ABSTRACT E2F plays critical roles in cell cycle progression by regulating the expression of genes involved in nucleotide synthesis, DNA replication, and cell cycle control. We show that the combined loss of E2F1 and E2F2 in mice leads to profound cell-autonomous defects in the hematopoietic development of multiple cell lineages. E2F2 mutant mice show erythroid maturation defects that are comparable with those observed in patients with megaloblastic anemia. Importantly, hematopoietic defects observed in E2F1/E2F2 double-knockout (DKO) mice appear to result from impeded S phase progression in hematopoietic progenitor cells. During DKO B-cell maturation, differentiation beyond the large pre-BII-cell stage is defective, presumably due to failed cell cycle exit, and the cells undergo apoptosis. However, apoptosis appears to be the consequence of failed maturation, not the cause. Despite the accumulation of hematopoietic progenitor cells in S phase, the combined loss of E2F1 and E2F2 results in significantly decreased expression and activities of several E2F target genes including cyclin A2. Our results indicate specific roles for E2F1 and E2F2 in the induction of E2F target genes, which contribute to efficient expansion and maturation of hematopoietic progenitor cells. Thus, E2F1 and E2F2 play essential and redundant roles in the proper coordination of cell cycle progression with differentiation which is necessary for efficient hematopoiesis.

Cyclins and CDKs (Cyclin Dependent Kinases) are key players in the biology of eukaryotic cells, representing hubs for the orchestration of physiological conditions with cell cycle progression. Furthermore, as in the case of meiosis, cyclins and CDKs have acquired novel functions unrelated to this primal role in driving the division cycle. Meiosis is a specialized developmental program that ensures proper propagation of the genetic information to the next generation by the production of gametes with accurate chromosome content, and meiosis-specific cyclins are widespread in evolution. We have explored the diversification of CDK functions studying the meiosis-specific Crs1 cyclin in fission yeast. In addition to the reported role in DSB (Double Strand Break) formation, this cyclin is required for meiotic S-phase progression, a canonical role, and to maintain the architecture of the meiotic chromosomes. Crs1 localizes at the SPB (Spindle Pole Body) and is required to stabilize the cluster of telomeres at this location (bouquet configuration), as well as for normal SPB motion. In addition, Crs1 exhibits CDK(Cdc2)-dependent kinase activity in a biphasic manner during meiosis, in contrast to a single wave of protein expression, suggesting a post-translational control of its activity. Thus, Crs1 displays multiple functions, acting both in cell cycle progression and in several key meiosis-specific events.

Abstract p50, the mature product of NFKB1, is constitutively produced from its precursor, p105. Here, we identify BARD1 as a p50-interacting factor. p50 directly associates with the BARD1 BRCT domains via a C-terminal phospho-serine motif. This interaction is induced by ATR and results in mono-ubiquitination of p50 by the BARD1/BRCA1 complex. During the cell cycle, p50 is mono-ubiquitinated in S phase and loss of this post-translational modification increases S phase progression and chromosomal breakage. Genome-wide studies reveal a substantial decrease in p50 chromatin enrichment in S phase and Cycln E is identified as a factor regulated by p50 during the G1 to S transition. Functionally, interaction with BARD1 promotes p50 protein stability and consistent with this, in human cancer specimens, low nuclear BARD1 protein strongly correlates with low nuclear p50. These data indicate that p50 mono-ubiquitination by BARD1/BRCA1 during the cell cycle regulates S phase progression to maintain genome integrity.

Control of cell cycle progression by stress-activated protein kinases (SAPKs) is essential for cell adaptation to extracellular stimuli. Exposure of yeast to osmostress activates the Hog1 SAPK, which modulates cell cycle progression at G1 and G2 by the phosphorylation of elements of the cell cycle machinery, such as Sic1 and Hsl1, and by down-regulation of G1 and G2 cyclins. Here, we show that upon stress, Hog1 also modulates S phase progression. The control of S phase is independent of the S phase DNA damage checkpoint and of the previously characterized Hog1 cell cycle targets Sic1 and Hsl1. Hog1 uses at least two distinct mechanisms in its control over S phase progression. At early S phase, the SAPK prevents firing of replication origins by delaying the accumulation of the S phase cyclins Clb5 and Clb6. In addition, Hog1 prevents S phase progression when activated later in S phase or cells containing a genetic bypass for cyclin-dependent kinase activity. Hog1 interacts with components of the replication complex and delays phosphorylation of the Dpb2 subunit of the DNA polymerase. The two mechanisms of Hog1 action lead to delayed firing of origins and prolonged replication, respectively. The Hog1-dependent delay of replication could be important to allow Hog1 to induce gene expression before replication.

