Abstract
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) functions in the pyrimidine salvage pathway for DNA and RNA syntheses and has been shown to protect cancer cells from deoxycytidine-based chemotherapies. In this study, we observed that CDA was overexpressed in pancreatic adenocarcinoma from patients at baseline and was essential for experimental tumor growth. Mechanistic investigations revealed that CDA localized to replication forks where it increased replication speed, improved replication fork restart efficiency, reduced endogenous replication stress, minimized DNA breaks, and regulated genetic stability during DNA replication. In cellular pancreatic cancer models, high CDA expression correlated with resistance to DNA-damaging agents. Silencing CDA in patient-derived primary cultures in vitro and in orthotopic xenografts in vivo increased replication stress and sensitized pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells to oxaliplatin. This study sheds light on the role of CDA in pancreatic adenocarcinoma, offering insights into how this tumor type modulates replication stress. These findings suggest that CDA expression could potentially predict therapeutic efficacy and that targeting CDA induces intolerable levels of replication stress in cancer cells, particularly when combined with DNA-targeted therapies. SIGNIFICANCE Cytidine deaminase reduces replication stress and regulates DNA replication to confer resistance to DNA-damaging drugs in pancreatic cancer, unveiling a molecular vulnerability that could enhance treatment response.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by an abnormal clonal proliferation of malignant plasma cells. Despite the introduction of novel agents that have significantly improved clinical outcome, most patients relapse and develop drug resistance. MM is characterized by genomic instability and a high level of replicative stress. In response to replicative and DNA damage stress, MM cells activate various DNA damage signaling pathways. In this study, we reported that high CHK1 and WEE1 expression is associated with poor outcome in independent cohorts of MM patients treated with high dose melphalan chemotherapy or anti-CD38 immunotherapy. Combined targeting of Chk1 and Wee1 demonstrates synergistic toxicities on MM cells and was associated with higher DNA double-strand break induction, as evidenced by an increased percentage of γH2AX positive cells subsequently leading to apoptosis. The therapeutic interest of Chk1/Wee1 inhibitors' combination was validated on primary MM cells of patients. The toxicity was specific of MM cells since normal bone marrow cells were not significantly affected. Using deconvolution approach, MM patients with high CHK1 expression exhibited a significant lower percentage of NK cells whereas patients with high WEE1 expression displayed a significant higher percentage of regulatory T cells in the bone marrow. These data emphasize that MM cell adaptation to replicative stress through Wee1 and Chk1 upregulation may decrease the activation of the cell-intrinsic innate immune response. Our study suggests that association of Chk1 and Wee1 inhibitors may represent a promising therapeutic approach in high-risk MM patients characterized by high CHK1 and WEE1 expression.

Abstract
The exonuclease domain of DNA polymerases epsilon's catalytic subunit (POLE) removes misincorporated nucleotides, called proofreading. POLE-exonuclease mutations cause colorectal- and endometrial cancers with an extreme burden of single nucleotide substitutions. We recently reported that particularly the hereditary POLE exonuclease mutation N363K predisposes in addition to aggressive giant cell glioblastomas. We knocked-in this mutation homozygously into human cell lines and compared its properties to knock-ins of the likewise hereditary POLE L424V mutation and to a complete proofreading-inactivating mutation (exo-null). We found that N363K cells have higher mutation rates as both L424V- or exo-null mutant cells. In contrast to L424V cells, N363K cells expose a growth defect, replication stress and DNA damage. In non-transformed cells, these burdens lead to aneuploidy but macroscopically normal nuclei. In contrast, transformed N363K cells phenocopy the enlarged and disorganized nuclei of giant cell glioblastomas. Taken together, our data characterize a POLE exonuclease domain mutant that not only causes single nucleotide hypermutation, but in addition DNA damage and chromosome instability, leading to an extended tumor spectrum. Our results expand the understanding of the polymerase exonuclease domain and suggest that an assessment of both the mutational potential and the genetic instability might refine classification and treatment of POLE-mutated tumors.

