DNA-loop extruding SMC complexes can traverse one another in vivo

ABSTRACT: Chromosome organization by structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes is vital to living organisms. SMC complexes were recently found to be motors that extrude DNA loops. However, it remains unclear what happens when multiple complexes encounter one another in vivo on the same DNA and how interactions help organize an active genome. We created a crash-course track system to study SMC complex encounters in vivo by engineering the Bacillus subtilis chromosome to have defined SMC loading sites. Chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) analyses of over 20 engineered strains show an amazing variety of never-before-seen chromosome folding patterns. Via 3D polymer simulations and theory, we find that these patterns require SMC complexes to bypass each other in vivo, as recently seen in an in vitro study. We posit that the bypassing activity enables SMC complexes to spatially organize a functional and busy genome.

In vivo evidence for ATPase-dependent DNA translocation by the Bacillus subtilis SMC condensin complex

Project description:Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes shape the genomes of virtually all organisms but how they function remains incompletely understood. Recent studies in bacteria and eukaryotes have led to a unifying model in which these ring-shaped ATPases act along contiguous DNA segments processively enlarging DNA loops. In support of this model, single-molecule imaging experiments indicate that Saccharomyces cerevisiae condensin complexes can extrude DNA loops in an ATP hydrolysis dependent manner in vitro. Here, using time-resolved high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) we investigate the interplay between ATPase activity of the Bacillus subtilis SMC complex and loop formation in vivo. We show that point mutants in the SMC nucleotide binding domain that impair but do not eliminate ATPase activity not only exhibit delays in de novo loop formation but also have reduced rates of processive loop enlargement. These data provide in vivo evidence that SMC complexes function as loop extruders.

SMC translocation is unaffected by an excess of nucleoid associated proteins in vivo

Project description:Genome organization is important for DNA replication, gene expression, and chromosome segregation. In bacteria, two large family of proteins, nucleoid-associated proteins (NAPs) and the SMC complexes, play important roles organizing the genome. NAPs are abundant DNA-binding proteins that can bend, wrap, bridge and compact DNA, while SMC complexes load on the chromosome, translocate on the DNA, and extrude DNA loops. How SMC loop extrusion is influenced by various NAPs remains unknown. In this study, we expressed a collection of representative prokaryotic chromosome-associated proteins in Bacillus subtilis, which introduce distinct DNA structures and pose different challenges for SMC loop extrusion. By fluorescence microscopy and chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments, we observed that these proteins bound to the genome in characteristic manners. Through genome-wide chromosome conformation capture assays, we found that the SMC complex can traverse these DNA-binding proteins without slowing down. Our findings reveal that the DNA loop extrusion activity of the SMC complex is unaffected by the chromosome-associated proteins and highlight the robustness of SMC motors on the busy chromatin.

The ParB clamp docks onto Smc for DNA loading via a joint-ParB interface [ChIP-seq]

Project description:Chromosomes readily unlink from one another and segregate to daughter cells during cell division highlighting a remarkable ability of cells to organize long DNA molecules. SMC complexes mediate chromosome folding by DNA loop extrusion. In most bacteria, SMC complexes start loop extrusion at the ParB/parS partition complex formed near the replication origin. Whether they are recruited by recognizing a specific DNA structure in the partition complex or a protein component is unknown. By replacing genes in Bacillus subtilis with orthologous sequences from Streptococcus pneumoniae, we show that the three subunits of the bacterial Smc complex together with the ParB protein form a functional module that can organize and segregate chromosomes when transplanted into another organism. Using chimeric proteins and chemical cross-linking, we find that ParB binds to the Smc subunit directly. We map a binding interface to the Smc joint and the ParB CTP-binding domain. Structure prediction indicates how the ParB clamp presents DNA to the Smc complex to initiate DNA loop extrusion.

Loop-extruding Smc5/6 organizes transcription-induced positive DNA supercoils [ChIP-seq]

Project description:The Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) protein complexes cohesin, condensin and the Smc5/6 complex (Smc5/6) are essential for chromosome function. At the molecular level, these complexes fold DNA by loop extrusion. Accordingly, cohesin creates chromosome loops in interphase, and condensin compacts mitotic chromosomes. However, the role of Smc5/6’s recently discovered DNA loop extrusion activity is unknown. Here, we uncover that Smc5/6 controls the spatial organization of supercoiled chromosomal regions. The results show that Smc5/6 associates with transcription-induced positively supercoiled chromosomal DNA at cohesin-dependent chromosome loop boundaries. Mechanistically, single-molecule imaging reveals that dimers of Smc5/6 specifically recognize the tip of positively supercoiled DNA plectonemes, and efficiently initiates loop extrusion to gather the supercoiled DNA into a large plectonemic loop. Finally, Hi-C analysis shows that Smc5/6 links chromosomal regions containing transcription-induced positive supercoiling in cis. Altogether, our findings indicate that Smc5/6 controls the three-dimensional organization of chromosomes by recognizing and initiating loop extrusion on positively supercoiled DNA.

A folded conformation of MukBEF and Cohesin

Project description:Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC)-kleisin complexes organize chromosomal DNAs in all domains of life, where they have key roles in chromosome segregation, DNA repair and regulation of gene expression. They function through topological entrapment and active translocation of DNA, but the underlying conformational changes are largely unclear. Using structural biology, mass spectrometry and cross-linking, we investigated the architecture of two evolutionarily distant SMC-kleisin complexes: proteobacterial MukBEF and eukaryotic cohesin. We show that both contain a dynamic coiled-coil discontinuity, the elbow, near the middle of their arms that permits a folded conformation. Bending at the elbow brings into proximity the hinge dimerization domain and the head/kleisin module, situated at opposite ends of the arms. Our findings favor SMC activity models that include a large conformational change in the arms, such as a relative movement between DNA binding sites during DNA loading and translocation
