Abstract
Cohesin is key to eukaryotic genome organization and acts throughout the cell cycle in an ATP-dependent manner. The mechanisms underlying cohesin ATPase activity are poorly understood. Here, we characterize distinct steps of the human cohesin ATPase cycle and show that the SMC1A and SMC3 ATPase domains undergo specific but concerted structural rearrangements along this cycle. Specifically, whereas the proximal coiled coil of the SMC1A ATPase domain remains conformationally stable, that of the SMC3 displays an intrinsic flexibility. The ATP-dependent formation of the heterodimeric SMC1A/SMC3 ATPase module (engaged state) favors this flexibility, which is counteracted by NIPBL and DNA binding (clamped state). Opening of the SMC3/RAD21 interface (open-engaged state) stiffens the SMC3 proximal coiled coil, thus constricting together with that of SMC1A the ATPase module DNA-binding chamber. The plasticity of the ATP-dependent interface between the SMC1A and SMC3 ATPase domains enables these structural rearrangements while keeping the ATP gate shut. VIDEO ABSTRACT.
期刊介绍:
Cell Reports publishes high-quality research across the life sciences and focuses on new biological insight as its primary criterion for publication. The journal offers three primary article types: Reports, which are shorter single-point articles, research articles, which are longer and provide deeper mechanistic insights, and resources, which highlight significant technical advances or major informational datasets that contribute to biological advances. Reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields are also accepted.
The Cell Reports Portfolio includes gold open-access journals that cover life, medical, and physical sciences, and its mission is to make cutting-edge research and methodologies available to a wide readership.
The journal's professional in-house editors work closely with authors, reviewers, and the scientific advisory board, which consists of current and future leaders in their respective fields. The advisory board guides the scope, content, and quality of the journal, but editorial decisions are independently made by the in-house scientific editors of Cell Reports.
