Project description:Meiotic crossover formation requires the stabilization of early recombination intermediates by a set of proteins and occurs within the environment of the chromosome axis, a structure important for the regulation of meiotic recombination events. The molecular mechanisms underlying and connecting crossover recombination and axis localization are elusive. Here, we identified the ZZS (Zip2–Zip4–Spo16) complex, required for crossover formation, which carries two distinct activities: one provided by Zip4, which acts as hub through physical interactions with components of the chromosome axis and the crossover machinery, and the other carried by Zip2 and Spo16, which preferentially bind branched DNA molecules in vitro. We found that Zip2 and Spo16 share structural similarities to the structure-specific XPF–ERCC1 nuclease, although it lacks endonuclease activity. The XPF domain of Zip2 is required for crossover formation, suggesting that, together with Spo16, it has a noncatalytic DNA recognition function. Our results suggest that the ZZS complex shepherds recombination intermediates toward crossovers as a dynamic structural module that connects recombination events to the chromosome axis. The identification of the ZZS complex improves our understanding of the various activities required for crossover implementation and is likely applicable to other organisms, including mammals.

Project description:Proteins of the XPF-ERCC1 complex family play roles in DNA repair. Known members (four in mammals, two in budding yeast) recognize branched DNA structures and most bear nuclease activity. Here, we identified a new XPF-ERCC1-like complex important for meiotic crossovers production. Through a proteomic screen, we found that Zip2 and Spo16, two proteins important for CO formation in budding yeast, form a complex and share structural similarities with XPF-ERCC1. Zip2 XPF domain is important for CO formation and, in complex with Spo16, preferentially binds branched DNA molecules. However, Zip2-Spo16 lacks endonucleolytic activity. This suggests that Zip2-Spo16 works as a structural module that recognizes and stabilizes joint molecules to ensure CO formation. Moreover, Zip2-Spo16 forms a complex (called ZZS) with Zip4, another protein important for CO formation, which directly interacts with components of the chromosome axis, providing a link between recombination intermediates and the underlying chromosome structure.

Project description:During meiosis, Structural Maintenance of Chromosome (SMC) complexes underpin two fundamental features of meiosis: homologous recombination and chromosome segregation. While meiotic functions of the cohesin and condensin complexes have been delineated, the role of the third SMC complex, Smc5/6, remains enigmatic. Diminished Smc5/6 function causes severe defects in nuclear division, but the underlying causes of these defects remain unclear. Here we identify specific, essential meiotic functions for the Smc5/6 complex in homologous recombination and regulation of cohesin. We show that Smc5/6 is enriched at centromeres and cohesin-association sites where it regulates sister-chromatid cohesion and the timely removal of cohesin from chromosomal arms, respectively. Smc5/6 also localizes to recombination hotspots, where it promotes normal formation and resolution of joint-molecule intermediates. Furthermore, we find that Smc5/6 specifically promotes resolution of joint molecules via the XPF-family endonuclease, Mus81-Mms4Eme1. We propose that Smc5/6 acts as a chaperone for M-bM-^@M-^XmitoticM-bM-^@M-^Y-like recombination processes during meiosis. ChIP-chip was used to compare Smc5 localization in wild-type and spo11 strains

Project description:Interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) are highly toxic DNA lesions, which are repaired via a complex process that requires the coordination of several DNA repair pathways. Defects in ICL repair result in Fanconi anemia (FA), which is diagnosed with bone marrow failure, development abnormalities and high incidence of malignancies. SLX4, which is also known as FANCP, acts as a scaffold protein in coordinating multi-endonucleases that function in unhooking ICLs, resolving homologous recombination intermediates, and perhaps also removing unhooked ICLs. To reveal the underlying mechanism for the involvement of SLX4IP in ICL repair, we tagged SFB to the C terminus of SLX4IP and performed tandem affinity purification and mass spectrometry analysis as outlined above. We found SLX4 and XPF-ERCC1 at the top of the list of SLX4IP-binding proteins. We also identified some other potential SLX4IP interacting proteins, such as PASK, AJUBA, LRP4 and TRIM26, but none of them has been previously indicated to participate in DNA repair. SLX4 and XPF-ERCC1 are the major SLX4IP-interacting proteins, with or without MMC treatment. SLX4 has been shown to coordinate with XPF-ERCC1 and participate in the unhooking of ICLs during the repair process. The binding of SLX4IP to both SLX4 and XPF-ERCC1 intrigued us to further investigate whether SLX4IP plays a role in regulating SLX4-XPF-ERCC1 interaction.

