Project description:The association between late replication timing and low transcription rates in eukaryotic heterochromatin is well-known, yet the specific mechanisms underlying this link remain uncertain. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the histone deacetylase Sir2 is required for both transcriptional silencing and late replication at the repetitive ribosomal DNA arrays (rDNA). We have previously reported that in the absence of SIR2, a derepressed RNA PolII repositions MCM replicative helicases from their loading site at the ribosomal origin, where they abut well-positioned, high-occupancy nucleosomes, to an adjacent region with lower nucleosome occupancy. By developing a method that can distinguish activation of closely spaced MCM complexes, here we show that the displaced MCMs at rDNA origins have increased firing propensity compared to the nondisplaced MCMs. Furthermore, we found that both, activation of the repositioned MCMs and low occupancy of the adjacent nucleosomes critically depend on the chromatin remodeling activity of FUN30. Our study elucidates the mechanism by which Sir2 delays replication timing, and it demonstrates, for the first time, that activation of a specific replication origin in vivo relies on the nucleosome context shaped by a single chromatin remodeler.

Project description:Chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs) are resected by 5’-nucleases to form 3’ single-strand DNA (ssDNA) substrates for binding by homologous recombination and DNA damage checkpoint proteins. Two redundant pathways of extensive resection were described both in cells and in vitro, one relying on Exo1 exonuclease and the other on Sgs1 helicase and Dna2 nuclease. However, it remains unknown how resection proceeds within the context of chromatin where histones and histone-bound proteins represent barriers for resection enzymes. Here, we have identified the yeast nucleosome remodeling enzyme Fun30 as novel factor promoting DSB end resection. Fun30 is the major nucleosome remodeler promoting extensive Exo1- and Sgs1-dependent resection of DSBs while the RSC and INO80 chromatin remodeling complexes play redundant roles with Fun30 in resection adjacent to DSB ends. ATPase and helicase domains of Fun30, which are needed for nucleosome remodeling, are also required for resection. Fun30 is robustly recruited to DNA breaks and spreads around the DSB coincident with resection. Fun30 becomes less important for resection in the absence of the histone-bound Rad9 checkpoint adaptor protein known to block 5’ strand processing and in the absence of either histone H3 K79 methylation or γ-H2A, which mediate recruitment of the Rad9 . Together these data suggest that Fun30 helps to overcome the inhibitory effect of Rad9 on DNA resection.

Project description:The helicase MCM and the ribonucleotide reductase RNR are the complexes that provide the substrates (ssDNA templates and dNTPs, respectively) for DNA replication. Here, we demonstrate that MCM interacts physically with RNR and some of its regulators, including the kinases Rad53 and Dun1. Partial disruption of the MCM/RNR interactions increases the levels of dNTPs under unperturbed conditions, pointing to a role for MCM counteracting excessive RNR activity. In response to DNA damage, most of these physical interactions augment and this increase depends on Dun1. Partial disruption of the MCM/RNR interactions does not affect the pool of dNTPs under these conditions. However, this disruption impairs the release of Rad52 from the DNA repair centers despite the lesions are repaired, leading to hypermutagenesis and sensitivity to genotoxic agents. Therefore, the MCM/RNR interactions play non-canonical roles preventing by distinct mechanisms excessive dNTP synthesis and persistent Rad52 centers.

Project description:The hexameric DNA helicase MCM (Mcm2-7) is a central regulatory target in eukaryotic replication. Chromatin-bound MCM is kept inactive during G1 phase and subsequently activated in S phase to initiate replication. During this transition, the only known chemical change on the Mcm2-7 proteins is the gain of multi-site phosphorylation that promotes recruitment of co-factors. As replication initiation is tied intimately to multiple biological cues, additional changes on these proteins can provide a second regulatory point. Here we describe a new MCM modification cycle mediated by SUMO that enables a negative regulation of replication initiation. We show that all MCM subunits undergo sumoylation upon loading at origins in G1 phase prior to MCM phosphorylation. Then bulk MCM sumoylation is lost as MCM phosphorylation rises. The pattern of MCM sumoylation suggests a negative role in replication. Indeed, increasing MCM sumoylation delays genome-wide replication initiation. Mechanistically, this is partly due to enhancing the recruitment of a conserved phosphatase that delays MCM phosphorylation and activation. By revealing a new MCM modification cycle and its role in replication, our findings suggest a new model, in which MCM sumoylation counterbalances kinase-based regulation to ensure accurate control of replication initiation.

