  22. How does the tetramer bind to DNA?

  23. Differences in DNA binding kinetics between tetramer and dimer

  24. Slow off-rate of the MutS tetramer only on longer DNA Fitting of kinetic data for extended tetramer on DNA not possible

  25. Slow off-rate of the MutS tetramer Mixture of straight and bend-over MutS

  26. Bending over of the tetramer is possible M4M  8 Å M17M  22 Å ~100 Å Crosslinking experiment

  27. Bending over of the tetramer is possible Conformations representative of the major peaks Fit of EOM selected conformations to from the EOM (red: selected conformations) SAXS data Ensemble optimization (EOM) of pool of 10000 conformations using model of D835R (1-800) linked via 22 dummy atoms to tetramerization domain structure (2OK2): those conformations that describe the scattering curve best are selected, representative examples are shown Maxim Petoukhov Groothuizen, Fish et al, NAR 2013

  28. Generation of MutS dimers and tetramers - Allowed fitting of kinetic data - Allowed structure solution of full length MutS - Allowed SAXS analysis of dimers and tetramers - SAXS shows that dimer is predominantly extended - Biochemical experiments and EOM show that tetramer bends over occasionally Groothuizen, Fish et al, NAR 2013

  29. Conclusions • The MutS tetramer can bend over and in that way dissociates slowly from DNA • Careful analysis of SAXS data required to analyse this • The MutS dimer mutant is a single DNA-binding unit and simplifies the system:quantitative analysis of mismatch binding and sliding clamp formation • Sliding clamp formation is impaired when binding a C . C mismatch; may explain why this mismatch is not repaired efficiently

  37. 8 nm 5 nm 14 nm 5.5 nm HUBL domain - elongated, - long atom-atom distances HUBL + catalytic domain - long distances lost - HUBL domain folds back onto CD

  38. Understanding the activation process HUBL-45 indeed binds the catalytic domain HUBL-45 is sufficient for full activity HUBL-45 activates in trans C-terminal 19 amino acid tail is important but not sufficient -requires HUBL-45 for binding

  42. Point mutations block activation by HUBL-45

  43. Usp7 point mutations block activation by HUBL-45 Annette Dirac Over-expression in U2OS

  44. Model for HUBL activation of USP7 - Inactive state : HUBL-45 interaction - Active state : Interaction with HUBL-45 - Low ubiquitin affinity - High affinity for ubiquitin - Disorganized active site - Catalytically competent active site - ‘inactive’ switching loop - ‘Active’ switching loop

  45. Model for activation of USP7 Are there other regulators - Stabilizing the ‘on’ state - Stabilizing the ‘off’ state GMPS is an allosteric activator - Binds to HUBL-13 exclusively - Promotes the interaction between HUBL-45 and catalytic domain (20-fold ) - Shifts the equlibrium to the active state. -

  46. Activation of USP4

  47. USP4/USP7 regulation USP4 - Full length USP4 much more active than CD - DUSP-UBL binds to insert to promote Ub release - Switching loop serves as relay USP7 - Full length USP7 much more active than CD - UBL domains HUBL45 bind to CD allow ubiquitin binding - Switching loop serves as relay - GMPS can allosterically promote this type of activation

  49. During DNA replication PCNA promotes processivity of DNA polymerases PCNA

  51. Attempts to produce ubiquitinated PCNA for biophysical studies • Native PCNA-Ub – PNAS 2005, 2006 • ‘Split’ PCNA – Co-expression of PCNA (1-163) with Ubiquitin fused in-line with PCNA (164-261) – Nature SMB (2010) • Intein PCNA – Nature Chem Biol (2010) • Click PCNA – Incorporating unnatural amino acids – Chembiochem (2011)

  52. How does PCNA change upon ubiquitination • Crystal structure of ‘split’ PCNA – Co-expression of PCNA (1-163) with Ubiquitin fused in-line with PCNA (164-261) – Ubiquitin buries its hydrophobic patch • Saxs analysis of ‘split’ PCNA and intein -based link – 70% ordered structure, 2 major states. +
