Fork Pausing Complex Engages Topoisomerases at the Replisome

ABSTRACT: Replication forks temporarily or terminally pause at hundreds of hard-to-replicate regions around the genome. A conserved pair of budding yeast replisome components Tof1-Csm3 (fission yeast Swi1-Swi3 and human TIMELESS-TIPIN) acts as a ‘molecular brake’ and promotes fork slowdown at proteinaceous replication fork barriers (RFBs), while the accessory helicase Rrm3 assists the replisome in removing protein obstacles. Here we show that Tof1-Csm3 complex promotes fork pausing independently of Rrm3 helicase by recruiting topoisomerase I (Top1) to the replisome. Topoisomerase II (Top2) partially compensates for the pausing decrease in cells when Top1 is lost from the replisome. The C-terminus of Tof1 is specifically required for Top1 recruitment to the replisome and fork pausing but not for DNA replication checkpoint (DRC) activation. We propose that forks pause at proteinaceous RFBs through a ‘sTOP’ mechanism (‘slowing down with TOPoisomerases I-II’), which we show also contributes to protecting cells from topoisomerase-blocking agents.

Rad53-mediated regulation of Rrm3 and Pif1 DNA helicases contributes to prevention of aberrant fork transitions under replication stress.

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.

Separable functions of Tof1/Timeless in intra-S-checkpoint signalling, replisome stability and DNA topological stress

Project description:The highly conserved Tof1/Timeless proteins minimise replication stress and promote normal DNA replication. They are required to mediate the DNA replication checkpoint (DRC), the stable pausing of forks at protein fork blocks, the coupling of DNA helicase and polymerase functions during replication stress (RS) and the preferential resolution of DNA topological stress ahead of the fork. Here we demonstrate that the roles of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Timeless protein Tof1 in DRC signalling and resolution of DNA topological stress require distinct N and C terminal regions of the protein, whereas the other functions of Tof1 are closely linked to the stable interaction between Tof1 and its constitutive binding partner Csm3/Tipin. By separating the role of Tof1 in DRC from fork stabilisation and coupling, we show that Tof1 has distinct activities in checkpoint activation and replisome stability to ensure the viable completion of DNA replication following replication stress.

Sen1 and Rrm3 ensure permissive topological conditions for replication termination [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Replication forks terminate at TERs and telomeres. Forks that converge or encounter transcription generate topological stress. Combining genetic, genomic and imaging approaches we found that Rrm3hPif1 and Sen1hSenataxin helicases assist termination at TERs, Sen1 at telomeres. rrm3 and sen1 are synthetic lethal, fail to terminate replication exhibiting lagging chromosomes and fragility at TERs and telomeres. sen1 rrm3 build up RNA-DNA hybrids at TERs, sen1 accumulates RNPII at TERs and telomeres. Double mutants exhibit X-shaped gapped or reversed converging forks. Rrm3 and Sen1 restrain Top1 and Top2 activities, preventing toxic accumulation of positive supercoil at TERs and telomeres. We suggest that Rrm3 and Sen1 coordinate the activities of fork-associated Top1 and Top2 with those of gene loop-associated Top1 and Top2 by preventing DNA and RNA polymerases slowing down when forks encounter transcription head-on or codirectionally, respectively. Hence Rrm3 and Sen1 are essential to generate permissive topological conditions for replication termination.

Replication termination is mediated by Top2 and occurs at genomic loci containing pausing elements

Project description:[original title] Chromosome replication initiates at multiple replicons and terminates when forks converge. In Escherichia coli, the Tus-TER complex mediates polar fork converging at the terminator region and aberrant termination events challenge chromosome integrity and segregation. Since in eukaryotes termination is less characterized, we used budding yeast to identify the factors assisting fork fusion at replicating chromosomes. Using genomic and mechanistic studies we have identified and characterized 71 chromosomal termination regions (TERs). TERs contain fork pausing elements that influence fork progression and merging. The Rrm3 DNA helicase assists fork progression across TERs counteracting the accumulation of X-shaped structures. The Top2 DNA topoisomerase associates at TERs in S-phase and G2/M facilitates fork fusion and prevents DNA breaks and genome rearrangements at TERs. We propose that in eukaryotes replication fork barriers, Rrm3 and Top2 coordinate replication fork progression and fusion at termination regions thus counteracting abnormal genomic transitions.

Cohesion is established during DNA replication utilising chromosome associated cohesin rings as well as those loaded de novo onto nascent DNAs

Project description:Cohesin is established by two parallel pathways during DNA replication. Chromosome associated cohesin is converted to cohesive structures and this depends on four protein associated with the replisome; Tof1/Csm3, Ctf4 and Chl1 (TCCC). In TCCC mutants, chromosome associated cohesin is evicted from the DNA during S phase.

Mapping Replication Fork Pause Sites in S. cerevisiae

Project description:Replication forks face multiple obstacles that slow their progression. By two-dimensional gel analysis, yeast forks pause at stable DNA protein complexes, and this pausing is greatly increased in the absence of the Rrm3 helicase. We used a genome wide approach to identify 96 sites of very high DNA polymerase binding in wild type cells. Most of these binding sites were not previously identified pause sites. Rather, the most highly represented genomic category among high DNA polymerase binding sites was the open reading frames (ORFs) of highly transcribed RNA polymerase II genes. Twice as many pause sites were identified in rrm3 compared to wild type cells as pausing in this strain occurred at both highly transcribed RNA polymerase II genes and the previously identified protein DNA complexes. ORFs of highly transcribed RNA polymerase II genes are the first class of natural pause sites that are not exacerbated in rrm3 cells. We alse mapped pause sites using a second replication fork component, Rrm3-13MYC and got similar results. Genomic input (labelled with Cy3) and IP'ed DNA (labelled with Cy5) using a MYC Ab of either DNA Pol2-13MYC or Rrm3-MYC from asynchronously grown S. cerevisiae cells in rich media were hybridized to whole-genome PCR-based arrays containing ORF and intergenic regions of the entire genome (Ivery et al 2001). At least three biological replication and one technical replicate (dye swap) were performed. Log2 transformed median normalized ratios (IP/IN) were averaged for each experiment and significant peaks of either DNA Pol2 or Rrm3 association were identified

The Fork Protection Complex protects long replicons from DNA damage at the cost of genome instability induced by DNA topological stress [TrAEL-seq]

Project description:Tof1/Timeless, protects eukaryotic cells from DNA replication stress as part of the Fork Protection Complex (FPC). Tof1 supports rapid DNA replication, fork pausing, and resolution of DNA topological stress. Here, we show that disruption of FPC function through loss of either Tof1 or Mrc1 results in DNA damage in long replicons. Despite increasing DNA damage in long replicons, loss of either Tof1 or Mrc1 concurrently reduces DNA damage in regions prone to damage caused by DNA topological stress, indicating that the rapid replication promoted by the FPC fosters completing DNA replication at the cost of increased vulnerability to DNA topological stress. Supporting this we find that a tof1 mutation that selectively inhibits DNA topological stress resolution increases DNA damage in contexts prone to DNA topological stress. Our data indicates that the FPC balances rapid replication with recruitment of topoisomerase I to resolve the topological stress generated by increased DNA unwinding.
