We have been studying the functions of PCNA (proliferating-cell nuclear antigen) for the assembly and reassembly of the replisome during replication fork progression. We have identified the functional interactions between PCNA and several proteins involved in DNA replication and repair from Pyrococcus furiosus. We recently reported that the activity of UDG (uracil–DNA glycosylase) in P. furiosus (PfuUDG) is stimulated by PCNA (PfuPCNA) in vitro, and identified an atypical PCNA-binding site, AKTLF, in the PfuUDG protein. To understand further the function of the complex in the BER (base excision repair) process, we investigated the AP (apurinic/apyrimidinic) endonuclease, which can process the BER pathway after uracil removal by UDG. Interestingly, one candidate ORF (open reading frame) for the AP endonuclease was found in the operon containing the gene encoding UDG in the P. furiosus genome. However, this ORF did not exhibit any activity. Instead, we identified the AP endonuclease activity from the other candidate gene products, and designated the protein as PfuAP. We discovered a physical interaction between PfuAP and PfuPCNA, suggesting the formation of a BER complex in one of the repair systems in P. furiosus.

The human checkpoint sensor and alternative clamp Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 can interact with and specifically stimulate DNA ligase I. The very recently described interactions of Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 with MutY DNA glycosylase, DNA polymerase β and Flap endonuclease 1 now complete our view that the long-patch base excision machinery is an important target of the Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 complex, thus enhancing the quality control of DNA.

ABSTRACT Germ line DNA directs the development of the next generation and, as such, is profoundly different from somatic cell DNA. Spermatogenic cells obtained from young adult lacI transgenic mice display a lower spontaneous mutant frequency and greater in vitro base excision repair activity than somatic cells and tissues obtained from the same mice. However, spermatogenic cells from old lacI mice display a 10-fold higher mutant frequency. This increased spontaneous mutant frequency occurs coincidentally with decreased in vitro base excision repair activity for germ cell and testicular extracts that in turn corresponds to a decreased abundance of AP endonuclease. To directly test whether a genetic diminution of AP endonuclease results in increased spontaneous mutant frequencies in spermatogenic cell types, AP endonuclease heterozygous (Apex +/−) knockout mice were crossed with lacI transgenic mice. Spontaneous mutant frequencies were significantly elevated (approximately twofold) for liver and spleen obtained from 3-month-old Apex +/− lacI + mice compared to frequencies from Apex +/+ lacI + littermates and were additionally elevated for somatic tissues from 9-month-old mice. Spermatogenic cells from 9-month-old Apex +/− lacI + mice were significantly elevated twofold compared to levels for 9-month-old Apex +/+ lacI + control mice. These data indicate that diminution of AP endonuclease has a significant effect on spontaneous mutagenesis in somatic and germ line cells.
