Partitioning of Parental Histones Between Leading and Lagging Strands is Modulated by DNA Polymerase Dosage

ABSTRACT: Epigenetic inheritance relies on the precise recycling of parental histones during DNA replication. The N-terminal region of Pol1, the catalytic subunit of DNA polymerase α, has previously been implicated in chaperoning parental histone recycling. In this study, we identify a single amino acid mutation in the C-terminal region of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Pol1 (pol1-F1396S) that destabilizes the protein and disrupts the transfer of parental histones to the lagging strand during DNA replication. As a primary consequence, pol1-F1396S cells exhibit decreased chromatin stability. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the cellular abundance—or dosage—of all three DNA polymerases (Pol α, Pol δ, and Pol ε) influences the distribution of parental histones between the leading and lagging strands, revealing a dosage-sensitive mechanism of epigenetic regulation during DNA replication.

The Mcm2-Ctf4-Pola axis facilitates parental histone transfer to lagging strands

Project description:Although essential for epigenetic inheritance, the transfer of parental histone (H3-H4)2 tetramers that contain epigenetic modifications to replicating DNA strands is poorly understood. Here, we show that the Mcm2-Ctf4-Pol axis facilitates the transfer of parental (H3-H4)2 tetramers to lagging strands of DNA replication forks. Mutating the H3-H4 binding domain of Mcm2, a subunit of the CMG (Cdc45-MCM-GINS) replicative helicase that translocates along leading strands, impairs the transfer of parental (H3-H4)2 to lagging strands. Similar effects are observed in Ctf4 and Pol-primase mutants that disrupt the connection of the CMG helicase via Ctf4-Pol to lagging strands. Our results support a model whereby parental (H3-H4)2 displaced from nucleosomes through leading-strand DNA replication are transferred to lagging strands for nucleosome assembly via the CMG-Ctf4-Pol complex.

CAF-1 deposits newly synthesized histones during DNA replication using distinct mechanisms on the leading and lagging strands

Project description:During every cell cycle, both the genome and the associated chromatin must be accurately replicated. Chromatin Assembly Factor-1 (CAF-1) is a key regulator of chromatin replication, but how CAF-1 functions in relation to the DNA replication machinery is unknown. Here, we reveal that this crosstalk differs between the leading and lagging strand at replication forks. Using biochemical reconstitution, we show that DNA and histones promote CAF-1 recruitment to its binding partner PCNA and reveal that two CAF-1 complexes are required for efficient nucleosome assembly under these conditions. Remarkably, in the context of the replisome, CAF-1 competes with the leading strand DNA polymerase epsilon (Pole) for PCNA binding. However, CAF-1 does not affect the activity of the lagging strand DNA polymerase Delta (Pold). Yet, in cells, CAF-1 deposits newly synthesized histones equally on both daughter strands. Thus, on the leading strand, chromatin assembly by CAF-1 cannot occur simultaneously to DNA synthesis, while on the lagging strand these processes may be coupled. We propose that these differences may facilitate distinct parental histone recycling mechanisms and accommodate the inherent asymmetry of DNA replication.

DNA Polymerase Delta Governs Parental Histone Transfer to DNA Replication Lagging Strand

Project description:Chromatin replication is intricately intertwined with DNA replication, and the recycling of parental histones is essential for epigenetic inheritance. The transfer of parental histones to both the DNA replication leading and lagging strands involves two distinct pathways: the leading strand utilizes DNA polymerase ε subunits Dpb3/Dpb4, while the lagging strand is facilitated by the MCM helicase subunit Mcm2. However, the process by which Mcm2, moving along the leading strand, facilitates the transfer of parental histones to the lagging strand remains unclear. Our study reveals that the deletion of Pol32, a non-essential subunit of major lagging-strand DNA polymerase δ, results in a predominant transfer of parental histone H3-H4 to the replication leading strand. Biochemical analyses further demonstrate that Pol32 can bind histone H3-H4 both in vivo and in vitro. The interaction of Pol32 with parental histone H3-H4 is disrupted by the mutation of Mcm2's histone H3-H4 binding domain. In conclusion, our findings identify the DNA polymerase delta subunit Pol32 as a novel key histone chaperone downstream of Mcm2, mediating the transfer of parental histones to the lagging strand during DNA replication.

