Abstract Different pri1 and pri2 conditional mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae altered, respectively, in the small (p48) and large (p58) subunits of DNA primase, show an enhanced rate of both mitotic intrachromosomal recombination and spontaneous mutation, to an extent which is correlated with the severity of their defects in cell growth and DNA synthesis. These effects might be attributable to the formation of nicked and gapped DNA molecules that are substrates for recombination and error-prone repair, due to defective DNA replication in the primase mutants. Furthermore, pri1 and pri2 mutations inhibit sporulation and affect spore viability, with the unsporulated mutant cells arresting with a single nucleus, suggesting that DNA primase plays a critical role during meiosis. The observation that all possible pairwise combinations of two pri1 and two pri2 alleles are lethal provides further evidence for direct interaction of the primase subunits in vivo. Immunopurification and immunoprecipitation studies on wild-type and mutant strains suggest that the small subunit has a major role in determining primase activity, whereas the large subunit directly interacts with DNA polymerase alpha, and either mediates or stabilizes association of the p48 polypeptide in the DNA polymerase alpha-primase complex.

AbstractHuman DNA polymerase delta (Polδ), a holoenzyme consisting of p125, p50, p68 and p12 subunits, plays an essential role in all the three DNA transaction processes. Herein, using multiple physicochemical and cellular approaches we found that the p12 protein forms a dimer in solution. In vitro reconstitution and pull-down of cellular Polδ by tagged p12 authenticates pentameric nature of this critical holoenzyme. Further, a consensus PIP motif at the extreme carboxyl terminal tail and a homodimerization domain at the amino-terminus of the p12 subunit were identified. Our mutational analyses of p12 subunit suggest that 3RKR5 motif is critical for dimerization that facilitates p12 binding to IDCL of PCNA via its PIP motif 98QCSLWHLY105. Additionally, we observed that oligomerization of the smallest subunit of Polδs is evolutionarily conserved as Cdm1 of S. pombe also dimerzes. Thus, we suggest that human Polδ is a pentameric complex with a dimeric p12 subunit; and discuss implications of p12 dimerization in regulating enzyme architecture and PCNA interaction during DNA replication.
