DNA Mismatch Repair
Could excise at either 3nick and 5nick?Whats the stop signal?Does sliding clamp consumed energy?primers at the replication fork may provide the strand discrimination signal
MMR in E. coli is initiated when MutS (Table 1) binds to mismatched DNA. MutS interacts with the -clamp accessory protein (64) that is required for pro-cessive DNA replication, and it may help deliver MutS to mismatches. Correction of the replication error requires that the newly synthesized strand be targeted for excision. This process is accomplished in an ATP-dependent manner when MutS interaction with MutL activates the latent endonuclease activity of MutH. MutH is a member of the type II family of restriction endonucleases whose crystal structure has been described (65). It cleaves the newly synthesized, temporarily unmethy-lated strand at hemimethylated GATC sites located within about 1kb of the error. The resulting nick, which can be either 3 or 5 to the mismatch, is the entry point for MutL-dependent loading of DNA helicase II and binding of single-strand DNA-binding protein. Working together, these proteins generate single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) that is digested by either 3 or 5 exonucleases, depending on the location of the nick relative to the mismatch. This excision removes the error and allows highly accurate DNA polymerase III to correctly resynthesize the strand. DNA ligase seals the nick to complete MMR.
3Sliding Clamp Formation
Tessmer, et.al (2008)A - smooth angle kink at Non-specific sites; B - Glu recognize MM site and form H bond to it; C - Phe stacks with MM bases on the DNA; D - ATP uptake inducing conformational change to form mobile clamp. Note: URC once formed, combined with ATP activation/uptake, makes URC irreversible. Thus, URC only need to be populated slightly to signal repair
4Sliding Clamp Formation
Qiu, et.al (2012)D:DOur results imply that this transition does not occur when MutS is doubly liganded with ADP. Notably,although mismatched DNA stimulates release of ADP, the rate of ADP release is similar to or slightly slower than the rate of ATP-induced release of MutS from unblocked DNA, and it is four times slower than the rate of release of doubly ADP-liganded MutS from the mismatch observed here. These results suggest that the doubly liganded ADP MutS is not converted to a sliding clamp in the presence of ATP. D:TSteady-state measurements in the presence of nucleotides suggest that both ATP and ADP must be bound to MutS during its conversion to a sliding clamp form that signals repair.Domain movementUpon binding homoduplex DNA, MutS predominantly adopts a high FRET state in which domains I are closed and then converts to a low FRET state in which domains I are open, while still on DNA, in both the presence and absence of ADP and ATP.
