Single molecule MATAC-seq reveals key determinants of DNA replication origin efficiency

ABSTRACT: Stochastic origin activation gives rise to significant cell-to-cell variability in the pattern of genome replication. The molecular basis for heterogeneity in efficiency and timing of individual origins is a long-standing question. Here, we developed Methylation Accessibility of TArgeted Chromatin domain Sequencing (MATAC-Seq) to determine single-molecule chromatin accessibility of specific genomic loci after targeted purification in their native chromatin context. Applying MATAC-Seq to selected early-efficient (EE) and late-inefficient (LI) budding yeast replication origins revealed large heterogeneity of chromatin states. Disruption of INO80 or ISW2 chromatin remodeling complexes leads to changes at individual nucleosomal positions that correlate with changes in their replication efficiency. We found a chromatin state with an optimal 100-115bp nucleosome-free region in combination with surrounding well-positioned nucleosomes and open +2 linker region is a strong predictor for efficient origin activation. Thus, MATAC-Seq identifies the large spectrum of alternative chromatin states that co-exist on a given locus previously masked in population-based experiments and provides a mechanistic basis for origin activation heterogeneity during DNA replication of eukaryotic cells. Consequently, our single-molecule assay for chromatin accessibility will be ideal to define single-molecule heterogeneity across many fundamental biological processes such as transcription, replication, or DNA repair in vitro and ex vivo.

Single-copy locus proteomics of early- and late-firing DNA replication origins identifies a role of Ask1/DASH complex in replication timing control

Project description:The chromatin at origins of replication is thought to influence DNA replication initiation in eukaryotic genomes. However, it remains unclear how the chromatin composition controls the firing of early-efficient (EE) or late-inefficient (LI) origins. Here, we used site-specific recombination and single-locus chromatin isolation to purify EE and LI replication origins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae . Using mass spectrometry, we define the histone modification landscape and identify the protein composition of native chromatin regions surrounding the EE and LI replication start sites. In addition to the known origin interactors, we find novel origin-associated factors, such as the kinetochore-associated Ask1/DASH complex. Strikingly, we show that Ask1 regulates the replication timing control of specific origins in yeast. Thus, our unbiased approach identifies functionally-relevant proteomes at single-copy loci and would be widely applicable to provide an in-depth quantitative characterization of histone modification and protein interaction networks of chromatin at any genomic locus of interest.

Replication origin mapping in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum

Project description:The malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum replicates via schizogony: a fundamentally unusual type of cell cycle involving asynchronous replication of multiple nuclei within the same cytoplasm. It also has one of the most A/T-biased genomes ever sequenced. Here, we present the first comprehensive study of the specification and activation of DNA replication origins during Plasmodium schizogony. Potential replication origins were found to be abundant, with ORC1-binding sites detected every ~800 bp throughout the genome. They had no motif enrichment, but were biased towards areas of higher G/C content. Origin activation was then measured at single-molecule resolution via DNAscent technology, and was much less dense than ORC1-binding sites, with origins activated preferentially in areas of low transcriptional activity. Consistently, replication forks moved slowest through the most highly transcribed genes, suggesting that conflicts between transcription and origin firing inhibit efficient replication, and that P. falciparum has evolved its S-phase to minimise such conflicts.

Chromatin environment shapes replication origin organization and defines origin classes

Project description:To unveil the still-elusive nature of metazoan replication origins, we identified them genome-wide and at unprecedented high-resolution in mouse ES cells. This allowed initiation sites (IS) and initiation zones (IZ) to be differentiated. We then characterized their genetic signatures and organization and integrated these data with 43 chromatin marks and factors. Our results reveal that replication origins can be grouped into three main classes with distinct organization, chromatin environment and sequence motifs. Class 1 contains relatively isolated, low-efficiency origins that are poor in epigenetic marks and are enriched in an asymmetric AC repeat at the initiation site. Late origins are mainly found in this class. Class 2 origins are particularly rich in enhancer elements. Class 3 origins are the most efficient and are associated with open chromatin and polycomb protein-enriched regions. The presence of Origin G-rich Repeated elements (OGRE) potentially forming G-quadruplexes (G4) was confirmed at most origins. These coincide with nucleosome-depleted regions located upstream of the initiation sites, which are associated with a labile nucleosomes containing H3K64ac. These data demonstrate that specific chromatin landscapes and combinations of specific signatures regulate origin localization. They explain the frequently-observed links between DNA replication and transcription. They also emphasize the plasticity of metazoan replication origins, and suggest that in multicellular eukaryotes, the combination of distinct genetic features and chromatin configurations act in synergy to define and adapt the origin profile.

High-resolution genome replication profiles, modeling and single-cell imaging define the stochastic nature of replication initiation and termination

Project description:Eukaryotic genome replication is stochastic with each cell using a different cohort of replication origins. Interpreting high-resolution genome replication profiles with a mathematical model allowed us to quantify the stochastic nature of genome replication. This approach included estimation of the activity of every replication origin and the genome-wide location of replication termination events. Single-cell measurements verified the inferred values for stochastic origin replication time. Strains in which multiple origins had been inactivated, confirmed that the location of termination events is primarily dictated by the stochastic activation time of origins. Cell-to-cell variability in origin activity ensures that termination events are widely distributed across virtually the whole genome. We propose that the heterogeneity in origin usage contributes to genome stability by limiting potentially deleterious events from accumulating at particular loci. Measurement of genome replication time for two S. cerevisiae strains. For each strain six S phase samples werecompared with a non-replicating sample.