Abstract
Abstract
Cytidine deaminase (CDA) converts cytidine and deoxycytidine into uridine and deoxyuridine within the pyrimidine salvage pathway for DNA and RNA synthesis. In this regard, loss of CDA provokes genomic instability in Bloom Syndrome, and CDA overexpression is associated with tumor resistance to chemotherapy with pyrimidine analogs. However, the precise role of CDA per se in cancer has been totally underexplored so far. Patient cohort analysis demonstrate that CDA is overexpressed in PDAC, a disease with no cure with increasing incidence, and associated with a worse prognosis in patient. Functional studies demonstrate that CDA is essential to PDAC cell proliferation and tumor growth. We found that CDA expression is associated with gene set enrichment in DNA replication signature, in both PDAC tumors and experimental models. Using enforced expression, genetic or pharmacologic targeting, we demonstrate that CDA promotes DNA replication, localizes to the replication fork and increases replication fork fitness. These effects are strictly dependent on CDA deaminase activity. Hence, we found that CDA controls replication stress as CDA expression is inversely correlated with the level of DNA breaks during S-phase, and that CDA targeting is associated with gene set enrichment in replication stress signature and CHK1 protein activation. Next, we demonstrate that CDA preserves genomic stability of PDAC cells, as CDA expression is inversely correlated with micronuclei formation and DNA damage transfer to daughter cells. We next explored PDAC cell lines from the Cancer Cell Lines Encyclopedia and found that CDA expression is associated with resistance to drug targeting DNA synthesis. Functional studies demonstrate that overexpressing CDA, and not CDA catalytically inactive mutant, protects PDAC cell lines from camptothecin, a topoisomerase inhibitor, while targeting CDA sensitizes PDAC cells to treatment by camptothecin and oxaliplatin, that forms platinum-DNA adducts. To gain further insights into the clinical potential of such finding, we targeted CDA expression in primary cells from patient with PDAC and found that CDA is essential to primary cell growth, and that CDA targeting sensitizes primary cells to treatment by oxaliplatin. Taken together, our results reveal for the first time that CDA controls DNA replication, replication stress level and genomic stability of PDAC cells, and that this new role of CDA is involved in tumor resistance to drugs inducing DNA damages. Thus, our work stems for new strategies based on CDA targeting to defeat PDAC resistance to treatment.

Abstract
Hematopoiesis is particularly sensitive to DNA damage. Myeloid tumor incidence increases in patients with DNA repair defects and after chemotherapy. It is not known why hematopoietic cells are highly vulnerable to DNA damage. Addressing this question is complicated by the paucity of mouse models of hematopoietic malignancies due to defective DNA repair. We show that DNA repair-deficient Mcm8- and Mcm9-knockout mice develop myeloid tumors, phenocopying prevalent myelodysplastic syndromes. We demonstrate that these tumors are preceded by a lifelong DNA damage burden in bone marrow and that they acquire proliferative capacity by suppressing signaling of the tumor suppressor and cell cycle controller RB, as often seen in patients. Finally, we found that absence of MCM9 and the tumor suppressor Tp53 switches tumorigenesis to lymphoid tumors without precedent myeloid malignancy. Our results demonstrate that MCM8/9 deficiency drives myeloid tumor development and establishes a DNA damage burdened mouse model for hematopoietic malignancies.

Abstract
We generated knockout mice for MCM8 and MCM9 and show that deficiency for these genes impairs homologous recombination (HR)-mediated DNA repair during gametogenesis and somatic cells cycles. MCM8(-/-) mice are sterile because spermatocytes are blocked in meiotic prophase I, and females have only arrested primary follicles and frequently develop ovarian tumors. MCM9(-/-) females also are sterile as ovaries are completely devoid of oocytes. In contrast, MCM9(-/-) testes produce spermatozoa, albeit in much reduced quantity. Mcm8(-/-) and Mcm9(-/-) embryonic fibroblasts show growth defects and chromosomal damage and cannot overcome a transient inhibition of replication fork progression. In these cells, chromatin recruitment of HR factors like Rad51 and RPA is impaired and HR strongly reduced. We further demonstrate that MCM8 and MCM9 form a complex and that they coregulate their stability. Our work uncovers essential functions of MCM8 and MCM9 in HR-mediated DSB repair during gametogenesis, replication fork maintenance, and DNA repair.

