Restarting Stalled Replication Forks

6.2K
DNA replication is initiated at sites containing predefined DNA sequences known as origins of replication. DNA is unwound at these sites by the minichromosome maintenance (MCM) helicase and other factors such as Cdc45 and the associated GINS complex.The unwound single strands are protected by replication protein A (RPA) until DNA polymerase starts synthesizing DNA at the 5’ end of the strand in the same direction as the replication fork. To prevent the replication fork from falling apart,...

S-Cdk Initiates DNA Replication

The cell cycle is a series of events leading to DNA duplication followed by the division of cell content to form two daughter cells. The cell cycle progresses in four stages—the cell increases in size (gap 1 or G1-phase), duplicates its DNA (synthesis or S-phase), prepares to divide (gap 2 or G2-phase), and divides (mitosis or M-phase).
Two states at the origin of replication
In eukaryotes, the initiation of replication occurs at many sites on the chromosomes, called the origins of...

In response to DNA damage, cells can pause the cell cycle to assess and repair the breaks. However, the cell must check the DNA at certain critical stages during the cell cycle. If the cell cycle pauses before DNA replication, the cells will contain twice the amount of DNA. On the other hand, if cells arrest after DNA replication but before mitosis, they will contain four times the normal amount of DNA. With a host of specialized proteins at their disposal,cells must use the right protein at...

The Replisome

DNA replication is carried out by a large complex of proteins that act in a coordinated matter to achieve high-fidelity DNA replication. Together this complex is known as the DNA replication machinery or the replisome.
The synthesis of the leading and lagging strands is a highly coordinated process. To explain this, the “Trombone model” was proposed by Bruce Alberts in 1980. The DNA loop formation starts when a primer is synthesized on the parent lagging strand. The loop grows with...

Replication in Eukaryotes

17.0K
In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication is highly conserved and tightly regulated. Multiple linear chromosomes must be duplicated with high fidelity before cell division, so there are many proteins that fulfill specialized roles in the replication process. Replication occurs in three phases: initiation, elongation, and termination, and ends with two complete sets of chromosomes in the nucleus.
Many Proteins Orchestrate Replication at the Origin
Eukaryotic replication follows many of the same...

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Cell Biology
  • Genetics

Background:

  • Disabled homolog 2 interacting protein (DAB2IP) is a known tumor suppressor involved in cell cycle regulation.
  • Previous studies linked DAB2IP to mitosis progression via PLK1.
  • The precise role of DAB2IP in DNA replication remained unclear.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the novel function of DAB2IP in DNA replication origin firing.
  • To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying DAB2IP's role in DNA replication.
  • To understand how DAB2IP contributes to maintaining genome integrity.

Main Methods:

  • Nuclear localization and interaction studies of DAB2IP.
  • Analysis of HBO1 and PLK1 interactions and phosphorylation.
  • Assessment of histone H3 acetylation (H3K14Ac) and MCM complex loading.
  • Investigation of ATR and CDK1 regulation of DAB2IP phosphorylation.
  • Evaluation of genomic instability markers upon DAB2IP ablation or phosphorylation defects.

Main Results:

  • DAB2IP interacts with HBO1 in the nucleus, enhancing HBO1-PLK1 interaction and PLK1-mediated HBO1 phosphorylation.
  • HBO1-directed H3K14Ac facilitates minichromosome maintenance (MCM) complex loading onto chromatin.
  • ATR-regulated CDK1-mediated phosphorylation of DAB2IP is essential for HBO1-PLK1 complex formation and activation.
  • Loss of DAB2IP phosphorylation leads to genomic instability, incomplete DNA replication, and accumulation of ultrafine bridges and 53BP1 bodies.

Conclusions:

  • DAB2IP plays a critical role in initiating DNA replication by regulating HBO1 activity.
  • DAB2IP phosphorylation by CDK1 is vital for DNA replication and genomic stability.
  • These findings reveal a novel mechanism for DAB2IP in maintaining cellular homeostasis through DNA replication control.
