DNA replitase has been described as a complex of enzymes/proteins that are associated with both DNA precursor biosynthesis and DNA replication in mammalian cells [Reddy, G. P. V., and Pardee, A. B. (1980) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 77, 3312-3316]. We demonstrate for the first time a 3'----5' exodeoxyribonuclease activity is associated with the replitase complex. As much as 60% of this exonuclease activity was similar to that associated with DNA polymerase delta based upon its sensitivity to inhibition by GMP and by butyl-phenyl-deoxyguanosine triphosphate (BuPdGTP). Association of 3'----5' exonuclease activity with the DNA polymerase in the replitase complex was also demonstrated by analyzing dTTP turnover to dTMP in an in vitro DNA polymerase assay system. The DNA polymerase activity in replitase complex exhibited a sensitivity to BuPdGTP which both was similar to that of DNA replication in permeable cells and was intermediate between the BuPdGTP inhibition of purified DNA polymerases alpha and delta. These studies suggest that the replitase complex contains 3'----5' exonuclease activity associated with the DNA polymerase activity responsible for nuclear DNA replication in mammalian cells. Further studies are required to determine if these activities are at least partially attributed to DNA polymerase delta. 相似文献

Eukaryotic DNA metabolism : Are deoxyribonucleotides channeled to replication sites? 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
DNA precursor biosynthesis is closely coordinated with DNA replication itself. In prokaryotic systems, firm evidence supports the idea that this coordination is achieved through the action of multienzyme complexes that physically link the synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides with their utilization in DNA replication. Much evidence favors a similar channeling mechanism in eukaryotes. However, recent studies suggest strongly that in mammalian cells DNA precursors are synthesized in cytoplasm and are then transported into the nucleus. This article reviews the pertinent evidence, attempts to reconcile contradictory findings, and highlights areas that need further investigation. 相似文献

In eukaryotic cells, the essential function of DNA replication is carried out by a network of enzymes and proteins, which work together to rapidly and accurately duplicate the genetic information of the cell. Many of the components of this DNA replication apparatus associate with other cellular factors as components of multiprotein complexes, which act cooperatively in networks to regulate cell cycle progression and checkpoint control, but are distinct from the pre-replication complexes that associate with the origins and regulate their firing. In this review, we summarize current knowledge about the composition and dynamics of these large multiprotein complexes in mammalian cells and their relationships to the replication factories. 相似文献

Coordinate inhibition of DNA synthesis and thymidylate synthase activity following DNA damage and repair 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Two agents, 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) and beta lapachone, that inhibit repair of mammalian cell DNA damaged by methyl methane sulfonate (MMS), also coordinately blocked both DNA replication (incorporation of 3H-thymidine) and thymidylate synthase (TS) activity. Aphidicolin also inhibited both 3H-TDR incorporation and TS in damaged cells, the former more strongly than the latter, in a manner not coordinated with lethality. It is proposed that the DNA lesions created by MMS and modified by repair inhibit semiconservative DNA synthesis by allosterically interacting with the DNA replication replitase complex, so as to block its overall function and also the activity of TS, one of its enzymes. 相似文献

The de novo thymidylate biosynthetic pathway in mammalian cells translocates to the nucleus for DNA replication and repair and consists of the enzymes serine hydroxymethyltransferase 1 and 2α (SHMT1 and SHMT2α), thymidylate synthase, and dihydrofolate reductase. In this study, we demonstrate that this pathway forms a multienzyme complex that is associated with the nuclear lamina. SHMT1 or SHMT2α is required for co-localization of dihydrofolate reductase, SHMT, and thymidylate synthase to the nuclear lamina, indicating that SHMT serves as scaffold protein that is essential for complex formation. The metabolic complex is enriched at sites of DNA replication initiation and associated with proliferating cell nuclear antigen and other components of the DNA replication machinery. These data provide a mechanism for previous studies demonstrating that SHMT expression is rate-limiting for de novo thymidylate synthesis and indicate that de novo thymidylate biosynthesis occurs at replication forks. 相似文献

