Replication and Protein binding profile of chromosome VI of S.cerevisiae

ABSTRACT: Type of experiment: ChIP-chip (Chromatin immunoprecipitation on DNA chip) analyses of replication related, checkpoint related proteins and BrdU incorporated regions at 300bp resolution. Newly developed S.cerevisiae chromosome VI tiling array produced by affymetrix was used. Experimental factors:Distribution of various replication and checkpoint related proteins on chromosome VI during S-phase (with or w/o hydroxy urea). Distribution of BrdU incorporated regions on chromosome VI during S-phase with hydroxy urea. Wild type, tof1 deletion mutant, mrc1 deletion mutant, rad9 deletion mutant, sml1 deletion mutant, and sml1 mec1 tel1 triple deletion mutant were also investigated. The results of 74 hybridization files presented in the paper are shown. The type of reference used for the hybridizations, if any: For the analysis of FLAG tagged protein, we usually used Cdc45-3XHA as an internal reference. For the analysis of HA tagged protein, POL1-3XFLAG was usually analyzed simultaneously as a reference. Hybridization design: Comparison of ChIP fraction with SUP fraction for protein binding profile. For the analyses of BrdU incorporated regions, anti BrdU antibody bound fraction was compared with SUP (Sup of purified DNA from cells at G1 phase) fraction. During a course of these experiments, we found that S-phase Sup fractions were essentially the same among different genetic backgrounds and did not affect the binding profiles. Based on this observation we use standardized Sups for all experiments. No locus was scored as significantly enriched in the control ChIP experiment using HU treated untagged cells. Quality control steps taken: Confirmation of ChIP fraction by Western blotting. Confirmation by conventional ChIP PCR methods for selected locus. Or Duplication. The origin of the biological sample: Budding Yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) Manipulation of biological samples and protocols used:For the preparation of HU-arrested cells, we synchronized yeast cells with alpha-factor (2mM) and then released cells into 200mM HU for 60 min. at 23Â°C. For the preparation of S-phase cells, cells were released into S-phase without HU and at 16Â°C collected at the time indicated. These cells were fixed by 1% Formaldehyde and then used for ChIP of protein of interest. For the analyses of BrdU incorporation, the same fraction of cells used for ChIP were fixed by ice cold buffer containing 0.1% Azide, and then used for detection of BrdU incorporated regions. Protocol for preparing the hybridization extract:We disrupted 1.5X10^8 cells by MULTI-BEADS SHOCKER (MB400U, YASUI KIKAI, Osaka), which was able to keep cells precisely at lower than 6Â°C during disruption by glass beads. This enabled us to retrieve more than 60% of tagged proteins to soluble fraction routinely. Chromosomal DNA was shared into the average size of 400-600bp by sonication. Anti-HA monoclonal antibody HA.11 (16B12) (CRP Inc., Denver, PA) and anti-FLAG monoclonal antibody M2 (Sigma-Aldrich Co., St Louis, MO) were used for chromatin immuno-precipitation. Immunoprecipitated chromosomal DNA was subsequently purified following the protocol of Youngâs lab (http://inside.wi.mit.edu/young/pub/locationanalysis.html). Purified DNA was random primed and amplified by the protocol of Brownâs lab (http://www.microarrays.org). 2ug of amplified DNA was digested with DNaseI to a mean size of 100bp and used for labeling as previously described by Winzeler et al. (Science. 281, 1194-1197, 1998). For the analysis of BrdU incorporated regions, total DNA from 3X10^8 cells was purified by Qiagen Genomic-tip system (P/N10223, QIAGEN, Germany). DNA was sheared to 300bp by sonication, denatured, and mixed with 2ug of anti-mouse IgG1 dynabeads (P/N110.12, Dynal AS, Norway) bound anti-BrdU monoclonal antibody (2B1D5F5H4E2, MBL, Japan). Immunoprecipitation and purification of antibody bound DNA fraction was carried out following the protocol of Cimbora et al. (Mol. Cel. Biol. 20, 5581-5591, 2000). Purified DNA was random primed and amplified by the Brownâs lab protocol. 2ug of amplified DNA was digested with DNaseI to a mean size of 100bp and used for labeling. Labeling protocol:DNA was end-labelled with Biotin-N6ddATP by Terminal Transferase as previously described by Winzeler et al. (Science. 281, 1194-1197, 1998) The protocol and conditions used during hybridization, blocking and washing: Hybridization, blocking and washing steps were carried out as previously described by Winzeler et al. (Science. 281, 1194-1197, 1998). Each sample was hybridized to the array in 150ul containing 6XSSPE, 0.005% TritonX-100, 15ug fragmented denatured salmon sperm DNA (Gibco-BRL), and 1nmole of a 3â-biotin control oligonucleotide (oligo B2 probes) that hybridized to the border features on the array. Samples were heated to 100Â°C for 10 min., and then cooled on ice. Samples were hybridized for 16h at 42Â°C in a hybridization oven (GeneChip hybri oven 320, Affymetrix, CA). Washing and staining protocol (Mini_euk1 ver2) provided by Affymetrix was performed automatically on a fluidics station (GeneChip fluidics station 400, Affymetrix, CA). Measurement data and specifications:Each array was scanned by HP GeneArray Scanner (Affymetrix, CA) at an emission wavelength of 560nm at 7.5uM resolution. Grids were aligned to the scanned images using the know feature of the array. Primary data analyses were carried out using the Affymetrix Microarray Suite Ver.5.0 software to obtain hybridization intensity, fold change value, change p-value, and detection p-value for each locus. For the discrimination of positive and negative signals for the binding, we compared ChIP fraction with Sup (supernatant) fraction by using three criteria as follows. First, the reliability of strength of signal was judged by detection p-value of each locus (p-value lower than 0.025 was considered as significant). Secondly, reliability of binding ratio was judged by change p-value (p-value lower than 0.025 was considered as significant). Thirdly, clusters consisted of at least three contiguous loci which filled above two criteria were selected as significantly enriched locus, because it is apparent that a single site of protein-DNA interaction will result in immuno-precipitation of DNA fragments that hybridized not only to the locus of the actual binding site but also to its neighbors. This third criterion is very unique, make the data highly reliable and can be only applicable to the chip data obtained by our high-resolution tiling array. In the case of BrdU experiment, loci c6-462 to c6-479 (Ty element) and c6-591 to c6-601 (YFR016c) were excluded from calculation, because those loci gave high background in IP fraction even without BrdU treatment.

