Dbf4 Zn-finger motif is specifically required for stimulation of Ctf19-activated origins in S. cerevisiae

ABSTRACT: Eukaryotic genomes are replicated in spatiotemporal patterns that are stereotypical for individual genomes and developmental profiles. In the model system S. cerevisiae, two primary mechanisms determine the preferential activation of replication origins during early S phase, thereby largely defining the consequent replication profiles of these cells. Both mechanisms are thought to act through specific recruitment of a rate-limiting initiation factor, Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK), to a subset of licensed replication origins. Fkh1/2 is responsible for stimulation of most early-firing origins, except for centromere (CEN)-proximal origins that recruit DDK via the kinetochore protein Ctf19, which is required for their early-firing. The C-terminus of Dbf4 has been implicated in its recruitment to origins via both the Fkh1/2 and Ctf19 mechanisms. Here, we show that the Zn-finger motif within the C-terminus is specifically required for Dbf4 recruitment to CENs to stimulate CEN-proximal/Ctf19-dependent origins, whereas stimulation of origins via the Fkh1/2 pathway remains largely intact. These findings re-open the question of exactly how Fkh1/2 and DDK act together to stimulate replication origin initiation.

Dbf4 recruitment by forkhead transcription factors defines an upstream rate-limiting step in determining replication origin firing

Project description:Initiation of eukaryotic chromosome replication follows a spatiotemporal program. Current model suggests that replication origins compete for a limited pool of initiation factors. However, it remains to be answered how these limiting factors are preferentially recruited to early origins. Here, we report that Dbf4 is enriched at early origins through its interaction with forkhead transcription factors Fkh1 and Fkh2. This interaction is mediated by Dbf4 C-terminus and was successfully reconstituted in vitro. An interaction defective mutant dbf4ΔC phenocopies fkh alleles in terms of origin firing. Remarkably, genome-wide replication profiles reveal that the direct fusion of the DNA-binding domain of Fkh1 to Dbf4 restores the Fkh-dependent origin firing, but specifically interferes with the pericentromeric origin activation. Furthermore, Dbf4 directly interacts with Sld3 and promotes the recruitment of downstream limiting factors. These data suggest that Fkh1 targets Dbf4 to a subset of non-centromeric origins to promote early replication, in a manner that is reminiscent to the recruitment of Dbf4 to pericentromeric origins by Ctf19.

Origin-Dependent DNA Replication in vitro: Insights into DDK and S-CDK function and Replisome Assembly

Project description:Initiation of eukaryotic DNA replication requires temporal separation of helicase loading from helicase activation and replisome assembly. Using an in vitro assay for eukaryotic origin-dependent replication initiation, we investigated the control of these events. After helicase loading, we found that the Dbf4-dependent Cdc7 kinase (DDK) initially drives origin recruitment of Sld3 and the Cdc45 helicase-activating protein. Corresponding in vivo studies found that DDK was required for Cdc45 binding at early origins during G1. Upon activation of S-phase cyclin-dependent kinases (S-CDK), a second helicase-activating protein (GINS) and the remainder of the replisome are recruited to the origin. Investigation of DNA polymerase recruitment showed that Mcm10 and DNA unwinding both were critical for recruitment of the lagging but not leading strand DNA polymerases. Our studies identify distinct roles for DDK and S-CDK during helicase activation and support a model in which the leading strand DNA polymerase is recruited prior to DNA unwinding and initial RNA primer synthesis. We performed chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) against Cdc45 in CDC7 and cdc7-4 cells arrested in G1 phase to assess the requirement of the Dbf4-dependent kinase on the recruitment of Cdc45 to origin DNA during G1.

Kinetochores coordinate pericentromeric cohesion and early DNA replication by Cdc7-Dbf4 kinase recruitment

Project description:Centromeres play several important roles in ensuring proper chromosome segregation. Not only do they promote kinetochore assembly for microtubule attachment, but they also support robust sister chromatid cohesion at pericentromeres and facilitate replication of centromeric DNA early in S phase. However, it is still elusive how centromeres orchestrate all these functions at the same site. Here we show that the budding yeast Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK) accumulates at kinetochores in telophase, facilitated by the Ctf19 kinetochore complex. This promptly recruits Sld3-Sld7 replication initiator proteins to pericentromeric replication origins so that they initiate replication early in S phase. Furthermore DDK at kinetochores independently recruits the Scc2-Scc4 cohesin loader to centromeres in G1 phase. This enhances cohesin loading and facilitates robust pericentromeric cohesion in S phase. Thus, we have found the central mechanism by which kinetochores orchestrate early S phase DNA replication and robust sister chromatid cohesion at microtubule attachment sites. Measurement of genome replication time for various S. cerevisiae strains. For each strain two samples were analysed: a replicating sample (from S phase) and a non-replicating sample (from G2 phase).

