The role of the S. pombe MRN complex in the removal of
covalently bound protein from the DNA
Edgar HartsuikerKenichi MizunoTony Carr
The Mre11 Rad50 Nbs1 (MRN) complex
Plays a central role in the early response to DNA double strand breaks: sensing, processing and repair
Meiosis as a model system to study MRN function in DSB repair
Scott Keeney, Sloan Kettering Institute
Rad50 has been implicated in DSB formation and Spo11 removal in S.
cerevisiae meiosis
rad50S isolated as a separation of function mutation: strong meiotic phenotype, only slight defect in vegetative cells
meiotic DSB's formed but not repaired in rad50S, Spo11 not removed from the DNA
Which activity is responsible for Spo11 removal?
Role of Rad50 and Rad32 in removal of covalently bound proteins in meiosis:

Rec12 is covalently bound to the DNA in rad50Δ/rad50S meiosis
10 x diluted
S. pombe rad50S is a temperature sensitive separation of function mutation
Defective in removing Rec12 from DSB ends
Proficient in meiotic recombination, meiosis specific chromatinremodeling and linear element formation
Is the Mre11/Rad32 endonuclease acitvityresponsible for the removal of Rec12?
rad32-D25A mutation is defective for nuclease activity, still forms complex
Is rad32-D25A epistatic with rad50S or rad50Δ?Is rad32-D25A defective for Rec12 removal?
rad32 nuclease dead mutant shows reduced spore viability, epistatic with rad50Δ and rad50S

Main conclusions MRN role in meiosis
rad50S is specifically defective in removal of covalently bound Rec12 from the DSB
rad50S is proficient for other Rad50 dependent recombination related functions
Rad32 endonuclease activity is responsible for removal of covalently bound Rec12

Main conclusions
The MRN complex is involved in the removal of Rec12 and probably Topoisomerase I and Topoisomerase II from the DNA
Rad32 endonuclease activity is probably responsible for Rec12/Top1/Top2 removal
