SDE2 integrates into the TIMELESS-TIPIN complex to protect stalled replication forks

Abstract: Protecting replication fork integrity during DNA replication is essential for maintaining genome stability. Here, we report that SDE2, a PCNA-associated protein, plays a key role in maintaining active replication and counteracting replication stress by regulating the replication fork protection complex (FPC). SDE2 directly interacts with the FPC component TIMELESS (TIM) and enhances its stability, thereby aiding TIM localization to replication forks and the coordination of replisome progression. Like TIM defic… Show more

“…Importantly, a TIM-EdU PLA assay to visualize TIM at EdU-labeled ongoing replication forks demonstrated that unlike the wild-type, the ΔSAP mutant fails to complement the percentage of cells with positive PLA foci to the level of control following siRNA knockdown and dox induction, indicating that SDE2 SAP is necessary for the localization of TIM at replication forks, similar to the phenotype of the ΔSDE2 domain mutant as we previously showed ( Fig. 7 , C and D ) (19). Accordingly, DNA combing analysis, which allows for monitoring dynamics of single DNA replication tracks, revealed that cells re-expressing the ΔSAP mutant exhibit a significant shortening of replication tracks in comparison to wild-type cells, indicating that SDE2 SAP is required for the function of TIM to support efficient fork progression ( Fig.…”

“…The high resolution of our cryo‐EM map has enabled us to build an atomic model for the core human replisome that provides a wealth of information showing how five key replisome proteins are organised by CMG, the complex protein:protein interactions that underpin this organisation and how replication fork DNA is coordinated for template unwinding. The stable positioning of TIMELESS‐TIPIN at the front of the replisome enables it to grip dsDNA before unwinding and this is likely to be important for TIMELESS‐TIPIN‐dependent replication fork stabilisation and fork protection (Leman et al , 2010 ; Rageul et al , 2020 ), perhaps by stabilising the entire replisome on chromatin when its progression is perturbed. The C‐terminal ˜400 a.a. of TIMELESS contains a DBD and PBD.…”
