Herpes Simplex Virus type 1 (HSV-1) has evolved to disable the cellular DNA damage response kinase, ATR. We have previously shown that HSV-1-infected cells are unable to phosphorylate the ATR substrate Chk1, even under conditions in which replication forks are stalled. Here we report that the HSV-1 single stranded DNA binding protein (ICP8), and the helicase/primase complex (UL8/UL5/UL52) form a nuclear complex in transfected cells that is necessary and sufficient to disable ATR signaling. This complex localizes to sites of DNA damage and colocalizes with ATR/ATRIP and RPA, but under these conditions, the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 checkpoint clamp (9-1-1) do not. ATR is generally activated by substrates that contain ssDNA adjacent to dsDNA, and previous work from our laboratory has shown that ICP8 and helicase/primase also recognize this substrate. We suggest that these four viral proteins prevent ATR activation by binding to the DNA substrate and obstructing loading of the 9-1-1 checkpoint clamp. Exclusion of 9-1-1 prevents recruitment of TopBP1, the ATR kinase activator, and thus effectively disables ATR signaling. These data provide the first example of viral DNA replication proteins obscuring access to a DNA substrate that would normally trigger a DNA damage response and checkpoint signaling. This unusual mechanism used by HSV suggests that it may be possible to inhibit ATR signaling by preventing recruitment of the 9-1-1 clamp and TopBP1. DNA viruses that replicate in the nucleus have been shown to both activate and inactivate various components of the cellular DNA damage response (DDR). Previous reports from our laboratory and others have demonstrated that Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) utilizes some aspects of the DDR while inactivating others. Paradoxically, HSV utilizes the DDR kinase ATR to complete its life cycle while at the same time disabling the kinase from activating DDR signaling. In this report we provide detail describing the mechanism of ATR inactivation. ATR is normally activated in response to single strand DNA (ssDNA), which serves as a scaffold to recruit several proteins required for complete ATR activation. In this paper we provide evidence that the HSV encoded ssDNA binding protein and helicase/primase complex function to mask the DNA substrate that recruits the ATR kinase activator. This represents the first example of viral DNA replication proteins masking a DNA substrate that could be sensed by the cell as damaged DNA and activate checkpoint signaling. It also explains how ATR can be recruited to sites of viral DNA replication in the absence of checkpoint signaling.