The checkpoint regulatory mechanism has an important role in maintaining the integrity of the genome. This is particularly important in S phase of the cell cycle, when genomic DNA is most susceptible to various environmental hazards. When chemical agents damage DNA, activation of checkpoint signalling pathways results in a temporary cessation of DNA replication. A replication-pausing complex is believed to be created at the arrested forks to activate further checkpoint cascades, leading to repai ...[more]

Project description:DNA replication of eukaryotic chromosomes initiates at a number of discrete loci, called replication origins. Distribution and regulation of origins are important for complete duplication of the genome. Here, we determined locations of Orc1 and Mcm6, components of pre-replicative complex (pre-RC), on whole genome of Schizosaccharomyces pombe using a high-resolution tiling array. Pre-RC sites were identified in 460 intergenic regions, where Orc1 and Mcm6 colocalized. By mapping of 5-bromo-2â-deoxyuridine (BrdU)-incorporated DNA in the presence of hydroxyurea (HU), 307 pre-RC sites were identified as early-firing origins. In contrast, 153 pre-RC sites without BrdU incorporation were considered to be late and/or inefficient origins. Early and late origins tend to distribute separately in large chromosome regions. Inactivation of replication checkpoint by deletion of Cds1 resulted in BrdU incorporation with HU specifically at the late origins. An origin-exchange experiment showed that replication timing was not intrinsic to origin but dependent on its surrounding region. Interestingly, pericentromeric heterochromatin and the silent mating type locus replicated in the presence of HU, while the inner centromere or subtelomeric heterochromatin did not. Notably, MCM did not bind to inner centromeres where ORC was located. Thus, replication is differentially regulated in chromosome domains.

