The Bloom Syndrome Complex Senses RPA-Coated Single-Stranded DNA to Restart Stalled Replication Forks

ABSTRACT: The Bloom syndrome helicase BLM interacts with topoisomerase IIIa (TOP3A), RMI1 and RMI2 to form the BTR complex, which dissolves double Holliday junctions to produce non-crossover products during homologous recombination (HR). BLM also promotes DNA-end resection and stalled replication fork restart. However, it is still unclear how the activities of the BTR complex are regulated in cells. Here, we identify multiple highly conserved short linear peptide motifs within the BTR complex that interact cooperatively with RPA. Furthermore, we demonstrate that RPA-binding is essential for stable recruitment of BLM to DNA damage sites and for stalled fork restart, but not for its roles in HR. Disruption of RPA-binding thus constitutes a novel separation-of-function mutation of the BTR complex, and suggest a model in which BTR contains the intrinsic ability to measure levels of RPA-ssDNA at replication forks, which controls its recruitment and activation in response to replication stress.

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.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae affymetrix genome tiling array (SC3456a520015F for chromosome III, IV, V, VI) was used. • Quality control steps taken Confirmation of several loci by quantitative real time PCR.
