S. cerevisiae replisome-SCF(Dia2) complex bound to double-stranded DNA (conformation II)
Structural highlights
FunctionDIA2_YEAST F-box protein component of a SCF (SKP1-CUL1-F-box protein) E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase complex which mediates the ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation of target proteins. Probably recognizes and binds to phosphorylated target proteins (By similarity). The SCF(DIA2) complex is specifically involved in the pheromone induced degradation of phosphorylated TEC1. The SCF(DIA2) complex binds to DNA replication origins. Involved in DNA replication, genome stability, and the control of cell cycle, probably through its association to replication origins to facilitate the ubiquitination of another origin-binding protein. Required for invasive growth and growth under alkaline conditions.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Publication Abstract from PubMedReplisome disassembly is the final step of eukaryotic DNA replication and is triggered by ubiquitylation of the CDC45-MCM-GINS (CMG) replicative helicase(1-3). Despite being driven by evolutionarily diverse E3 ubiquitin ligases in different eukaryotes (SCF(Dia2) in budding yeast(1), CUL2(LRR1) in metazoa(4-7)), replisome disassembly is governed by a common regulatory principle, in which ubiquitylation of CMG is suppressed before replication termination, to prevent replication fork collapse. Recent evidence suggests that this suppression is mediated by replication fork DNA(8-10). However, it is unknown how SCF(Dia2) and CUL2(LRR1) discriminate terminated from elongating replisomes, to selectively ubiquitylate CMG only after termination. Here we used cryo-electron microscopy to solve high-resolution structures of budding yeast and human replisome-E3 ligase assemblies. Our structures show that the leucine-rich repeat domains of Dia2 and LRR1 are structurally distinct, but bind to a common site on CMG, including the MCM3 and MCM5 zinc-finger domains. The LRR-MCM interaction is essential for replisome disassembly and, crucially, is occluded by the excluded DNA strand at replication forks, establishing the structural basis for the suppression of CMG ubiquitylation before termination. Our results elucidate a conserved mechanism for the regulation of replisome disassembly in eukaryotes, and reveal a previously unanticipated role for DNA in preserving replisome integrity.
