Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the 3D-structure of FEN-PCNA-DNA, which plays a key role in okazakisome, the lagging strand replication machine. We also successfully obtained the intermediate state, FEN-Lig-PCNA-DNA complex, in which DNA was being handed over from FEN to Lig. PolD is the genome DNA replicating enzyme and belongs to the family D polymerase. So far, no structure of proteins belonging to this family has been obtained. We studied the structure of PolD and its complex with PCNA and DNA, using cryo-EM single particle analysis. The complex exhibited two distinct forms, which were assigned to DNA polymerizing mode and DNA editing mode. Also, we analyzed the structure of nucleosome complexed with AID segment of FACT. The obtained structure revealed the mechanism of the initial step of nucleosome remodeling by FACT.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
オカザキソームによるラギング鎖の複製は主にポリメラーゼ、FEN、Ligによって3ステップで進行する。これまで唯一構造が未知であったFEN-PCNA-DNAの構造を明らかした。また2個の因子間でDNAが手渡しされることは、塩基除去修復の系で仮説として提唱されていたが、DNA複製の系で実際にその瞬間を捉えたのは初めてである。PolDはPCR等で利用されるPolBと同様に古細菌のDNA複製酵素であり、非常に高い酵素活性をもつ。しかしながら7つのファミリーのうちPolDのファミリーのみこれまで構造的知見が乏しかった。本解析によってPolDの生命科学ツールとしての応用も期待される。
