Genome wide identification of replication fork stalling/pausing sites and the interplay between RNA Pol II transcription and DNA replication progression

ABSTRACT: DNA replication progression can be affected by the presence of physical barriers on the DNA, like RNA Polymerases, leading to replication stress and DNA damage. To characterize what happens at sites where DNA replication forks stall and pause, we establish a genome-wide approach to identify them. This approach uses multiple timepoints during S-phase, to identify replication fork/stalling hotspots throughout the genome. These sites are typically associated with increased DNA damage, overlap with fragile sites and with breakpoints of rearrangements identified in cancers, but do not overlap with replication origins. Overlaying these sites with a genome-wide analysis of RNA Polymerase II transcription, we found that replication fork stalling/pausing sites inside genes are directly related to transcription progression and activity. This would support data that indicate that transcription and replication can coexist over the same regions. We found instances where transcription activity by reducing histone density favors replication progression through genes, but also found that slowing down transcription elongation slows down directly replication progression through genes. Importantly, rearrangements found in cancers at transcription-replication collision sites can be detected in non-transformed cells and increased following treatment with ATM and ATR inhibitors. Altogether, our findings highlight how transcription and replication overlap during S-phase, with both positive and negative consequences for replication fork progression and genome stability.

Genomewide identification of replication fork stalling/pausing sites and the interplay between RNA Pol II transcription and DNA replication progression

Project description:DNA replication progression can be affected by the presence of physical barriers on the DNA, like the RNA Polymerases, leading to replication stress and DNA damage. Nonetheless, we do not know the overall influence of transcription on DNA replication progression. To characterize what happens at sites where DNA replication forks stall and pause, we establish a genome-wide approach to identify them. This approach uses multiple timepoints to identify replication fork/stalling hotspots as the replication progresses through the genome. These sites are typically associated with increased DNA damage, overlap with fragile sites and with breakpoints of rearrangements identified in cancers, but do not overlap with replication origins. Overlaying these sites with a genome-wide analysis of RNA Polymerase II transcription, we find that replication fork stalling/pausing sites inside genes are directly related to transcription progression and activity. We also find instances where transcription activity favors replication progression because reduces histone density, but also that slowing down transcription elongation slows down directly replication progression through genes. This would indicate that transcription and replication can coexist over the same regions. Importantly, rearrangements found in cancers overlapping transcription-replication collision sites are detected in non-transformed cells and increase following treatment with ATM and ATR inhibitors. Altogether, our findings highlight how transcription and replication overlap during S-phase, with both positive and negative consequences for replication fork progression and genome stability by the coexistence of these two processes.

Metalloprotease SPRTN/DVC1 Orchestrates Replication-Coupled DNA-Protein Crosslink Removal

Project description:Cytotoxicity of DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) is ascribed largely to their ability to block the progression of DNA replication fork. DPCs are frequently occurring in cells, either as a consequence of metabolism or exogenous agents. The mechanism of DPCs removal is not completely understood. Here, we characterize SPRTN (DVC1) as specialised DNA-dependent metalloprotease for DPC removal in humans. SPRTN has an N-terminal metalloprotease domain that cleaves various DNA binding substrate during S-phase progression. SPRTN is a part of replisome and removes DPCs during DNA replication fork progression, thus protecting proliferative cells from DPCs toxicity. Ruijs-Aalfs Syndrome (RJALS) patient cells with monogenic mutations in SPRTN are hypersensitive to DPC-inducing agents due to DPC removal defect and DNA replication fork stalling. We propose a model where SPRTN protease forms specialised DNA-replication coupled DPC removal pathway essential for DNA replication fork progression and genome stability. We conclude RJALS is the first human syndrome linked to this pathway

Genome-wide analysis of DNA replication and double strand breaks by TrAEL-seq

Project description:We have designed a methodology for capture of DNA 3’ ends that allows mapping of resected DNA breaks, stalled replication forks and also normal replication fork progression. This Transferase-activated end ligation or TrAEL-seq method involves ligation of a functionalised linker to DNA 3’ ends followed by fragmentation, purification of adaptor ligated fragments, second adaptor ligation and library amplification. The major advantages of TrAEL-seq compared to other available methods are: i) an ability to map double strand breaks after resection, ii) excellent sensitivity and signal-to-noise in detecting replication fork stalling and iii) ability to map replication fork progression in unsynchronised, unlabelled populations of both yeast and mammalian cells. The samples provided here were selected to demonstrate different aspects of TrAEL-seq activity: the SfiI and dmc1 datasets shows capture of 3’ extended single strand DNA. The other yeast datasets show replication and replication fork stalling information. The RAF and RAF-GAL grown yeast samples show the effect transcriptional induction on replication fork progression. The hESC samples show the capacity to derive replication profiles from mammalian cells.

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.

Checkpoint-mediated DNA polymerase e exonuclease activity curbing counteracts resection-driven fork collapse

Project description:DNA polymerase epsilon (Pole) carries out leading strand synthesis with high fidelity owing to its exonuclease activity. Pole polymerase and exonuclease activities are in balance, due to partitioning of nascent strands between catalytic sites, so that net end resection occurs when synthesis is impaired. Stalling of chromosomal DNA synthesis activates replication checkpoint kinases, required to preserve the functional integrity of replication forks. We found that Pole is phosphorylated in a Rad53CHK1-dependent manner upon fork stalling, likely to limit Pole-driven nascent strand resection that causes replication fork collapse. In stress conditions Pole phosphorylation occurs on serine 430 of the Pol2 catalytic subunit. A S430 phosphomimic limits strand partitioning and exonucleolytic processivity, while non-phosphorylatable Pol2-S430A bypasses checkpoint regulation causing stalled fork resection and collapse. We propose that checkpoint kinases switch Pole to an exonuclease-safe mode by curbing active site partitioning thus preventing nascent strand resection and stabilizing stalled replication forks.

Disrupted control of origin activation promotes genomic instability upon loss of POLE4 and disfunction of the TRP53-CDKN1A/P21 tumour suppressor axis.

Project description:The maintenance of genome stability relies on the coordinated control of origin activation and replication fork progression. How the interplay between these processes impacts human genetic disease and cancer remains incompletely characterized. Here we initially show that mouse cells lacking Pole4 and featuring Pole instability exhibit impaired genome-wide activation of DNA replication origins, in a origin location-independent manner. Lack of POLE4 leads to proteasome-dependent Pole degradation prior to CMG (CDC45/MCM2-7/GINS) helicase formation and origin activation. Strikingly, Trp53 ablation in primary Pole4 knock-out cells increased Pole levels and origin activation and reduced DNA damage levels in a transcription-dependent manner. Transcriptome analysis of primary Trp53 knock out cells revealed that the TRP53-CDKN1A/P21 axis maintains appropriate levels of replication initiation factors and CDK activity during unchallenged S-phase. Loss of this control mechanism deregulates origin activation, perturbs genome-wide replication fork progression and induces fork stalling and DNA damage. Thus, while our data support an impaired origin activation model for genetic diseases affecting CMG formation, we propose that loss of the TRP53-CDKN1A/P21 tumour suppressor axis induces inappropriate origin activation and deregulates genome wide fork progression. This phenomenon has broad implications for genetic instability and therapeutic targeting in cancer.

Topoisomerase function in E. coli replication fork movement

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. This study is detailed in Khodursky AB et al.(2000) Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 97:9419-24 Keywords: other