Abstract
In all eukaryotes, the heterohexameric MCM2-7 complex functions as the main replicative helicase during S phase. During early G1 phase, it is recruited onto chromatin in a sequence of reactions called pre-replication complex (pre-RC) formation or DNA licensing. This process is ATP-dependent and at least two different chromatin-bound ATPase activities are required besides several others essential, but not enzymatically active, proteins. Although functionally conserved during evolution, pre-RC formation and the way the MCM2-7 helicase is loaded onto DNA are more complex in metazoans than in single-cell eukaryotes. Recently, we characterized a new essential factor for pre-RC assembly and DNA licensing, the vertebrate-specific MCM9 protein that contains not only an ATPase but also a helicase domain. MCM9 adds another layer of complexity to how vertebrates achieve and regulate the loading of the MCM2-7 helicase and DNA replication.

Abstract
Prereplication complexes (pre-RCs) define potential origins of DNA replication and allow the recruitment of the replicative DNA helicase MCM2-7. Here, we characterize MCM9, a member of the MCM2-8 family. We demonstrate that MCM9 binds to chromatin in an ORC-dependent manner and is required for the recruitment of the MCM2-7 helicase onto chromatin. Its depletion leads to a block in pre-RC assembly, as well as DNA replication inhibition. We show that MCM9 forms a stable complex with the licensing factor Cdt1, preventing an excess of geminin on chromatin during the licensing reaction. Our data suggest that MCM9 is an essential activating linker between Cdt1 and the MCM2-7 complex, required for loading the MCM2-7 helicase onto DNA replication origins. Thus, Cdt1, with its two opposing regulatory binding factors MCM9 and geminin, appears to be a major platform on the pre-RC to integrate cell-cycle signals.

Abstract
The transport receptor Mex67-Mtr2 functions in mRNA export, and also by a loop-confined surface on the heterodimer binds to and exports pre-60S particles. We show that Mex67-Mtr2 through the same surface that recruits pre-60S particles interacts with the Nup84 complex, a structural module of the nuclear pore complex devoid of Phe-Gly domains. In vitro, pre-60S particles and the Nup84 complex compete for an overlapping binding site on the loop-extended Mex67-Mtr2 surface. Chemical crosslinking identified Nup85 as the subunit in the Nup84 complex that directly binds to the Mex67 loop. Genetic studies revealed that this interaction is crucial for mRNA export. Notably, pre-60S subunit export impaired by mutating Mtr2 or the 60S adaptor Nmd3 could be partially restored by second-site mutation in Nup85 that caused dissociation of Mex67-Mtr2 from the Nup84 complex. Thus, the Mex67-Mtr2 export receptor employs a versatile binding platform on its surface that could create a crosstalk between mRNA and ribosome export pathways.

Abstract
Initiation of DNA synthesis involves the loading of the MCM2-7 helicase onto chromatin by Cdt1 (origin licensing). Geminin is thought to prevent relicensing by binding and inhibiting Cdt1. Here we show, using Xenopus egg extracts, that geminin binding to Cdt1 is not sufficient to block its activity and that a Cdt1-geminin complex licenses chromatin, but prevents rereplication, working as a molecular switch at replication origins. We demonstrate that geminin is recruited to chromatin already during licensing, while bulk geminin is recruited at the onset of S phase. A recombinant Cdt1-geminin complex binds chromatin, interacts with the MCM2-7 complex and licenses chromatin once per cell cycle. Accordingly, while recombinant Cdt1 induces rereplication in G1 or G2 and activates an ATM/ATR-dependent checkpoint, the Cdt1-geminin complex does not. We further demonstrate that the stoichiometry of the Cdt1-geminin complex regulates its activity. Our results suggest a model in which the MCM2-7 helicase is loaded onto chromatin by a Cdt1-geminin complex, which is inactivated upon origin firing by binding additional geminin. This origin inactivation reaction does not occur if only free Cdt1 is present on chromatin.

Abstract
The origin-recognition complex (ORC) has an essential role in defining DNA replication origins and in chromosome segregation. Recent studies in Drosophila orc2 mutants, and in human cells depleted of ORC2, have suggested that this factor is also implicated in mitotic chromosome assembly. We asked whether ORC was required for M phase chromosome assembly independently of its function in DNA replication. We performed depletion assays and reconstitution experiments in Xenopus egg extracts, in conditions of M phase chromosome assembly coupled or uncoupled from DNA replication. We show that, although ORC is dispensable for mitotic chromosome condensation, it is necessary at the interphase-mitosis transition for proper mitotic chromosome assembly to occur in a reaction not strictly dependent on DNA replication. This function involves the recruitment to chromatin of cdc2 kinase and the chromatin disassembly of interphasic replication protein A (RPA) foci. Furthermore, we show that mutations of RPA at the cdc2 kinase site prevents RPA dissociation from chromatin and impairs mitotic chromosome assembly without affecting DNA replication. Our results support the conclusion that in addition to its role in the assembly of prereplication complexes (pre-RCs), at the G1-S transition, ORC is also required for their disassembly at mitotic entry.

