DNA replication is an essential process that occurs in all growing cells and needs to be tightly regulated in order to preserve genetic integrity. Eukaryotic cells have developed multiple mechanisms to ensure the fidelity of replication and to coordinate the progression of replication forks. Replication is often impeded by DNA damage or replication blocks, and the resulting stalled replication forks are sensed and protected by specialized surveillance mechanisms called checkpoints. The replication checkpoint plays an essential role in preventing the breakdown of stalled replication forks and the accumulation of DNA structures that enhance recombination and chromosomal rearrangements that ultimately lead to genomic instability and cancer development. In addition, the replication checkpoint is thought to assist and coordinate replication fork restart processes by controlling DNA repair pathways, regulating chromatin structure, promoting the recruitment of proteins to sites of damage, and controlling cell cycle progression. In this review we focus mainly on the results obtained in budding yeast to discuss on the multiple roles of checkpoints in maintaining fork integrity and on the enzymatic activities that cooperate with the checkpoint pathway to promote fork resumption and repair of DNA lesions thereby contributing to genome integrity. 相似文献

The Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway plays a central role in the repair of DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) and regulates cellular responses to replication stress. Homologous recombination (HR), the error‐free pathway for double‐strand break (DSB) repair, is required during physiological cell cycle progression for the repair of replication‐associated DNA damage and protection of stalled replication forks. Substantial crosstalk between the two pathways has recently been unravelled, in that key HR proteins such as the RAD51 recombinase and the tumour suppressors BRCA1 and BRCA2 also play important roles in ICL repair. Consistent with this, rare patient mutations in these HR genes cause FA pathologies and have been assigned FA complementation groups. Here, we focus on the clinical and mechanistic implications of the connection between these two cancer susceptibility syndromes and on how these two molecular pathways of DNA replication and repair interact functionally to prevent genomic instability. 相似文献

DNA replication fidelity plays fundamental role in faithful transmission of genetic material during cell division and during transfer of genetic material from parents to progeny. Replicative polymerases are the main guardian responsible for high replication fidelity of genomic DNA. DNA main replicative polymerases are also involved in many DNA repair processes. High fidelity of DNA replication is determined by correct nucleotide selectivity in polymerase active center, and exonucleolytic proofreading that removes mismatches from primer terminus. In this article we will focus on the mechanisms that are responsible for high fidelity of replications with the special emphasis on structural studies showing important conformational changes after substrate binding. We will also stress the importance of hydrogen bonding, base pair geometry, polymerase DNA interactions and the role of accessory proteins in replication fidelity. 相似文献

Bulky adducts to DNA including DNA-protein crosslinks formed with trans-platinum(II)diammine-dichloride are repaired largely by the nucleotide excision pathway in mammalian cells. The discovery in this laboratory that cells deficient in nucleotide excision repair, i.e., SV40-virus transformed SV-XP20S cells, can efficiently repair DNA-protein crosslinks implicates a second pathway. In this report, details concerning this pathway are presented. DNA-protein crosslinks induced with 20 microM trans-platinum were assayed by the membrane alkaline elution procedure of Kohn. DNA replication was measured by CsCl gradient separation of newly synthesized DNA that had incorporated 5-bromodeoxyuridine. The following results indicate that this new repair pathway is associated with cell cycling: Whereas rapidly proliferating human cells deficient in excision repair (SV40 transformed XP20S, group A) are proficient in repair of DNA-protein crosslinks, the more slowly growing untransformed parent line is deficient but can complete repair after prolonged periods of 4-6 days, the approximate doubling time of the cell population. Either "used" culture medium or cycloheximide (1 microgram/ml) inhibits cell proliferation, protein synthesis, DNA replication and crosslink repair. In the presence of increasing concentrations of cycloheximide (0.01-5 micrograms/ml) the percent of DNA replication decreases and is essentially equivalent to the percent of crosslink repair. The following results indicate that this new repair pathway, though associated with cell cycling, is independent of DNA replication per se. The rates of DNA-protein crosslink repair and DNA replication are essentially the same in mouse L1210 cells rapidly proliferating in 20% serum supplement; however, to slower proliferation rates in 1% serum rate of crosslink repair is slower but differs from that of DNA replication. In the presence of aphidicolin (10 micrograms/ml) cells can repair DNA-protein crosslinks in virtually the complete absence of DNA replication, though the rate is slower in both nucleotide excision-proficient and -deficient cells. Thus, DNA replication is not essential for repair of DNA-protein crosslinks. Comparison of the kinetics of replication and DNA-protein crosslink repair of pulse-labeled indicates that, in the absence of metabolic inhibitors, repair of the crosslinks is independent of replication per se and, therefore, DNA recombination events are not involved in this repair process. We conclude, therefore, that the new repair pathway is not coupled with DNA replication but is with cell cycling. 相似文献

