Project description:Regulation of DNA replication and copy number are necessary to promote genome stability and maintain cell and tissue function. DNA replication is regulated temporally in a process known as replication timing (RT). Rif1 is key regulator of RT and has a critical function in copy number control in polyploid cells. In a previous study (Munden et al., 2018), we demonstrated that Rif1 functions with SUUR to inhibit replication fork progression and promote underreplication of specific genomic regions. How Rif1-dependent control of RT factors into its ability to promote underreplication is unknown. By applying a computational approach to measure RT in Drosophila polyploid cells, we show that SUUR and Rif1 have differential roles in controlling underreplication and RT. Our findings reveal that Rif1 functions both upstream and downstream of SUUR to promote underreplication. Our work provides new mechanistic insight into the process of underreplication and its links to RT.

Project description:The asynchronous timing of replication of different chromosome domains is essential for eukaryotic genome stability, but the mechanisms establishing replication timing programs remain incompletely understood. Drosophila SNF2-related factor SUUR imparts under-replication (UR) of late-replicating intercalary heterochromatin (IH) domains in polytene chromosomes. SUUR negatively regulates DNA replication fork progression across IH; however, its mechanism of action remains obscure. Here we developed a novel method termed MS-Enabled Rapid protein Complex Identification (MERCI) to isolate a stable stoichiometric native complex SUMM4 that comprises SUUR and a chromatin boundary protein Mod(Mdg4)-67.2. In vitro, Mod(Mdg4) stimulates the ATPase activity of SUUR, although neither SUUR nor SUMM4 can remodel nucleosomes. Mod(Mdg4)-67.2 and SUUR distribution patterns in vivo partially overlap, and Mod(Mdg4) is required for a normal spatiotemporal distribution of SUUR in chromosomes. SUUR and Mod(Mdg4)-67.2 mediate insulator activities of the gypsy mobile element that disrupt enhancer-promoter interactions and establish euchromatin-heterochromatin barriers in the genome. Furthermore, mutations of SuUR or mod(mdg4) reverse the locus-specific UR. These findings reveal that DNA replication can be delayed by a chromatin barrier and thus, uncover a critical role for architectural proteins in replication timing control. They also provide a biochemical link between ATP-dependent motor factors and the activity of insulators in regulation of gene expression and chromatin partitioning.

Project description:Analysis of topoisomerase function in bacterial replication fork movement: use of DNA microarrays. We used DNA microarrays of the Escherichia coli genome to trace the progression of chromosomal replication forks in synchronized cells. We found that both DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV (topo IV) promote replication fork progression. When both enzymes were inhibited, the replication fork stopped rapidly. The elongation rate with topo IV alone was 1/3 of normal. Genetic data confirmed and extended these results. Inactivation of gyrase alone caused a slow stop of replication. Topo IV activity was sufficient to prevent accumulation of (+) supercoils in plasmid DNA in vivo, suggesting that topo IV can promote replication by removing (+) supercoils in front of the chromosomal fork.

Project description:RIF1 is a multifunctional protein that plays key roles in the regulation of DNA processing. During repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), RIF1 functions in the 53BP1-Shieldin pathway that inhibits resection of DNA ends to modulate the cellular decision on which repair pathway to engage. Under conditions of replication stress, RIF1 protects nascent DNA at stalled replication forks from degradation by the DNA2 nuclease. How these RIF1 activities are regulated at the post-translational level has not yet been elucidated. Here, we identified a cluster of conserved ATM/ATR consensus SQ motifs within the intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of mouse RIF1 that are phosphorylated in proliferating B lymphocytes. We found that phosphorylation of the conserved IDR SQ cluster is dispensable for the inhibition of DSB resection by RIF1, but is essential to counteract DNA2-dependent degradation of nascent DNA at stalled replication forks. Therefore, our study identifies a key molecular feature that enables the genome-protective function of RIF1 during DNA replication stress.

