Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites are the most frequently found mutagenic lesions in DNA, and they arise mainly from spontaneous base loss or modified base removal by damage-specific DNA glycosylases. AP sites are cleaved by AP endonucleases, and the resultant gaps in the DNA are repaired by DNA polymerase/DNA ligase reactions. We identified the gene product that is responsible for the AP endonuclease activity in the hyperthermophilic euryarchaeon, Pyrococcus furiosus. Furthermore, we detected the physical interaction between P. furiosus AP endonuclease (PfuAPE) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA; PfuPCNA) by a pull-down assay and a surface plasmon resonance analysis. Interestingly, the associated 3′–5′ exonuclease activity, but not the AP endonuclease activity, of PfuAPE was stimulated by PfuPCNA. Immunoprecipitation experiments using the P. furiosus cell extracts supported the interaction between PfuAPE and PfuPCNA in the cells. This is the first report describing the physical and functional interactions between an archaeal AP endonuclease and PCNA. We also detected the ternary complex of PfuPCNA, PfuAPE and Pfu uracil-DNA glycosylase. This complex probably functions to enhance the repair of uracil-containing DNA in P. furiosus cells. 相似文献

The individual steps in single-nucleotide base excision repair (SN-BER) are coordinated to enable efficient repair without accumulation of cytotoxic DNA intermediates. The DNA transactions and various proteins involved in SN-BER of abasic sites are well known in mammalian systems. Yet, despite a wealth of information on SN-BER, the mechanism of step-by-step coordination is poorly understood. In this study we conducted experiments toward understanding step-by-step coordination during BER by comparing DNA binding specificities of two major human SN-BER enzymes, apurinic/aprymidinic endonuclease 1 (APE) and DNA polymerase beta (Pol beta). It is known that these enzymes do not form a stable complex in solution. For each enzyme, we found that DNA binding specificity appeared sufficient to explain the sequential processing of BER intermediates. In addition, however, we identified at higher enzyme concentrations a ternary complex of APE.Pol beta.DNA that formed specifically at BER intermediates containing a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate group. Formation of this ternary complex was associated with slightly stronger Pol beta gap-filling and much stronger 5'-deoxyribose phosphate lyase activities than was observed with the Pol beta.DNA binary complex. These results indicate that step-by-step coordination in SN-BER can rely on DNA binding specificity inherent in APE and Pol beta, although coordination also may be facilitated by APE.Pol beta.DNA ternary complex formation with appropriate enzyme expression levels or enzyme recruitment to sites of repair. 相似文献

In Schizosaccharomyces pombe the repair of apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites is mainly initiated by AP lyase activity of DNA glycosylase Nth1p. In contrast, the major AP endonuclease Apn2p functions by removing 3'-alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehyde ends induced by Nth1p, rather than by incising the AP sites. S. pombe possesses other minor AP endonuclease activities derived from Apn1p and Uve1p. In this study, we investigated the function of these two enzymes in base excision repair (BER) for methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) damage using the nth1 and apn2 mutants. Deletion of apn1 or uve1 from nth1Delta cells did not affect sensitivity to MMS. Exogenous expression of Apn1p failed to suppress the MMS sensitivity of nth1Delta cells. Although Apn1p and Uve1p incised the oligonucleotide containing an AP site analogue, these enzymes could not initiate repair of the AP sites in vivo. Despite this, expression of Apn1p partially restored the MMS sensitivity of apn2Delta cells, indicating that the enzyme functions as a 3'-phosphodiesterase to remove 3'-blocked ends. Localization of Apn1p in the nucleus and cytoplasm hints at an additional function of the enzyme other than nuclear DNA repair. Heterologous expression of Saccharomyces cerevisiae homologue of Apn1p completely restored the MMS resistance of the nth1Delta and apn2Delta cells. This result confirms a difference in the major pathway for processing the AP site between S. pombe and S. cerevisiae cells. 相似文献

