DNA replication complexes (replisomes) routinely encounter proteins and unusual nucleic acid structures that can impede their progress. Barriers can include transcription complexes and R-loops that form when RNA hybridizes with complementary DNA templates behind RNA polymerases. Cells encode several RNA polymerase and R-loop clearance mechanisms to limit replisome exposure to these potential obstructions. One such mechanism is hydrolysis of R-loops by ribonuclease HI (RNase HI). Here, we examine the cellular role of the interaction between Escherichia coli RNase HI and the single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB) in this process. Interaction with SSB localizes RNase HI foci to DNA replication sites. Mutation of rnhA to encode an RNase HI variant that cannot interact with SSB but that maintains enzymatic activity (rnhAK60E) eliminates RNase HI foci. The mutation also produces a media-dependent slow-growth phenotype and an activated DNA damage response in cells lacking Rep helicase, which is an enzyme that disrupts stalled transcription complexes. RNA polymerase variants that are thought to increase or decrease R-loop accumulation enhance or suppress, respectively, the growth phenotype of rnhAK60E rep::kan strains. These results identify a cellular role for the RNase HI/SSB interaction in helping to clear R-loops that block DNA replication. DNA replication complexes routinely encounter impediments such as transcription complexes and R-loops that form when RNA hybridizes with complementary DNA templates behind RNA polymerases. We show that interaction between RNase HI and single-stranded DNA-binding protein localizes RNase HI to help clear R-loops that block DNA replication.