Quantitative BrdU immunoprecipitation method demonstrates that Fkh1 and Fkh2 are rate-limiting activators of replication origins that reprogram replication timing in G1 phase (BrdU)

Project description:The S. cerevisiae Forkhead Box (FOX) proteins, Fkh1 and Fkh2, regulate diverse cellular processes including transcription, long-range DNA interactions during homologous recombination, and replication origin timing and long-range origin clustering. As stimulators of early origin activation, we hypothesized that Fkh1 and Fkh2 abundance limits the rate of origin activation genome-wide. Existing methods, however, were not well suited to quantitative, genome-wide measurements of origin firing between strains and conditions. To overcome this limitation, we developed qBrdU-seq, a quantitative method for BrdU incorporation analysis of replication dynamics, and applied it to show that overexpression of Fkh1 and Fkh2 advance the initiation timing of many origins throughout the genome resulting in a higher total level of origin initiations in early S phase. The higher initiation rate is accompanied by slower replication fork progression, thereby maintaining a normal length of S phase without causing detectable Rad53 checkpoint kinase activation. The advancement of origin firing time, including that of origins in heterochromatic domains, was established in late G1 phase, indicating that origin timing can be reset subsequently to origin licensing. These results provide novel insights into the mechanisms of origin timing regulation by identifying Fkh1 and Fkh2 as rate-limiting factors for origin firing that determine the ability of replication origins to accrue limiting factors and have the potential to reprogram replication timing late in G1 phase. 5 total experiments with replicates

H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation regulates the activation of mammalian replication origins

Project description:The transmission and maintenance of genetic information in eukaryotic cells rely on the faithful duplication of the entire genome. In each round of division, excessive replication origiNS are licensed, while only a fraction is activated to give rise to bi-directional replication forks travelling in the context of chromatin. However, it remaiNS elusive how eukaryotic replication origiNS are selectively activated. Here we demoNStrate that O-GlcNAc traNSferase (OGT) enhances replication initiation by catalysing H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation. Mutation of H4S47 impairs DBF4-dependent protein kinase (DDK) recruitment on chromatin, causing compromised phosphorylation of replicative helicase mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) complex. Meanwhile, our short nascent-strand sequencing (SNS-seq) confirms the important role of H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation in origin activation. Together, H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation directs origin activation through facilitating MCM phosphorylation, and this may shed light on the spatial and temporal control of DNA replication by the dynamically changing chromatin environment.

Severe congenital neutropenia with syndromic features in a patient with homozygous hypomorphic DBF4 mutation

Project description:Accurate and efficient DNA synthesis is an essential function of replicating cells. Mutations in replisome components lead to a number of syndromic diseases including immunodeficiencies. Dumbbell former 4 (DBF4) is the regulatory subunit of the DBF4-dependent kinase (DDK) which is essential for the activation of replication origins. We here studied a patient with severe congenital neutropenia (SCN) and syndromic features without a genetic diagnosis. We identified a private homozygous mutation in DBF4 (CADD 25.8 with a DBF4-specific MSC of 3.13) in a patient with SCN. The DBF4 mutant is normally expressed in stimulated PBMCs and dermal fibroblasts, but has a decreased CDC7-binding capacity in overexpression assays. DDK-specific phosphorylation of MCM2 was decreased in stimulated PBMCs with accumulation of CDK inhibitor p21, a G0 cell cycle arrest and impaired proliferation. Serum-starved fibroblasts showed a similar cell cycle phenotype but no p21 accumulation and normal MCM2 phosphorylation. In vitro differentiation of primary CD34+ cells recapitulated the SCN phenotype observed in vivo and was associated with a 4-fold increase in p21 gene expression. Single cell RNA sequencing of whole bone marrow revealed upregulation of p53 targets and activation of the PERK pathway of the unfolded protein response. Autosomal recessive functional DBF4 deficiency causes SCN with syndromic features.