Human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is one of the key participants in the DNA base excision repair system. APE1 hydrolyzes DNA adjacent to the 5′-end of an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site to produce a nick with a 3′-hydroxyl group and a 5′-deoxyribose phosphate moiety. APE1 exhibits 3′-phosphodiesterase, 3′-5′-exonuclease, and 3-phosphatase activities. APE1 was also identified as a redox factor (Ref-1). In this review, data on the role of APE1 in the DNA repair process and in other metabolic processes occurring in cells are analyzed as well as the interaction of this enzyme with DNA and other proteins participating in the repair system. 相似文献

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (AP endo) is believed to play a critical role in repair of oxidative damage of DNA and is proposed to initiate repair of most abasic sites in the base excision repair pathway. AP endo makes a single nick 5' to an abasic site in double-stranded DNA. In this study, we investigated whether AP endo locates an abasic site through a processive or a distributive mechanism. We used a linear multi-abasic site substrate (concatemer), synthesized by ligating together identical 25-nucleotide monomeric units (25-mers). We first determined that the 25-mer monomer from which the concatemers were prepared was nicked by AP endo in a fashion similar to that of the previously published 49-mer substrate with a different sequence. Steady state parameters K(m) and k(cat) and single-turnover parameters for substrate binding were comparable to previously published values. Using the multi-abasic site concatemer, we demonstrated that AP endo was capable of cleaving approximately seven to eight abasic sites, traveling at least 200 nucleotides, before dissociating from its substrate. Thus, AP endo, like uracil DNA glycosylase, behaves in a quasi processive fashion. Processivity could be separated from catalysis, since processivity was maximal at 25 mM NaCl, while the rate of cleavage was maximal at 125 mM salt. In short, nicking activity was maximized close to physiological salt molarities while processivity was midrange at physiological salt concentrations. The latter is likely to be subject to tight regulation by small changes in ionic strength. 相似文献

Human major apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE1) is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a central role in DNA repair
through the base excision repair (BER) pathway. Besides BER, APE1 is involved in an alternative nucleotide incision repair
(NIR) pathway that bypasses glycosylases. We have analyzed the conformational dynamics and the kinetic mechanism of APE1 action
in the NIR pathway. For this purpose we recorded changes in the intensity of fluorescence of 2-aminopurine located in two
different positions in a substrate containing dihydrouridine (DHU) during the interaction of the substrate with the enzyme.
The enzyme was found to change its conformation within the complex with substrate and also within the complex with the reaction
product, and the release of the enzyme from the complex with the product seemed to be the limiting stage of the enzymatic
process. The rate constants of the catalytic cleavage of DHU-containing substrates by APE1 were comparable with the appropriate
rate constants for substrates containing apurinic/apyrimidinic site or tetrahydrofuran residue, which suggests that NIR is
a biologically important process. 相似文献

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1 or Ref-1) is the major enzyme in mammals for processing abasic sites in DNA. These cytotoxic and mutagenic lesions arise via spontaneous rupture of the base-sugar bond or the removal of damaged bases by a DNA glycosylase. APE1 cleaves the DNA backbone 5′ to an abasic site, giving a 3′-OH primer for repair synthesis, and mediates other key repair activities. The DNA repair functions are essential for embryogenesis and cell viability. APE1-deficient cells are hypersensitive to DNA-damaging agents, and APE1 is considered an attractive target for inhibitors that could potentially enhance the efficacy of some anti-cancer agents. To enable an important new method for studying the structure, dynamics, catalytic mechanism, and inhibition of APE1, we assigned the chemical shifts (backbone and 13Cβ) of APE1 residues 39-318. We also report a protocol for refolding APE1, which was essential for achieving complete exchange of backbone amide sites for the perdeuterated protein. 相似文献

