Function
[HLTF_HUMAN] Has both helicase and E3 ubiquitin ligase activities. Possesses intrinsic ATP-dependent nucleosome-remodeling activity; This activity may be required for transcriptional activation or repression of specific target promoters (By similarity). These may include the SERPINE1 and HIV-1 promoters and the SV40 enhancer, to which this protein can bind directly. Plays a role in error-free postreplication repair (PRR) of damaged DNA and maintains genomic stability through acting as a ubiquitin ligase for 'Lys-63'-linked polyubiquitination of chromatin-bound PCNA.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
Replication fork regression is a mechanism to rescue a stalled fork by various replication stresses, such as DNA lesions. Helicase-like transcription factor, a SNF2 translocase, plays a central role in the fork regression and its N-terminal domain, HIRAN (HIP116 and Rad5 N-terminal), binds the 3'-hydroxy group of single-stranded DNA. Furthermore, HIRAN is supposed to bind double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and involved in strand separation in the fork regression, whereas structural basis for mechanisms underlying dsDNA binding and strand separation by HIRAN are still unclear. Here, we report the crystal structure of HIRAN bound to duplex DNA. The structure reveals that HIRAN binds the 3'-hydroxy group of DNA and unexpectedly unwinds three nucleobases of the duplex. Phe-142 is involved in the dsDNA binding and the strand separation. In addition, the structure unravels the mechanism underlying sequence-independent recognition for purine bases by HIRAN, where the N-glycosidic bond adopts syn conformation. Our findings indicate direct involvement of HIRAN in the fork regression by separating of the daughter strand from the parental template.
