ATM and ATR are essential regulators of DNA damage checkpoints in mammalian cells through their respective effectors, Chk2 and Chk1. Cross regulation of the ATM-Chk2 and ATR-Chk1 pathways is very limited, although ATM and ATR show overlapping function in a partnership and time-dependent manner. In this study, we report that Chk2 is a substrate of ATR in response to ionizing and ultraviolet radiation. ATR activation induced by ionizing radiation (IR) is weak in ATM+/+ cells. However, when ATM is inhibited by caffeine, ATR activation is markedly enhanced. Total Chk2 and Chk2 Thr68 are also hyperphosphorylated in the presence of caffeine. Both ATM+/+ and ATM-/- cells display normal ATR activation in response to UV radiation-induced DNA damage, which is caffeine sensitive. In two lines of ATM-deficient, as well as in an ATM siRNA silencing cell line, ATR is activated when the cells are exposed to IR and is able to phosphorylate Chk2 in vitro. These observations suggest that ATR is one of the kinases that is likely involved in phosphorylation of Chk2 in response to IR when ATM is deficient. 相似文献

The replisome is important for DNA replication checkpoint activation, but how specific components of the replisome coordinate with ATR to activate Chk1 in human cells remains largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that And‐1, a replisome component, acts together with ATR to activate Chk1. And‐1 is phosphorylated at T826 by ATR following replication stress, and this phosphorylation is required for And‐1 to accumulate at the damage sites, where And‐1 promotes the interaction between Claspin and Chk1, thereby stimulating efficient Chk1 activation by ATR. Significantly, And‐1 binds directly to ssDNA and facilitates the association of Claspin with ssDNA. Furthermore, And‐1 associates with replication forks and is required for the recovery of stalled forks. These studies establish a novel ATR–And‐1 axis as an important regulator for efficient Chk1 activation and reveal a novel mechanism of how the replisome regulates the replication checkpoint and genomic stability. 相似文献

TopBP1, acting in concert with DNA containing bulky base lesions, stimulates ATR kinase activity under physiologically relevant reaction conditions. Here, we analyze the roles of the three components in ATR activation: DNA, base damage and TopBP1. We show that base adducts caused by a potent carcinogen, benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide (BPDE), constitute a strong signal for TopBP1-dependent ATR kinase activity on Chk1 and p53. We find that the C-terminus of TopBP1 binds preferentially to damaged DNA and is sufficient to mediate damaged DNA-dependent ATR activation in a manner similar to full-length TopBP1. Significantly, we find that stimulation of ATR by BPDE-damaged DNA exhibits strong dependence on the length of DNA, with essentially no stimulation with fragments of 0.2 kb and reaching maximum stimulation with 2 kb fragments. Moreover, TopBP1 shows preferential binding to longer DNA fragments and, in contrast to previous biochemical studies, TopBP1 binding is completely independent of DNA ends. We find that TopBP1 binds to circular and linear DNAs with comparable affinities and that these DNA forms elicit the same level of TopBP1-dependent ATR activation. Taken together, these findings suggest a cooperative activation mechanism for the ATR checkpoint kinase by TopBP1 and damaged DNA. 相似文献

Claspin is necessary for the ATR-dependent activation of Chk1 in Xenopus egg extracts containing incompletely replicated DNA. ATR possesses a regulatory partner called ATRIP. We have studied the respective roles of ATR-ATRIP and Claspin in the activation of Chk1. ATR-ATRIP bound well to various DNA templates in Xenopus egg extracts. ATR-ATRIP bound to a single-stranded DNA template was weakly active. By contrast, the ATR-ATRIP complex on a DNA template containing both single- and double-stranded regions displayed a large increase in kinase activity. This observation suggests that ATR-ATRIP normally undergoes activation upon association with specific nucleic acid structures at DNA replication forks. Without Claspin, activated ATR-ATRIP phosphorylated Chk1 weakly in a cell-free reaction. The addition of Claspin to this reaction strongly stimulated the phosphorylation of Chk1 by ATR-ATRIP. Claspin also induced significant autophosphorylation of Chk1 in the absence of ATR-ATRIP. Taken together, these results indicate that the checkpoint-dependent phosphorylation of Chk1 is a multistep process involving activation of the ATR-ATRIP complex at replication forks and presentation of Chk1 to this complex by Claspin. 相似文献