Increasing evidence has supported the concept that many of the enzymes and factors involved in the replication of mammalian DNA function together as a multiprotein complex. We have previously reported on the partial purification of a multiprotein form of DNA polymerase from human HeLa cells shown to be fully competent to support origin-specific large T-antigen-dependent simian virus 40 (SV40) DNA replication in vitro. In an attempt to more definitively identify the complex or complexes responsible for DNA replication in vitro, partially purified human HeLa cell protein preparations competent to replicate DNA in vitro were subjected to native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and electrophoretically transferred to nitrocellulose. The Native Western blots were probed with a panel of antibodies directed against proteins believed to be required for DNA replication in vitro. Apparent complexes of 620 kDa and 500 kDa were identified by monoclonal antibodies directed against DNA polymerase α and DNA polymerase δ, respectively. To detect epitopes possibly unexposed within the native multiprotein complexes, blots were also analyzed following denaturation in situ following treatment with detergent and reducing agent. The epitope or access to the epitope recognized by the monoclonal antibody against DNA polymerase α was destroyed by exposure of the blots to denaturing conditions. In contrast, an epitope present on a very large complex of approximately 1000 kDa was recognized by a monoclonal antibody against proliferating cell nuclear antigen only following treatment of the native immunoblots with denaturing agents. Identification of these complexes will allow their further purification, characterization, and elucidation of their role in the replication of DNA. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Gel filtration of a complex of DNA polymerase and DNA precursor-synthesizing enzymes from a human lymphoblastoid cell line 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
A multienzyme complex containing at least DNA polymerase (EC 2.7.7.7), thymidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.21), dTMP kinase (EC 2.7.4.9) nucleoside diphosphokinase (EC 2.7.4.6) and thymidylate synthetase was separated from the corresponding free enzymes of DNA precursor synthesis by gel filtration of a gently lysed preparation of HPB-ALL cells (a human lymphoblastoid cell line). The isolated incorporated the distal DNA precursors [3H]thymidine or [3H]dTMP into an added DNA template at rates comparable to those observed using the immediate precursor [3H]dTTP. Measurement of the apparent overall concentrations of [3H]dTTP produced during incorporation of [3H]thymidine and of [3H]dTMP were so low as to suggest that these precursors were channelled into DNA by the operation of a kinetically linked complex of precursor-synthesizing enzymes and of DNA polymerase. The DNA polymerase inhibitor 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine triphosphate reduced incorporation of distal precursors into DNA. However [3H]dTTP did not accumulate in the reaction mixture. This suggested that the DNA polymerase regulated the flow of substrates through the complex. The results in this paper constitute direct evidence for the existence of multienzyme complexes of DNA synthesis in mammalian cells. 相似文献

Oncoprotein c-myc is expressed in proliferating but not quiescent mammalian cells, and its overexpression or inappropriate expression is associated with malignant transformation. However, in spite of an intense interest, the normal function of this protein has remained elusive. As a step towards the elucidation of the function of c-myc protein, we studied its distribution within several types of cells, including HL 60, K 562, COLO 320, and CHEF/18 cells. In all of the cells studied, c-myc protein was detected in high molecular weight protein fractions, in 350-600 Kd range, in gel-exclusion chromatography and sucrose gradient centrifugation. This distribution of c-myc protein coincided with the distribution of DNA polymerase alpha and several other enzymes necessary for DNA replication. The data suggest that c-myc product may be a component of the replitase complex of enzymes involved in nuclear DNA replication. 相似文献

Catalytic activity of thymidylate synthase, as measured , is tightly linked to S phase of the cell cycle in Chinese hamster embryo fibroblast cells. This activity, as measured , is found in all parts of the cell cycle. Thymidylate synthase activity in nuclear (karyoplast) extracts increased as the cells progressed from to S phase. This enzymatic activity in the nuclei of S phase cells is associated with the multienzyme complex (replitase) that also contained DNA polymerase and other enzymes of DNA replication and precursor synthesis. The degree of association of thymidylate synthase with replitase, which increased co-ordinately as the cells progressed from phase to S phase, coincided strongly with the level of activity of the enzyme. 相似文献

