A Top2 and Hmo1-mediated genome architectural pathway preventing chromosome fragility.


ABSTRACT: Specialized topoisomerases solve the topological constraints arising when replication forks encounter transcription. We have investigated Top2 contribution in S phase transcription. Specifically in S phase, Top2 binds intergenic regions close to transcribed genes without influencing their transcription. The Top2-bound loci exhibit low nucleosome density and accumulate yH2A when Top2 is defective. These intergenic loci associate with the HMG-protein Hmo1 throughout the cell cycle and are refractory to the histone variant Htz1. In top2 mutants, Hmo1 is deleterious and accumulates at pericentromeric regions in G2/M. Our data indicate that Top2 is dispensable for transcription and that Hmo1 and Top2 bind in the proximity of genes transcribed in S phase suppressing chromosome fragility at the M-G1 transition. We propose that an Hmo1-dependent epigenetic signature together with Top2 mediate a S-phasen architectural pathway controlling replicon dynamics when forks encounter transcriptionto preserve genome integrity.