Project description:Background: Chromatin remodeling complexes facilitate the access of enzymes that mediate transcription, replication or repair of DNA by modulating nucleosome position and/or composition. Ino80 is the DNA-dependent Snf2-like ATPase subunit of a complex whose nucleosome remodeling activity requires actin-related proteins, Arp4, Arp5 and Arp8, as well as two RuvB-like DNA helicase subunits. Budding yeast mutants deficient for Ino80 function are not only hypersensitive to reagents that induce DNA double strand breaks, but also to those that impair replication fork progression. Results: To understand why ino80 mutants are sensitive to agents that perturb DNA replication, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation to map the binding sites of the Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex on four budding yeast chromosomes. We found that Ino80 and Arp5 binding sites coincide with origins of DNA replication and tRNA genes. In addition, Ino80 was bound at 67% of the promoters of genes that are sensitive to ino80 mutation. When replication forks were arrested near origins in the presence of hydroxyurea (HU), the presence of the Ino80 complex at stalled forks and at unfired origins increased dramatically. Importantly, the resumption of DNA replication after release from a HU block was impaired in the absence of Ino80 activity. Mutant cells accumulated double-strand breaks as they attempted to restart replication. Consistently, ino80-deficient cells, although proficient for checkpoint activation, delay recovery from the checkpoint response. Conclusions: The Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex is enriched at stalled replication forks where it promotes the resumption of replication upon recovery from fork arrest.

Project description:Replication stress activates the Mec1ATR and Rad53 kinases. Rad53 phosphorylates nuclear pores to counteract gene gating, thus preventing aberrant transitions at forks approaching transcribed genes. Here, we show that Rrm3 and Pif1, DNA helicases assisting fork progression across pausing sites, are detrimental in rad53 mutants experiencing replication stress. Rrm3 and Pif1 ablations rescue cell lethality, chromosome fragmentation, replisome-fork dissociation, fork reversal, and processing in rad53 cells. Through phosphorylation, Rad53 regulates Rrm3 and Pif1; phospho-mimicking rrm3 mutants ameliorate rad53 phenotypes following replication stress without affecting replication across pausing elements under normal conditions. Hence, the Mec1-Rad53 axis protects fork stability by regulating nuclear pores and DNA helicases. We propose that following replication stress, forks stall in an asymmetric conformation by inhibiting Rrm3 and Pif1, thus impeding lagging strand extension and preventing fork reversal; conversely, under unperturbed conditions, the peculiar conformation of forks encountering pausing sites would depend on active Rrm3 and Pif1. BrdU incorporation profiles by ssDNA-BrdU IP on chip have been generated as described (Katou et al., 2003). Protein binding profiles by ChIP-chip analysis were generated as described (Bermejo et al., 2009). Labeled probes were hybridized to Affymetrix S.cerevisiae Tiling 1.0 (P/N 900645) arrays and processed with TAS software.

Project description:During genome replication, the leading strand DNA polymerase conducts continuous synthesis over long stretches of DNA within each replicon. Processive DNA synthesis supports symmetric progression of sister replication forks and efficient genome duplication. To address the mechanisms underlying leading strand polymerase-mediated synthesis, we examine one of its conserved domains, referred to as POPS, in the budding yeast Pol2 enzyme. We provide evidence that POPS supports replication fork symmetry and efficient genome replication via balancing the function of the Pol2 exonuclease domain. We found that the defective growth, slow S phase progression, and impaired genome synthesis associated with a POPS mutation were rescued by abolishing the Pol2 exonuclease activity. The suppressive effects further extended to the increased DNA re-arrangements in the POPS mutant and its negative genetic interactions with mutants of other genome maintenance factors. Significantly, our single molecule replicon-seq data demonstrate that the POPS mutant exhibited genome-wide replication fork asymmetry, and this defect was improved by eliminating the Pol2 exonuclease activity, thus providing a basis for its rescuing of a range of POPS mutant phenotypes. Collectively, these data suggest a model in which balanced activity between a unique Pol2 catalytic domain, and its exonuclease domain facilitates replication fork symmetry and genome maintenance.
