The Mgs1/WRNIP1 ATPase is required to prevent a recombination salvage pathway at damaged replication forks

ABSTRACT: DNA damage tolerance (DDT) is crucial for genome integrity maintenance. DDT is mainly carried out by template switch recombination, an error-free mode of overcoming DNA lesions, or translesion DNA synthesis, which is error-prone. Here we investigated the role of Mgs1/WRNIP1 in modulating DDT. Using budding yeast, we found that elimination of Mgs1 in cells lacking Rad5, an essential protein for DDT, activates an alternative mode of DNA damage bypass, driven by recombination, that allows chromosome replication and cell viability under stress conditions that block DNA replication forks. This salvage pathway is RAD52- and RAD59-dependent, requires the DNA polymerase and PCNA-modification at K164, and is enabled by Esc2 and the PCNA-unloader Elg1, being inhibited when Mgs1 is present. We propose that Mgs1 is necessary to prevent a potentially toxic recombination salvage pathway at sites of perturbed replication, which in turn favors Rad5-dependent template switching, thus helping to preserve genome stability.

DNA bending facilitates the error-free DNA damage tolerance pathway and upholds genome integrity

Project description:DNA replication is sensitive to damage in the template. To bypass lesions and complete replication, cells activate recombination-mediated (error-free) and translesion synthesis-mediated (error-prone) DNA damage tolerance pathways. Crucial for error-free DNA damage tolerance is template switching, which depends on the formation and resolution of damage-bypass intermediates consisting of sister chromatid junctions. Here we show that a chromatin architectural pathway involving the high mobility group box protein Hmo1 channels replication-associated lesions into the error-free DNA damage tolerance pathway mediated by Rad5 and PCNA polyubiquitylation, while preventing mutagenic bypass and toxic recombination. In the process of template switching, Hmo1 also promotes sister chromatid junction formation predominantly during replication. Its C-terminal tail, implicated in chromatin bending, facilitates the formation of catenations/hemicatenations and mediates the roles of Hmo1 in DNA damage tolerance pathway choice and sister chromatid junction formation. Together, the results suggest that replication-associated topological changes involving the molecular DNA bender, Hmo1, set the stage for dedicated repair reactions that limit errors during replication and impact on genome stability.

Asymmetric down-regulation of tolerance to DNA damage at replication forks

Project description:The tolerance pathway allows bypassing deleterious lesions that block replicative DNA polymerases. In eukaryotes tolerance is controlled by ubiquitylation of the DNA replication factor PCNA4. Here, we show that PCNAK164-ubiquitin proteases (PCNA-DUBs) Ubp10 and Ubp12 localise to replication forks. In particular, the main PCNA-DUB, Ubp10, associates primarily to nascent lagging strands. We also found that cells deficient for PCNA deubiquitylation show both increased interaction of TLS polymerase ζ-associated Rev1 with lagging strands and Rad52-dependent template switching events. This evidence reveals a fork-coupled layer of DDT regulation allowing strand-specific pathway choices.

Multifaceted down-regulation of the Srs2 helicase by the SUMO-like domain protein Esc2 promotes local recombination at sites of stalled replication

Project description:The SUMO-like domains-containing family of proteins to which Saccharomyces cerevisiae Esc2 belongs facilitates DNA damage tolerance (DDT) via elusive mechanisms. Here we report that Esc2 promotes recombination-mediated DDT by engaging in functional and physical interactions with Srs2 and Elg1, two readers of SUMOylated PCNA and modulators of DDT. These interactions depend on the SUMO Interacting Motifs of Elg1 and Srs2, and on the SUMO-like domains of Esc2. Mechanistically, Esc2 promotes Elg1 association to damaged and stalled forks and Srs2 turnover. Elg1 limits the levels of SUMOylated PCNA and subsequently of the anti-recombinase Srs2 at damaged sites, upholding local Rad51 binding. In conjunction with the SUMO–targeted ubiquitin ligase Slx5/Slx8, Esc2 also promotes proteasome-mediated Srs2 turnover, a process further enhanced by CDK-mediated Srs2 phosphorylation. Our results provide mechanistic insights into how SUMO- and DNA damage response-regulated pathways intersect to enable local error-free damage-bypass by recombination in the face of genotoxic stress. Proteins ChIP-chip analyses analysis were carried out as described (Bermejo et al., 2009). Labelled probes were hybridized to Affymetrix S.cerevisiae Tiling 1.0 (P/N 900645) arrays and processed with TAS software.

BRCA1/BARD1 ubiquitinates PCNA in unperturbed conditions to promote continuous DNA synthesis.

