Project description:Chromosomal DNA replication involves the coordinated activity of hundreds to thousands of replication origins. Individual replication origins are subject to epigenetic regulation of their activity during S-phase, resulting in differential efficiencies and timings of replication initiation during S-phase. This regulation is thought to involve chromatin structure and organization into timing domains with differential ability to recruit limiting replication factors. Rif1 has recently been identified as a genome-wide regulator of replication timing in fission yeast and in mammalian cells. However, previous studies in budding yeast have suggested that Rif1’s role in controlling replication timing may be limited to subtelomeric domains and derives from its established role in telomere length regulation. We have analyzed replication timing by analyzing BrdU incorporation genome-wide, and report that Rif1 regulates the timing of late/dormant replication origins throughout the S. cerevisiae genome. Analysis of pfa4∆ cells, which are defective in palmitoylation and membrane association of Rif1, suggests that replication timing regulation by Rif1 is independent of its role in localizing telomeres to the nuclear periphery. Intra-S checkpoint signaling is intact in rif1∆ cells, and checkpoint-defective mec1∆ cells do not comparably deregulate replication timing, together indicating that Rif1 regulates replication timing through a mechanism independent of this checkpoint. Our results indicate that the Rif1 mechanism regulates origin timing irrespective of proximity to a chromosome end, and suggest instead that telomere sequences merely provide abundant binding sites for proteins that recruit Rif1. Still, the abundance of Rif1 binding in telomeric domains may facilitate Rif1-mediated repression of non-telomeric origins that are more distal from centromeres. 4 samples BrdU-IP-seq in HU, 2 strains with 2-replicates each (strains:WT and rif1 delta)

Project description:The budding yeast telomere binding protein Rif1 (Rap1-interacting factor 1) plays an evolutionarily conserved role in the control of DNA replication timing, which operates through an interaction with the PP1 phosphatase. Rif1-PP1 has been proposed to inhibit origin firing by reversing the phosphorylation of key targets involved in replication initiation. However, it is not yet known if Rif1 binds directly to the replication origins that it controls. Here we show that in unperturbed yeast cells Rif1 primarily regulates late-replicating telomere-proximal origins. Using Chromatin Endogenous Cleavage (ChEC)-seq, we find that Rif1 is robustly detected at many late-replicating origins that we identify as targets of its inhibitory action. Abrogation of Rif1 telomere binding, through mutation of its Rap1 binding module, leads to increased Rif1 binding and late origin inhibition elsewhere in the genome. Our results support a model whereby Rif1 inhibits replication initiation by binding directly at origins, most of which are near telomeres, where Rif1 is concentrated through its interaction with telomere-bound Rap1 protein.

Project description:The Rif1 protein negatively regulates telomeric TG repeat length in the budding yeast S. cerevisiae, but how it prevents telomere over-extension is unknown. Rif1 was recently shown to control DNA replication by acting as a Protein Phosphatase 1 (PP1)-targeting subunit. Therefore we investigated whether Rif1 controls telomere length by targeting PP1 activity. We find that a Rif1 mutant that cannot interact with PP1 causes a long-telomere phenotype, similar to that of rif1∆ cells. Compromised PP1 function also causes telomere extension. Tethering PP1 at a specific telomere partially substitutes for Rif1 in limiting TG repeat length, confirming the importance of PP1 in telomere length control. Ablating Rif1-PP1 interaction leads to precocious activation of telomere-proximal replication origins and aberrantly early telomere replication. However, we find that Rif1 still limits telomere length even if nearby replication origins are deleted, indicating that effects of Rif1 on telomere length are not mediated through replication timing. Instead we find that, even at a telomere created after DNA synthesis during a mitotic block, Rif1-PP1 interaction is required to suppress telomere lengthening and prevent inappropriate recruitment of Tel1 kinase. Overall, our results show that Rif1 controls telomere length by recruiting PP1 to directly suppress telomerase-mediated TG repeat lengthening.

Project description:This experiment details ChIP sequencing to decipher the binding sites of the Rif1 protein in budding yeast. Rif1 binds most strongly to telomeres where its binding is mediated by Rap1. To reduce telomere binding and help reveal Rap1-independent binding sites, a truncation mutant of Rif1 lacking the Rap1 interaction domain was constructed and analysed. Binding was examined at various cell-cycle stages to elucidate the role of Rif1 in DNA replication and other chromosome transactions.

Project description:One of the long-standing questions in eukaryotic DNA replication is the mechanisms that determine where and when a particular segment of the genome is replicated. Cdc7/Hsk1 is a conserved kinase required for initiation of DNA replication, and may affect the site selection and timing of origin firing. We identified rif1∆, a null mutant of rif1+, a conserved telomere binding factor, as an efficient bypass mutant of fission yeast hsk1. Extensive deregulation of dormant origins over a wide range of the chromosomes occurs in rif1∆ in the presence or absence of HU. At the same time, many early-firing, efficient origins are suppressed or delayed in firing timing in rif1∆. Rif1 binds not only to telomeres but also to many specific locations on the arm segments that only partially overlap with the pre-Replicative Complex assembly sites, although Rif1 tends to bind in the vicinity of the late/ dormant origins activated in rif1∆. The binding to the arm segments occurs through M to G1 phase in a manner independent of Taz1 and appears to be essential for the replication timing program during normal cell cycle. Our data demonstrate that Rif1 is a critical determinant of origin activation program on the fission yeast chromosomes. BrdU incorporation profiles at early S-phase in Wild vs rif1∆.

Project description:Rif1 is involved in telomere homeostasis, DNA replication timing, and DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway choice from yeast to human. The molecular mechanisms that enable Rif1 to fulfill its diverse roles remain to be determined. Here, we demonstrate that Rif1 is S-acylated within its conserved N-terminal domain at cysteine residues C466 and C473 by the DHHC family palmitoyl acyltransferase Pfa4. Rif1 S-acylation facilitates the accumulation of Rif1 at DSBs, the attenuation of DNA end-resection, and DSB repair by non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). These findings identify S-acylation as a posttranslational modification regulating DNA repair. S-acylated Rif1 mounts a localized DNA-damage response proximal to the inner nuclear membrane, revealing a mechanism of compartmentalized DSB repair pathway choice by sequestration of a fatty acylated repair factor at the inner nuclear membrane.

Project description:Rif1 regulates replication timing and repair of double-stranded DNA breaks. Using Chromatin-immunoprecipitation-Sequencing method, we have identified 35 high-affinity Rif1 binding sites in fission yeast chromosomes. Binding sites, preferentially located to the vicinity of dormant origins, tended to contain at least two copies of a conserved motif, CNWWGTGGGGG, and base substitution within these motifs resulted in complete loss of Rif1 binding and activation of late-firing or dormant origins located as far as 50 kb away. We show that Rif1 binding sites adopt G-quadruplex-like structures in vitro in a manner dependent on the conserved sequence as well as on other G-tracts, and that the purified Rif1 preferentially binds to this structure. These results suggest that Rif1 recognizes and binds to G-quadruplex-like structures at selected intergenic regions to generate local chromatin structures that may exert a long-range suppressive effects on origin firing.
