A role of RPA in replication coupled nucleosome assembly

ABSTRACT: Chromatin replication requires tight coordination of nucleosome assembly machinery with DNA replication machinery. While significant progress has been made in characterizing histone chaperones in this process, the mechanism of whereby nucleosome assembly couples with DNA replication remains largely unknown. Here we show that replication protein A (RPA), a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein that is essential for DNA replication provides a binding platform for H3-H4 deposition by histone chaperons and is required for nucleosome formation on nascent chromatin. RPA binds free histone H3-H4 but not nucleosomal histones, and a RPA coated ssDNA stimulates assembly of H3-H4 onto double strand DNA in vitro. RPA mutant with reduced H3-H4 binding exhibits synthetic genetic interaction with mutations at key factors involved in replication-coupled (RC) nucleosome assembly, and are defective in assembly of replicating DNA into nucleosomes in cells. These results reveal a novel function for RPA in nucleosome assembly and a mechanism whereby nucleosome assembly is coordinated with 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.

Rtt105 promotes DNA replication by functioning as an RPA chaperone

Project description:Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein Replication Protein A (RPA) is essential for protecting ssDNA at replication forks. However, how RPA is loaded to replication forks remains unexplored. Here, we show that Regulator of Ty1 transposition protein 105 (Rtt105) binds RPA and is required for the association of RPA with replication forks. Cells lacking Rtt105 exhibit dramatic genome instability and severe defects in DNA replication. Intriguingly, both the RPA nuclear import and its ability to bind DNA replication forks were greatly compromised in rtt105 mutant cells, however, targeting RPA to the nucleus cannot rescue the defect of RPA binding to replication forks. Importantly, Rtt105 promotes the binding of RPA to ssDNA but does not associate with the final RPA-ssDNA complex in vitro. Moreover, single-molecule studies revealed that Rtt105 affects the binding mode of RPA to ssDNA. These results support a model in which Rtt105 functions as an RPA chaperone that escorts RPA to nucleus and assemble RPA onto ssDNA at replication forks.

Regulator of Ty1 transposition protein 105 (Rtt105) is an RPA chaperone and is required for genome stability maintenance

Project description:Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein Replication Protein A (RPA) is essential for protecting ssDNA at replication forks. However, how RPA is guided to DNA replication forks remains unclear. Here, we show that Regulator of Ty1 transposition protein 105 (Rtt105) is an RPA-binding protein and is required for the binding of RPA at replication forks. Cells lacking Rtt105 exhibit extensive genome instability and severe defects in DNA replication. Both the nuclear import of RPA and the extent of genome-wide binding of RPA at replication forks were greatly compromised in rtt105 mutant cells. Mechanistically, Rtt105 is required for the interaction of RPA with Kap95, an importin protein known to be essential for RPA’s nuclear import. Remarkably, Rtt105 strongly enhances RPA binding with ssDNA substrates in vitro. We therefore propose a model in which Rtt105 functions as a RPA chaperone that both escorts RPA during nuclear important and delivers RPA to replication forks.

Epigenetic mechanisms to propagate histone acetylation by p300/CBP

Project description:Histone acetylation is important for the activation of gene transcription but little is known about its direct ‘read/write’ mechanisms. Here, we report cryo-electron microscopy structures in which a p300/CBP multidomain monomer recognizes histone H4 N-terminal tail (NT) acetylation (ac) in a nucleosome and acetylates non-H4 histone NTs within the same nucleosome. p300/CBP not only recognized H4NTac via the bromodomain pocket responsible for ‘reading’, but also interacted with the DNA minor grooves via the outside of that pocket. This directed the catalytic center of p300/CBP to one of the non-H4 histone NTs. The primary target that p300 ‘writes’ by ‘reading’ H4NTac was H2BNT, and H2BNTac promoted H2A-H2B dissociation from the nucleosome. We propose a model in which p300/CBP ‘replicates’ histone NT acetylation within the H3-H4 tetramer to inherit epigenetic storage, and ‘transcribes’ it from the H3-H4 tetramer to the H2B-H2A dimers to activate context-dependent gene transcription through local nucleosome destabilization.

