The Saccharomyces cerevisiae F-box protein Dia2 is a mediator of S-phase checkpoint recovery from DNA damage.
Cell-cycle progression is monitored by checkpoint pathways that pause the cell cycle when stress arises to threaten the integrity of the genome. Although activation of checkpoint pathways has been extensively studied, our understanding of how cells resume the cell cycle when the stress is resolved is relatively limited. In this study, we identify the Saccharomyces cerevisiae F-box protein Dia2 ...
متن کاملSuppression of Spontaneous Chromosomal Rearrangements by S Phase Checkpoint Functions in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Cancer cells show increased genome rearrangements, although it is unclear what defects cause these rearrangements. Mutations in Saccharomyces cerevisiae RFC5, DPB11, MEC1, DDC2 MEC3, RAD53, CHK1, PDS1, and DUN1 increased the rate of genome rearrangements up to 200-fold whereas mutations in RAD9, RAD17, RAD24, BUB3, and MAD3 had little effect. The rearrangements were primarily deletion of a port...
متن کاملS-phase checkpoint genes safeguard high-fidelity sister chromatid cohesion.
Cohesion establishment and maintenance are carried out by proteins that modify the activity of Cohesin, an essential complex that holds sister chromatids together. Constituents of the replication fork, such as the DNA polymerase alpha-binding protein Ctf4, contribute to cohesion in ways that are poorly understood. To identify additional cohesion components, we analyzed a ctf4Delta synthetic let...
متن کاملAn ATM-independent S-phase checkpoint response involves CHK1 pathway.
After exposure to genotoxic stress, proliferating cells actively slow down the DNA replication through a S-phase checkpoint to provide time for repair. We report that in addition to the ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM)-dependent pathway that controls the fast response, there is an ATM-independent pathway that controls the slow response to regulate the S-phase checkpoint after ionizing radiat...
متن کاملRole of Dot1-dependent histone H3 methylation in G1 and S phase DNA damage checkpoint functions of Rad9.
We screened radiation-sensitive yeast mutants for DNA damage checkpoint defects and identified Dot1, the conserved histone H3 Lys 79 methyltransferase. DOT1 deletion mutants (dot1Delta) are G1 and intra-S phase checkpoint defective after ionizing radiation but remain competent for G2/M arrest. Mutations that affect Dot1 function such as Rad6-Bre1/Paf1 pathway gene deletions or mutation of H2B L...