Abasic site recognition by two apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease families in DNA base excision repair: the 3' ends justify the means 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
DNA damage occurs unceasingly in all cells. Spontaneous DNA base loss, as well as the removal of damaged DNA bases by specific enzymes targeted to distinct base lesions, creates non-coding and lethal apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. AP sites are the central intermediate in DNA base excision repair (BER) and must be processed by 5' AP endonucleases. These pivotal enzymes detect, recognize, and cleave the DNA phosphodiester backbone 5' of, AP sites to create a free 3'-OH end for DNA polymerase repair synthesis. In humans, AP sites are processed by APE1, whereas in yeast the primary AP endonuclease is termed APN1, and these enzymes are the major constitutively expressed AP endonucleases in these organisms and are homologous to the Escherichia coli enzymes Exonuclease III (Exo III) and Endonuclease IV (Endo IV), respectively. These enzymes represent both of the conserved 5' AP endonuclease enzyme families that exist in biology. Crystal structures of APE1 and Endo IV, both bound to AP site-containing DNA reveal how abasic sites are recognized and the DNA phosphodiester backbone cleaved by these two structurally unrelated enzymes with distinct chemical mechanisms. Both enzymes orient the AP-DNA via positively charged complementary surfaces and insert loops into the DNA base stack, bending and kinking the DNA to promote flipping of the AP site into a sequestered enzyme pocket that excludes undamaged nucleotides. Each enzyme-DNA complex exhibits distinctly different DNA conformations, which may impact upon the biological functions of each enzyme within BER signal-transduction pathways. 相似文献

DNA repair is essential for cell viability and proliferation. In addition to reactive oxygen produced as a byproduct of their own metabolism, intracellular parasites also have to manage oxidative stress generated as a defense mechanism by the host. The spontaneous loss of DNA bases due to hydrolysis and oxidative DNA damage in intracellular parasites is great, but little is known about the type of DNA repair machineries that exist in these early-branching eukaryotes. However, it is clear, processes similar to DNA base excision repair (BER) must exist to rectify spontaneous and host-mediated damage in Toxoplasma gondii. Here we report that T. gondii, an opportunistic protozoan pathogen, possesses two apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonucleases that function in DNA BER. We characterize the enzymatic activities of Toxoplasma exonuclease III (ExoIII, or Ape1) and endonuclease IV (EndoIV, or Apn1), designated TgAPE and TgAPN, respectively. Over-expression of TgAPN in Toxoplasma conferred protection from DNA damage, and viable knockouts of TgAPN were not obtainable. We generated an inducible TgAPN knockdown mutant using a ligand-controlled destabilization domain to establish that TgAPN is critical for Toxoplasma to recover from DNA damage. The importance of TgAPN and the fact that humans lack any observable APN family activity highlights TgAPN as a promising candidate for drug development to treat toxoplasmosis. 相似文献

Adenine-DNA glycosylase MutY of Escherichia coli catalyzes the cleavage of adenine when mismatched with 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (GO), an oxidatively damaged base. The biological outcome is the prevention of C/G→A/T transversions. The molecular mechanism of base excision repair (BER) of A/GO in mammals is not well understood. In this study we report stimulation of mammalian adenine-DNA glycosylase activity by apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease using murine homolog of MutY (Myh) and human AP endonuclease (Ape1), which shares 94% amino acid identity with its murine homolog Apex. After removal of adenine by the Myh glycosylase activity, intact AP DNA remains due to lack of an efficient Myh AP lyase activity. The study of wild-type Ape1 and its catalytic mutant H309N demonstrates that Ape1 catalytic activity is required for formation of cleaved AP DNA. It also appears that Ape1 stimulates Myh glycosylase activity by increasing formation of the Myh–DNA complex. This stimulation is independent of the catalytic activity of Ape1. Consequently, Ape1 preserves the Myh preference for A/GO over A/G and improves overall glycosylase efficiency. Our study suggests that protein–protein interactions may occur in vivo to achieve efficient BER of A/GO. 相似文献