Project description:Programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiate meiotic recombination and their subsequent repair culminates in crossover (CO) formation. COs result from the asymmetric cleavage of double-Holliday junction (dHJ) intermediates, that requires the MutLγ endonuclease and a non-catalytic function of Exo1, an activity essential for fertility but at risk of generating unwanted chromosome rearrangements. Here we show how crossover formation by MutLγ is activated at the right time and at the right place. MutLγ forms a constitutive complex with Exo1, and in meiotic cells transiently contacts the upstream MutSγ (Msh4-Msh5) heterodimer. MutLγ associates with DSB hotspots only once recombination intermediates have been stabilized and engaged in the crossover repair pathway. MutLγ-Exo1 is recruited to DSB hotspots independently of the polo-like Cdc5 kinase, but to activate dHJ resolution, Cdc5 is recruited to the recombination intermediates and interacts individually with both MutLγ and Exo1, suggesting their direct modification. in vivo, MutLγ occupancy is restrained on recombination intermediates, and MutLγ associates with the vast majority of DSB hotspots, but at a lower frequency in centromeres, consistent with a strategy to reduce at-risk crossover events in these regions, and in late replicating regions. Our data highlight the tight temporal and spatial control of the activity of this constitutive, potentially harmful, nuclease.

Project description:Meiotic crossover formation is critical for generating viable gametes and enhancing genetic diversity. The helicase Mer3 (HFM1 in humans) is a highly conserved factor essential for promoting crossovers and ensuring their proper distribution. Here, we identify replication protein A (RPA) as a direct interactor of budding yeast Mer3. We demonstrate that this interaction is conserved between human HFM1 and RPA. Cross-linking mass spectrometry and structural modelling with AlphaFold2 reveal a conserved and specific Mer3-RPA interface. Single-molecule magnetic tweezers assays demonstrate that direct RPA interaction is required for Mer3 helicase processivity under conditions of low DNA tension. Consistently, mer3 mutant deficient in RPA binding exhibit reduced crossover frequencies and accumulate unresolved recombination intermediates during budding yeast meiosis. Via genome-wide localisation experiments, we link this effect to a weakened recruitment to double-strand break sites of the mer3 mutant. Our findings provide mechanistic insights into coordination of meiotic recombination by the Mer3 helicase through interactions with the canonical DNA repair machinery, highlighting a conserved mechanism underlying crossover control during sexual reproduction.

Project description:Repairing broken chromosomes via joint molecule (JM) intermediates is hazardous and therefore strictly controlled in most organisms. Also in budding yeast meiosis, where production of enough crossovers via JMs is imperative, only a subset of DNA breaks are repaired via JMs, closely regulated by the ZMM pathway. The other breaks are repaired to non-crossovers avoiding JM formation requiring BLM/Sgs1 helicase. "Rogue" JMs that escaped the ZMM pathway and BLM/Sgs1 are eliminated before metaphase by resolvases like Mus81-Mms4 to prevent chromosome nondisjunction. 7 genome-wide meiotic ChIP-seq sets: 2 meiotic time points Smc6-myc DNA interaction (Smc6-ChIP), 2 meiotic time points Smc6-myc DNA interaction in the absence of induced recombination (Smc6-ChIP, spo11delta), 2 meiotic time points Sgs1-myc DNA interaction (Sgs1-ChIP), and 1 meiotic time point untagged as a negative control. (Corresponds to the main Figures 2 and 6, as well as to Figures S4, S7, in the associated publication.)

Project description:Several protein ensembles facilitate meiotic crossover recombination and the associated process of synaptonemal complex (SC) assembly during meiosis. We have employed proximity labeling as a phenotyping tool to investigate functional requirements for spatial relationships between meiotic recombination and SC proteins in S. cerevisiae, and to gain deeper insight into the molecular deficits of crossover-deficient meiotic mutants. We find that recombination initiation and synaptonemal complex structures are dispensable for proximity labeling of the Zip3 E3 ligase by components of the ZZS ensemble (Zip2, Zip4 and Spo16) but enzymes associated with early steps in recombination are required for Zip3 proximity labeling by MutSg, consistent with the possibility that MutSg joins Zip3 only after a specific recombination intermediate has been generated. Proximity labeling furthermore suggests that a key defect of crossover-defective, SC-proficient zip1 separation-of-function mutants is a failure to assemble an early recombination ensemble where MutSg can properly engage Zip3. We also find that the SC structural protein Ecm11 is proximity labeled by ZZS proteins in a Zip4-dependent and Zip1-independent manner, but by Zip3 and Msh4 at least in part via a distinct pathway that relies on Zip1. Finally, streptavidin pulldown followed by mass spectrometry on eleven proximity labeling strains uncovered shared proximity targets of SC and crossover-associated proteins, some of which have not yet been implicated in meiotic recombination or SC formation highlighting the potential of proximity labeling as a discovery tool.
