SUMO-chain-regulated proteasomal degradation timing exemplified in DNA replication initiation

ABSTRACT: Similar to ubiquitin, SUMO forms chains, but the identity of SUMO-chain-modified factors and the purpose of this modification remain largely unknown. Here, we identify budding yeast SUMO protease Ulp2, able to disassemble SUMO chains, as a DDK interactor enriched at replication origins that promotes DNA replication initiation. Replication-engaged DDK is SUMOylated on chromatin, becoming a degradation-prone substrate when Ulp2 no longer protects it against SUMO-chain assembly. Specifically, SUMO chains channel DDK for SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase Slx5/Slx8-mediated and Cdc48 segregase-assisted proteasomal degradation. Importantly, the SUMOylation-defective ddk-KR mutant rescues inefficient replication onset and MCM activation in cells lacking Ulp2, suggesting that SUMO chains time DDK degradation. Using two unbiased proteomic approaches, we further identify subunits of the MCM helicase and other factors as SUMO-chain-modified degradation-prone substrates of Ulp2 and Slx5/Slx8. We thus propose SUMO-chain-/Ulp2-protease-regulated proteasomal degradation as a mechanism that times the availability of functionally-engaged SUMO-modified protein pools during replication and beyond.

SMC Complexes Are Guarded by the SUMO Protease Ulp2 Against SUMO-Chain-Mediated Turnover

Project description:Structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) complexes, cohesin, condensin and Smc5/6, are essential for viability and participate in multiple processes, including sister chromatid cohesion, chromosome condensation, and DNA repair. Here we show that SUMO chains target all three SMC complexes and are antagonized by the SUMO protease Ulp2 to prevent their turnover. We uncover that the essential role of the cohesin-associated subunit Pds5 is to counteract SUMO chains jointly with Ulp2. Importantly, fusion of Ulp2 to kleisin Scc1 supports viability of PDS5 null cells and protects cohesin from proteasomal degradation mediated by the SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase Slx5/Slx8. The lethality of PDS5 deleted cells can also be bypassed by simultaneous loss of the PCNA unloader, Elg1, and the cohesin releaser, Wpl1, but only when Ulp2 is functional. Condensin and Smc5/6 complex are similarly guarded by Ulp2 against unscheduled SUMO-chain assembly, which we propose to time the availability of SMC complexes on chromatin.

Slx5/8 alleviates replication stress by promoting mitotic progression

Project description:MCM-10 vs. wild type yeast differential analysis using label-free relative quantification and directed mass spectometry using RIPPER. Loss of Mcm10 causes replication stress. We uncovered that S. cerevisiae mcm10-1 mutants rely on the SUMO-targeted E3 ubiquitin ligase complex Slx5/8 and SUMO network for survival. How Slx5/8 suppresses replication stress has remained elusive. We developed a novel intensity-based label-free quantitative mass spectrometry approach and identified SUMO conjugates that were either enriched or depleted in mcm10-1 cells. We reasoned that sumoylated proteins that were decreased in mcm10-1 cells were potential Slx5/8 targets. Such candidates included subunits of the chromosome passenger complex (CPC), Bir1 and Sli15, which we verified to be substrates of the Slx5/8 pathway. CPC is known to positively regulate the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC), and we show here that the ablation of CPC components and other SAC proteins supports growth of mcm10-1 cells by relieving mitotic arrest. Together, our data provide mechanistic insight into how SUMO and Slx5/8 orchestrate the replication stress response to promote cell survival.

A new MCM modification cycle regulates DNA replication initiation

Project description:The hexameric DNA helicase MCM (Mcm2-7) is a central regulatory target in eukaryotic replication. Chromatin-bound MCM is kept inactive during G1 phase and subsequently activated in S phase to initiate replication. During this transition, the only known chemical change on the Mcm2-7 proteins is the gain of multi-site phosphorylation that promotes recruitment of co-factors. As replication initiation is tied intimately to multiple biological cues, additional changes on these proteins can provide a second regulatory point. Here we describe a new MCM modification cycle mediated by SUMO that enables a negative regulation of replication initiation. We show that all MCM subunits undergo sumoylation upon loading at origins in G1 phase prior to MCM phosphorylation. Then bulk MCM sumoylation is lost as MCM phosphorylation rises. The pattern of MCM sumoylation suggests a negative role in replication. Indeed, increasing MCM sumoylation delays genome-wide replication initiation. Mechanistically, this is partly due to enhancing the recruitment of a conserved phosphatase that delays MCM phosphorylation and activation. By revealing a new MCM modification cycle and its role in replication, our findings suggest a new model, in which MCM sumoylation counterbalances kinase-based regulation to ensure accurate control of replication initiation.

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.

SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligases (STUbLs) reduce the toxicity and abnormal transcriptional activity associated with a mutant, aggregation-prone fragment of huntingtin

Project description:We report that the SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL) Slx5 reduces the toxicity and abnormal transcriptional activity of a mutant, aggregation-prone fragment of huntingtin (htt), the causative agent of HD. An extra copy of SLX5 specifically reduces htt aggregates in the cytosol as well as chromatin-associated htt aggregates in the nucleus. Using RNA sequencing, we identified and confirmed specific targets of mHtt's transcriptional activity that are modulated by Slx5.

H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation regulates the activation of mammalian replication origins

Project description:The transmission and maintenance of genetic information in eukaryotic cells rely on the faithful duplication of the entire genome. In each round of division, excessive replication origiNS are licensed, while only a fraction is activated to give rise to bi-directional replication forks travelling in the context of chromatin. However, it remaiNS elusive how eukaryotic replication origiNS are selectively activated. Here we demoNStrate that O-GlcNAc traNSferase (OGT) enhances replication initiation by catalysing H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation. Mutation of H4S47 impairs DBF4-dependent protein kinase (DDK) recruitment on chromatin, causing compromised phosphorylation of replicative helicase mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) complex. Meanwhile, our short nascent-strand sequencing (SNS-seq) confirms the important role of H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation in origin activation. Together, H4S47 O-GlcNAcylation directs origin activation through facilitating MCM phosphorylation, and this may shed light on the spatial and temporal control of DNA replication by the dynamically changing chromatin environment.

Slx5/Slx8-dependent ubiquitin hotspots on chromatin contribute to stress tolerance [Gene expression]

Project description:Chromatin is a highly regulated environment, and protein association with chromatin is often controlled by post-translational modifications and the corresponding enzymatic machinery. Specifically, SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligases (STUbLs) have emerged as key players in nuclear quality control, genome maintenance and transcription. However, how STUbLs select specific substrates amongst myriads of SUMOylated proteins on chromatin remains unclear. Here, we reveal a remarkable co-localization of the budding yeast STUbL Slx5/Slx8 and ubiquitin at seven genomic loci that we term ‘ubiquitin hotspots’. Ubiquitylation at these sites depends on Slx5/Slx8 and protein turnover on the Cdc48 segregase. We identify the transcription factor-like Ymr111c/Euc1 to associate with these sites and be a critical determinant of ubiquitylation. Euc1 specifically targets Slx5/Slx8 to ubiquitin hotspots via bipartite binding of Slx5 that involves the Slx5 SUMO-interacting motifs and an additional, novel substrate recognition domain. Interestingly, the Euc1-ubiquitin hotspot pathway acts redundantly with chromatin modifiers of the H2A.Z and Rpd3L pathways in specific stress responses. Thus, our data suggest that STUbL-dependent ubiquitin hotspots shape chromatin during stress adaptation.