The ataxia-telangiectasia mutated and RAD3-related (ATR) kinase initiates DNA damage signaling pathways in human cells after DNA damage such as that induced upon exposure to ultraviolet light by phosphorylating many effector proteins including the checkpoint kinase Chk1. The conventional view of ATR activation involves a universal signal consisting of genomic regions of replication protein A-covered single-stranded DNA. However, there are some indications that the ATR-mediated checkpoint can be activated by other mechanisms. Here, using the well defined Escherichia coli lac repressor/operator system, we have found that directly tethering the ATR activator topoisomerase IIβ-binding protein 1 (TopBP1) to DNA is sufficient to induce ATR phosphorylation of Chk1 in an in vitro system as well as in vivo in mammalian cells. In addition, we find synergistic activation of ATR phosphorylation of Chk1 when the mediator protein Claspin is also tethered to the DNA with TopBP1. Together, these findings indicate that crowding of checkpoint mediator proteins on DNA is sufficient to activate the ATR kinase. 相似文献

We show that Claspin, an adaptor protein required for Chk1 activation, becomes degraded at the onset of mitosis. Claspin degradation was triggered by its interaction with, and ubiquitylation by, the SCFbetaTrCP ubiquitin ligase. This interaction was phosphorylation dependent and required the activity of the Plk1 kinase and the integrity of a betaTrCP recognition motif (phosphodegron) in the N terminus of Claspin. Uncoupling of Claspin from betaTrCP by mutating the conserved serines in Claspin's phosphodegron or by knocking down betaTrCP stabilized Claspin in mitosis, impaired Chk1 dephosphorylation, and delayed G2/M transition during recovery from cell cycle arrest imposed by DNA damage or replication stress. Moreover, the inability to degrade Claspin allowed partial reactivation of Chk1 in cells exposed to DNA damage after passing the G2/M transition. Our data suggest that degradation of Claspin facilitates timely reversal of the checkpoint response and delineates the period permissive for Chk1 activation during cell cycle progression. 相似文献

TopBP1-like proteins, which include Xenopus laevis Xmus101, are required for DNA replication and have been linked to replication checkpoint control. A direct role for TopBP1/Mus101 in checkpoint control has been difficult to prove, however, because of the requirement for replication in generating the DNA structures that activate the checkpoint. Checkpoint activation occurs in X. laevis egg extracts upon addition of an oligonucleotide duplex (AT70). We show that AT70 bypasses the requirement for replication in checkpoint activation. We take advantage of this replication-independent checkpoint system to determine the role of Xmus101 in the checkpoint. We find that Xmus101 is essential for AT70-mediated checkpoint signaling and that it functions to promote phosphorylation of Claspin bound Chk1 by the ataxia-telangiectasia and Rad-3-related (ATR) protein kinase. We also identify a separation-of-function mutant of Xmus101. In extracts expressing this mutant, replication of sperm chromatin occurs normally; however, the checkpoint response to stalled replication forks fails. These data demonstrate that Xmus101 functions directly during signal relay from ATR to Chk1. 相似文献

Claspin is a checkpoint protein involved in ATR (ataxia telangiectasia mutated- and Rad3-related)-dependent Chk1 activation in Xenopus and human cells. In Xenopus, Claspin interacts with Chk1 after DNA damage through a region containing two highly conserved repeats, which becomes phosphorylated during the checkpoint response. Because this region is also conserved in human Claspin, we investigated the regulation and function of these potential phosphorylation sites in human Claspin. We found that Claspin is phosphorylated in vivo at Thr-916 in response to replication stress and UV damage. Mutation of these phosphorylation sites on Claspin inhibited Claspin-Chk1 interaction in vivo, impaired Chk1 activation, and induced premature chromatin condensation in cells, indicating a defect in replication checkpoint. In addition, we found that Thr-916 on Claspin is phosphorylated by Chk1, suggesting that Chk1 regulates Claspin during checkpoint response. These results together indicate that phosphorylation of Claspin repeats in human Claspin is important for Claspin function and the regulation of Claspin-Chk1 interaction in human cells. 相似文献

