项目摘要

In order to study how cells establish fidelity DNA replication during the lagging strand DNA replication, we isolated active mutants in Saccharomyces cerevisiae pol alpha that have a defect in error discrimination. Among them, L868F pol alpha has a spontaneous error frequency of 3 in 100 nucleotides and 570-fold lower replication fidelity than wild type. In vivo, L868F pol alpha confers a mutator phenotype. For this result, we suggest accurate DNA synthesis by pol alpha is important to suppress genomic instability in cells. We also found L868F pol alpha catalyzed relatively efficient bypass of a cis-syn cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer, extending the 3'-T 26000-fold more efficiently than wild type. This type of activity is characteristic to translesion DNA polymerases, which are classified in another family of DNA polymerases. Interestingly, leucine and phenylalanine residues are conserved in replicative and translesion DNA polymerases, respectively. In a translesion DNA polymerase eta mutant of S. cerevisiae F34L pol eta showed reduced translesion DNA synthesis activity in vitro. The corresponding mutants in human DNA polymerases also showed the similar biochemical features. These data suggest that the phenylalanine and leucine residues may have played a role in the functional evolution of these enzyme classes.The observed high fidelity of chromosomal replication is achieved not only through mechanisms that enhance correct nucleotide insertion by the DNA polymerase but also through ones that correct errors after they occur. We are under investigation of the downstream pathways that may either suppress or promote genomic instability.

为了研究细胞如何在滞后链DNA复制过程中建立富达DNA复制，我们在酿酒酵母pol Alpha中分离了活性突变体，这些突变体在误差歧视方面存在缺陷。其中，L868F POL Alpha的自发误差频率比野生型的100个核苷酸中的3个，复制保真度低570倍。在体内，L868F pol alpha赋予突变器表型。为此，我们建议由POLα进行准确的DNA合成，对于抑制细胞中的基因组不稳定性很重要。我们还发现L868F POL Alpha催化了CIS-Syn环丁烷嘧啶二聚体相对高效的旁路，比野生型高效率3'-T 26000倍。这种类型的活性是跨性别DNA聚合酶的特征，该聚合酶被分类在另一个DNA聚合酶中。有趣的是，亮氨酸和苯丙氨酸残基分别在复制和跨性别DNA聚合酶中保守。在酿酒酵母F34L pol Eta的透疗DNA聚合酶ETA突变体中显示了体外的跨性DNA合成活性。人DNA聚合酶中的相应突变体也显示出相似的生化特征。这些数据表明，苯丙氨酸和亮氨酸残基可能在这些酶类别的功能演化中发挥了作用。观察到的高忠诚度不仅是通过增强DNA聚合酶增强正确核苷酸插入的机制来实现的，而且还通过在发生后正确错误的机制来实现。我们正在研究可能抑制或促进基因组不稳定性的下游途径。
