirus 1 (MNV-1)-infected cells showed changes in cyclin transcript and protein levels indicative of a G1 phase arrest. Cell cycle analysis confirmed that MNV-1 infection caused a prolonging of the G1 phase and an accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase. The accumulation in G0/G1 phase was caused by a reduction in cell cycle progression through the G1/S restriction point, with MNV-1-infected cells released from a G1 arrest showing reduced cell cycle progression compared to mock-infected cells. MNV-1 replication was compared in populations of cells synchronized into specific cell cycle phases and in asynchronously growing cells. Cells actively progressing through the G1 phase had a 2-fold or higher increase in virus progeny and capsid protein expression over cells in other phases of the cell cycle or in unsynchronized populations. These findings suggest that MNV-1 infection leads to prolonging of the G1 phase and a reduction in S phase entry in host cells, establishing favorable conditions for viral protein production and viral replication. There is limited information on the interactions between noroviruses and the cell cycle, and this observation of increased replication in the G1 phase may be representative of other members of the Caliciviridae.ImportanceNoroviruses have proven recalcitrant to growth in cell culture, limiting our understanding of the interaction between these viruses and the infected cell. In this study, we used the cell-culturable MNV-1 to show that infection of murine macrophages affects the G1/S cell cycle phase transition, leading to an arrest in cell cycle progression and an accumulation of cells in the G0/G1 phase. Furthermore, we show that MNV replication is enhanced in the G1 phase compared to other stages of the cell cycle. Manipulating the cell cycle or adapting to cell cycle responses of the host cell is a mechanism to enhance virus replication. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a norovirus interacting with the host cell cycle and exploiting the favorable conditions of the G0/G1 phase for RNA virus replication.

Project description:Yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been widely used as a model system for studying genome instability. Here, a heterozygous diploid S. cerevisiae strain DZP2 was generated to determine the genomic alterations induced by DNA polymerase ε. The expression of POL2 was regulated by the GAL1 promoter. In combination of a custom SNP microarray, the patterns of chromosomal instability induced by low Pol ε could be explored at a whole genome level in DZP2. Using this system, we found hundreds-fold higher rate of genomic alterations, including aneuploidy, loss of heterozygosity (LOH), and chromosomal rearrangement. DNA polymerase ε (Pol ε) is one of the three replicative eukaryotic DNA polymerases. Pol ε deficiency leads to genomic instability and multiple human diseases. Here, we explored global genomic alterations in yeast strains with reduced expression of POL2, the gene that encodes the catalytic subunit of Pol ε. Using whole-genome SNP microarray and sequencing, we found that low levels of Pol ε elevated the rates of mitotic recombination and chromosomal aneuploidy by two orders of magnitude. Strikingly, low levels of Pol ε resulted in a contraction of the number of repeats in the rDNA cluster and reduced the length of telomeres. These short telomeres led to an elevated frequency of break-induced replication, resulting in terminal loss of heterozygosity. In addition, low levels of Pol ε increased the rate of single-base mutations by 13-fold by a Pol ζ-dependent pathway. Finally, the patterns of genomic alterations caused by low levels of Pol ε were different from those observed in strains with low levels of the other replicative DNA polymerases Pol α and Pol δ, providing further insights into the different roles of the B-family DNA polymerases in maintaining genomic stability.