SAMHD1 activity is regulated by a network of mechanisms including phosphorylation, oxidation, oligomerization, and others. Significant questions remain about the effects of phosphorylation on SAMHD1 function and activity. We investigated the effects of a SAMHD1 T592E phosphorylation mimic on its cellular localization, catalytic activity, and cell cycle progression. We found that the SAMHD1 T592E is a catalytically active enzyme that is inhibited by protein oxidation. SAMHD1 T592E is retained in the nucleus at higher levels than the wild-type protein during growth factor-mediated signaling. This nuclear localization protects SAMHD1 from oxidation by cytoplasmic reactive oxygen species. The SAMHD1 T592E phosphomimetic further inhibits the cell cycle S/G2 transition. This has significant implications for SAMHD1 function in regulating innate immunity, antiviral response and DNA replication.

The Chk2-mediated deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage checkpoint pathway is important for mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) maintenance. We show in this paper that mtDNA itself affects cell cycle progression. Saccharomyces cerevisiae rho0 cells, which lack mtDNA, were defective in G1- to S-phase progression. Deletion of subunit Va of cytochrome c oxidase, inhibition of F1F0 adenosine triphosphatase, or replacement of all mtDNA-encoded genes with noncoding DNA did not affect G1- to S-phase progression. Thus, the cell cycle progression defect in rho0 cells is caused by loss of DNA within mitochondria and not loss of respiratory activity or mtDNA-encoded genes. Rad53p, the yeast Chk2 homologue, was required for inhibition of G1- to S-phase progression in rho0 cells. Pif1p, a DNA helicase and Rad53p target, underwent Rad53p-dependent phosphorylation in rho0 cells. Thus, loss of mtDNA activated an established checkpoint kinase that inhibited G1- to S-phase progression. These findings support the existence of a Rad53p-regulated checkpoint that regulates G1- to S-phase progression in response to loss of mtDNA.

During a developmental period that extends postnatally in the mouse, proliferating multipotent retinal progenitor cells produce one of 7 major cell types (rod, cone, bipolar, horizontal, amacrine, ganglion, and Müller glial cells) as they exit the cell cycle in consecutive waves. Cell production in the retina is tightly regulated by intrinsic, extrinsic, spatial, and temporal cues, and is coupled to the timing of cell cycle exit. Arsenic-resistance protein 2 (ARS2, also known as SRRT) is a component of the nuclear cap-binding complex involved in RNA Polymerase II transcription, and is required for cell cycle progression. We show that postnatal retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) require ARS2 for proper progression through S phase, and ARS2 disruption leads to early exit from the cell cycle. Furthermore, we observe an increase in the proportion of cells expressing a rod photoreceptor marker, and a loss of Müller glia marker expression, indicating a role for ARS2 in regulating cell fate specification or differentiation. Knockdown of Flice Associated Huge protein (FLASH), which interacts with ARS2 and is required for cell cycle progression and 3′-end processing of replication-dependent histone transcripts, phenocopies ARS2 knockdown. These data implicate ARS2–FLASH-mediated histone mRNA processing in regulating RPC cell cycle kinetics and neuroglial cell fate specification during postnatal retinal development.

PCAF and GCN5 acetylate cyclin A at specific lysine residues targeting it for degradation at mitosis. We report here that histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) directly interacts with and deacetylates cyclin A. HDAC3 interacts with a domain included in the first 171 aa of cyclin A, a region involved in the regulation of its stability. In cells, overexpression of HDAC3 reduced cyclin A acetylation whereas the knocking down of HDAC3 increased its acetylation. Moreover, reduction of HDAC3 levels induced a decrease of cyclin A that can be reversed by proteasome inhibitors. These results indicate that HDAC3 is able to regulate cyclin A degradation during mitosis via proteasome. Interestingly, HDAC3 is abruptly degraded at mitosis also via proteasome thus facilitating cyclin A acetylation by PCAF/GCN5, which will target cyclin A for degradation. Because cyclin A is crucial for S phase progression and mitosis entry, the knock down of HDAC3 affects cell cycle progression specifically at both, S phase and G2/M transition. In summary we propose here that HDAC3 regulates cyclin A stability by counteracting the action of the acetylases PCAF/GCN5.