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (AP endo) is a key enzyme in the repair of oxidatively damaged DNA. Using single-turnover conditions, we recently described substrate binding parameters for wild type human AP endo. In this study, we utilized four enzyme mutants, D283A, D308A, D283A/D308A, and H309N, and assayed them under steady state and single-turnover conditions. The turnover number of the single aspartate mutants was decreased 10-30-fold in comparison to that of the wild type. The decrease in the turnover number was accompanied by a 17- and 50-fold decrease in the forward rate constant (kon) for substrate binding by D308A and D283A, respectively. The dissociation rate constant for substrate (koff) was unchanged for the D308A mutant but was 10 times faster for the D283A mutant than for the wild type. The apparent Km values for both of the single aspartate mutants were about equal to their respective KD values. To account for the kinetic behavior of the D308A mutant, it was necessary to insert a conformational change into the kinetic scheme. In contrast to the single aspartate mutants, the turnover number for the double mutant was 500-fold lower than that of the wild type, its apparent Km was 2.5-fold higher, and binding to substrate was weak. Mutation of His309 caused the greatest decrease in activity, resulting in a turnover number that was more than 30000-fold lower than that of the wild type and an apparent Km that was 13-fold higher, supporting the notion that His309 is intimately involved in catalysis. Molecular dynamics simulation techniques suggested that conversion of either aspartate to alanine resulted in major shifts in the spatial localization of key amino acids. Despite the fact that the two aspartates flank His309, the movement they engendered was distinct, consistent with the differences in catalytic behavior. We suggest that the conformation of the active site is largely maintained by the two aspartates, which enable efficient binding and cleavage of abasic site-containing DNA. 相似文献

Human apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a multifunctional enzyme involved in base excision repair (BER). APE1 cleaves DNA 5′ of an AP site to produce a single-strand break with 5′-OH and 3′-deoxyribose phosphate. In addition to its AP-endonucleolytic function, APE1 possesses 3′-phosphodiesterase, 3′–5′ exonuclease, and 3′-phosphatase activities. Independently of its function as a repair protein, APE1 was identified as a redox factor (Ref-1). The review summarizes the published and original data on the role of the additional functions of APE1 in DNA repair and apoptosis and regulation of the BER system via APE1 interaction with DNA and other repair proteins. 相似文献

Growing evidence suggests that the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 complex (the 9-1-1 complex), besides its functions in DNA damage sensing and signaling pathways, plays also a direct role in various DNA repair processes. Recent studies have demonstrated that the 9-1-1 complex physically and functionally interacts with several components of the base excision repair (BER) machinery namely DNA polymerase β (Pol β), flap endonuclease 1 (Fen 1), DNA ligase I (Lig I) and the MutY homologue of Schizosaccharomyces pombe. In this work, we found for the first time that the 9-1-1 complex interacts in vitro and in vivo with the apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE 1), an early component of BER, and can stimulate its AP-endonuclease activity. Moreover, we show that the 9-1-1 complex possesses a stimulatory effect on long patch base excision repair (LP-BER) reconstituted in vitro. The enhancement of LP-BER activity is due to the specific stimulation of the two early components of the repair machinery, namely APE 1 and Pol β, suggesting a hierarchy of interactions between the 9-1-1 complex and the BER proteins acting in the repairosome. Overall, our results indicate that the 9-1-1 complex is directly involved in LP-BER, thus providing a possible link between DNA damage checkpoints and BER. 相似文献

We have recently identified apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) as an endoribonuclease that cleaves c-myc mRNA in vitro and regulates c-myc mRNA levels and half-life in cells. This study was undertaken to further unravel the RNA-cleaving properties of APE1. Here, we show that APE1 cleaves RNA in the absence of divalent metal ions and, at 2 mM, Zn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+, or Co2+ inhibited the endoribonuclease activity of APE1. APE1 is able to cleave CD44 mRNA, microRNAs (miR-21, miR-10b), and three RNA components of SARS-corona virus (orf1b, orf3, spike) suggesting that, when challenged, it can cleave any RNAs in vitro. APE1 does not cleave strong doublestranded regions of RNA and it has a strong preference for 3’ of pyrimidine, especially towards UA, CA, and UG sites at single-stranded or weakly paired regions. It also cleaves RNA weakly at UC, CU, AC, and AU sites in single-stranded or weakly paired regions. Finally, we found that APE1 can reduce the ability of the Dicer enzyme to process premiRNAs in vitro. Overall, this study has revealed some previously unknown biochemical properties of APE1 which has implications for its role in vivo. 相似文献

