Expression, purification and preliminary X-ray analysis of the BRCT domain from Rhp9/Crb2.
The BRCT domain from Rhp9 (a Schizosaccharomyces pombe DNA-damage checkpoint protein) has been expressed, purified and crystallized. Overexpression in bacterial cells was achieved by minimizing aeration during host cell growth. A robotic screen was used to determine the solubility parameters; concentration of the protein was achieved by exploiting this information. Single crystals suitable for ...
متن کاملRegulation of checkpoint kinases through dynamic interaction with Crb2.
ATR/Rad3-like kinases promote the DNA damage checkpoint through regulating Chk1 that restrains the activation of cyclin-dependent kinases. In fission yeast, Crb2, a BRCT-domain protein that is similar to vertebrate 53BP1, plays a crucial role in establishing this checkpoint. We report here that Crb2 regulates DNA damage checkpoint through temporal and dynamic interactions with Rad3, Chk1 and re...
متن کاملPhosphorylation-dependent assembly and coordination of the DNA damage checkpoint apparatus by Rad4(TopBP1).
The BRCT-domain protein Rad4(TopBP1) facilitates activation of the DNA damage checkpoint in Schizosaccharomyces pombe by physically coupling the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 clamp, the Rad3(ATR) -Rad26(ATRIP) kinase complex, and the Crb2(53BP1) mediator. We have now determined crystal structures of the BRCT repeats of Rad4(TopBP1), revealing a distinctive domain architecture, and characterized their phosphor...
متن کاملHistone modification-dependent and -independent pathways for recruitment of checkpoint protein Crb2 to double-strand breaks.
Cellular responses to DNA damage involve the relocalization of checkpoint proteins to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The fission yeast checkpoint mediator protein Crb2, a homolog of mammalian 53BP1, forms ionizing radiation-induced nuclear foci (IRIF). The IRIF formation by Crb2 requires histone H2A C-terminal phosphorylation and H4-K20 methylation. However, the relevance of Crb2 relocalizati...
متن کاملPhosphorylation and rapid relocalization of 53BP1 to nuclear foci upon DNA damage.
53BP1 is a human BRCT protein that was originally identified as a p53-interacting protein by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae two-hybrid screen. Although the carboxyl-terminal BRCT domain shows similarity to Crb2, a DNA damage checkpoint protein in fission yeast, there is no evidence so far that implicates 53BP1 in the checkpoint. We have identified a Xenopus homologue of 53BP1 (XL53BP1). XL53BP1 i...
