项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Faithful replication of DNA and response to encounters with aberrant DNA are essential to cell propagation and survival. Our long-term goal is to understand the action of multi-protein DNA replication and damage response machinery at eukaryotic replication forks. Our strategy is to elucidate the structural mechanisms using an integrative structural biology approach, coupled to biochemical/biophysical characterization and collaborations to define functional implications. This proposal focuses on critical unsolved questions about the initiation of daughter strand synthesis in replication, and the stalling and remodeling of replication forks upon encountering aberrant DNA. In DNA replication, the processive polymerases δ and ε require a short primer strand on the template to function, which is generated by DNA polymerase -primase (pol-prim). Although 3D structures have been determined for all components of pol-prim and even the intact heterotetramer, these have provided only limited mechanistic insights because structures of the full-length protein with relevant substrates and essential co-factors are lacking. To address this critical gap in knowledge, we propose to determine the relevant structures using Cryo-EM. We also propose to continue working on characterizing the structure, biochemical properties and functional roles of 4Fe-4S clusters in pol-prim. We will test and refine our hypotheses about the role of: (i) the primase 4Fe-4S cluster redox in modulating DNA binding activity; (ii) the role of the cluster in pol α in driving the transition from RNA synthesis by primase to DNA synthesis by pol α. Together, these studies will solve the fundamental questions about how pol-prim counts the length of the primer at each step and how the substrate hand-offs occur from primase to pol α and then from pol α to pols δ or ε. Our second project addresses two critical gaps in knowledge about replication fork encounters with aberrant DNA. RPA and Rad51 are two highly abundant ssDNA binding proteins that have critical roles in the stalling, reversal and stabilization of stalled forks. RPA-coated ssDNA is the key initiating signal for multiple damage response pathways and plays several additional roles, including recruiting and directing the fork reversal activity of the ATP motor protein SMARCAL1. We propose to elucidate the mechanisms that drive this important aspect of fork remodeling by determining the structure of the RPA and SMARCAL1 on a model fork substrate complex using Cyro-EM. Rad51 plays an essential role in the stabilization of stalled replication forks. Collaborative studies with David Cortez led to the discovery and characterization of RADX, a new DNA damage response protein involved in regulating the activity of Rad51 at stalled forks. We recently discovered RADX also interacts physically with RPA, suggesting there is a RPA-RADX-Rad51 network operating at stalled forks. We propose combined structural, biophysical and functional analyses of RADX and its interactions with DNA, Rad51 and RPA to clarify the roles of RADX at stalled replication forks. Together, our two projects will greatly enhance understanding of how DNA is processed at eukaryotic replication forks and genomes are maintained and propagated.
