Structure of TSK/BRU1 bound to histone H3.1
Structural highlights
FunctionTONSL_CITUN Histone reader involved in homologous recombination-mediated repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs) at stalled or collapsed replication forks (By similarity). Specifically recognizes and binds histone H3.1 lacking methylation at 'Lys-27' (H3K27me1) (PubMed:35298257).[UniProtKB:Q6Q4D0][1] Publication Abstract from PubMedThe tail of replication-dependent histone H3.1 varies from that of replication-independent H3.3 at the amino acid located at position 31 in plants and animals, but no function has been assigned to this residue to demonstrate a unique and conserved role for H3.1 during replication. We found that TONSOKU (TSK/TONSL), which rescues broken replication forks, specifically interacts with H3.1 via recognition of alanine 31 by its tetratricopeptide repeat domain. Our results indicate that genomic instability in the absence of ATXR5/ATXR6-catalyzed histone H3 lysine 27 monomethylation in plants depends on H3.1, TSK, and DNA polymerase theta (Pol theta). This work reveals an H3.1-specific function during replication and a common strategy used in multicellular eukaryotes for regulating post-replicative chromatin maturation and TSK, which relies on histone monomethyltransferases and reading of the H3.1 variant. The histone H3.1 variant regulates TONSOKU-mediated DNA repair during replication.,Davarinejad H, Huang YC, Mermaz B, LeBlanc C, Poulet A, Thomson G, Joly V, Munoz M, Arvanitis-Vigneault A, Valsakumar D, Villarino G, Ross A, Rotstein BH, Alarcon EI, Brunzelle JS, Voigt P, Dong J, Couture JF, Jacob Y Science. 2022 Mar 18;375(6586):1281-1286. doi: 10.1126/science.abm5320.