The PCNA-Pol d complex couples lagging strand DNA synthesis to parental histone transfer

Project description:How parental histone H3-H4 tetramers, the primary carrier of epigenetic modifications, are transferred to leading and lagging strands of DNA replication forks following DNA replication is an important question that remains not well understood. Here we show that DNA polymerase clamp PCNA and its partner involved in lagging strand DNA synthesis, Pol d, regulate parental histone transfer to lagging strands. Mutations at PCNA as well as at subunits of Pol d that impair the PCNA-Pol d interaction affect parental histone transfer to lagging strands, and this defect unlikely arises from their impacts on DNA synthesis. Moreover, Pol d interacts with H3-H4 in vitro. We suggest that the PCNA-Pol d complex, best known for its role in lagging strand DNA synthesis and DNA repair, couples lagging strand DNA synthesis to the transfer of the parental histones H3-H4 for the inheritance of chromatin structures following DNA replication and possibly DNA repair.

Disabling leading and lagging strand histone transmission results in parental histones loss and reduced cell plasticity and viability [RNA-Seq]

Project description:In the process of DNA replication, the first steps in restoring the chromatin landscape involve parental histone recycling and new histone deposition. Disrupting histone recycling to either the leading or lagging strand induces asymmetric histone inheritance, impacting epigenome maintenance and cellular identity. However, the order and kinetics of these effects remain elusive. Here, we employ inducible mutants to dissect the early and late consequences of impaired histone recycling. Simultaneous disruption of both leading (POLE4) and lagging strand (MCM2-2A) recycling pathways impairs transmission of parental histones to newly synthesized DNA, with release of some parental histones to the soluble pool. Subsequently, H3K27me3 accumulates aberrantly during chromatin restoration in a manner preceding gene expression changes. Loss of histone inheritance and the ensuing chromatin restoration defects alter gene expression in embryonic stem cells, challenges differentiation programs and cell viability. Our findings demonstrate the importance of efficient transmission of histone-based information during DNA replication for maintaining chromatin landscapes, differentiation potential, and cellular viability.

N-terminus of Spt16 anchors FACT to Mcm2 for parental histone recycling

Project description:Parental histone recycling is essential for the restoration of chromatin-based epigenetic information during chromatin replication; however, the specific mechanisms underlying the local recycling of parental histones remain poorly understood. Here, we reveal an unexpected role of the Spt16-N domain in histone chaperone FACT during parental histone recycling and transfer in budding yeast. We found that depletion of Spt16 or mutations in the Spt16 middle domain leads to defects in both parental histone recycling and new histone deposition, affecting both the leading and lagging strands of DNA replication forks, highlighting the essential role of the FACT complex in both parental histone recycling and new histone deposition. Surprisingly, Spt16-N deletion results in an apparent defect in parental histone recycling, with a more pronounced defect on the lagging strand than the corresponding leading strand. Mechanistically, the Spt16-N domain acts as a protective barrier, shielding FACT-bound histone H3-H4 and facilitating its interaction with Mcm2, which ensures efficient local parental histone recycling. Collectively, the Spt16-N domain provides a protein–protein interaction module allowing FACT to act as a shuttle chaperone, cooperate with multiple replisome components, which act as co-chaperones, to form a complex involving the shuttle chaperone, histones, and co-chaperones, during parental histone recycling and transfer.

Asymmetric partition of parental histone (H3-H4)2 tetramers onto replicating DNA strands

Project description:In eukaryotic cells, inheritable changes in gene expression in response to environmental and developmental stimuli is associated with changes in histone modifications and relies on the passage of these changes into daughter cells during cell division, a process that remains elusive. Here, we show that parental histone (H3-H4)2 tetramers, the primary carrier of epigenetic modifications, are assembled into nucleosomes onto both replicating leading and lagging strands, with a preference for lagging strands of DNA replication forks. This asymmetric distribution of parental (H3-H4)2 is exacerbated in cells lacking Dpb3 and Dpb4, two subunits of DNA polymerase Pol ε. Dpb3-Dpb4 binds (H3-H4)2 and participates in the transfer of parental (H3-H4)2 tetramers onto leading strands of DNA replication forks. Cells lacking Dpb3 and Dpb4 exhibits defects in epigenetic inheritance. These results reveal a previously undocumented mechanism of histone segregation and a direct role for Pol ε in this poorly understood process.
