Saccharomyces cerevisiae Dbf4 Has Unique Fold Necessary for Interaction with Rad53 Kinase

Abstract: Background: Dbf4, the regulatory subunit of Cdc7, has essential roles in initiation of DNA replication and checkpoint activation. Results:We have identified the domain of Dbf4 that is necessary and sufficient for the interaction with Rad53. Conclusion:The structural integrity of this domain is essential for Dbf4-Rad53 interaction. Significance: This work suggests how single BRCT domains can be adapted to form complex functional units.

“…There is mounting evidence indicating that both single and tandem BRCT domains may require additional secondary structural elements to form functional units [10,12,81,82]. Some of these structural elements are required for structural stability, such as the additional C-terminal α-helix in the PARP-1 BRCT [81], while others enhance function ( Figure 7).…”

“…It is conceivable that these additional structural elements play the dual role of stabilizing the BRCT fold and enhancing its function. In fact, this is the case of S. cerevisiae Dbf4, the regulatory subunit of the Cdc7 kinase, where an α -helix immediately precedes the β1 strand and its presence is important for the stability of the domain, as well as the interaction with Rad53 during the checkpoint response [10,83]. …”
