The mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) complex is the presumptive replicative helicase in archaea and eukaryotes. In archaea, the MCM is a homo-multimer, in eukaryotes a heterohexamer composed of six related subunits, MCM 2-7. Biochemical studies using naked DNA templates have revealed that archaeal MCMs and a sub-complex of eukaryotic MCM 4, 6 and 7 have 3' to 5' helicase activity. Here, we investigate the influence of the major chromatin proteins, Alba and Sul7d, of Sulfolobus solfataricus (Sso) on the ability of the MCM complex to melt partial duplex DNA substrates. In addition, we test the effect of Sso SSB on MCM activity. We reveal that Alba represents a formidable barrier to MCM activity and further demonstrate that acetylation of Alba alleviates repression of MCM activity. 相似文献

Organisms growing at elevated temperatures face a particular challenge to maintain the integrity of their genetic material. All thermophilic and hyperthermophilic archaea encode one or more copies of the Alba (Sac10b) gene. Alba is an abundant, dimeric, highly basic protein that binds cooperatively and at high density to DNA. Sulfolobus solfataricus encodes a second copy of the Alba gene, and the Alba2 protein is expressed at approximately 5% of the level of Alba1. We demonstrate by NMR, ITC, and crystallography that Alba2 exists exclusively as a heterodimer with Alba1 at physiological concentrations and that heterodimerization exerts a clear effect upon the DNA packaging, as observed by EM, potentially by changing the interface between adjacent Alba dimers in DNA complexes. A functional role for Alba2 in modulation of higher order chromatin structure and DNA condensation is suggested. 相似文献

Nucleosomes are the basic elements of chromatin structure. Polyamines, such as spermine and spermidine, are small ubiquitous molecules absolutely required for cell growth. Photoaffinity polyamines bind to specific locations in nucleosomes and can change the helical twist of DNA in nucleosomes. Acetylation of polyamines reduces their affinity for DNA and nucleosomes, thus the helical twist of DNA in nucleosomes could be regulated by cells through acetylation. I suggest that histone and polyamine acetylation act synergistically to modulate chromatin structure. On naked DNA, the photoaffinity spermine bound preferentially to a specific ‘TATA’ sequence element, suggesting that polyamines may be involved in the unusual chromatin structure in this region. Further work is needed to test whether the specificities shown by photoaffinity polyamines are also shown by cellular polyamines; such experiments are now feasible. 相似文献

The association and dissociation of DNA damage response (DDR) factors with damaged chromatin occurs dynamically, which is crucial for the activation of DDR signaling in a spatiotemporal manner. We previously showed that the TIP60 histone acetyltransferase complex acetylates histone H2AX, to facilitate H2AX exchange at sites of DNA damage. However, it remained unclear how the acetylation of histone H2AX by TIP60 is related to the DDR signaling. We found that the acetylation but not the phosphorylation of H2AX is essential for the turnover of NBS1 on damaged chromatin. The loss of H2AX acetylation at Lys 5 by TIP60 in cells disturbed the accumulation of NBS1 at sites of DNA damage. Although the phosphorylation of H2AX is also reportedly required for the retention of NBS1 at damage sites, our data indicated that the acetylation-dependent NBS1 turnover by TIP60 on damaged chromatin restricts the dispersal of NBS1 foci from the sites of DNA damage. These findings indicate the importance of the acetylation-dependent dynamic binding of NBS1 to damaged chromatin, created by histone H2AX exchange, for the proper accumulation of NBS1 at DNA damage sites. 相似文献