For DNA replication to occur, chromatin must be remodeled. Yet, we know very little about which proteins alter nucleosome occupancy at origins and replication forks and for what aspects of replication they are required. Here, we demonstrate that the BRG1 catalytic subunit of mammalian SWI/SNF-related complexes co-localizes with origin recognition complexes, GINS complexes, and proliferating cell nuclear antigen at sites of DNA replication on extended chromatin fibers. The specific pattern of BRG1 occupancy suggests it does not participate in origin selection but is involved in the firing of origins and the process of replication elongation. This latter function is confirmed by the fact that Brg1 mutant mouse embryos and RNAi knockdown cells exhibit a 50% reduction in replication fork progression rates, which is associated with decreased cell proliferation. This novel function of BRG1 is consistent with its requirement during embryogenesis and its role as a tumor suppressor to maintain genome stability and prevent cancer. 相似文献

Isolation and general properties of 3'-5' exonucleases I and II (EC 3.1.4.26), which are specific to single-stranded DNA, are described. Such enzymes, being components of replication complexes, could correct replication errors. Homogeneous exonucleases I and II consist of a single subunit with molecular mass of 50 and 40 kDa, respectively. These enzymes are located preferentially in the nuclear membrane and chromatin. They form complexes with nuclear DNA polymerases and some other proteins and are not observed practically in a free state. Molecular masses of the complexes amount from 70 to 1.500 kDa. The complexes dissociate as a result of solution hydrophobization and can be reconstituted after the decrease of hydrophobization. The heavy membrane complex form of 3'----5' exonuclease I manifests enzymatic activities of DNA polymerase alpha (EC 2.7.7.7), non-specific nucleoside triphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.2), nucleotidase (EC 3.1.3.31) and faint activity of endonuclease (EC 3.1.4.5). Complexes under study do not display activity of thymidine kinase (EC 2.7.1.21), marker protein of replitase, neither in G0 nor in S-period. 相似文献

Formation of DNA replication structures in herpes virus-infected cells requires a viral DNA binding protein 总被引:38,自引:0,他引:38
Eukaryotic DNA synthesis is thought to occur in multienzyme complexes present at numerous discrete sites throughout the nucleus. We demonstrate here that cellular DNA replication sites identified by bromodeoxyuridine labeling are relocated in cells infected with herpes simplex virus such that they correspond to viral prereplicative structures containing the HSV DNA replication protein, ICP8. Thus components of the cellular DNA replication apparatus are present at viral prereplicative sites. Mutant virus strains expressing defective ICP8 do not alter the pattern of host cell DNA replication sites, indicating that functional ICP8 is required for the redistribution of cellular DNA replication complexes. This demonstrates that a specific protein molecule can play a role in the organization of DNA replication proteins at discrete sites within the cell nucleus. 相似文献

Mutations in specific genes result in birth defects, cancer, inherited diseases or lethality. The frequency with which DNA damage is converted to mutations increases dramatically when the cellular genome is replicated. Although DNA damage poses special problems to the fidelity of DNA replication, efficient mechanisms exist in mammalian cells which function to replicate their genome despite the presence of many damaged sites. These mechanisms operate in either error-prone or error-free modes of DNA synthesis, and frequently involve DNA strand-pairing reactions. Genetic studies in yeast and other eukaryotes suggest that replication through DNA damage is highly regulated and catalysed by complex biochemical machineries composed of many specialised gene products. Knowledge of the molecular details by which such factors facilitate the replication of damaged DNA in mammalian cells should reveal basic rules about how DNA damage induces mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. 相似文献

The Replication Stress Response (RSR) is a signaling network that recognizes challenges to DNA replication and coordinates diverse DNA repair and cell-cycle checkpoint pathways. Gemcitabine is a nucleoside analogue that causes cytotoxicity by inducing DNA replication blocks. Using a synthetic lethal screen of a RNAi library of nuclear enzymes to identify genes that when silenced cause gemcitabine sensitization or resistance in human triple-negative breast cancer cells, we identified NIMA (never in mitosis gene A)-related kinase 9 (NEK9) as a key component of the RSR. NEK9 depletion in cells leads to replication stress hypersensitivity, spontaneous accumulation of DNA damage and RPA70 foci, and an impairment in recovery from replication arrest. NEK9 protein levels also increase in response to replication stress. NEK9 complexes with CHK1, and moreover, NEK9 depletion impairs CHK1 autophosphorylation and kinase activity in response to replication stress. Thus, NEK9 is a critical component of the RSR that promotes CHK1 activity, maintaining genome integrity following challenges to DNA replication. 相似文献