DNAJC9 integrates heat shock molecular chaperones into the histone chaperone network

Project description:From biosynthesis to assembly into nucleosomes, histones are handed through a cascade of histone chaperones, which shield histones from non-specific interactions. Whether mechanisms exist to safeguard the histone fold during histone chaperone handover events or to release trapped intermediates is unclear. Using structure-guided and functional proteomics, we identify and characterize a histone chaperone function of DNAJC9, a heat shock co-chaperone that promotes HSP70-mediated catalysis. We elucidate the structure of DNAJC9, in a histone H3-H4 co-chaperone complex with MCM2, revealing how this dual histone and heat shock co-chaperone binds histone substrates. We show that DNAJC9 recruits HSP70-type enzymes via its J domain to fold histone H3-H4 substrates: upstream in the histone supply chain, during replication- and transcription-coupled nucleosome assembly, and to clean up spurious interactions. With its dual functionality, DNAJC9 integrates ATP-resourced protein folding into the his one supply pathway to resolve aberrant intermediates throughout the dynamic lives of histones.

Genome-wide Replication-independent H3 Exchange Occurs Predominantly at Promoters and Implicates H3K56ac and Asf1

Project description:In yeast, histone H3/H4 exchange independent of replication is poorly understood. Here, we analyzed the deposition of histone H3 molecules, synthesized during G1, using a high-density microarray histone exchange assay. While we found that H3 exchange in coding regions requires high levels of transcription, promoters exchange H3 molecules in absence of transcription. In inactive promoters, H3 is deposited predominantly in well-positioned nucleosomes surrounding nucleosome free regions, indicating that some nucleosomes in promoters are dynamic. This could facilitate induction of repressed genes. Importantly, we show that histone H3 K56 acetylation, a replication-associated mark, is also present in replication-independent newly assembled nucleosomes and correlates perfectly with the deposition of new H3. Finally, we found that transcription-dependent incorporation of H3 at promoters is highly dependent on Asf1. Taken together our data underline the dynamic nature of replication-independent nucleosome assembly/disassembly, specify a link to transcription and implicate Asf1 and H3 K56 acetylation.

RPA promotes processive ssDNA digestion by Dna2 via their bimodal interaction in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Project description:Single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) widely exists as intermediates in DNA metabolic pathways. The ssDNA binding protein, RPA, not only protects the integrity of ssDNA, but also directs the downstream factor that signals or repairs the ssDNA intermediate. However, it remains unclear how these enzymes/factors out-compete RPA and access to ssDNA. Using the budding yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, as a model system, we discovered that Dna2, a key nuclease in DNA replication and repair, employs a bimodal interface to act with RPA both in cis and in trans. The cis-action renders RPA a processive unit for Dna2-catalyzed ssDNA digestion, where RPA actively delivers its bound ssDNA to Dna2. The trans-action mediated by an acidic patch from Dna2, on the other hand, enables Dna2 to operatie with a sub-optimal amount of RPA or to overcome DNA secondary structures. Genetically, this trans-action mode is not required for cell viability, but indispensable for successful DSB repair.

Histone modifications associated with the histone chaperone DAXX

Project description:A multitude of histone chaperones is required to protect histones from their biosynthesis to DNA deposition. They cooperate through the formation of co-chaperone complexes, but the crosstalk between nucleosome assembly pathways is unclear. Using explorative interactomics approaches, we map the organization of the histone H3-H4 chaperones network and define the interplay between histone chaperones systems. We identify and validate a panel of novel histone (PTM) dependent complexes. We show DAXX acts separately from the rest of the network, recruiting heterochromatin factors and promoting lysine 9 tri-methylated new histone H3.3 prior to deposition onto DNA. With its functionality, DAXX provides a molecular mechanism for de novo heterochromatin assembly.

DAXX adds a de novo H3.3K9me3 deposition pathway to the histone chaperone network (part 2)

Project description:A multitude of histone chaperones are required to support histones from their biosynthesis until DNA deposition. They cooperate through the formation of histone co-chaperone complexes, but the crosstalk between nucleosome assembly pathways remains enigmatic. Using exploratory interactomics, we define the interplay between histone H3–H4 chaperones in the histone chaperone network. We identify several novel histone dependent complexes and predict the structure of the ASF1 and SPT2 co-chaperone complex, expanding the role of ASF1 in histone dynamics. We show that DAXX provides a unique functionality to the histone chaperone network, recruiting histone methyltransferases to promote H3K9me3 catalysis on new histone H3.3–H4 prior to deposition onto DNA. Hereby, DAXX provides a molecular mechanism for de novo H3K9me3 deposition and heterochromatin assembly. Collectively, our findings provide a framework for understanding how cells orchestrate histone supply and employ targeted deposition of modified histones to underpin specialized chromatin states.
