Localization of Cdc7 Protein Kinase During DNA Replication in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

ABSTRACT: Cdc7 kinase is known to initiate DNA replication, but it is unknown where Cdc7 is found within the genome. We modified the Calling Cards method that uses the Ty5 retrotransposon to investigate Cdc7 binding in the genome. The Ty5 retrotransposon is inserted into the genome by DNA transcription factors or replication factors binding within the genome. We find that Cdc7 inserts Ty5 transposons throughout chromosomes and furthermore creates more Ty5 insertions into regions of DNA that are known to replicate early. Cdc7 does not solely integrate Ty5 at origins or replication, but rather throughout the genome.

DBF4, not DRF1, is the crucial regulator of CDC7 kinase at replication forks.

Project description:In eukaryotes, CDC7 kinase is crucial for DNA replication initiation and has been involved in fork processing and replication stress response. Human CDC7 requires the binding of either one of two regulatory subunits, DBF4 and DRF1, for its activity. However, it is unclear whether the two regulatory subunits target CDC7 to a specific set of substrates, thus having different biological functions, or if they act redundantly. Using genome editing technology, we generated an isogenic set of cell lines deficient in either one of the two CDC7-activating subunits: these cells are viable but present signs of genomic instability, indicating that both DBF4 and DRF1 can independently support CDC7 for bulk DNA replication. Nonetheless, DBF4-deficient cells show altered replication efficiency, including partial deficiency in MCM helicase phosphorylation and alterations in the replication timing of discrete genomic regions. Notably, we find that CDC7 function at replication forks is entirely dependent on DBF4 and not DRF1. Thus, DBF4 is the primary regulator of CDC7 activity, likely mediating most of its functions in unperturbed DNA replication and during replication fork processing upon replication interference.

The role of Cdk1-cyclin B in G1/S transition revealed by chemical genetic inhibition of Cdc7

Project description:Entry of mammalian cells into DNA synthesis (S-phase) represents a key event in cell division. According to the current cell cycle models, the Cdc7 kinase represents the essential and rate-limiting trigger of DNA replication, acting together with the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdk2. Using chemical genetic systems which allow an acute shutdown of Cdc7 in in vitro cultured cells as well as in vivo in a living mouse, that Cdc7 is dispensable for cell division of many different cell types. Proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis were performed to elucidate the compensating mechanism. We demonstrate that Cdk1-cyclin B, a kinase currently thought to act exclusively during mitosis, is also active during G1/S transition both in cycling cells and in cells exiting quiescence. We show that Cdc7 and Cdk1-cyclin B play redundant roles during G1/S transition, and at least one of these kinases is needed to allow S-phase entry. These observations revise our fundamental understanding of cell cycle progression by demonstrating that Cdk1-cyclin B physiologically regulates two distinct transitions during cell division cycle, while Cdc7 plays a redundant function in DNA replication. In TMT1, to analyze the expression of Cdc7 and its partners upon auxin-mediated induction of Cdc7 degradation, we performed a TMT analysis of ES cells treated with IAA for 24 hours. In TMT2, to analyze the phosphorylation of Cdc7 targets as a function of time upon degradation of the kinase we performed the time-resolved TMT analysis of ES cells subjected to Cdc7 degradation for three different amounts of time. In TMT3, to determine the ability of Cdk1 to phosphorylate Mcm2, we analyzed the phosphoproteome of mES cells and focused on the phosphorylation of Mcm2 upon Cdk1 inhibition.

The Replication Kinase Cdc7 Marks Histones to Regulate Biosynthesis Genes

Project description:We demonstrate that the Cdc7/Dbf4-dependent histone modification, H3 threonine 45 phosphorylation (H3T45p), is specifically enriched at origins of replication, and highly transcribed genes involved in protein synthesis and glycolysis. Furthermore, we show that H3T45p also mediates polymerase recruitment and expression of these genes.

The structural basis of Cdc7-Dbf4 kinase dependent targeting and phosphorylation of the MCM2-7 double hexamer

Project description:The controlled assembly of replication forks is critical for genome stability. The Dbf4-dependent Cdc7 kinase (DDK) initiates replisome assembly by phosphorylating the MCM2-7 replicative helicase at the N-terminal tails of Mcm2, Mcm4 and Mcm6. At present, it remains poorly understood how DDK docks onto the helicase and how the kinase targets distal Mcm subunits for phosphorylation. By cryo-electron microscopy and biochemical analysis we discovered that an interaction between the HBRCT domain of Dbf4 with Mcm2 serves as an anchoring point, which supports binding of DDK across the MCM2-7 double-hexamer interface and phosphorylation of Mcm4 on the opposite hexamer. Moreover, a rotation of DDK along its anchoring point allows phosphorylation of Mcm2 and Mcm6 on opposite hexamers. In summary, our work provides fundamental insights in the DDK structure, control and the selective activation of the MCM2-7 helicase during DNA replication, which can be exploited for development of novel DDK inhibitors.
