Project description:Oncoproteins of the MYC family drive the development of numerous human tumors. In unperturbed cells, MYC proteins bind to virtually all active promoters and control transcription by RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII). MYC proteins can also coordinate transcription with DNA replication and promote the repair of transcription-associated DNA damage, but how they exert these mechanistically diverse functions is unknown. Here we show that MYC dissociates from many of its binding sites in active promoters and forms multimeric, often sphere-like structures in response to perturbation of transcription elongation, mRNA splicing or inhibition of the proteasome. Multimerization is accompanied by a global change in the MYC interactome towards proteins involved in transcription termination and RNA processing. MYC multimers accumulate on chromatin immediately adjacent to stalled replication forks and surround FANCD2, ATR and BRCA1 proteins, which are located at stalled forks. MYC multimerization is triggered in a HUWE1- and ubiquitylation-dependent manner. At active promoters, MYC multimers block antisense transcription and stabilize FANCD2 association with chromatin. This limits DNA double-strand break formation during S phase, suggesting that multimerization of MYC enables tumor cells to proliferate under stressful conditions.

Project description:Oncoproteins of the MYC family drive the development of numerous human tumors1-4. In unperturbed cells, MYC proteins bind to virtually all active promoters and control transcription by RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII)2,3,5,6. MYC proteins can also coordinate transcription with DNA replication7-9 and promote the repair of transcription-associated DNA damage10, but how they exert these mechanistically diverse functions is unknown. Here we show that MYC dissociates from most of its binding sites in promoters and forms stable multimeric shell-like structures in response to perturbation of transcription elongation, mRNA splicing, or DNA replication. MYC multimers recruit interacting proteins that can promote transcription termination into their shells. Intriguingly, MYC multimers accumulate on chromatin immediately adjacent to stalled replication forks and surround the FANCD2, ATR and BRCA1 proteins, which are located at stalled forks11,12. MYC multimers accumulate ubiquitylated proteins and their formation depends on the HUWE1 ubiquitin ligase10,13. In response to replication stress, HUWE1 and MYC limit phosphorylation of the single-strand binding protein, RPA. We propose that localised multimerisation of MYC creates a transcription termination zone around stalled replication forks that limits checkpoint signalling in response to transcriptional and replication stress, allowing tumor cells to actively proliferate under stressful conditions

Project description:Oncogene-induced replication stress constitutes an early obstacle for pre-cancerous cells to overcome to progress towards malignancy. Fanconi anaemia signalling represents a major genomic maintenance pathway that is activated in response to replication stress, impinging on stalled replication fork stability and recovery. Here, we report that upon replication stress, phosphorylation of the FANCD2 N-terminus by CHK1 triggers FBXL12-dependent proteasomal degradation of FANCD2, facilitating clearance of FANCD2 at stalled replication forks. This mechanism is required to promote efficient and faithful DNA replication under conditions of CYCLIN E- and drug-induced replication stress. Notably, reconstitution of FANCD2 with mutations in the N-terminal phosphodegron fail to re-establish fork progression in FANCD2-deficient human fibroblasts in response to replication stress. In the absence of FBXL12, FANCD2 becomes trapped on chromatin leading to replication stress, excessive DNA damage, and cell death. In human cancers, FBXL12, CYCLIN E, and Fanconi anaemia signalling are positively correlated and upregulation or amplification of FBXL12 is linked to reduced survival in patients with high CYCLIN E expressing breast tumours. Finally, depletion of FBXL12 exacerbated oncogene-induced replication stress and sensitised breast cancer cells to drug-induced replication stress by WEE1 inhibition. Collectively, our results indicate that FBXL12 constitutes a vulnerability of CYCLIN E-overexpressing cancer cells and may represent a novel target for cancer therapy.

Project description:Background: Chromatin remodeling complexes facilitate the access of enzymes that mediate transcription, replication or repair of DNA by modulating nucleosome position and/or composition. Ino80 is the DNA-dependent Snf2-like ATPase subunit of a complex whose nucleosome remodeling activity requires actin-related proteins, Arp4, Arp5 and Arp8, as well as two RuvB-like DNA helicase subunits. Budding yeast mutants deficient for Ino80 function are not only hypersensitive to reagents that induce DNA double strand breaks, but also to those that impair replication fork progression. Results: To understand why ino80 mutants are sensitive to agents that perturb DNA replication, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation to map the binding sites of the Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex on four budding yeast chromosomes. We found that Ino80 and Arp5 binding sites coincide with origins of DNA replication and tRNA genes. In addition, Ino80 was bound at 67% of the promoters of genes that are sensitive to ino80 mutation. When replication forks were arrested near origins in the presence of hydroxyurea (HU), the presence of the Ino80 complex at stalled forks and at unfired origins increased dramatically. Importantly, the resumption of DNA replication after release from a HU block was impaired in the absence of Ino80 activity. Mutant cells accumulated double-strand breaks as they attempted to restart replication. Consistently, ino80-deficient cells, although proficient for checkpoint activation, delay recovery from the checkpoint response. Conclusions: The Ino80 chromatin remodeling complex is enriched at stalled replication forks where it promotes the resumption of replication upon recovery from fork arrest.

Project description:Oncogene-induced replication stress constitutes an early obstacle for pre-cancerous cells to
overcome to progress towards malignancy. Fanconi anaemia signalling represents a major
genomic maintenance pathway that is activated in response to replication stress, impinging on
stalled replication fork stability and recovery. Here, we report that FBXL12 ubiquitinates the
central Fanconi anaemia protein FANCD2 at stalled replication forks upon CHK1-mediated
phosphorylation, resulting in FANCD2 degradation. This mechanism is required to promote
efficient and faithful DNA replication under conditions of cyclin E- and drug-induced
replication stress. In the absence of FBXL12, FANCD2 becomes trapped on chromatin leading
to replication stress, excessive DNA damage, and cell death. In human cancers, FBXL12, cyclin
E, and Fanconi anaemia signalling are positively correlated and upregulation or amplification
of FBXL12 is linked to reduced survival in patients with high cyclin E expressing breast
tumours. Finally, depletion of FBXL12 exacerbated oncogene-induced replication stress and
sensitised breast cancer cells to drug-induced replication stress by WEE1 inhibition.
Collectively, our results indicate that FBXL12 constitutes a vulnerability of cyclin E-
overexpressing cancer cells and represents a novel target for cancer therapy.

Project description:Faithful duplication of DNA is essential for the maintenance of genomic stability in all organisms. DNA synthesis proceeds bi-directionally with continuous synthesis of leading strand DNA and discontinuous synthesis of lagging strand DNA. Herein, we describe a method of enriching and Sequencing of Protein-Associated Nascent strand DNA (eSPAN) to detect whether a protein binds the leading- and lagging-strands of DNA replication forks. We show that Pol-epsilon, PCNA, Cdc45, Mcm6 and Mcm10 preferentially associate with leading strands, whereas Pol-alpha, Pol32, Pol-delta, Rfa1 and Rfc1 associate with lagging strands of hydroxyurea (HU)-stalled replication forks. In contrast, PCNA is enriched at lagging strands of normal replication forks in wild type cells and HU-stalled forks in cells lacking Elg1. These studies demonstrate a strategy to reveal proteins at leading and lagging strands of DNA replication forks, and suggest that the unloading of PCNA from lagging strands of HU-stalled replication forks helps maintain genome integrity.