Confirmatory evidence for the existence of a multienzyme complex of DNA precursor pathways in mammalian cells was obtained. Using neutral sucrose gradient centrifugation of cell lysates we found that at least five enzymes involved in DNA precursor metabolism in uninfected. S-phase BHK-cell fibroblasts cosediment at a common rate, indicative of a multienzyme complex. The enzymes include DNA polymerase thymidine kinase, ribonucleotide reductase, dihydrofolate reductase, and NDP-kinase. This complex was partially, but not completely, disrupted when lysates from GO-phase cells were centrifuged. Using lysates from cells infected with herpes simplex virus (HSV) type I some of the virus-induced ribonucleotide reductase and a minor proportion of the HSV-thymidine kinase cosedimented rapidly. The virus-induced DNA polymerase sedimented independently near the middle of the gradient, in contrast to the behaviour of the host polymerase. The enzyme associations observed were disrupted by NaCl or by inclusion of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid during the cell lysis procedure, instead of the usual EGTA. These results indicate the importance of ionic forces in maintaining the enzyme complexes. The bulk of the DNA and the RNA present in the lysates did not sediment at the same rate as the complexes, showing that the enzymes were not simply adhering nonspecifically to these polyanions. Newly synthesised radiolabeled DNA (15 min pulse with [3H]thymidine) was not preferentially associated with the enzymes, but some functional DNA was evident in the enzyme complex fraction from the uninfected S-phase cells. DNA polymerase activity in this fraction did not require, nor was it stimulated by, exogenous "activated" DNA. Added DNA primer-template was required, however, for maximal activity of the polymerase in gradient fractions derived from GO-phase cells and from HSV-infected cells. No evidence for channeling of ribonucleotide precursors into DNA of permeabilized cells (uninfected or HSV-infected) was detected. Most rCDP was incorporated into RNA. In the uninfected, S-phase cells about 10 pmol/10(6) cells/90 min of rCDP residues was incorporated into DNA compared with 120 pmol/10(6) cells/90 min when radiolabeled dCTP was used. Nonradioactive dCTP present in equimolar concentration in the incubation with labeled rCDP did not, however, diminish the incorporation of label from the ribonucleotide. In permeabilized HSV-infected cells incorporation of radiolabel from rCDP into DNA was barely detectable. 相似文献

The human DNA glycosylase NEIL1 was recently demonstrated to initiate prereplicative base excision repair (BER) of oxidized bases in the replicating genome, thus preventing mutagenic replication. A significant fraction of NEIL1 in cells is present in large cellular complexes containing DNA replication and other repair proteins, as shown by gel filtration. However, how the interaction of NEIL1 affects its recruitment to the replication site for prereplicative repair was not investigated. Here, we show that NEIL1 binarily interacts with the proliferating cell nuclear antigen clamp loader replication factor C, DNA polymerase δ, and DNA ligase I in the absence of DNA via its non-conserved C-terminal domain (CTD); replication factor C interaction results in ∼8-fold stimulation of NEIL1 activity. Disruption of NEIL1 interactions within the BERosome complex, as observed for a NEIL1 deletion mutant (N311) lacking the CTD, not only inhibits complete BER in vitro but also prevents its chromatin association and reduced recruitment at replication foci in S phase cells. This suggests that the interaction of NEIL1 with replication and other BER proteins is required for efficient repair of the replicating genome. Consistently, the CTD polypeptide acts as a dominant negative inhibitor during in vitro repair, and its ectopic expression sensitizes human cells to reactive oxygen species. We conclude that multiple interactions among BER proteins lead to large complexes, which are critical for efficient BER in mammalian cells, and the CTD interaction could be targeted for enhancing drug/radiation sensitivity of tumor cells. 相似文献