Project description:Cohesin is a multisubunit complex that mediates sister-chromatid cohesion. Its Smc1 and Smc3 subunits possess ABC-like ATPases at one end of 50 nm long coiled coils. At the other ends are pseudosymmetrical hinge domains that interact to create V-shaped Smc1/Smc3 heterodimers. N- and C-terminal domains within cohesin's kleisin subunit Scc1 bind to Smc3 and Smc1 ATPase heads respectively, thereby creating a huge tripartite ring. It has been suggested that cohesin associates with chromosomes by trapping DNA within its ring. Opening of the ring due to cleavage of Scc1 by separase destroys sister-chromatid cohesion and triggers anaphase. We show that cohesin's hinges are not merely dimerization domains. They are essential for cohesin's association with chromosomes, which is blocked by artificially holding hinge domains together but not by preventing Scc1's dissociation from SMC ATPase heads. Our results suggest that entry of DNA into cohesin's ring requires transient dissociation of Smc1 and Smc3 hinge domains. Keywords: Cohesin loading, Scc1, Smc1, Smc3, Hinge opening, ChIP-chip â?¢ Experimental factors Distribution of the mutant and wild type form of cohesin in mitotic G2 phase. â?¢ Experimental design ChIP analysis: In all cases, hybridization data for ChIP fraction was compared with SUP (supernatant) fraction.

The primary analysis of tiling chip data was performed following exactly the statistical algorithm used for Affymetrix GeneChip Operating Software (GCOS). The detailed information for the algorithm used can be downloaded from the Affymetrix web site. The analysis is available on request. For the ChrVI array, one unit for analysis (locus) was set to 300bp. Fold change value, change p-value, and detection p-value for each locus were obtained by primary analysis.

Project description:Segregation of homologous maternal and paternal centromeres to opposite poles during meiosis I depends on post-replicative crossing over between homologous non-sister chromatids, which creates chiasmata and therefore bivalent chromosomes. Destruction of sister chromatid cohesion along chromosome arms due to proteolytic cleavage of cohesin's Rec8 subunit by separase resolves chiasmata and thereby triggers the first meiotic division. This produces univalent chromosomes, the chromatids of which are held together by centromeric cohesin that has been protected from separase by shugoshin (Sgo1/MEI-S332) proteins. Here we show in both fission and budding yeast that Sgo1 recruits to centromeres a specific form of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). Its inactivation causes loss of centromeric cohesin at anaphase I and random segregation of sister centromeres at the second meiotic division. Artificial recruitment of PP2A to chromosome arms prevents Rec8 phosphorylation and hinders resolution of chiasmata. Our data are consistent with the notion that efficient cleavage of Rec8 requires phosphorylation of cohesin and that this is blocked by PP2A at meiosis I centromeres.

Project description:The segregation of maternal centromeres away from the paternal ones during the first division of meiosis depends on the attachment of sister kinetochores to microtubules emanating from the same spindle pole. In budding yeast monopolar attachment requires the recruitment to kinetochores of a protein complex called monopolin. The biochemical function of monopolin was unknown. Here, we have identified the casein kinase I Hrr25 as a hitherto unknown subunit of monopolin. Hrr25 differs from other monopolin components by its enzymatic activity and strong evolutionary conservation. We demonstrate that Hrr25âs kinase activity and its interaction with monopolin are both required for monopolar attachment. Accordingly, Hrr25 is associated with centromeres in meiosis I. Our results revealed a surprising new role for casein kinases and provide a hypothesis for the mechanism of monopolar attachment during meiosis I in sexually reproducing organisms: casein kinase I-dependent phosphorylation of kinetochore proteins.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Cells undergoing meiosis perform two consecutive divisions after a single round of DNA replication. During the first meiotic division, homologous chromosomes segregate to opposite poles. This is achieved by (1) the pairing of maternal and paternal chromosomes via recombination producing chiasmata, (2) coorientation of homologous chromosomes such that sister chromatids attach to the same spindle pole, and (3) resolution of chiasmata by proteolytic cleavage by separase of the meiotic-specific cohesin Rec8 along chromosome arms. Crucially, cohesin at centromeres is retained to allow sister centromeres to biorient at the second division. Little is known about how these meiosis I-specific events are regulated. RESULTS: Here, we show that Spo13, a centromere-associated protein produced exclusively during meiosis I, is required to prevent sister kinetochore biorientation by facilitating the recruitment of the monopolin complex to kinetochores. Spo13 is also required for the reaccumulation of securin, the persistence of centromeric cohesin during meiosis II, and the maintenance of a metaphase I arrest induced by downregulation of the APC/C activator CDC20. CONCLUSION: Spo13 is a key regulator of several meiosis I events. The presence of Spo13 at centromere-surrounding regions is consistent with the notion that it plays a direct role in both monopolin recruitment to centromeres during meiosis I and maintenance of centromeric cohesion between the meiotic divisions. Spo13 may also limit separase activity after the first division by ensuring securin reaccumulation and, in doing so, preventing precocious removal from chromatin of centromeric cohesin.
