Dual daughter strand incision is processive and increases the efficiency of DNA mismatch repair

Abstract: DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is an evolutionarily-conserved process responsible for the repair of replication errors. In Escherichia coli, MMR is initiated by MutS and MutL, which activate MutH to incise transiently-hemimethylated GATC sites. MMR efficiency depends on the distribution of these GATC sites. To understand which molecular events determine repair efficiency, we quantitatively studied the effect of strand incision on unwinding and excision activity. The distance between mismatch and GATC site did not i… Show more

“…On substrate GT#2, we observed formation of small amounts of reaction intermediates containing a single incision at either GATC site 1 or site 2, and progressive accumulation of reaction product in which both GATC sites were incised (Figure 1B and 1E;left panel). This rapid conversion of single-nicked intermediates into double-nicked products on linearized substrate is similar to what we have observed previously on circular GT#2 35 . However, while on circular GT#2 GATC site preference was undetectable (Supplemental Figure S1), on linear GT#2 we observed a preference for nicking GATC site 2, which is close to the mismatch ( Figure 1E Figure S1).…”

“…The estimated maximal accumulation of reaction intermediates that are nicked either at GATC site 1 or GATC site 2 adds up to 30% of total substrate. This is similar to the observed amount of single-nicked intermediate obtained on circular DNA at otherwise identical conditions (see Figure 3C left panel in 35 ); indicating that also on linear DNA dual GATC site incision is processive 35 .…”