Precise genome duplication requires accurate copying by DNA polymerases and the elimination of occasional mistakes by proofreading exonucleases and mismatch repair enzymes. The commonly held belief that 'if something is worth doing, then it's worth doing well' normally applies to DNA replication and repair, however, there are exceptions. This review describes elements that are crucial to cell fitness, evolution and survival in the recently discovered error-prone DNA polymerases. Large numbers of errant DNA polymerases, spanning microorganisms to humans, are used to rescue stalled replication forks by copying damaged DNA and even undamaged DNA to generate 'purposeful' mutations that generate genetic diversity in times of stress. Here we focus on low-fidelity polymerases from bacteria, comparing Escherichia coli, archeabacteria and those most recently discovered in Gram-positive Bacilli, Streptococcus, pathogenic Mycobacterium and intein-containing cyanobacteria. 相似文献

DNA ligase I is the main DNA ligase activity involved in eukaryotic DNA replication acting in the joining of Okazaki fragments. This enzyme is also implicated in nucleotide excision repair and in the long-patch base excision repair while its role in the recombinational repair pathways is poorly understood. DNA ligase I is phosphorylated during cell cycle at several serine and threonine residues that regulate its participation in different DNA transactions by modulating the interaction with different protein partners. Here we use an antibody-based array method to identify novel DNA ligase-interacting partners. We show that DNA ligase I participates in several multiprotein complexes with proteins involved in DNA replication and repair, cell cycle control, and protein modification. In particular we demonstrate that DNA ligase I complexes with Nbs1, a core component of the MRN complex critical for detection, processing and repair of double-stranded DNA breaks. The analysis of epitope tagged DNA ligase I mutants demonstrates that the association is mediated by the catalytic fragment of the enzyme. DNA ligase I and Nbs1 colocalize at replication factories during unperturbed replication and after treatment with DNA damaging agents. Since MRN complex is involved in the repair of double-stranded DNA breaks by homologous recombination at stalled replication forks our data support the notion that DNA ligase I participates in homology dependent pathways that deal with replication-associated lesions generated when replication fork encounters DNA damage. 相似文献

Rescue of replication failure by Fanconi anaemia proteins 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Constantinou A 《Chromosoma》2012,121(1):21-36
Chromosomal aberrations are often associated with incomplete genome duplication, for instance at common fragile sites, or
as a consequence of chemical alterations in the DNA template that block replication forks. Studies of the cancer-prone disease
Fanconi anaemia (FA) have provided important insights into the resolution of replication problems. The repair of interstrand
DNA crosslinks induced by chemotherapy drugs is coupled with DNA replication and controlled by FA proteins. We discuss here
the recent discovery of new FA-associated proteins and the development of new tractable repair systems that have dramatically
improved our understanding of crosslink repair. We focus also on how FA proteins protect against replication failure in the
context of fragile sites and on the identification of reactive metabolites that account for the development of Fanconi anaemia
symptoms. 相似文献

聚腺苷二磷酸-核糖聚合酶1(poly ADP-ribose polymerase-1,PARP1)是细胞中重要的修饰酶,其最广为人知的作用是通过自身PAR修饰,募集以XRCC1为首的多种DNA损伤修复效应蛋白质,参与DNA单、双链损伤修复。PARP1还能通过促进复制叉停滞与核小体解聚,为DNA损伤修复提供有利条件,维持基因组稳定性。近年来,除DNA损伤修复方面的作用,还发现PARP1能影响细胞凋亡、自噬与炎症通路,与神经退行性疾病的发生发展密切相关。而PARP抑制剂(PARP inhibitor,PARPi)是一种靶向PARP1,与细胞同源重组(homologous recombination,HR)缺陷表型共同作用,产生合成致死效应的抗肿瘤药物。该药物可捕获PARP1并抑制其活性,一方面直接干扰PARP1参与的DNA损伤修复通路,另一方面也抑制了PARP1介导的DNA损伤修复通路选择和复制叉停滞,使细胞基因组不稳定。然而,在临床治疗中常发现肿瘤细胞对PARPi不敏感。肿瘤细胞对PARPi耐药与自身基因突变高度相关,这些基因分别作用于细胞HR修复途径、PARP1循环途径、复制叉稳定性和药物主动外排等方面,在耐药肿瘤患者中确定具体的突变位点,将为临床治疗提供帮助。本文旨在对PARP1的功能作一综述,并重点介绍PARPi的作用机制和与肿瘤耐药相关的突变基因及其耐药机制,以期加深对细胞中PARP1介导的DNA损伤修复通路的认识,并为将来的临床治疗提供新思路。 相似文献

