Project description:The replication strategy of metazoan genomes is still unclear, mainly because definitive maps of replication origins are missing. High-throughput methods are based on population average and thus may exclusively identify efficient initiation sites, whereas ineffective origins go undetected. Single-molecule analyses of specific loci can detect both common and rare initiation events along the targeted regions. However, these usually concentrate on positioning individual events, which only gives an overview of the replication dynamics. Here, we computed the replication fork directionality (RFD) profiles of two large genes in different transcriptional states in chicken DT40 cells, namely untranscribed and transcribed DMD and CCSER1 expressed at WT levels or overexpressed, by aggregating hundreds of oriented replication tracks detected on individual DNA fibres stretched by molecular combing. These profiles reconstituted RFD domains composed of zones of initiation flanking a zone of termination originally observed in mammalian genomes and were highly consistent with independent population-averaging profiles generated by Okazaki fragment sequencing (OK-seq). Importantly, we demonstrate that inefficient origins do not manifest as detectable RFD shifts, explaining why dispersed initiation has remained invisible to population-based assays. Our method can both generate quantitative profiles and identify discrete events, thereby constituting a comprehensive approach to study metazoan genome replication.

Project description:During each cell division, tens of thousands of DNA replication origins are coordinately activated to ensure the complete duplication of the entire human genome. However, the progression of replication forks can be challenged by numerous factors. One such factor is transcription-replication conflict (TRC), which can either be co-directional or head-on and the latter has been revealed as more dangerous for genome integrity. In order to study the direction of replication fork movement and TRC, we developed a bioinformatics tool, called OKseqHMM, to direct measure the replication fork directionality (RFD) as well as replication initiation and termination, along human genome obtained by sequencing of Okazaki fragments (OK-Seq) and related techniques. We have gathered and analyzed OK-seq data from a large number of organisms including yeast, mouse and human, to generate high-quality RFD profiles and determine initiation zones and termination zones by using Hidden Markov Model (HMM) algorithm (all tools and data are available at https://github.com/CL-CHEN-Lab/OK-Seq). In addition, we have extended our analysis to data obtained by related techniques, such as eSPAN and TrAEL-seq, which also contain RFD information. Our works, therefore, provide an important tool and resource for the community to further study TRC and genome instability, in a wide range of cell line models and growth conditions, which is of prime importance for human health.

Project description:We investigated the genome-wide distribution of Okazaki fragments in the commonly used laboratory Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain S288C to study the DNA replication model adopted by the budding yeast. The method based upon lambda exonuclease digestion for purification of RNA-primed replication intermediates was first improved to be suitable for the purification of Okazaki fragments. Then, we used this improved method to purify Okazaki fragments from S288C yeast cells, followed by Illumina sequencing. We found that the expected asymmetric distribution of Okazaki fragments around confirmed replication origins, which was derived from the semi-discontinuous DNA replication model, was not observed on S. cerevisiae chromosomes. Even around two highly efficient replication origins, ARS522 and ARS416, the ratios of Okazaki fragments on both strands were inconsistent with the semi-discontinuous DNA replication model. Our study supported the discontinuous DNA replication model. Besides, we also observed that Okazaki fragments were overpresented in the transcribed regions in S. cerevisiae mitochondrial genome, which indicated the interplay between transcription and DNA replication.

Project description:Prior to ligation, each Okazaki fragment synthesized on the lagging strand in eukaryotes must be nucleolytically processed. Nuclease cleavage takes place in the context of 5’ flap structures generated via strand-displacement synthesis by DNA polymerase delta. At least three DNA nucleases: Rad27 (Fen1), Dna2, and Exo1, have been implicated in processing Okazaki fragment flaps. However, neither the contributions of individual nucleases to lagging-strand synthesis nor the structure of the DNA intermediates formed in their absence have been clearly defined in vivo. By conditionally depleting lagging-strand nucleases and directly analyzing Okazaki fragments synthesized in vivo in S. cerevisiae, we conduct a systematic evaluation of the impact of Rad27, Dna2 and Exo1 on lagging-strand synthesis. We find that Rad27 processes the majority of lagging-strand flaps, with a significant additional contribution from Exo1 but not from Dna2. When nuclease cleavage is impaired, we observe a reduction in strand-displacement synthesis as opposed to the widespread generation of long Okazaki fragment 5’ flaps, as predicted by some models. Further, using cyclin-controlled constructs, we demonstrate that both the nucleolytic processing and the ligation of Okazaki fragments can be uncoupled from DNA replication and delayed until after synthesis of the majority of the genome is complete.
