Abstract

The human Rad17–Rfc2-5 and Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 complexes play crucial roles in the activation of the ATR-mediated DNA damage and DNA replication stress response pathways. In response to DNA damage, Rad9 is recruited to chromatin in a Rad17-dependent manner in human cells. However, the DNA structures recognized by the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex during the damage response have not been defined. Here, we show that replication protein A (RPA) stimulates the binding of the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), primed ssDNA, and a gapped DNA structure. Furthermore, RPA facilitates the recruitment of the Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 complex by the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex to primed and gapped DNA structures in vitro . These findings suggest that RPA-coated ssDNA is an important part of the structures recognized by the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex. Unlike replication factor C (RFC), which uses the 3′ primer/template junction to recruit proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex can use both the 5′ and the 3′ primer/template junctions to recruit the Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 complex, and it shows a preference for gapped DNA structures. These results explain how the Rad17–Rfc2-5 complex senses DNA damage and DNA replication stress to initiate checkpoint signaling.

  • ATR in complex with ATRIP binds RPA-coated single-stranded DNA through an ATRIP-RPA interaction, and ATRIP activates ATR checkpoint kinase activity.

    “ATR in complex with its nuclear binding partner ATR-interacting protein (ATRIP) binds to this RPA-coated ssDNA via an ATRIP-RPA interaction. ATRIP also serves to activate the checkpoint kinase activity of ATR 4, 27–30.”
  • ATRIP and Ddc2 directly bind RPA-covered ssDNA, while 9-1-1 loading requires an RFC-like complex that places it at the dsDNA/5′ ssDNA junction.

    “While ATRIP and Ddc2 directly bind RPA-covered ssDNA [44], loading of the 9-1-1 complex requires the activity of an RFC-like complex, that places it at the junction between dsDNA and 5′ ssDNA [45].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
