What is repaired?
  • Base-base mismatches (misincorporation)
  • G.T, A.C gt G.G A.A gt T.T, C.T., G.A gt C.C (not
    repaired)
  • Insertion deletion loops (polymerase slippage)

The mechanism
  • The mispair is recognized by MutS. MutL is
    recruited.
  • MutH endonuclease activated in presence of MutS,
    MutL, a mismatch and ATP hydrolysis
  • The activated MutH cleaves the unmodified strand
    at a GATC site that can be on either side of the
    mismatch.
  • MutS and MutL help to load DNA helicase II (uvrD
    gene product) in a biased fashion so that it
    unwinds towards the mismatch.
  • Excision takes place in the region spanning the
    two sites.
  • Repair synthesis is initiated near the GATC site
    or the mismatch, depending on the polarity of the
    unmodified strand.

9
MutS
  • MutS (853aa, 95kD) forms dimers shaped like a
    fenestrated disk that encircles DNA containing a
    mispair or insertion deletion loop.
  • The N-terminal domain is involved in DNA binding
  • C-term involved dimerization and binding to MutL.
  • C-term also possesses an asymmetric ATP binding
    and hydrolysis activity.
  • Conserved Phe residue at the DNA binding site
    stacks against the mispaired base (T of a G.T
    mispair) or IDL.
  • May also form H bonds with unpaired bases.
  • The affinity of binding correlates with the
    efficiency with which different proteins are
    repaired (G.T highest, C.C not repaired)

10
Crystal structure of Taq MutS
11
MutH
  • 25kD monomeric protein with a weak endonuclease
    activity in isolation.
  • In presence of MutS, MutL, mispair ternary
    complex the endonuclease activity is greatly
    stimulated.
  • Nicks one strand of at unmethylated GATC sequence
    5 or 3 to the mispair.

12
MutL
  • Forms a ring shaped dimer.
  • Probably interacts with one subunit of MutS.
  • Bridges between MutS and MutH.
  • Has an N-term ATPase domain which can bind non
    specifically to DNA and stimulate MutH to cleave
    at the GATC site
  • ATP binding and not hydrolysis is required for
    stimulation of MutH endonuclease.

13
Helicase II (UvrD)
  • Stimulated by MutL in a mismatch dependent
    manner.
  • Translocates along DNA in a 3 5 direction in
    an ATP driven manner and unwinds towards the
    mismatch.
  • Loaded at the GATC incision when the nick is 3
    to the mismatch and on the continuous strand when
    the nick is 5 to the incision.
  • Subsequent degradation of the unwound strand is
    carried out by the 4 exonucleases
  • ExoVII and RecJ- 5 3 exonuclease and
  • ExoI and ExoX 3 5 exonuclease

14
MMR assay
15
(A) MutS binds to DNA nonspecifically and bends
it in search of a mismatch (B) upon specific
recognition of a mismatch, MutS undergoes a
conformational change to an initial recognition
complex (IRC) in which the DNA is kinked, with
interactions similar to those in the crystal
structures and (C) MutS then undergoes further
conformational changes to the ultimate
recognition complex (URC) in which the DNA is
unbent with the mismatched base possibly being
flipped out.

MutS homologs
  • 6 homologs in S. Cerevisiae (MSH1-MSH6)
  • MSH1 protein targeted to yeast mitochondria (no
    homolog in humans). Acts as a backup to
    mitochondrial BER for repair of oxidative damage
    to mitDNA
  • MSH2, MSH6 involved in MMR
  • MSH3, MSH6 involved in MMR
  • MSH4 AND MSH5 involved in meiosis (crossing over
  • during meiotic recombination)
  • MSH6 was initially called GTBP or p160 in humans

Nuclear localization
22
MutL homologs
  • Four MutL homologs have been identified in
    eukaryotes (MSH1-3 and PMS1)
  • MLH1-PMS1 (PMS2 in humans) involved in MMR
    interacts with MSH2.
  • MLH1-MLH3 repair insertion deletion loops via the
    MSH2-MSH3 pathway
  • The repair of IDLs between 1-16 bases requires
    Msh2, Msh3 and Pms1 with Mlh2 and Mlh3 playing
    minor roles
  • Larger loops around 100 nucleotides involves Msh2
    and Mlh2.
  • Transcription of MSH2 MSH6 and MLH1 genes are
    cell cycle regulated reaching peak expression at
    the G1 phase, consistent with their action
    repairing mismatches during S phase.

Affi-Gel beads. After precipitation, the proteins
were fractionated by SDSPAGE and Msh6p was
visualized by western blot. Lane 1, purified

the PCNA beads lane 6, Msh2p-Msh6p bound to the
mock-treated beads.

PCNA stimulates MSH2-MSH6 binding to DNA

MSH2-MSH6 is transferred from PCNA to the mispair

28
Role of PCNA
  • PCNA is naturally loaded onto 3-primer termini
    in replication intermediates and is then left on
    the replicating regions of DNA when replication
    proteins dissociate.
  • This could then target MSH2-MSH6 and MSH2-MSH3 to
    replicating regions of DNA where mispaired bases
    would normally be found.
  • MSH2-MSH6 associates with PCNA that is tethered
    to DNA to form a nonspecific PCNA-MSH2-MSH6
    complex, and once this complex encounters a
    mispair, the MSH2-MSH6 is transferred from PCNA
    to the mispair, thus activating MMR.
  • Such a mechanism would increase the intracellular
    mispair recognition affinity of MSH2-MSH6 at
    newly replicated DNA.

29
Strand discrimination
  • No GATC methylation in eukaryotes.
  • MSH3 and MSH6 have been shown to colocalize with
    the replication foci
  • 5 ends of Okazaki fragments, together with PCNA
    which is preferentially deposited on DNA during
    lagging strand replication are used as strand
    discrimination signals by MMR
  • Mutations in the leading strand occur 10 times
    more often than on the lagging strand.

30
Downstream events role of ATP
  • MutS/MutSa binds to ATP after the initial
    mismatch recognition and in complex with
    MutL/MutLa searches along DNA for a strand
    discrimination signal in an ATP hydrolysis
    dependent manner.

Downstream events role of ATP
  • Binding of ATP after mismatch recognition
    converts it to a sliding clamp that diffuses
    along the DNA in an ATP hydrolysis independent
    manner with hydrolysis occurring later.

Figure 6. Model for Mismatch-, MutS-, MutL-, and
RPA-Dependent Modulation of EXOI Activity EXOI
initiates poorly at a single-strand break, and
MutS facilitates this reaction in a
mismatch-dependent manner. Once EXOI is loaded
by MutS, excision proceeds in a highly processive
manner in the absence of RPA (left diagram). In
the presence of RPA (right diagram), the initial
gap produced by EXOI is filled by the
single-strand binding protein. This results in
displacement of EXOI, MutS, or both proteins
from the helix after removal of about 250
nucleotides. Like a single-strand break, an
RPA-filled gap is a weak substrate for EXOI, but
MutS promotes reloading of the hydrolytic
activity provided that mismatch remains within
the DNA. Hence, in the presence of RPA, excision
is attenuated upon mismatch removal, and this
effect is potentiated by MutS and MutL, which
further suppress EXOI activity on DNA that lacks
a mismatch. Jochen Genschel and
