Project description:Meiotic recombination facilitates accurate pairing and faithful segregation of homologous chromosomes by forming physical connections (crossovers) between homologs. Developmentally programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) generated by Spo11 protein (Rec12 in fission yeast) initiate meiotic recombination. Until recently, attempts to address the basis of the highly non-random distribution of DSBs on a genome-wide scale have been limited to 0.1–1 kb resolution of DSB position. We have assessed individual DSB events across the Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome at near-nucleotide resolution by deep-sequencing the short oligonucleotides connected to Rec12 following DNA cleavage. The single oligonucleotide size-class generated by Rec12 allowed us to effectively analyze all break events. Our high-resolution DSB map shows that the influence of underlying nucleotide sequence and chromosomal architecture differs in multiple ways from that in budding yeast. Rec12 action is not strongly restricted to nucleosome-depleted regions but is nevertheless spatially biased with respect to chromatin structure. Furthermore, we find strong evidence across the genome for differential DSB repair previously predicted to account for crossover invariance (constant cM/kb in spite of DSB hotspots). Our genome-wide analyses demonstrate evolutionarily fluid factors contributing to crossover initiation and its regulation.

Project description:Crossovers formed by recombination between homologous chromosomes are important for proper homolog segregation during meiosis and for generation of genetic diversity. Optimal molecular analysis of DNA intermediates of recombination requires synchronous cultures. We previously described a mutant, pat1-as2, of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe that undergoes synchronous meiosis at 25°C when an ATP analog is added to the culture. Here, we compare recombination intermediates in pat1-as2 at 25°C with those in the widely used pat1-114 temperature-sensitive mutant at 34°C, a temperature higher than optimal. DNA double-strand breaks at most hotspots are similarly abundant in the two conditions but, remarkably, a few hotspots are distinctly deficient at 25°C. In both conditions Holliday junctions at DNA break hotspots form more frequently between sister chromatids than between homologs, but a novel species, perhaps arising from invasion by only one end of broken DNA, is more readily observed at 25°C. Our results confirm the validity of previous assays of recombination intermediates in S. pombe and provide new information on the mechanism of meiotic recombination.

Project description:Homologous recombination events during meiosis cluster at specific loci called hotspots. Hotspot activation requires accessible chromatin, DNA sequence motifs DNA sequence-specific binding proteins, but how these proteins create a suitable environment for Rec12 recruitment is unknown. Here, we purified the ade6-M26 meiotic recombination hotspot from Schizosaccharomyces pombe and identified novel regulators of hotspot activation by mass spectrometry. Small, circular minichromosomes containing the ade6-M26 hotspot or control allele were transformed into strains permitting synchronous meiotic induction and purified from these cultures at sequential time points. Enrichment of known M26 binding factors Atf1 and Pcr1 in the data set validated the approach. Filtering for chromatin-related proteins enriched in the hotspot revealed candidate hotspot regulators, which were validated using genetic studies. This study highlights the power of unbiased proteomic screens to reveal novel insights into fundamental biological processes, and highlights a critical role in H2AZ turnover in mediating access of transcription factors to their underlying DNA-sequence motifs.