Rapid incorporation of label from ribonucleoside disphosphates into DNA by a cell-free high molecular weight fraction from animal cell nuclei 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18
A readily sedimentable nuclear fraction from Chinese hamster embryo fibroblast (CHEF/18) cells catalyzes incorporation of 14C-rCDP into DNA. Data indicated that this incorporation is made possible by the conversion of rCDP into a small and functionally compartmentalized, rather than a large and freely diffusible, pool of dCTP. This catalytically active sedimentable fraction from S phase CHEF/18 cells or actively replicating calf thymus cells contains nascent and template DNA, and numerous enzymes required for DNA biosynthesis including ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase, thymidylate synthetase, dihydrofolate reductase, DNA methylase, topoisomerase and DNA polymerase. We have named this catalytically active macromolecule the replitase. The replitase fraction contained spherical particles with a diameter of approximately 24 to 30 nm and had an estimated molecular weight on the order of 5 X 10(6). 相似文献

A 21S enzyme complex from HeLa cells that functions in simian virus 40 DNA replication in vitro 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
A sedimentable complex of enzymes for DNA synthesis was partially purified from the combined low-salt nuclear extract-postmicrosomal supernatant solution of HeLa cell homogenates by poly(ethylene glycol) precipitation in the presence of 2 M KCl, discontinuous gradient centrifugation, Q-Sepharose chromatography, and velocity gradient centrifugation. In addition to the previously described 640-kDa multiprotein DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex [Vishwanatha et al. (1986) J. Biol. Chem. 261, 6619-6628], the enzyme complex also has associated topoisomerase I, DNA-dependent ATPase, RNase H, DNA ligase, a simian virus 40 origin recognition, dA/dT sequence binding protein [Malkas & Baril (1989) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 86, 70-74], and proliferating cell nuclear antigen. Essentially all of the T antigen dependent simian virus 40 in vitro replication activity in the combined nuclear extract-postmicrosomal supernatant solution resides with the sedimentable complex of enzymes for DNA synthesis. Sedimentation analysis on a 10-35% glycerol gradient in the presence of 0.5 M KCl indicates that the enzyme complex is 21S. The associated enzymes for DNA synthesis and in vitro simian virus 40 replication activity cofractionate throughout the purification of the 21S complex. The DNA polymerase and in vitro simian virus 40 replication activities are both inhibited by monoclonal antibody (SJK 132-20) to human DNA polymerase alpha and by 5-10 microM butylphenyl-dGTP, indicating that the association of DNA polymerase alpha with the 21S enzyme complex is essential for the initiation of SV40 DNA replication in vitro. 相似文献

Autographica californica multiple nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcMNPV) has been shown to encode many of the enzymes involved in the replication of its own DNA. Although the AcMNPV genome contains multiple sets of reiterated sequences that are thought to function as origins of DNA replication, no initiator protein has yet been identified in the set of viral replication enzymes. In this study, the ability of a heterologous origin initiator system to promote DNA replication in AcMNPV-infected cells was examined. A recombinant AcMNPV that expressed the simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen was surprisingly found to induce the efficient replication of a transfected plasmid containing an SV40 origin. This replication was subsequently found to involve three essential components: (i) T antigen, since replication of SV40 origin-containing plasmids was not induced by wild-type AcMNPV which did not express this protein; (ii) an intact SV40 core origin, since deletion of specific functional motifs within the origin resulted in a loss of replicative abilities; and (iii) one or more AcMNPV-encoded proteins, since viral superinfection was required for plasmid amplification. Characterization of the replicated DNA revealed that it existed as a high-molecular-weight concatemer and underwent significant levels of homologous recombination between inverted repeat sequences. These properties were consistent with an AcMNPV-directed mode of DNA synthesis rather than that of SV40 and suggested that T antigen-SV40 origin complexes may be capable of initiating DNA replication reactions that can be completed by AcMNPV-encoded enzymes. 相似文献
