Function
[TOPB1_HUMAN] Required for DNA replication. Plays a role in the rescue of stalled replication forks and checkpoint control. Binds double-stranded DNA breaks and nicks as well as single-stranded DNA. Recruits the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex to E2F1-responsive promoters. Down-regulates E2F1 activity and inhibits E2F1-dependent apoptosis during G1/S transition and after DNA damage. Induces a large increase in the kinase activity of ATR.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Human DNA Topoisomerase IIbeta binding protein 1 (TopBP1) is a modulating protein that plays an essential role in the response to DNA damage. The N-terminal region of TopBP1, which contains predicted BRCA1-carboxy terminal (BRCT) domains 1 and 2, binds to Rad9, a component of the cell cycle checkpoint clamp Rad9-Hus1-Rad1 complex. Here, we report the crystal structure of the TopBP1N-terminal region (residues 1-290) at 2.4A resolution. Interestingly, in addition to the predicted tandem BRCT1-2 repeats (residues 103-284), residues 7-98 form a previously unreported BRCT domain (here, BRCT0). In contrast to both BRCT1 and BRCT2, which possess the conventional phosphopeptide binding residues within a surface pocket, the corresponding pocket in BRCT0 is largely hydrophobic. Structural comparisons together with peptide binding studies indicate that the tandem BRCT1-2 domains are the binding region for phosphorylated Ser387 in Rad9.