Project description:Chromatin remodeling factors utilize ATP hydrolysis to modulate chromatin dynamics, and the Fun30-subfamily members in yeast and animals are a class of well-studied remodelers implicated in diverse biological processes. However, the molecular activity of plant Fun30 orthologues and their functions in plant growth still remain obscure yet. Compared with yeast and animal orthologues, Arabidopsis Fun30 possesses conserved ATP-dependent nucleosome sliding activity but loses the CUE domain functioning as protein adapter in evolution. Fun30 gene shows a tissue-specific expression pattern in vegetative meristems and various vascular tissues, and is functionally implicated in transcriptional repression of a large number of responsive genes under uninduced conditions. We focused on the interconnected phytohormones SA/JA pathways, and proved the Fun30 recruitment and changes of local nucleosome occupancy within chromatin regions of several key signaling and effector genes in each pathway. Besides SUVR2 involved in RdDM pathway, Fun30 also interacts with non-catalytic subunits of histone deacetylase complex, and Fun30-binding proteins exert in vitro TSA-inhibited histone deacetylase activity. In fun30 mutant, we detected increased H3 acetylation level within local chromatin regions of Fun30 target genes in vivo. Intriguingly, Fun30 transcription is severely inhibited by SA treatment, which thus releases its repression on SA-induced gene during the activation of the downstream SA pathway. Meanwhile, basal transcription level and JA-induced activation of key transcription factor MYC2 gene, as well as the consequent susceptibility to necrotrophic pathogen Botrytis cinerea, are abnormally increased in Fun30-deficient plants.

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are compacted into loops and topologically associating domains (TADs), which contribute to transcription, recombination and genomic stability. Cohesin extrudes DNA into loops that are thought to lengthen until it encounters CTCF boundaries. Little is known whether loop extrusion is impeded by macromolecular machines. We demonstrate that the replicative helicase MCM is a barrier that restricts loops and TADs in G1 phase. Single-nucleus Hi-C of one-cell embryos revealed that MCM loading reduces CTCF-anchored loops and increases TAD boundary insulation, suggesting loop extrusion is impeded before reaching CTCF. Single-molecule imaging provides evidence that MCM are physical barriers that constrain cohesin translocation in vitro. Simulations are consistent with MCM as abundant, random barriers with low permeability. We conclude that distinct loop extrusion barriers contribute to shaping 3D genomes.

Project description:The evolutionarily conserved ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling enzyme Fun30 has recently been shown to play important roles in heterochromatin silencing and DNA repair. However, how Fun30 remodels nucleosomes is not clear. Here we report a nucleosome sliding activity of Fun30 and its role in transcriptional repression. We observed that Fun30 repressed the expression of genes involved in amino acid and carbohydrate metabolism, the stress response, and meiosis. In addition, Fun30 was localized at the 5M-bM-^@M-2 and 3M-bM-^@M-2 ends of genes and within the open reading frames of its targets. Consistent with its role in gene repression, we observed that Fun30-target genes lacked histone modifications often associated with gene activation and showed an increased level of ubiquitinated histone H2B. Furthermore, genome-wide nucleosome mapping analysis revealed that the length of the nucleosome-free region at the 5M-bM-^@M-2 end of a subset of genes was changed in Fun30-depleted cells. In addition, the positions of the -1, +2 and +3 nucleosomes at the 5M-bM-^@M-2 end of target genes were significantly shifted, while position of the +1 nucleosome remained largely unchanged in the fun30M-NM-^T mutant. Finally, we demonstrated that affinity purified single-component Fun30 exhibited nucleosome sliding activity in an ATP-dependent manner. These results define a role for Fun30 in regulation of transcription and indicate that Fun30 remodels chromatin at the 5M-bM-^@M-2 end of genes by sliding promoter proximal nucleosomes. Micrococcal nuclease digested mononucleosome DNA from wild type and fun30D cells were sequenced by illumina Genome Analyzer. Genome-wide nucleosome positioning and occupancy were analyzed.
