Replication licensing regulated by an intrinsically disordered region of origin recognition complex

ABSTRACT: In eukaryotes, the hetero-hexameric origin recognition complex (ORC) is responsible for assembling Mcm2-7 complex into a head-to-head double hexamer (DH), forming pre-replicative complex (pre-RC) that licenses origin DNA for replication initiation. This process is tightly controlled throughout the cell cycle to ensure accurate duplication of the genome. Here we show that the N-terminal intrinsically disordered region (IDR) of the yeast Orc2 subunit plays a critical role in promoting pre-RC assembly. We found that removing a short segment (residues 175-200) from Orc2-IDR or mutating a key isoleucine (194) in this region significantly inhibits replication initiation across the genome and causes cell death. Although the Orc2-IDR mutants can still assemble the ORC-Cdc6-Cdt1-Mcm2-7 (OCCM) intermediate on DNA, the assembled mutant OCCM exhibits impaired ATP hydrolysis, preventing its conversion into Mcm2-7-ORC (MO) complex and subsequent DH formation. Interestingly, our in vitro assays showed that adding the Orc2-IDR peptide in the pre-RC reactions can rescue this defect. Furthermore, phosphorylation of this Orc2-IDR motif by S-cyclin dependent kinase (S-CDK) blocks its binding to Mcm2, leading to defective pre-RC assembly. Our findings provide crucial mechanistic insights into the multifaceted roles of ORC in modulating MCM loading to support origin licensing during the G1 phase and its regulation to restrict origin firing within the S phase.

Orc6 is Required for Dynamic Recruitment of Cdt1 During Repeated Mcm2-7 Loading

Project description:The origin recognition complex (ORC) nucleates DNA replication initiation in eukaryotic cells. This six-protein complex binds replication origin DNA, recruits other initiation factors and facilitates loading of the DNA helicase. Studying the function of individual ORC subunits during pre-RC formation has been hampered by the requirement of most subunits for DNA binding. In this study, we investigate the function of the S. cerevisiae Orc6 subunit, the only subunit not required for DNA binding. In vivo, depletion of Orc6 inhibits pre-replicative complex (pre-RC) assembly and maintenance. In vitro, ORC lacking Orc6 fails to interact with Cdt1 and to load the Mcm2-7 helicase onto origin DNA. We demonstrate that two regions of Orc6 bind Cdt1 directly and that the extreme C-terminus of Orc6 (Orc6-CTD) interacts tightly with the remaining five ORC subunits. Replacing Orc6 with a fusion protein linking Cdt1 to the Orc6-CTD results in an ORC complex that loads Mcm2-7 onto DNA. Interestingly, this complex can only perform a single round of Mcm2-7 loading, suggesting that a dynamic association of Cdt1 with ORC is required for multiple rounds of pre-RC assembly.

Mechanisms of MCM2-7 loading and initial DNA melting at near base-pair resolution [MCM4 & ORC2 ChIP-exo]

Project description:The loading and activation of the replicative helicase MCM2-7 are key events during the G1-S phase transition. In budding yeast, the origin recognition complex (ORC) binds to the conserved DNA elements A and B1 of the autonomously replicating sequence (ARS). This is followed by the consecutive loading of two MCM2-7 hetero-hexamers into a MCM2-7 double-hexamer (DH). In S-phase the MCM2-7 DH is activated, resulting in two Cdc45-MCM-GINS (CMG) helicases that bidirectionally unwind DNA ahead of the replication fork. Here, we show that MCM2-7 helicase loading across the B1 element displaces ORC from origins. This allows ORC binding and helicase loading at lower affinity binding sites and origins throughout the genome. Furthermore, we mapped the sites of initial DNA unwinding genome-wide and show that these sites appear near the N-terminal domains of the MCM2-7 double-hexamer in proximity of the B1 element. Finally, employing a chemical-biology approach, we establish that during helicase activation the Mcm2/5 interface acts as the DNA exit gate for single-stranded-DNA extrusion. Our work identifies that helicase loading follows a distributive mechanism, allowing for equal MCM2-7 loading across the genome and surprisingly finds that DNA unwinding initiates from the helicase N-terminal interface in proximity to the ARS B1 element.

