WRN蛋白丢失导致Werner综合征(WS),其特征是早衰以及基因组和端粒不稳定。WRN可防止端粒丢失,但端粒蛋白复合体必须调节WRN活性以防止端粒加工异常。端粒结合TRF2蛋白通过阻断Holliday结(HJ)分解裂解活性来抑制端粒t环缺失,但TRF2是否也调节t环上HJ的位移尚不清楚。在这项研究中,我们使用多重荧光团成像来跟踪HJ底物的单个链的命运。我们报告了新的发现,TRF2抑制双臂端粒重复的HJs的WRN解旋酶链位移,但具有端粒中心或缺乏端粒序列的HJs的解绕不受影响。这些数据,以及使用TRF2片段和TRF2 HJ结合试验的结果表明,TRF2 B-和Myb结构域都是抑制WRN HJ活性所必需的。我们提出了一种新的模型,即TRF2 b结构域与HJ核心同时结合,Myb结构域与端粒臂同时结合,促进和稳定HJ在堆叠臂构象中,不利于解绕。我们的生化研究为TRF2调节端粒中WRN活性的细胞发现提供了机制基础。
WRN protein loss causes Werner syndrome (WS), which is characterized by premature aging as well as genomic and telomeric instability. WRN prevents telomere loss, but the telomeric protein complex must regulate WRN activities to prevent aberrant telomere processing. Telomere-binding TRF2 protein inhibits telomere t-loop deletion by blocking Holliday junction (HJ) resolvase cleavage activity, but whether TRF2 also modulates HJ displacement at t-loops is unknown. In this study, we used multiplex fluorophore imaging to track the fate of individual strands of HJ substrates. We report the novel finding that TRF2 inhibits WRN helicase strand displacement of HJs with telomeric repeats in duplex arms, but unwinding of HJs with a telomeric center or lacking telomeric sequence is unaffected. These data, together with results using TRF2 fragments and TRF2 HJ binding assays, indicate that both the TRF2 B- and Myb domains are required to inhibit WRN HJ activity. We propose a novel model whereby simultaneous binding of the TRF2 B-domain to the HJ core and the Myb domain to telomeric arms promote and stabilize HJs in a stacked arm conformation that is unfavorable for unwinding. Our biochemical study provides a mechanistic basis for the cellular findings that TRF2 regulates WRN activity at telomeres.
