Genome-wide replication analysis of a yeast eco1 mutant by deep sequencing.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Eco1 is the acetyltransferase that establishes sister-chromatid cohesion during DNA replication. Budding yeast with an eco1 mutation that genocopies Roberts syndrome displaysreduced ribosomal DNA (rDNA) transcription and a transcriptional signature of starvation. Weshow that deleting FOB1, a gene encoding a specific replication fork blocking protein for therDNA region, rescues rRNA production and partially rescues transcription genome-wide. This experiment examines the effect of eco1 mutation on replication genome-wide. Furtherstudies show that deletion of FOB1 corrects the genome-wide replication defects, nucleolarstructure, and rDNA segregation in an eco1 mutant. Our study highlights cohesin's central role atthe rDNA for global control of DNA replication and gene expression.