Hyperthermia is widely used to treat patients with cancer, especially in combination with other treatments such as radiation therapy. Heat treatment per se activates DNA damage responses mediated by the ATR-Chk1 and ATM-Chk2 pathways but it is not fully understood how these DNA damage responses are activated and affect heat tolerance. By performing a genetic analysis of human HeLa cells and chicken B lymphoma DT40 cells, we found that heat-induced Chk1 Ser345 phosphorylation by ATR was largely dependent on Rad9, Rad17, TopBP1 and Claspin. Activation of the ATR-Chk1 pathway by heat, however, was not associated with FancD2 monoubiquitination or RPA32 phosphorylation, which are known as downstream events of ATR kinase activation when replication forks are stalled. Downregulation of ATR, Rad9, Rad17, TopBP1 or Claspin drastically reduced clonogenic cell viability upon hyperthermia, while gene knockout or inhibition of ATM kinase reduced clonogenic viability only modestly. Suppression of the ATR-Chk1 pathway activation enhanced heat-induced phosphorylation of Chk2 Thr68 and simultaneous inhibition of ATR and ATM kinases rendered severe heat cytotoxicity. These data indicate that essential factors for activation of the ATR-Chk1 pathway at stalled replication forks are also required for heat-induced activation of ATR kinase, which predominantly contributes to heat tolerance in a non-overlapping manner with ATM kinase. 相似文献

Chk1 protein kinase plays a critical role in checkpoints that restrict progression through the cell cycle if DNA replication has not been completed or DNA damage has been sustained. ATR-dependent activation of Chk1 is mediated by Claspin. Phosphorylation of Claspin at two sites (Thr916 and Ser945 in humans) in response to DNA replication arrest or DNA damage recruits Chk1 to Claspin. Chk1 is subsequently phosphorylated by ATR and fully activated to control cell cycle progression. We show that ablation of Chk1 by siRNA in human cells or its genetic deletion in chicken DT40 cells does not prevent phosphorylation of Claspin at Thr916 (Ser911 in chicken). Chk1, however, does play other roles, possibly indirect, in the phosphorylation of Claspin and its induction. These results demonstrate that phosphorylation of Claspin within the Chk1-binding domain is catalysed by an ATR-dependent kinase distinct from Chk1. 相似文献

The ATR and Chk1 kinases are essential to maintain genomicintegrity. ATR, with Claspin and the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 complex,activates Chk1 after DNA damage. Chk1-mediated phosphorylation ofthe Cdc25A phosphatase is required for the mammalian S-phasecheckpoint. Here, we show that during physiological S phase theregulation of the Chk1-Cdc25A pathway depends on ATR, Claspin,Rad9, and Hus1. Human cells with chemically or genetically ablatedATR showed inhibition of Chk1-dependent phosphorylation of Cdc25A,and they accumulated Cdc25A without external DNA damage.Furthermore, siRNA-mediated depletion of Claspin, Rad9 and Hus1also stabilized Cdc25A. ATR ablation also inhibited the activatoryphosphorylation of Chk1 on serine 345. Thus, the ATR-Chk1-Cdc25Apathway represents an integral part of physiological S-phaseprogression, and interference with this mechanism underminesviability of somatic mammalian cells. DNA damage further activatesand switches this pathway from its constitutively operating“surveillance mode” compatible with DNA replication into an“emergency” checkpoint response. 相似文献

Claspin is required for the ATR-dependent activation of Chk1 in Xenopus egg extracts containing incompletely replicated DNA. We show here that Claspin associates with chromatin in a regulated manner during S phase. Binding of Claspin to chromatin depends on the pre-replication complex (pre-RC) and Cdc45 but not on replication protein A (RPA). These dependencies suggest that binding of Claspin occurs around the time of initial DNA unwinding at replication origins. By contrast, both ATR and Rad17 require RPA for association with DNA. Claspin, ATR, and Rad17 all bind to chromatin independently. These findings suggest that Claspin plays a role in monitoring DNA replication during S phase. Claspin, ATR, and Rad17 may collaborate in checkpoint regulation by detecting different aspects of a DNA replication fork. 相似文献