Postreplication repair facilitates tolerance of DNA damage during replication, overcoming termination of replication at sites of DNA damage. A major post-replication repair pathway in mammalian cells is translesion synthesis, which is carried out by specialized polymerase(s), such as polymerase eta, and is identified by focus formation by the polymerase after irradiation with UVC light. The formation of these foci depends on RAD18, which ubiquitinates PCNA for the exchange of polymerases. To understand the initial processes in translesion synthesis, we have here analyzed the response to damage of RAD18 in human cells. We find that human RAD18 accumulates very rapidly and remains for a long period of time at sites of different types of DNA damage, including UVC light-induced lesions, and x-ray microbeam- and laser-induced single-strand breaks, in a cell cycle-independent manner. The accumulation of RAD18 at DNA damage is observed even when DNA replication is inhibited, and a small region containing a zinc finger motif located in the middle of RAD18 is essential and sufficient for the replication-independent damage accumulation. The zinc finger motif of RAD18 is not necessary for UV-induced polymerase eta focus formation, but another SAP (SAF-A/B, Acinus and PIAS) motif near the zinc finger is required. These data indicate that RAD18 responds to DNA damage in two distinct ways, one replication-dependent and one replication-independent, involving the SAP and zinc finger motifs, respectively. 相似文献

Eukaryotic genomes are especially vulnerable to DNA damage during the S phase of the cell cycle, when chromosomes must be duplicated. The stability of DNA replication forks is critical to achieve faithful chromosome replication and is severely compromised when forks encounter DNA lesions. To maintain genome integrity, replication forks need to be protected by the S-phase checkpoint and DNA insults must be repaired. Different pathways help to repair or tolerate the lesions in the DNA, but their contribution to the progression of replication forks through damaged DNA is not well known. Here we show in budding yeast that, when the DNA template is damaged with the alkylating agent methyl methanesulfonate (MMS), base excision repair, homologous recombination and DNA damage tolerance pathways, together with a functional S-phase checkpoint, are essential for the efficient progression of DNA replication forks and the maintenance of cell survival. In the absence of base excision repair, replication forks stall reversibly in cells exposed to MMS. This repair reaction is necessary to eliminate the lesions that impede fork progression and has to be coordinated with recombination and damage tolerance activities to avoid fork collapse and allow forks to resume and complete chromosome replication. 相似文献

The tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 was cloned in 1994 based on its linkage to early-onset breast and ovarian cancer. Although the BRCA1 protein has been implicated in multiple cellular functions, the precise mechanism that determines its tumor suppressor activity is not defined. Currently, the emerging picture is that BRCA1 plays an important role in maintaining genomic integrity by protecting cells from double-strand breaks (DSB) that arise during DNA replication or after DNA damage. The DSB repair pathways available in mammalian cells are homologous recombination and nonhomologous end-joining. BRCA1 function seems to be regulated by specific phosphorylations in response to DNA damage and we will focus this review on the roles played by BRCA1 in DNA repair and cell cycle checkpoints. Finally, we will explore the idea that tumor suppression by BRCA1 depends on its control of DNA DSB repair, resulting in the promotion of error-free and the inhibition of error-prone recombinational repair. 相似文献

DNA replication is a complex mechanism that functions due to the coordinated interplay of many factors. In the last few years, numerous studies have suggested that DNA replication factors are closely implicated in several DNA transaction events that maintain the integrity of the genome. Therefore, DNA replication fork factors have to be considered as part of a general process that aims to protect and replicate the genome in order to allow correct functioning of a cell and its eventual daughter cells. This is illustrated by the numerous factors that have a well-defined function at the DNA replication fork, but also play crucial roles in different DNA repair pathways such as base excision repair, nucleotide excision repair, double-strand break repair, and mismatch repair. Moreover, several of the replisome proteins have also been shown to be essential in sensing and transducing DNA damages through the checkpoint cascade pathways, including the recently characterised alternative clamps and clamp-loaders. In this review we present DNA replication factors that are involved in different DNA transaction and checkpoint regulation pathways, with emphasis on the link between DNA replication and maintenance of genomic stability. 相似文献

