Abstract
DNA replication is a fundamental cellular process that ensures the transfer of genetic information during cell division. Genome duplication takes place in S phase and requires a dynamic and highly coordinated recruitment of multiple proteins at replication forks. Various genotoxic stressors lead to fork instability and collapse, hence the need for DNA repair pathways. By identifying the multitude of protein interactions implicated in those events, we can better grasp the complex and dynamic molecular mechanisms that facilitate DNA replication and repair. Proximity-dependent biotin identification was used to identify associations with 17 proteins within four core replication components, namely the CDC45/MCM2-7/GINS helicase that unwinds DNA, the DNA polymerases, replication protein A subunits, and histone chaperones needed to disassemble and reassemble chromatin. We further investigated the impact of genotoxic stress on these interactions. This analysis revealed a vast proximity association network with 108 nuclear proteins further modulated in the presence of hydroxyurea; 45 being enriched and 63 depleted. Interestingly, hydroxyurea treatment also caused a redistribution of associations with 11 interactors, meaning that the replisome is dynamically reorganized when stressed. The analysis identified several poorly characterized proteins, thereby uncovering new putative players in the cellular response to DNA replication arrest. It also provides a new comprehensive proteomic framework to understand how cells respond to obstacles during DNA replication.

Abstract
The chromosomal cohesin complex establishes sister chromatid cohesion during S phase, which forms the basis for faithful segregation of DNA replication products during cell divisions. Cohesion establishment is defective in the absence of either of three non-essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae replication fork components Tof1-Csm3 and Mrc1. Here, we investigate how these conserved factors contribute to cohesion establishment. Tof1-Csm3 and Mrc1 serve known roles during DNA replication, including replication checkpoint signaling, securing replication fork speed, as well as recruiting topoisomerase I and the histone chaperone FACT. By modulating each of these functions independently, we rule out that one of these known replication roles explains the contribution of Tof1-Csm3 and Mrc1 to cohesion establishment. Instead, using purified components, we reveal direct and multipronged protein interactions of Tof1-Csm3 and Mrc1 with the cohesin complex. Our findings open the possibility that a series of physical interactions between replication fork components and cohesin facilitate successful establishment of sister chromatid cohesion during DNA replication.

Abstract
Concomitant with DNA replication, the chromosomal cohesin complex establishes cohesion between newly replicated sister chromatids. Cohesion establishment requires acetylation of conserved cohesin lysine residues by Eco1 acetyltransferase. Here, we explore how cohesin acetylation is linked to DNA replication. Biochemical reconstitution of replication-coupled cohesin acetylation reveals that transient DNA structures, which form during DNA replication, control the acetylation reaction. As polymerases complete lagging strand replication, strand displacement synthesis produces DNA flaps that are trimmed to result in nicked double-stranded DNA. Both flaps and nicks stimulate cohesin acetylation, while subsequent nick ligation to complete Okazaki fragment maturation terminates the acetylation reaction. A flapped or nicked DNA substrate constitutes a transient molecular clue that directs cohesin acetylation to a window behind the replication fork, next to where cohesin likely entraps both sister chromatids. Our results provide an explanation for how DNA replication is linked to sister chromatid cohesion establishment.

FACT modulates the conformations of histone H2A and H2B N-terminal tails within nucleosomes. Commun Biol 2022; 5:814.

Abstract
Gene expression is regulated by the modification and accessibility of histone tails within nucleosomes. The histone chaperone FACT (facilitate chromatin transcription), comprising SPT16 and SSRP1, interacts with nucleosomes through partial replacement of DNA with the phosphorylated acidic intrinsically disordered (pAID) segment of SPT16; pAID induces an accessible conformation of the proximal histone H3 N-terminal tail (N-tail) in the unwrapped nucleosome with FACT. Here, we use NMR to probe the histone H2A and H2B tails in the unwrapped nucleosome. Consequently, both the H2A and H2B N-tails on the pAID-proximal side bind to pAID with robust interactions, which are important for nucleosome assembly with FACT. Furthermore, the conformations of these N-tails on the distal DNA-contact site are altered from those in the canonical nucleosome. Our findings highlight that FACT both proximally and distally regulates the conformations of the H2A and H2B N-tails in the asymmetrically unwrapped nucleosome.

Abstract
Nucleosomes are disrupted transiently during eukaryotic transcription, yet the displaced histones must be retained and redeposited onto DNA, to preserve nucleosome density and associated histone modifications. Here, we show that the essential Spt5 processivity factor of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) plays a direct role in this process in budding yeast. Functional orthologues of eukaryotic Spt5 are present in archaea and bacteria, reflecting its universal role in RNA polymerase processivity. However, eukaryotic Spt5 is unique in having an acidic amino terminal tail (Spt5N) that is sandwiched between the downstream nucleosome and the upstream DNA that emerges from Pol II. We show that Spt5N contains a histone-binding motif that is required for viability in yeast cells and prevents loss of nucleosomal histones within actively transcribed regions. These findings indicate that eukaryotic Spt5 combines two essential activities, which together couple processive transcription to the efficient capture and re-deposition of nucleosomal histones.

Abstract
The dysregulation of gene expression is a critical event involved in all steps of tumorigenesis. Aberrant histone and non-histone acetylation modifications of gene expression due to the abnormal activation of histone deacetylases (HDAC) have been reported in hematologic and solid types of cancer. In this sense, the cancer-associated epigenetic alterations are promising targets for anticancer therapy and chemoprevention. HDAC inhibitors (HDACi) induce histone hyperacetylation within target proteins, altering cell cycle and proliferation, cell differentiation, and the regulation of cell death programs. Over the last three decades, an increasing number of synthetic and naturally derived compounds, such as dietary-derived products, have been demonstrated to act as HDACi and have provided biological and molecular insights with regard to the role of HDAC in cancer. The first part of this review is focused on the biological roles of the Zinc-dependent HDAC family in malignant diseases. Accordingly, the small-molecules and natural products such as HDACi are described in terms of cancer therapy and chemoprevention. Furthermore, structural considerations are included to improve the HDACi selectivity and combinatory potential with other specific targeting agents in bifunctional inhibitors and proteolysis targeting chimeras. Additionally, clinical trials that combine HDACi with current therapies are discussed, which may open new avenues in terms of the feasibility of HDACi’s future clinical applications in precision cancer therapies.
