Abstract
Strand displacement DNA synthesis (SDDS) is an essential step in DNA replication. With magnetic tweezers, we investigated SDDS kinetics of wild-type gp90 and its exonuclease-deficient polymerase gp90 exo- at single-molecule level. A novel binding state of gp90 to the fork flap was confirmed prior to SDDS, suggesting an intermediate in the initiation of SDDS. The rate and processivity of SDDS by gp90 exo- or wt-gp90 are increased with force and dNTP concentration. The rate and processivity of exonuclease by wt-gp90 are decreased with force. High GC content decreases SDDS and exonuclease processivity but increases exonuclease rate for wt-gp90. The high force and dNTP concentration and low GC content facilitate the successive SDDS but retard the successive exonuclease for wt-gp90. Furthermore, increasing GC content accelerates the transition from SDDS or exonuclease to exonuclease. This work reveals the kinetics of SDDS in detail and offers a broader cognition on the regulation of various factors on SDDS at single-polymerase level.

Abstract
Strand displacement DNA synthesis is essential for DNA replication. Gp90, the sole DNA polymerase of Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage 1, can bypass multiply DNA lesions. However, whether it can perform strand displacement synthesis is still unknown. In this work, we found that gp90 exo- could perform strand displacement synthesis, albeit its activity and processivity were lower than those of primer extension. Gp90 exo- itself could not unwind Y-shaped or fork DNA. Tail and gap at DNA fork were necessary for efficient synthesis. High GC content obviously inhibited strand displacement synthesis. Consecutive GC sequence at the entrance of fork showed more inhibition effect on DNA synthesis than that in the downstream DNA fork. The fraction of productive polymerase and DNA complex (A values) was higher for fork than gap; while their average extension rates (kp values) were similar. However, both A and kp values were lower than those for the primer/template (P/T) substrate. The binding of gp90 exo- to fork was tighter than P/T or gap in the absence of dATP. In the presence of dATP to form ternary complex, the binding affinity of gp90 exo- to P/T or gap was increased compared with that in the binary complex. Abasic site, 8-oxoG, and O6-MeG inhibited and even blocked strand displacement synthesis. This work shows that gp90 exo- could perform strand displacement DNA synthesis at DNA fork, discovering the presence of new functions of PaP1 DNA polymerase in DNA replication and propagation of PaP1.

Archaeal DNA polymerases: new frontiers in DNA replication and repair. Emerg Top Life Sci 2018; 2:503-516. [PMID: 33525823 DOI: 10.1042/etls20180015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/19/2018] [Revised: 09/27/2018] [Accepted: 10/08/2018] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Archaeal DNA polymerases have long been studied due to their superior properties for DNA amplification in the polymerase chain reaction and DNA sequencing technologies. However, a full comprehension of their functions, recruitment and regulation as part of the replisome during genome replication and DNA repair lags behind well-established bacterial and eukaryotic model systems. The archaea are evolutionarily very broad, but many studies in the major model systems of both Crenarchaeota and Euryarchaeota are starting to yield significant increases in understanding of the functions of DNA polymerases in the respective phyla. Recent advances in biochemical approaches and in archaeal genetic models allowing knockout and epitope tagging have led to significant increases in our understanding, including DNA polymerase roles in Okazaki fragment maturation on the lagging strand, towards reconstitution of the replisome itself. Furthermore, poorly characterised DNA polymerase paralogues are finding roles in DNA repair and CRISPR immunity. This review attempts to provide a current update on the roles of archaeal DNA polymerases in both DNA replication and repair, addressing significant questions that remain for this field.
