ABSTRACT DNA replication depends critically upon chromatin structure. Little is known about how the replication complex overcomes the nucleosome packages in chromatin during DNA replication. To address this question, we investigate factors that interact in vivo with the principal initiation DNA polymerase, DNA polymerase α (Polα). The catalytic subunit of budding yeast Polα (Pol1p) has been shown to associate in vitro with the Spt16p-Pob3p complex, a component of the nucleosome reorganization system required for both replication and transcription, and with a sister chromatid cohesion factor, Ctf4p. Here, we show that an N-terminal region of Polα (Pol1p) that is evolutionarily conserved among different species interacts with Spt16p-Pob3p and Ctf4p in vivo. A mutation in a glycine residue in this N-terminal region of POL1 compromises the ability of Pol1p to associate with Spt16p and alters the temporal ordered association of Ctf4p with Pol1p. The compromised association between the chromatin-reorganizing factor Spt16p and the initiating DNA polymerase Pol1p delays the Pol1p assembling onto and disassembling from the late-replicating origins and causes a slowdown of S-phase progression. Our results thus suggest that a coordinated temporal and spatial interplay between the conserved N-terminal region of the Polα protein and factors that are involved in reorganization of nucleosomes and promoting establishment of sister chromatin cohesion is required to facilitate S-phase progression.

ABSTRACT Although p48 is the most conserved subunit of mammalian DNA polymerase α-primase (pol-prim), the polypeptide is the major species-specific factor for mouse polyomavirus (PyV) DNA replication. Human and murine p48 contain two regions (A and B) that show significantly lower homology than the rest of the protein. Chimerical human-murine p48 was prepared and coexpressed with three wild-type subunits of pol-prim, and four subunit protein complexes were purified. All enzyme complexes synthesized DNA on single-stranded (ss) DNA and replicated simian virus 40 DNA. Although the recombinant protein complexes physically interacted with PyV T antigen (Tag), we determined that the murine region A mediates the species specificity of PyV DNA replication in vitro. More precisely, the nonconserved phenylalanine 262 of mouse p48 is crucial for this activity, and pol-prim with mutant p48, h-S262F, supports PyV DNA replication in vitro. DNA synthesis on RPA-bound ssDNA revealed that amino acid (aa) 262, aa 266, and aa 273 to 288 are involved in the functional cooperation of RPA, pol-prim, and PyV Tag.

Calf thymus DNA polymerase α, like the replication-specific DNA polymerase III holoenzyme of Escherichia coli , can be isolated as a distinct complex. A specific multiprotein form of the polymerase α, a form designated replication-com petent (RC) holoenzyme, consists of a complex of a polymerase-primase core and at least six other polypeptides. The RC holoenzyme can efficiently replicate several naturally occurring templates, including the genomic DNA of the porcine circovirus (PCV). The DNA of this virion consists of a single-stranded circle with a defined replication origin, and its replication requires the cellular DNA replication machinery. It might therefore provide an invaluable opportunity to investigate chromosomal replication mechanisms, analogous to the way that studies on E. coli bacteriophage DNA replication elucidated host DNA replication mechanisms. Calf RC holoenzyme α selectively initiates pcv DNA replication in vitro at a site that possibly represents a consensus sequence of cellular DNA replication origins. The cell-free PCV replication system will be exploited for the in vitro dissection and reconstitution of the RC holoenzyme and the functional analysis of its component polypeptides.

ABSTRACT DNA polymerase α-primase (pol-prim) is a heterotetramer with DNA polymerase and primase activities. The polymerase (p180) and primase (p48 and p58) subunits synthesize primers and extend them, but the function of the remaining subunit (p68) is poorly understood. Genetic studies in yeast suggested an essential role for the p68 ortholog in early S phase prior to the hydroxyurea-sensitive step, possibly a regulatory role in initiation of DNA replication, but found no evidence for an essential function of p68 later in S phase. To investigate whether the human p68 subunit has an essential role in DNA replication, we examined the ability of a purified trimeric human pol-prim lacking p68 to initiate simian virus 40 DNA replication in vitro and to synthesize and elongate primers on single-stranded DNA in the presence of T antigen and replication protein A (RPA). Both activities of trimeric pol-prim were defective, but activity was recovered upon addition of separately purified p68. Phosphorylation of p68 by cyclin A-dependent protein kinase also inhibited both activities of pol-prim. The data strongly suggest that the p68 subunit is required for priming activity of pol-prim in the presence of RPA and T antigen, both during initiation at the origin and during lagging strand replication.

The replication of DNA containing either the polyoma or SV40 origin has been done in vitro . Each system requires its cognate large-tumour antigen (T antigen) and extracts from cells that support its replication in vivo . The host-cell source of DNA polymerase α - primase complex plays an important role in discriminating between polyoma T antigen and SV40 T antigen-dependent replication of their homologous DNA. The SV40 origin- and T antigen-dependent DNA replication has been reconstituted in vitro with purified protein components isolated from HeLa cells. In addition to SV40 T antigen, HeLa DNA polymerase α - primase complex, eukaryotic topoisomerase I and a single-strand DNA binding protein from HeLa cells are required. The latter activity, isolated solely by its ability to support SV40 DNA replication, sediments and copurifies with two major protein species of 72 and 76 kDa. Although crude fractions yielded closed circular monomer products, the purified system does not. However, the addition of crude fractions to the purified system resulted in the formation of replicative form I (RFI) products. We have separated the replication reaction with purified components into multiple steps. In an early step, T antigen in conjunction with a eukaryotic topoisomerase (or DNA gyrase) and a DNA binding protein, catalyses the conversion of a circular duplex DNA molecule containing the SV40 origin to a highly underwound covalently closed circle. This reaction requires the action of a helicase activity and the SV40 T antigen preparation contains such an activity. The T antigen associated ability to unwind DNA copurified with other activities intrinsic to T antigen (ability to support replication of SV40 DNA containing the SV40 origin, poly dT-stimulated ATPase activity and DNA helicase).

A number of proteins have been isolated from human cells on the basis of their ability to support DNA replication in vitro of the simian virus 40 (SV40) origin of DNA replication. One such protein, replication factor C (RFC), functions with the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), replication protein A (RPA), and DNA polymerase delta to synthesize the leading strand at a replication fork. To determine whether these proteins perform similar roles during replication of DNA from origins in cellular chromosomes, we have begun to characterize functionally homologous proteins from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. RFC from S. cerevisiae was purified by its ability to stimulate yeast DNA polymerase delta on a primed single-stranded DNA template in the presence of yeast PCNA and RPA. Like its human-cell counterpart, RFC from S. cerevisiae (scRFC) has an associated DNA-activated ATPase activity as well as a primer-template, structure-specific DNA binding activity. By analogy with the phage T4 and SV40 DNA replication in vitro systems, the yeast RFC, PCNA, RPA, and DNA polymerase delta activities function together as a leading-strand DNA replication complex. Now that RFC from S. cerevisiae has been purified, all seven cellular factors previously shown to be required for SV40 DNA replication in vitro have been identified in S. cerevisiae.