Project description:Deficiencies in the BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene are the main cause of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer. BRCA1 is involved in the Homologous Recombination DNA repair pathway, and, together with BARD1, forms a heterodimer with ubiquitin E3 activity. The relevance of the BRCA1/BARD1 ubiquitin E3 activity for tumor suppression and DNA repair remains controversial and most efforts aimed to identify BRCA1/BARD1 ubiquitination substrates rely on indirect evidence. Here, we observed that the BRCA1/BARD1 ubiquitin E3 activity was not required for Homologous Recombination or resistance to Olaparib. Using TULIP2 methodology, which enables the direct identification of E3-specific ubiquitination substrates, we identified substrates for BRCA1/BARD1. We found that PCNA is ubiquitinated by BRCA1/BARD1 in unperturbed conditions independently of RAD18. PCNA ubiquitination by BRCA1/BARD1 avoids the formation of ssDNA gaps during DNA replication and promotes continuous DNA synthesis. These results address the controversy about the function of BRCA1/BARD1 E3 activity in Homologous Recombination.

The Pif1 helicase is actively inhibited during meiotic recombination to prevent excess length of gene conversions

Project description:Meiotic recombination ensures proper chromosome segregation to form viable gametes and results in gene conversion events between homologs. Conversion tracts are shorter in meiosis than in mitotically dividing cells. This results at least in part from the binding of a complex, formed of the Mer3 helicase and the MutL heterodimer, to meiotic recombination intermediates. The molecular actors inhibited by this complex are elusive. The Pif1 DNA helicase is known to stimulate DNA polymerase delta (Pol δ) -mediated DNA synthesis from D-loops in vitro, allowing long synthesis required for break-induced replication. We show that Pif1 is recruited genome wide to meiotic double-strand break (DSB) sites. We further show that Pif1, through its interaction with PCNA, is required for the long gene conversions observed in the absence of MutL recruitment to recombination sites. in vivo, Mer3 interacts with the PCNA clamp loader RFC, and in vitro, Mer3-MutL ensemble inhibits Pif1-stimulated D-loop extension by Pol δ and RFC-PCNA. Mechanistically, our results suggest that Mer3-MutL may compete with Pif1 for binding to RFC-PCNA. Taken together, our data show that Pif1’s activity to promote meiotic recombination-related DNA synthesis is restrained by the Mer3-MutL ensemble to prevent long gene conversion events and possibly associated mutagenesis.

The E3 ubiquitin ligase RFWD3 is required for translesion DNA synthesis (total proteome)

Project description:Lesions on DNA can uncouple DNA synthesis from helicase unwinding, generating stretches of unreplicated single stranded DNA (ssDNA) behind the replication fork. These ssDNA gaps need to be filled in to complete DNA duplication and thereby avoid the generation of DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs), a major source of genomic instability. Gap filling repair involves either translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) or template switching (TS) to bypass the lesion. At the heart of these processes, ubiquitylated PCNA recruits many proteins that dictate pathway choice, but the enzymes regulating PCNA ubiquitylation in vertebrates remain poorly defined. Here we report that the E3 ubiquitin ligase RFWD3 promotes non-specific ubiquitylation of proteins on ssDNA, to enhance protein accumulation and stimulate gap filling repair. The absence of RFWD3 leads to a profound defect in recruitment of key repair and signaling factors to damaged chromatin, including ubiquitin and proteins known to ubiquitylate and interact with ubiquitylated PCNA. As a result, PCNA ubiquitylation is severely inhibited without RFWD3, and TLS across different DNA lesions drastically impaired. We propose that RFWD3 is an essential coordinator of the response to ssDNA gaps, where it triggers non-specific ubiquitylation to drive recruitment of effectors of PCNA ubiquitylation and DNA damage bypass.

The NuA4 complex promotes Translesion Synthesis (TLS) - mediated DNA damage tolerance

Project description:DNA lesions can block a replication fork, leading to its collapse and gross chromosomal rearrangements. To circumvent such outcomes, DNA damage tolerance (DDT) pathways become engaged, allowing the replisome to bypass the lesion and complete S phase in the presence of unrepaired damage. Here we demonstrate a newly identified role for NuA4, including complex components Esa1 and Yng2, on the Translesion Synthesis (TLS) branch of DDT. Moreover, Our data suggest that NuA4 functionality within the tolerance pathway is likely direct as genome-wide transcriptional analysis with esa1-L254P mutants showed little changes in the expression of TLS factors compared to wild type during MMS treatment. When Yng2 expression is restricted to G2/M, cell viability and mutagenesis rates are restored to the levels measured when only the error-free branch of DDT is disrupted, indicating that the critical role of NuA4 in TLS functions in G2, after chromosomal replication is complete. Lastly, disruption of HTZ1, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae histone variant H2A.Z and target of NuA4, exhibits mutagenic rates of reversion that are comparable to the levels measured with NuA4 complex mutants, esa1-L254P and yng2Δ.
