USP7 coordinates the S/M transition 2 SUMMARY To ensure a faithful segregation of chromosomes, DNA must be fully replicated before mitotic entry. However, how cells sense the completion of DNA replication and to what extent this is linked to the activation of the mitotic machinery remains poorly understood. We previously showed that USP7 is a replisome-associated deubiquitinase with an essential role in DNA replication. -

Previous studies have focussed on the pathogenesis of liver cirrhosis developing into HCC, but the molecular mechanism remains unclear. The aims of the present study were to identify key genes related to the transformation of cirrhosis into HCC, and explore the associated molecular mechanisms. Methods: GSE89377, GSE17548, GSE63898 and GSE54236 mRNA microarray datasets from Gene Expression Omni- bus (GEO) were analysed to obtain diferentially expressed genes (DEGs) between HCC and liver cirrhosis tissues, and network analysis of protein–protein interactions (PPIs) was carried out. String and Cytoscape were used to analyse modules and identify hub genes, Kaplan–Meier Plotter and Oncomine databases were used to explore relationships between hub genes and disease occurrence, development and prognosis of HCC, and the molecular mechanism of the main hub gene was probed using Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) pathway analysis. -

Human DNA2 Possesses a Cryptic DNA Unwinding Activity That
RESEARCH ARTICLE Human DNA2 possesses a cryptic DNA unwinding activity that functionally integrates with BLM or WRN helicases Cosimo Pinto1, Kristina Kasaciunaite2, Ralf Seidel2, Petr Cejka1* 1Institute of Molecular Cancer Research, University of Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland; 2Institute of Experimental Physics I, University of Leipzig, Leipzig, Germany Abstract Human DNA2 (hDNA2) contains both a helicase and a nuclease domain within the same polypeptide. The nuclease of hDNA2 is involved in a variety of DNA metabolic processes. Little is known about the role of the hDNA2 helicase. Using bulk and single-molecule approaches, we show that hDNA2 is a processive helicase capable of unwinding kilobases of dsDNA in length. The nuclease activity prevents the engagement of the helicase by competing for the same substrate, hence prominent DNA unwinding by hDNA2 alone can only be observed using the nuclease-deficient variant. We show that the helicase of hDNA2 functionally integrates with BLM or WRN helicases to promote dsDNA degradation by forming a heterodimeric molecular machine. This collectively suggests that the hDNA2 motor promotes the enzyme’s capacity to degrade dsDNA in conjunction with BLM or WRN and thus promote the repair of broken DNA.

Cell Cycle-Dependent Modification of Pot1 and Its Effects on Telomere
Cell cycle-dependent modification of Pot1 and its effects on telomere function Vitaliy Kuznetsov Thesis submitted towards the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University College of London Department of Biology London, WC1E 6BT The program of research was carried out at Cancer Research U.K. Laboratory of Telomere Biology 44 Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London, U.K. WC2A 3PX Supervisor: Dr Julia Promisel Cooper September 2008 I, Vitaliy Kuznetsov, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. ABSTRACT Telomere functions are tightly controlled throughout the cell cycle to allow telomerase access while suppressing a bona fide DNA damage response (DDR) at linear chromosome ends. However, the mechanisms that link cell cycle progression with telomere functions are largely unknown. Here we show that a key S-phase kinase, DDK (Dbf4-dependent protein kinase), phosphorylates the telomere binding protein Pot1, and that this phosphorylation is crucial for DNA damage checkpoint inactivation, the suppression of homologous recombination (HR) at telomeres, and the prevention of telomere loss. DDK phosphorylates Pot1 in a very conserved region of its most amino-terminal-proximal OB fold, suggesting that this regulation of telomere function may be widely conserved. Mutation of Pot1 phosphorylation sites leads to telomerase independent telomere maintenance through constant HR, as well as a dependence of telomere maintenance proteins involved in checkpoint activation and HR. These results uncover a novel and important link between DDR suppression and telomere maintenance. The failure in Pot1 phosphorylation and DDR inactivation could potentially lead to uncontrolled cell proliferation without a requirement for telomerase by switching cells to HR dependent telomere homeostasis. -