Genome-wide EMSA (gEMSA) of ORC and yeast genomic DNA

Project description:Eukaryotic DNA replication origins are selected in G1-phase when the origin recognition complex (ORC) binds chromosomal DNA, triggering a series of molecular events that culminate in the initiation of DNA replication (a.k.a. origin firing) during S-phase. Each chromosome requires multiple origins for its duplication, and each origin fires at a characteristic time during S-phase, creating a cell-type specific genome replication pattern with relevance to differentiation, genome stability and evolution. It is unclear whether ORC-origin interactions are relevant to the regulation of origin activation time. Here we applied a novel genome-wide strategy to classify origins in the model eukaryote Saccharomyces cerevisiae based on the types of molecular interactions used for ORC-origin binding. Specifically, origins were classified as DNA-dependent when the strength of ORC-origin binding in vivo could be explained by the affinity of ORC for origin DNA in vitro, and, conversely, as ‘chromatin-dependent’ when the ORC-DNA interaction in vitro was insufficient to explain the strength of ORC-origin binding in vivo. The two classes of origins were distinct in terms of local nucleosome architecture and dependence on origin-flanking sequences in plasmid replication assays, consistent with local features of chromatin promoting ORC binding at ‘chromatin-dependent’ origins. Importantly, origins that fired in late S-phase, but not those that fired in early S-phase, showed a significant dependence on the ORC-origin DNA interaction for ORC binding in vivo. Therefore we demonstrate for the first time a connection between ORC-origin binding mechanisms and the regulation of origin activation time at a genome-wide level. Analysis of ORC genomic DNA binding across three ORC concentrations.

Bubble-seq Analysis of the Human Genome Reveals Distinct Chromatin-Mediated Mechanisms for Regulating Early- and Late-Firing Origins

Project description:We have devised a method for isolating virtually pure and comprehensive libraries of restriction fragments that contained replication initiation sites (bubbles) in vivo (Mesner et al. 2009). We have now sequenced and mapped the bubble-containing fragments from GM06990, a near-normal EBV-transformed lymphoblastoid cell line, and have compared origin distributions to a comprehensive replication timing study recently published for this cell line. We find that early-firing origins overwhelmingly represent zones, associate only marginally with active transcription units, are localized within large domains of open chromatin, and are significantly associated with DNAseI hypersensitivity. Origin density falls from early- to mid-S-phase, but, surprisingly, rises again in late-S-phase to density levels only 17% lower than in early S-phase. Strikingly, late origin density calculated on the 1Mb scale is robustly correlated with measures of increasing chromatin compaction. While origin efficiency decreases with replication time, the median efficiency in late-replicating, heterochromatic domains is only 25% lower than in early-replicating, euchromatic loci. Thus, the activation of early- and late-firing origins must be regulated by quintessentially different mechanisms. The aggregate data can be unified into a model in which initiation site selection is driven almost entirely by epigenetic factors that fashion both the long-range and local chromatin environments, with underlying DNA sequence and local transcriptional activity playing only minor roles. Importantly, the comprehensive origin map we have prepared for GM06990 overlaps only modestly with origin maps recently reported for the genomes of four different human cell lines based on distributions of small nascent strands. 3 samples of DNA replication (2 technical replicates, 1 biological replicate), 2 samples of poly-A RNA-Seq

HDACs act on ribosomal DNA to control the yeast replication program and the competition between origins for limiting initiation factors

Project description:In S. cerevisiae, replication timing is controlled by epigenetic mechanisms restricting the accessibility of origins to limiting initiation factors. About 30% of these origins are located within repetitive DNA sequences such as the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) array, but their regulation is poorly understood. Here, we have investigated how histone deacetylases (HDACs) control the replication program in budding yeast. This analysis revealed that two HDACs, Rpd3 and Sir2, control replication timing in an opposite manner. Whereas Rpd3 delays initiation at late origins, Sir2 is required for the timely activation of early origins. Moreover, Sir2 represses initiation at rDNA origins whereas Rpd3 counteracts this effect. Remarkably, deletion of SIR2 restored normal replication in rpd3 cells by reactivating rDNA origins. Together, these data indicate that HDACs control the replication timing program in budding yeast by modulating the ability of repeated origins to compete with single-copy origins for limiting initiation factors.

High-Resolution Profiling of Drosophila Replication Start Sites Reveals a DNA Shape and Chromatin Signature of Metazoan Origins

Project description:At every cell cycle, faithful inheritance of metazoan genomes requires the concerted activation of thousands of DNA replication origins. However, which genetic and chromatin features define metazoan replication start sites remains largely unknown. Here, we delineate the origin repertoire of the Drosophila genome at high resolution. We address the role of origin-proximal G-quadruplexes and show their ability to transiently stall replication forks in vivo. We dissect the chromatin configuration of replication origins and identify a rich spatial organization of chromatin features at initiation sites. DNA shape and chromatin configurations, not strict sequence specificity, mark and predict replication origins in higher eukaryotes. We further examine the link between transcription and origin firing and reveal that modulation of origin activity across cell types is intimately linked to cell-type-specific transcriptional programs. Our study unravels conserved origin features and provides unique insights into the relationship between DNA topology, chromatin, transcription and replication initiation across metazoa. Our dataset consists of SNS-Seq profiles in Drosophila S2 and Bg3 cells. Small nascent leading strands (SNS) have been purified with an enhanced sensitivity SNS purification protocol. For standard SNS-Seq experiments (from pooled gradient fractions, denoted as "pool"), SNS were purified from two biological replicates. For single-fraction SNS-Seq experiments, two libraries were prepared for each fraction. The genomic coordinates of S2 and Bg3 replication origins are also provided.
