Abstract

F-box proteins are the substrate binding subunits of SCF (Skp1-Cul1-F-box protein) ubiquitin ligase complexes. Using affinity purifications and mass spectrometry, we identified RRM2 (the ribonucleotide reductase family member 2) as an interactor of the F-box protein cyclin F. Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyzes the conversion of ribonucleotides to deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs), which are necessary for both replicative and repair DNA synthesis. We found that, during G2, following CDK-mediated phosphorylation of Thr33, RRM2 is degraded via SCF(cyclin F) to maintain balanced dNTP pools and genome stability. After DNA damage, cyclin F is downregulated in an ATR-dependent manner to allow accumulation of RRM2. Defective elimination of cyclin F delays DNA repair and sensitizes cells to DNA damage, a phenotype that is reverted by expressing a nondegradable RRM2 mutant VSports手机版. In summary, we have identified a biochemical pathway that controls the abundance of dNTPs and ensures efficient DNA repair in response to genotoxic stress. .

A) RPE1-hTERT cells were synchronized in G0/G1 by 72 hours of serum starvation before release into fresh medium containing serum. Cells were collected at the indicated time points after serum re-addition (SR), lysed, and immunoblotted as indicated. B) HEK-293T cells were transfected with an empty vector (EV) or the indicated FLAG-tagged F-box protein constructs (FBPs). Whole cell extracts were immunoprecipitated (IP) with anti-FLAG resin, and immunoprecipitates were immunoblotted as indicated. C) HeLa cells were synchronized at G1/S using a double-thymidine block before release into fresh medium. Cell lysates were generated at the indicated time points, immunoprecipitated with an antibody to Cyclin F, and immunoblotted as indicated. Ten percent of the material used for immunoprecipitation (input) is shown on the right panels. D) U-2OS cells were synchronized at G1/S using a double-thymidine block before release into fresh medium. Cells were fixed at five hours (S-phase) and nine hours (G2-phase) after release from the block and stained with an antibody to Cyclin F (green) or RRM2 (red). Where indicated, cells where pretreated for two hours with Leptomycin B (LMB) before fixation. Confocal microscopy was used to visualize stained cells.

C) HeLa cells were treated as in (A), except that the indicated doses of UV were used. A colony formation assay was performed 10 days after treatment. Each data point represents the mean ± S.D. of three separate experiments. D) HeLa cells pre-infected with either pBabe HA-tagged RRM2 or pBabe HA-tagged RRM2(RxI/AxA) were infected as described in (A), and exposed to the indicated UV doses. A colony formation assay was performed 10 days after treatment. Each data point represents the mean ± S.D. of three separate experiments. E) A model of the regulation of DNA replication and repair by the Cyclin F-RRM2 axis. During G2, after the last majority of DNA replication has occurred, Cyclin F accumulates, thereby promoting RRM2 degradation in collaboration with a G2 CDK. DNA damage induces a ATR-dependent downregulation of Cyclin F to allow accumulation of RRM2 for efficient DNA repair. (See also Figure S7)
