Double-strand breaks that are induced postreplication trigger establishment of damage-induced cohesion in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, locally at the break site and genome-wide on undamaged chromosomes. The translesion synthesis polymerase, polymerase η, is required for generation of damage-induced cohesion genome-wide. However, its precise role and regulation in this process is unclear. Here, we investigated the possibility that the cyclin-dependent kinase Cdc28and the acetyltransferase Eco1modulate polymerase η activity. Through in vitrophosphorylation and structure modeling, we showed that polymerase η is an attractive substrate for Cdc28. Mutation of the putative Cdc28-phosphorylation site Ser14 to Ala not only affected polymerase η protein level, but also prevented generation of damage-induced cohesion in vivo. We also demonstrated that Eco1acetylated polymerase η in vitro. Certain nonacetylatable polymerase η mutants showed reduced protein level, deficient nuclear accumulation, and increased ultraviolet irradiation sensitivity. In addition, we found that both Eco1and subunits of the cohesin network are required for cell survival after ultraviolet irradiation. Our findings support functionally important Cdc28-mediated phosphorylation, as well as post-translational modifications of multiple lysine residues that modulate polymerase η activity, and provide new insights into understanding the regulation of polymerase η for damage-induced cohesion. |
