Project description:Across eukaryotes, inhibition of the progression of the DNA replication machinery causes an S-phase checkpoint response. This response regulates multiple processes, including inhibition of replication initiation and fork stabilisation. How these events are coordinated remains poorly understood. Here we show that the replicative helicase component Cdc45 targets the checkpoint kinase Rad53 to distinct replication complexes in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Rad53 binds to FHA-interaction motifs in an unstructured loop region of Cdc45, which is phosphorylated by Rad53 itself, and this interaction is necessary for the inhibition of origin firing through Sld3. In addition to regulating replication initiation, Cdc45 also recruits Rad53 to stalled replication forks, which we demonstrate is important for the response to replication stress. Finally we show that a Cdc45 mutation that is orthologous to an allele found in patients with Meier-Gorlin Syndrome disrupts the functional interaction with Rad53. Together we present a single mechanism by which Rad53 targets replication initiation and elongation complexes, which may be relevant to human disease.

Project description:The influence of mono-ubiquitylation of histone H2B (H2Bub) on transcription via nucleosome reassembly has been widely documented. Recently, it has also been shown that H2Bub promotes recovery from replication stress; however, the underling molecular mechanism remains unclear. Here, we show that H2B ubiquitylation coordinates activation of the intra-S replication checkpoint and chromatin re-assembly, in order to limit fork progression and DNA damage in the presence of replication stress. In particular, we show that the absence of H2Bub affects replication dynamics (enhanced fork progression and reduced origin firing), leading to γH2A accumulation and increased hydroxyurea sensitivity. Further genetic analysis indicates a role for H2Bub in transducing Rad53 phosphorylation. Concomitantly, we found that a change in replication dynamics is not due to a change in dNTP level, but is mediated by reduced Rad53 activation and destabilization of the RecQ helicase Sgs1 at the fork. Furthermore, we demonstrate that H2Bub facilitates the dissociation of the histone chaperone Asf1 from Rad53, and nucleosome reassembly behind the fork is compromised in cells lacking H2Bub. Taken together, these results indicate that the regulation of H2B ubiquitylation is a key event in the maintenance of genome stability, through coordination of intra-S checkpoint activation, chromatin assembly and replication fork progression. S.cerevisiae oligonucleotide microarrays were provided by Affymetrix (S.cerevisiae Tiling 1.0R, P/N 900645). BrdU and proteins ChIP-chip analyses were carried out as described (Fachinetti et al., M Cell, 2010).

Project description:Replication stress activates the Mec1ATR and Rad53 kinases. Rad53 phosphorylates nuclear pores to counteract gene gating, thus preventing aberrant transitions at forks approaching transcribed genes. Here, we show that Rrm3 and Pif1, DNA helicases assisting fork progression across pausing sites, are detrimental in rad53 mutants experiencing replication stress. Rrm3 and Pif1 ablations rescue cell lethality, chromosome fragmentation, replisome-fork dissociation, fork reversal, and processing in rad53 cells. Through phosphorylation, Rad53 regulates Rrm3 and Pif1; phospho-mimicking rrm3 mutants ameliorate rad53 phenotypes following replication stress without affecting replication across pausing elements under normal conditions. Hence, the Mec1-Rad53 axis protects fork stability by regulating nuclear pores and DNA helicases. We propose that following replication stress, forks stall in an asymmetric conformation by inhibiting Rrm3 and Pif1, thus impeding lagging strand extension and preventing fork reversal; conversely, under unperturbed conditions, the peculiar conformation of forks encountering pausing sites would depend on active Rrm3 and Pif1. BrdU incorporation profiles by ssDNA-BrdU IP on chip have been generated as described (Katou et al., 2003). Protein binding profiles by ChIP-chip analysis were generated as described (Bermejo et al., 2009). Labeled probes were hybridized to Affymetrix S.cerevisiae Tiling 1.0 (P/N 900645) arrays and processed with TAS software.

Project description:DNA topoisomerases solve topological problems during chromosome metabolism. We investigated where and when Top1 and Top2 are recruited on replicating chromosomes and how their inactivation affects fork integrity and DNA damage checkpoint activation. We show that, in the context of replicating chromatin, Top1 and Top2 act within a 600 bp region spanning the moving forks. Top2 exhibits additional S-phase clusters at specific intergenic loci, mostly containing promoters. TOP1 ablation does not affect fork progression and stability and does not cause activation of the Rad53 checkpoint kinase. top2 mutants accumulate sister chromatid junctions in S phase without affecting fork progression and activate Rad53 at the M/G1 transition. top1 top2 double mutants exhibit fork block and processing, and phosphorylation of Rad53 and γH2A in S phase. The exonuclease Exo1 influences fork processing and DNA damage checkpoint activation in top1 top2 mutants. Our data are consistent with a coordinated action of Top1 and Top2 in counteracting the accumulation of torsional stress and sister chromatid entanglement at replication forks, thus preventing the diffusion of topological changes along large chromosomal regions. A failure in resolving fork-related topological constrains during S phase may therefore result in abnormal chromosome transitions, DNA damage checkpoint activation and chromosome breakage during segregation.

Project description:DNA polymerase epsilon (Pole) carries out leading strand synthesis with high fidelity owing to its exonuclease activity. Pole polymerase and exonuclease activities are in balance, due to partitioning of nascent strands between catalytic sites, so that net end resection occurs when synthesis is impaired. Stalling of chromosomal DNA synthesis activates replication checkpoint kinases, required to preserve the functional integrity of replication forks. We found that Pole is phosphorylated in a Rad53CHK1-dependent manner upon fork stalling, likely to limit Pole-driven nascent strand resection that causes replication fork collapse. In stress conditions Pole phosphorylation occurs on serine 430 of the Pol2 catalytic subunit. A S430 phosphomimic limits strand partitioning and exonucleolytic processivity, while non-phosphorylatable Pol2-S430A bypasses checkpoint regulation causing stalled fork resection and collapse. We propose that checkpoint kinases switch Pole to an exonuclease-safe mode by curbing active site partitioning thus preventing nascent strand resection and stabilizing stalled replication forks.

Project description:DNA replication progression can be affected by the presence of physical barriers on the DNA, like RNA Polymerases, leading to replication stress and DNA damage. To characterize what happens at sites where DNA replication forks stall and pause, we establish a genome-wide approach to identify them. This approach uses multiple timepoints during S-phase, to identify replication fork/stalling hotspots throughout the genome. These sites are typically associated with increased DNA damage, overlap with fragile sites and with breakpoints of rearrangements identified in cancers, but do not overlap with replication origins. Overlaying these sites with a genome-wide analysis of RNA Polymerase II transcription, we found that replication fork stalling/pausing sites inside genes are directly related to transcription progression and activity. This would support data that indicate that transcription and replication can coexist over the same regions. We found instances where transcription activity by reducing histone density favors replication progression through genes, but also found that slowing down transcription elongation slows down directly replication progression through genes. Importantly, rearrangements found in cancers at transcription-replication collision sites can be detected in non-transformed cells and increased following treatment with ATM and ATR inhibitors. Altogether, our findings highlight how transcription and replication overlap during S-phase, with both positive and negative consequences for replication fork progression and genome stability.