The checkpoint response to replication stress 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Genome instability is a hallmark of cancer cells, and defective DNA replication, repair and recombination have been linked to its etiology. Increasing evidence suggests that proteins influencing S-phase processes such as replication fork movement and stability, repair events and replication completion, have significant roles in maintaining genome stability. DNA damage and replication stress activate a signal transduction cascade, often referred to as the checkpoint response. A central goal of the replication checkpoint is to maintain the integrity of the replication forks while facilitating replication completion and DNA repair and coordinating these events with cell cycle transitions. Progression through the cell cycle in spite of defective or incomplete DNA synthesis or unrepaired DNA lesions may result in broken chromosomes, genome aberrations, and an accumulation of mutations. In this review we discuss the multiple roles of the replication checkpoint during replication and in response to replication stress, as well as the enzymatic activities that cooperate with the checkpoint pathway to promote fork resumption and repair of DNA lesions thereby contributing to genome integrity. 相似文献

We measured parvovirus replication and sensitivity to X-ray damage in nine CHO cell lines representing a variety of DNA repair deficiencies. We found that parvovirus replication efficiency increases with radiosensitivity. Parvovirus replication is disrupted at an early stage of infection in DNA repair-proficient cells, before conversion of the single-stranded viral DNA genome into the double-stranded replicative form. Thus, status of the DNA repair machinery inversely correlates with parvovirus replication and is proportional to the host's ability to repair X-ray-induced damage. 相似文献

Cells are continually exposed to genomic insults resulting from exogenous and endogenous damage as well as by challenges posed by DNA replication. In order to maintain genome integrity, the cells must monitor and coordinate different aspects of chromosome metabolism with cell cycle events that are performed in a predetermined order. Checkpoints are cellular surveillance and signaling pathways that coordinate these physiological responses, and growing evidence suggests that failure of these controls can lead to profound genome instability and genetic disorders. In this review, we focus on the different types of signals and mechanisms that contribute to the budding yeast checkpoint activation, the role of the activated replication checkpoint in stabilizing replication forks and in assisting different types of DNA repair and fork restart mechanisms, as well as on the ability of cells to recover from checkpoint arrest after repairing the lesions or adapt when faced with unrepairable DNA damage. 相似文献

Mitochondria is a unique cellular organelle involved in multiple cellular processes and is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. This semi-autonomous organelle contains its circular genome – mtDNA (mitochondrial DNA), that undergoes continuous cycles of replication and repair to maintain the mitochondrial genome integrity. The majority of the mitochondrial genes, including mitochondrial replisome and repair genes, are nuclear-encoded. Although the repair machinery of mitochondria is quite efficient, the mitochondrial genome is highly susceptible to oxidative damage and other types of exogenous and endogenous agent-induced DNA damage, due to the absence of protective histones and their proximity to the main ROS production sites. Mutations in replication and repair genes of mitochondria can result in mtDNA depletion and deletions subsequently leading to mitochondrial genome instability. The combined action of mutations and deletions can result in compromised mitochondrial genome maintenance and lead to various mitochondrial disorders. Here, we review the mechanism of mitochondrial DNA replication and repair process, key proteins involved, and their altered function in mitochondrial disorders. The focus of this review will be on the key genes of mitochondrial DNA replication and repair machinery and the clinical phenotypes associated with mutations in these genes. 相似文献

Components of the DNA replication machinery localize into discrete subnuclear foci after DNA damage, where they play requisite functions in repair processes. Here, we find that the replication factors proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and RPAp34 dynamically exchange at these repair foci with discrete kinetics, and this behavior is distinct from kinetics during DNA replication. Posttranslational modification is hypothesized to target specific proteins for repair, and we find that accumulation and stability of PCNA at sites of damage requires monoubiquitination. Contrary to the popular notion that phosphorylation on the NH2 terminus of RPAp34 directs the protein for repair, we demonstrate that phosphorylation by DNA-dependent protein kinase enhances RPAp34 turnover at repair foci. Together, these findings support a dynamic exchange model in which multiple repair factors regulated by specific modifications have access to and rapidly turn over at sites of DNA damage. 相似文献

DNA metabolic events such as replication, repair and recombination require the concerted action of several enzymes and cofactors. Nature has provided a set of proteins that support DNA polymerases in performing processive, accurate and rapid DNA synthesis. Two of them, the proliferating cell nuclear antigen and its adapter protein replication factor C, cooperate to form a moving platform that was initially thought of only as an anchor point for DNA polymerases δ and ε. It now appears that proliferating cell nuclear antigen is also a communication point between a variety of important cellular processes including cell cycle control, DNA replication, nucleotide excision repair, post-replication mismatch repair, base excision repair and at least one apoptotic pathway. The dynamic movement of proliferating cell nuclear antigen on and off the DNA renders this protein an ideal communicator for a variety of proteins that are essential for DNA metabolic events in eukaryotic cells. 相似文献
