Tracking of controlled Escherichia coli replication fork stalling and restart at repressor-bound DNA in vivo.
We report an efficient, controllable, site-specific replication roadblock that blocks cell proliferation, but which can be rapidly and efficiently reversed, leading to recovery of viability. Escherichia coli replication forks of both polarities stalled in vivo within the first 500 bp of a 10 kb repressor-bound array of operator DNA-binding sites. Controlled release of repressor binding led to r...
متن کاملProtein-DNA complexes are the primary sources of replication fork pausing in Escherichia coli.
Replication fork pausing drives genome instability, because any loss of paused replisome activity creates a requirement for reloading of the replication machinery, a potentially mutagenic process. Despite this importance, the relative contributions to fork pausing of different replicative barriers remain unknown. We show here that Deinococcus radiodurans RecD2 helicase inactivates Escherichia c...
متن کاملRole of PriA in replication fork reactivation in Escherichia coli.
As a result of the work of many laboratories, a new paradigm describing the manner by which bacteria respond to repair DNA damage has emerged. This paradigm holds that under any growth condition, essentially all replication forks formed at oriC encounter DNA damage and either stall or collapse before they can complete synthesis of the genome. Maintenance of cell viability therefore requires bot...
متن کاملThe Escherichia coli GTPase ObgE modulates hydroxyl radical levels in response to DNA replication fork arrest.
Obg proteins are universally conserved GTP-binding proteins that are essential for viability in bacteria. Homologs in different organisms are involved in various cellular processes, including DNA replication. The goal of this study was to analyse the structure-function relationship of Escherichia coli ObgE with regard to DNA replication in general and sensitivity to stalled replication forks in...
متن کاملReplication Termination: Containing Fork Fusion-Mediated Pathologies in Escherichia coli
Duplication of bacterial chromosomes is initiated via the assembly of two replication forks at a single defined origin. Forks proceed bi-directionally until they fuse in a specialised termination area opposite the origin. This area is flanked by polar replication fork pause sites that allow forks to enter but not to leave. The precise function of this replication fork trap has remained enigmati...