The checkpoint mediator protein Claspin facilitates the phosphorylation and activation of Chk1 by ATR and thus is required for efficient DNA replication. However, the physical association of Claspin homologues with replication factors and forks suggests that it might have additional functions in controlling DNA replication. DNA combing was used to examine the functions of Chk1 and Claspin at individual forks and to determine whether Claspin functions independently of Chk1. We find that Claspin, like Chk1, regulates fork stability and density in unperturbed cells. As expected, Chk1 regulates origin firing predominantly by controlling Cdk2-Cdc25 function. By contrast, Claspin functions independently of the Cdc25-Cdk2 pathway in mammalian cells. The findings support a model in which Claspin plays a role regulating replication fork stability that is independent of its function in mediating Chk1 phosphorylation. 相似文献

In vertebrates, the checkpoint-regulatory kinase Chk1 mediates cell-cycle arrest in response to a block in DNA replication or to DNA damaged by ultraviolet radiation. The activation of Chk1 depends on both Claspin and the upstream regulatory kinase ATR. Claspin is a large acidic protein that becomes phosphorylated and binds to Chk1 in the presence of checkpoint-inducing DNA templates in Xenopus egg extracts. Here we identify, by means of deletion analysis, a region of Claspin of 57 amino acids that is both necessary and sufficient for binding to Xenopus Chk1. This Chk1-binding domain contains two highly conserved repeats of approximately ten amino acids. A serine residue in each repeat (serine 864 and serine 895) undergoes phosphorylation during a checkpoint response. A mutant of Claspin containing non-phosphorylatable amino acids at positions 864 and 895 cannot bind to Chk1 and is unable to mediate its activation. Our results indicate that two phosphopeptide motifs in Claspin are essential for checkpoint signalling. 相似文献

The mediator protein Claspin is critical for the activation of the checkpoint kinase Chk1 during checkpoint responses to stalled replication forks. This function involves the Chk1-activating domain (CKAD) of Claspin, which undergoes phosphorylation on multiple conserved sites. These phosphorylations promote binding of Chk1 to Claspin and ensuing activation of Chk1 by ATR. However, despite the importance of this regulatory process, the kinase responsible for these phosphorylations has remained unknown. By using a multifaceted approach, we have found that casein kinase 1 gamma 1 (CK1γ1) carries out this function. CK1γ1 phosphorylates the CKAD of Claspin efficiently in vitro, and depletion of CK1γ1 from human cells by small interfering RNA (siRNA) results in dramatically diminished phosphorylation of Claspin. Consequently, the siRNA-treated cells display impaired activation of Chk1 and resultant checkpoint defects. These results indicate that CK1γ1 is a novel component of checkpoint responses that controls the interaction of a key checkpoint effector kinase with its cognate mediator protein. 相似文献

ATM (ataxia-telangiectasia mutated) is necessary for activation of Chk1 by ATR (ATM and Rad3-related) in response to double-stranded DNA breaks (DSBs) but not to DNA replication stress. TopBP1 has been identified as a direct activator of ATR. We show that ATM regulates Xenopus TopBP1 by phosphorylating Ser-1131 and thereby strongly enhancing association of TopBP1 with ATR. Xenopus egg extracts containing a mutant of TopBP1 that cannot be phosphorylated on Ser-1131 are defective in the ATR-dependent phosphorylation of Chk1 in response to DSBs but not to DNA replication stress. Thus, TopBP1 is critical for the ATM-dependent activation of ATR following production of DSBs in the genome. 相似文献

Regulation of the vertebrate checkpoint kinase Chk1 involves several protein complexes including the recently identified protein Claspin. Claspin associates with Chk1 upon replication stress and DNA damage and is required for Chk1 activation in both Xenopus and human systems. More importantly, Claspin is involved in regulation of cell cycle checkpoints. Here, we discuss the emerging roles of Claspin in the Chk1 pathway and its functions in checkpoint control. 相似文献
