Techniques Used:

Dual-label fluorescence assay to monitor post-RNaseH2 RER by capillary electrophoresis. A, the RER substrate was generated by annealing a 44-nt (5′-MAX labeled) oligonucleotide and a 90-nt (3′-FAM labeled with a 5′-phosphate-rGMP) oligonucleotide to ssM13 DNA. Annealed oligos form a DNA substrate containing a nick with 3′-OH and 5′-phosphate-rG termini to mimic DNA nicked by RNaseH2. On CE, the double-stranded DNA is denatured and ssDNA oligonucleotides can be visualized individually. On the right is a hypothetical CE trace representing the expected result with two individual MAX and FAM oligonucleotide peaks. B, when a strand-displacing DNA polymerase is added, 5′-MAX-labeled strand displacement products larger than 44-nt can be observed. C, when a flap endonuclease is added, 3′-FAM products smaller than 90-nt (predominantly by 1–2 nt) are observed. D, full sealing and repair by ligation results in a FAM- and MAX-labeled 134-nt product.

Simplified models of ribonucleotide excision repair in Eukarya ( A ), Archaea ( B ), and Bacteria ( C ). A, rNMPs are incorporated into eukaryotic genomic DNA by any of the replicative polymerases (Polϵ, Polδ, or Polα) with the incorporation frequencies shown ( , , ). The RER pathway begins with incision by the heterotrimeric RNaseH2 followed by strand displacement synthesis by either of the replicative polymerases Polϵ or Polδ, flap cleavage by Fen1 or Exo1, and sealing by DNA ligase I. B, archaeal genomic DNA acquires rNMPs primarily through incorporation by the leading and lagging strand polymerase PolD at a rate of 1 rN in 1,500 nucleotides synthesized. Monomeric RNaseH2 nicks DNA at rNMP sites. Following cleavage, strand displacement synthesis by PolB creates a flap that is cleaved by Fen1 and DNA ligase seals the resulting nick. C, in bacteria, the replicative polymerase PolIII incorporates rNMPs in genomic DNA and monomeric RNaseHII nicks at these sites. PolI then fulfills two functions in RER by performing both strand displacement synthesis and flap cleavage. DNA ligase then seals the nick.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Simplified models of ribonucleotide excision repair in Eukarya ( A ), Archaea ( B ), and Bacteria ( C ). A, rNMPs are incorporated into eukaryotic genomic DNA by any of the replicative polymerases (Polϵ, Polδ, or Polα) with the incorporation frequencies shown ( , , ). The RER pathway begins with incision by the heterotrimeric RNaseH2 followed by strand displacement synthesis by either of the replicative polymerases Polϵ or Polδ, flap cleavage by Fen1 or Exo1, and sealing by DNA ligase I. B, archaeal genomic DNA acquires rNMPs primarily through incorporation by the leading and lagging strand polymerase PolD at a rate of 1 rN in 1,500 nucleotides synthesized. Monomeric RNaseH2 nicks DNA at rNMP sites. Following cleavage, strand displacement synthesis by PolB creates a flap that is cleaved by Fen1 and DNA ligase seals the resulting nick. C, in bacteria, the replicative polymerase PolIII incorporates rNMPs in genomic DNA and monomeric RNaseHII nicks at these sites. PolI then fulfills two functions in RER by performing both strand displacement synthesis and flap cleavage. DNA ligase then seals the nick.

Article Snippet: The Thermococcus sp. 9°N RNaseH2 gene was codon optimized for expression in E. coli , constructed synthetically (Genscript, Piscataway, NJ), and cloned into pAII17 plasmid vector ( ) cleaved with NdeI and BamHI to produce plasmid pESY.
