摘要
To gain insight into the function and organization of proteins assembled on the DNA in response to genotoxic insult we investigated the phosphorylation of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe PCNA-like checkpoint protein Rad(9). C-terminal T412/S423 phosphorylation of Rad9 by Rad3(ATR) occurs in S phase without replication stress. Rad3(ATR) and Tel1(ATM) phosphorylate these same residues, plus additional ones, in response to DNA damage. In S phase and after damage, only Rad9 phosphorylated on T412/S423, but not unphosphorylated Rad9, associates with a two-BRCT-domain region of the essential Rad4(TOPBP1) protein. Rad9-Rad4(TOPBP1) interaction is required to activate the Chk1 damage checkpoint but not the Cds1 replication checkpoint. When the Rad9-T412/S423 are phosphorylated, Rad4(TOPBP1) coprecipitates with Rad3(ATR), suggesting that phosphorylation coordinates formation of an active checkpoint complex.
