    Abstract DNA helicases use energy derived from nucleoside 5'-triphosphate hydrolysis to catalyze the separation of double-stranded DNA into single-stranded intermediates for replication, recombination, and repair. Escherichia coli helicase II (UvrD) functions in methyl-directed mismatch repair, nucleotide excision repair, and homologous recombination. A previously discovered 2-amino acid substitution of residues 403 and 404 (both Asp → Ala) in the 2B subdomain of UvrD (uvrD303) confers an antimutator and UV-sensitive phenotype on cells expressing this allele. The purified protein exhibits a "hyper-helicase" unwinding activity in vitro. Using rapid quench, pre-steady state kinetic experiments we show the increased helicase activity of UvrD303 is due to an increase in the processivity of the unwinding reaction. We suggest that this mutation in the 2B subdomain results in a weakened interaction with the 1B subdomain, allowing the helicase to adopt a more open conformation. This is consistent with the idea that the 2B subdomain may have an autoregulatory role. The UvrD303 mutation may enable the helicase to unwind DNA via a "strand displacement" mechanism, which is similar to the mechanism used to processively translocate along single-stranded DNA, and the increased unwinding processivity may contribute directly to the antimutator phenotype.

    Abstract Most processes involving an organism's genetic material, including replication, repair and recombination, require access to single-stranded DNA as a template or reaction intermediate. To disrupt the hydrogen bonds between the two strands in double-stranded DNA, organisms utilize proteins called DNA helicases. DNA helicases use duplex DNA as a substrate to create single-stranded DNA in a reaction that requires ATP hydrolysis. Due to their critical role in cellular function, understanding the reaction catalyzed by helicases is essential to understanding DNA metabolism. Helicases are also important in many disease processes due to their role in DNA maintenance and replication. Here we discuss ways to rapidly purify helicases in sufficient quantity for biochemical analysis. We also briefly discuss potential substrates to use with helicases to establish some of their critical biochemical parameters. Through the use of methods that simplify the study of helicases, our understanding of these essential proteins can be accelerated.

  3. Artikel ; Online: Intrinsic hTRF1 fluorescence quenching reveals details of telomere DNA binding activity: impact of DNA length, structure and position of telomeric repeats.

    Abstract The myb-DNA binding domain is characterized by a 3-alpha helical bundle and three repeats of this domain drive sequence specific DNA binding of the c-myb transcription factor. Human TRF1 contains a single myb-related domain and as a homodimer, enables the sequence specific binding of telomeric DNA. In this report we provide a kinetic assessment of hTRF1 DNA binding activity. Using intrinsic fluorescence quenching we present evidence that hTRF1 binds to both telomeric and non-telomeric DNA with kinetic discrimination to allow stable binding to telomeric tracts of DNA. The position of telomere repeats does not impact binding though the number of repeats and structure does impact binding. Kinetic analysis of DNA-dependent intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence quenching of hTRF1 revealed a two step binding process that is impacted by telomere repeat length, position, and structure. These data are consistent with existing structural and equilibrium binding data for hTRF1 recognition and binding of telomere DNA.

    Abstract The Escherichia coli UvrD helicase is known to function in the mismatch repair and nucleotide excision repair pathways and has also been suggested to have roles in recombination and replication restart. The primary intermediate DNA structure in these two processes is the Holliday junction. UvrD has been shown to unwind a variety of substrates including partial duplex DNA, nicked DNA, forked DNA structures, blunt duplex DNA and RNA-DNA hybrids. Here, we demonstrate that UvrD also catalyzes the robust unwinding of Holliday junction substrates. To characterize this unwinding reaction we have employed steady-state helicase assays, pre-steady-state rapid quench helicase assays, DNaseI footprinting, and electron microscopy. We conclude that UvrD binds initially to the junction compared with binding one of the blunt ends of the four-way junction to initiate unwinding and resolves the synthetic substrate into two double-stranded fork structures. We suggest that UvrD, along with its mismatch repair partners, MutS and MutL, may utilize its ability to unwind Holliday junctions directly in the prevention of homeologous recombination. UvrD may also be involved in the resolution of stalled replication forks by unwinding the Holliday junction intermediate to allow bypass of the blockage.

    Abstract The BLM helicase associates with the telomere structural proteins TRF1 and TRF2 in immortalized cells using the alternative lengthening of telomere (ALT) pathways. This work focuses on identifying protein partners of BLM in cells using ALT. Mass spectrometry and immunoprecipitation techniques have identified three proteins that bind directly to BLM and TRF2 in ALT cells: telomerase-associated protein 1 (TEP1), heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), and topoisomerase IIα (TOPOIIα). BLM predominantly co-localizes with these proteins in foci actively synthesizing DNA during late S and G₂/M phases of the cell cycle when ALT is thought to occur. Immunoprecipitation studies also indicate that only HSP90 and TOPOIIα are components of a specific complex containing BLM, TRF1, and TRF2 but that this complex does not include TEP1. TEP1, TOPOIIα, and HSP90 interact directly with BLM in vitro and modulate its helicase activity on telomere-like DNA substrates but not on non-telomeric substrates. Initial studies suggest that knockdown of BLM in ALT cells reduces average telomere length but does not do so in cells using telomerase.