Nucleoporins facilitate ORC loading onto chromatin

Project description:The origin recognition complex (ORC) binds throughout the genome to initiate DNA replication. In metazoans, it is still unclear how ORC is targeted to specific loci to facilitate helicase loading and replication initiation. Here, we performed immunoprecipitations coupled with mass spectrometry for ORC2 in Drosophila embryos. Surprisingly, we found that ORC2 associates with several subunits of the Nup107-160 subcomplex of the nuclear pore. Bioinformatic analysis revealed that, relative to all modENCODE factors, nucleoporins are among the most enriched factors at ORC2 binding sites. Critically, depletion of the nucleoporin Elys, a member of the Nup107-160 complex, results in decrease ORC2 loading onto chromatin. Depleting Elys also sensitized cells to replication fork stalling, which could reflect a defect in establishing dormant replication origins. Our work reveals a new connection between ORC, replication initiation and nucleoporins, highlighting a previously unrecognized function of nucleoporins in metazoan replication initiation.

The Origin Recognition Complex interacts with a subset of metabolic genes tightly linked to origins of replication.

Project description:The origin recognition complex (ORC) marks chromosomal sites as replication origins and is essential for replication initiation. In yeast, ORC also binds to DNA elements called silencers, where its primary function is to recruit silent information regulator (SIR) proteins to establish transcriptional silencing. Indeed, silencers function poorly as chromosomal origins. Several genetic, molecular, and biochemical studies of HMR-E have led to a model proposing that when ORC becomes limiting in the cell, such as in the orc2-1 mutant, only sites that bind ORC tightly, such as HMR-E, remain fully occupied by ORC, while lower affinity sites, including most origins, lose ORC occupancy. Since HMR-E possessed a unique non-replication function, we reasoned that other tight sites might reveal novel functions for ORC on chromosomes. Therefore, we comprehensively determined ORC “affinity” genome-wide by performing an ORC ChIP-on-chip in ORC2 and orc2-1 strains. Here we describe a novel group of orc2-1-resistant ORC-interacting chromosomal sites (ORF-ORC sites) that did not function as replication origins or silencers. Instead, ORF-ORC sites were comprised of protein-coding regions of highly transcribed metabolic genes. In contrast to the ORC-silencer paradigm, transcriptional activation promoted ORC association with these genes. Remarkably, ORF-ORC genes were enriched in proximity to origins of replication, and, in several instances, were transcriptionally regulated by these origins. Taken together, these results suggest a surprising connection between ORC, replication origins and cellular metabolism.

Selectivity of ORC binding sites in the human genome and the relation to replication timing, fragile sites, and recurrent deletions in cancers

Project description:The origin recognition complex (ORC) binds specific sites in mammalian genomes, from which DNA replication is initiated. Here, we address ORC binding selectivity in vivo by mapping ~52,000 ORC2 binding sites throughout the human genome. The ORC binding profile is broader than that of sequence-specific transcription factors, suggesting that it does not bind to specific DNA sequences. Instead, ORC binds to open (DNase I hypersensitive) regions in which histone H3 tails are hyperacetylated and also di-methylated at lysine 4. Our results suggest that ORC binding selectivity in vivo is determined by a novel mechanism involving non-specific interaction with accessible DNA and recognition of modified histones. ORC sites are far more prevalent in early replicating regions, suggesting that replication timing is primarily due to ORC density and stochastic firing of origins. Large genomic regions lacking ORC2 binding sites are strongly associated with common fragile sites and recurrent deletions in cancers.

Yeast ORC sumoylation status fine-tunes origin activity

Project description:Sumoylation is emerging as a post-translation modification important for chromosome duplication and stability. The origin recognition complex (ORC), which directs DNA replication initiation by loading the MCM replicative helicases onto origins, is sumoylated in both yeast and human cells. However, the biological consequences of ORC sumoylation are largely unclear. Here we report the effects of hyper- and hypo-sumoylation of yeast ORC using multiple approaches. We show that ORC hyper-sumoylation preferentially reduces the activity of a subset of early origins, while Orc2 hypo-sumoylation has an opposing effect. Mechanistically, ORC hyper-sumoylation leads to reduced MCM loading in vitro and diminished MCM chromatin association in vivo. The importance of an appropriate level of ORC sumoylation is suggested by the data that either hyper- or hypo-sumoylation of ORC results in genome instability and a dependence on other genome maintenance factors for cell fitness. Thus, yeast ORC sumoylation status needs to be fine-tuned to achieve optimal origin activity control and genome stability.
