Quantifying DNA replication speeds in single cells by scEdU-seq

ABSTRACT: In a human cell, thousands of replication forks simultaneously coordinate duplication of the entire genome. The rate at which this process occurs might depend on the epigenetic state of the genome and vary between, or even within, cell types. To accurately measure DNA replication speeds, we developed single-cell 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine sequencing to detect nascent replicated DNA. We observed that the DNA replication speed is not constant but increases during S phase of the cell cycle. Using genetic and pharmacological perturbations we were able to alter this acceleration of replication and conclude that DNA damage inflicted by the process of transcription limits the speed of replication during early S phase. In late S phase, during which less-transcribed regions replicate, replication accelerates and approaches its maximum speed.

Embryonic genome instability upon DNA replication timing program emergence

Project description:Faithful DNA replication is essential for genome integrity. Under-replicated DNA leads to chromosome segregation defects, which are reportedly common during embryogenesis. However, DNA replication regulation remains poorly understood in early mammalian embryos. Here, we constructed a single-cell genome-wide DNA replication atlas of pre-implantation mouse embryos and discovered an abrupt replication program switch accompanied by a transient period of genomic instability. In 1- and 2-cell embryos, we observed the complete absence of a replication timing (RT) program, and the entire genome replicated gradually and uniformly using extremely slow-moving forks. In 4-cell embryos, a somatic-cell-like RT program commenced abruptly. However, the fork speed was still slow, S-phase was extended, and SLX4 DNA repair foci increased during G2/M, which was followed by a transient increase in chromosome segregation errors. Importantly, live imaging captured longer S-phase of error cells, and the breakpoints identified by single-cell genome sequencing were enriched in late-replicating regions. By the 8-cell stage, forks gained speed, S-phase was no longer extended, and chromosome aberrations disappeared. Thus, a transient period of genomic instability exists during normal mouse development, which is preceded by a fragile S-phase lacking the coordination between replisome-level regulation and megabase-scale RT regulation, implicating the importance of their coordination for genome integrity.

Differentially regulted genes in neural stem cells treated by oleanolic acid

Project description:Oleanolic acid significantly inhibited neurosphere formation in a dose-dependent manner, and achieved a maximum effect at 10 nM. OA also reduced the 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation into NSCs, indicating an inhibition on proliferation of NSCs. Next, in western blotting analysis, the protein expression of neuron-specific marker tubulin-βⅢ (TuJ1) and Mash1 was increased, while the astrocyte-specific marker glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) decreased. In immunofluorescence analysis, OA significantly elevated the percentage of TuJ1-positive cells and reduced GFAP-positive cells. Using DNA microarrays, 183 genes were found to be differentially regulated by OA.

Acute multi-level response to defective de novo chromatin assembly in S-phase

Project description:Long-term perturbation of de novo chromatin assembly during DNA replication has profound effects on epigenome maintenance and cell fate. The early mechanistic origin of these defects is unknown. Here, we combine acute degradation of Chromatin Assembly Factor 1 (CAF-1), a key player in de novo chromatin assembly, with single-cell genomics, quantitative proteomics, and live-microscopy to uncover these initiating mechanisms in human cells. CAF-1 loss immediately slows down DNA replication speed and renders nascent DNA hyper-accessible. A rapid cellular response, distinct from canonical DNA damage signaling, is triggered and lowers histone mRNAs. As a result, histone variants usage and their modifications are altered, limiting transcriptional fidelity and delaying chromatin maturation within a single S-phase. This multi-level response induces a cell-cycle arrest after mitosis. Our work reveals the immediate consequences of defective de novo chromatin assembly during DNA replication, explaining how at later times the epigenome and cell fate can be altered.

dNTP pools determine fork progression and origin usage under replication stress

Project description:Intracellular levels of deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) must be tightly regulated to preserve genome integrity. Indeed, alterations in dNTP pools have recently been associated with increased mutagenesis, genomic instability and tumorigenesis. However, the mechanisms by which low or imbalanced dNTP pools affect DNA replication remain poorly understood. Here, we have modulated the activity of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), a key enzyme catalyzing a rate-limiting step of dNTP production, to monitor the effect of altered dNTP levels on replication dynamics in budding yeast. We show that dNTP pools are limiting for normal DNA synthesis as upregulation of RNR activity increases replication fork speed. In contrast, inhibition of RNR activity with hydroxyurea (HU) induces a sharp transition from a regular- to a slow-replication mode within minutes after S-phase entry. Interestingly, we found that upregulation of RNR activity delays this transition and that dNTP levels modulate both fork speed and origin usage under replication stress. Moreover, we report that chromosomal instability (CIN) mutants show increased dNTP pools and enhanced DNA synthesis in the presence of HU. Since upregulation of RNR allows forks to progress faster in the presence of DNA lesions, we propose that CIN mutants adapt to chronic replication stress by upregulating dNTP pools.

T cell help controls the speed of the cell cycle in germinal center B cells.

Project description:The germinal center (GC) is a microanatomical compartment wherein high-affinity antibody-producing B cells are selectively expanded. B cells proliferate and mutate their antibody genes in the dark zone (DZ) of the GC and are then selected by T cells in the light zone (LZ) on the basis of affinity. Here, we show that T cell help regulates the speed of cell cycle phase transitions and DNA replication of GC B cells. Genome sequencing and single-molecule analyses revealed that T cell help shortens S phase by regulating replication fork progression while preserving the relative order of replication origin activation. Thus, high-affinity GC B cells are selected by a mechanism that involves prolonged dwell time in the DZ where selected cells undergo accelerated cell cycles.

Unique nascent transcriptomes define naïve, primed and paused embryonic pluripotent states.

Project description:Unique transcriptomes define naïve, primed and paused embryonic pluripotent states. Here we perform calibrated transient transcription sequencing (TT-seq) to de novo define and quantify coding and non-coding transcription units (TUs) in different pluripotent states. We observe a global reduction of RNA synthesis, total RNA amount and turnover rates in ground state (2i) and paused pluripotency (mTORi). We demonstrate that elongation speed can be reliably estimated from TT-seq nascent RNA and RNA Polymerase II occupancy levels, and observe a transcriptome-wide attenuation of elongation speeds in these two inhibitor-induced states. Comparing closely related transcriptional states with different elongation speeds, we also discover a relationship between elongation speed and termination read-through distance. Our analysis suggests that steady-state transcriptomes in mouse ESC cells are controlled predominantly on the level of RNA synthesis and signaling pathways governing different pluripotent states directly control key parameters of transcription.

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
