효모에서 Hrq1과 Rad14의 상호작용에 대한 연구 = Characterization of Hrq1-Rad14 Interaction in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

국문 초록 (Abstract)

Hrq1은 곰팡이 유전체에서 생물정보분석에 의해 발견된 새로운 RecQ helicase이다. 이 단백질은 인간의 RECQL4와 가장 상동성이 높으며 최근의 유전학적 생화학적 연구를 통해서 유전체 안정성을 유지하는데 어떤 역할을 할 것으로 예상되었다. 본 연구에서는 RECQL4와 상호작용하는 것으로 알려진 인간 유전자들과 상동성이 있는 효모 유전자들이 Hrq1과 상호작용하는지를 yeast two-hybrid assay를 이용하여 조사하였다. 총 11개의 유전자를 조사한 결과, nucleotide excision repair (NER) 인자 중의 하나인 Rad14이 Hrq1과 상호작용하는 것을 발견하였다. 또한 정제한 단백질을 이용한 pull-down assay로 Hrq1과 Rad14 사이의 직접적인 상호작용을 확인하였다. Hrq1과 Rad14 사이의 yeast two-hybrid 상호작용은 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide에 의한 DNA 손상으로 더욱 증가하였으며, 이러한 상호작용의 증가는 또 다른 NER 인자인 Rad4에 의존적이었다. 이러한 결과들은 Hrq1이 Rad14과의 상호작용을 통하여 NER 과정에 어떤 역할을 할 가능성을 제시하고 있다.

Hrq1 is a novel member of RecQ helicase family, found in fungal genomes by bioinformatics analyses. It is most homologous to human RECQL4 and recent genetic and biochemical studies suggested that it may play roles in the maintenance of genome stability. In this study, we investigated yeast two-hybrid interactions between Hrq1 and the yeast genes homologous to the human genes that are known to interact with RECQL4. Among the 11 genes tested, Rad14, a nucleotide excision repair (NER) factor, was found to interact with Hrq1. In addition, pull-down assay with the purified proteins revealed direct protein-protein interaction between Hrq1 and Rad14. The yeast two-hybrid interaction was enhanced by the DNA damage induced by 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, which was dependent on the presence of Rad4, a key NER factor. These results suggest that Hrq1 may function in NER through interaction with Rad14.
