Condensins play a key role in higher order chromosome organization. In budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae , a condensin complex consists of five subunits: two conserved structural maintenance of chromosome subunits, Smc2 and Smc4, a kleisin Brn1, and two HEAT repeat subunits, Ycg1, which possesses a DNA binding activity, and Ycs4, which can transiently associate with Smc4 and thereby disrupt its association with the Smc2 head. We characterized here DNA binding activity of the non-SMC subunits using an agnostic, model-independent approach. To this end, we mapped the DNA interface of the complex using sulfo-NHS biotin labeling. Besides the known site on Ycg1, we found a patch of lysines at the C-terminal domain of Ycs4 that were protected from biotinylation in the presence of DNA. Point mutations at the predicted protein-DNA interface reduced both Ycs4 binding to DNA and the DNA stimulated ATPase activity of the reconstituted condensin, whereas overproduction of the mutant Ycs4 was detrimental for yeast viability. Notably, the DNA binding site on Ycs4 partially overlapped with its interface with SMC4, revealing an intricate interplay between DNA binding, engagement of the Smc2-Smc4 heads, and ATP hydrolysis and suggesting a mechanism for ATP-modulated loading and translocation of condensins on DNA. |