p53 plays a major role in apoptosis through activation of pro-apoptotic gene Bax. It also regulates apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (APE) expression in the base excision repair pathway against oxidative DNA damages. This study investigated whether p53-dependent apoptosis is correlated with APE using an experimental rat model of hydronephrosis. Hydronephrosis was induced by partial ligation of the right ureter. Animals were sacrificed on scheduled time after unilateral ureteral obstruction and the expression of 8-OHdG, γ-H2AX, apoptotic proteins and APE was determined. The accumulated p53 activated Bax and caspase-3 7 days after hydronephrosis induction and the resulting high levels of p53-dependent apoptotic proteins and γ-H2AX tended to decrease APE. The intensities of 8-OHdG and caspase-3 immunolocalization significantly increased in obstructed kidneys than in sham-operated kidneys, although APE immunoreactivity increased after hydronephrosis induction. These results suggest that oxidative DNA damages in obstructed kidneys may trigger p53-dependent apoptosis through repression of APE. 相似文献

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester linkage between the DNA 3' phosphate and a tyrosine residue as well as a variety of other DNA 3' damaged termini. Recently we have shown that Tdp1 can liberate the 3' DNA phosphate termini from apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. Here, we found that Tdp1 is more active in the cleavage of the AP sites inside bubble-DNA structure in comparison to ssDNA containing AP site. Furthermore, Tdp1 hydrolyzes AP sites opposite to bulky fluorescein adduct faster than AP sites located in dsDNA. Whilst the Tdp1 H493R (SCAN1) and H263A mutants retain the ability to bind an AP site-containing DNA, both mutants do not reveal endonuclease activity, further suggesting the specificity of the AP cleavage activity. We suggest that this Tdp1 activity can contribute to the repair of AP sites particularly in DNA structures containing ssDNA region or AP sites in the context of clustered DNA lesions. 相似文献

Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease (APE) is a multifunctional protein possessing both DNA repair and redox regulatory activities. In base excision repair (BER), APE is responsible for processing spontaneous, chemical, or monofunctional DNA glycosylase-initiated AP sites via its 5'-endonuclease activity and 3'-"end-trimming" activity when processing residues produced as a consequence of bifunctional DNA glycosylases. In this study, we have fully characterized a mammalian model of APE haploinsufficiency by using a mouse containing a heterozygous gene-targeted deletion of the APE gene (Apex(+/-)). Our data indicate that Apex(+/-) mice are indeed APE-haploinsufficient, as exhibited by a 40-50% reduction (p < 0.05) in APE mRNA, protein, and 5'-endonuclease activity in all tissues studied. Based on gene dosage, we expected to see a concomitant reduction in BER activity; however, by using an in vitro G:U mismatch BER assay, we observed tissue-specific alterations in monofunctional glycosylase-initiated BER activity, e.g. liver (35% decrease, p < 0.05), testes (55% increase, p < 0.05), and brain (no significant difference). The observed changes in BER activity correlated tightly with changes in DNA polymerase beta and AP site DNA binding levels. We propose a mechanism of BER that may be influenced by the redox regulatory activity of APE, and we suggest that reduced APE may render a cell/tissue more susceptible to dysregulation of the polymerase beta-dependent BER response to cellular stress. 相似文献

The mechanism of action of the homogeneous preparation of human placental apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease, described in the previous paper (Shaper, N. L., Grafstrom, R. H., and Grossman, L. (1982) J. Biol. Chem. 257, 13455-13458), has been investigated in detail. This enzyme cleaves apyrimidinic DNA both 5' and 3' to the site of damage in a ratio of 60:40, respectively. Even though this enzyme can cleave on both sides of an internal AP site, it does not release deoxyribose 5-phosphate from terminal AP sites. However, a compound, tentatively identified as alpha, beta unsaturated deoxyribose 5-phosphate, is nonenzymatically released only from 5'-terminal AP sites, presumably by a beta-elimination mechanism. 相似文献