Abstract
The MCM proteins identify a group of ten conserved factors functioning in the replication of the genomes of archae and eukaryotic organisms. Among these, MCM2-7 proteins are related to each other and form a family of DNA helicases implicated at the initiation step of DNA synthesis. Recently this family expanded by the identification of two additional members that appear to be present only in multicellular organisms, MCM8 and MCM9. The function of MCM8 is distinct from that of MCM2-7 proteins, while the function of MCM9 is unknown. MCM1 and MCM10 are not related to this family, nor to each other, but also function in DNA synthesis.

Abstract
MCM2-7 proteins are conserved replication factors functioning as DNA helicases during DNA synthesis. MCM8 is another member of this family, which appears to be specific for higher eukaryotes, as it is absent in worms and yeast. Here we report the complete identification of a novel member of this family, the MCM9 protein. Like MCM8, MCM9 is only present in the genome of higher eukaryotes. This protein contains an MCM8-like ATP binding and hydrolysis motif implicated in helicase activity. Strikingly, MCM9 also contains a unique carboxy-terminal domain which has only weak homology to MCM2-7 and MCM8 but is conserved within MCM9 homologs. We also show that the very recently reported human MCM9 protein (HsMCM9), which resembles a truncated MCM-like protein missing a part of the MCM2-7 signature domain, is an incomplete form of the full length HsMCM9 described here. Searching the human genome with either the newly identified human MCM9 or other MCM protein sequences, we did not detect further additional members of this DNA helicase family and suggest that it is constituted of eight members, falling into two different groups, one constituted by the MCM2-7 complex and the other by MCM8 and MCM9, which are present only in higher eukaryotes.

Abstract
About 30 different nucleoporins (Nups) constitute the nuclear pore complex. We have affinity-purified 28 of these nuclear pore proteins and identified new nucleoporin interactions by this analysis. We found that Nup157 and Nup170, two members of the large structural Nups, and the Gly-Leu-Phe-Gly nucleoporin Nup145N specifically co-purified with members of the Nup84 complex. In addition, Nup145N co-enriched during Nup157 purification. By in vitro reconstitution, we demonstrate that Nup157 and Nup145N form a nucleoporin subcomplex. Moreover, we show that Nup157 and Nup145N bind to the heptameric Nup84 complex. This assembly thus represents approximately one-third of all nucleoporins. To characterize Nup157 structurally, we purified and analyzed it by electron microscopy. Nup157 is a hollow sphere that resembles a clamp or a gripping hand. Thus, we could reconstitute an interaction between a large structural Nup, an FG repeat Nup, and a major structural module of the nuclear pore complex.

Abstract
A crucial regulation for maintaining genome integrity in eukaryotes is to limit DNA replication in S phase to only one round. Several models have been proposed; one of which, the licensing model, predicted that formation of the nuclear membrane restricts access to chromatin to a positive replication factor. Cdt1, a factor binding to origins and recruiting the MCM2-7 helicase, has been identified as a component of the licensing system in Xenopus and other eukaryotes. Nevertheless, evidence is missing demonstrating a direct role for unscheduled Cdt1 expression in promoting illegitimate reinitiation of DNA synthesis. We show here that Xenopus Cdt1 is absent in G2 nuclei, suggesting that it might be either degraded or exported. Recombinant Cdt1, added to egg extracts in G2, crosses the nuclear membrane, binds to chromatin, and relicenses the chromosome for new rounds of DNA synthesis in combination with chromatin bound Cdc6. The mechanism involves rebinding of MCM3 to chromatin. Reinitiation is blocked by geminin only in G2 and is not stimulated by Cdc6, demonstrating that Cdt1, but not Cdc6, is limiting for reinitiation in egg extracts. These results suggest that removal of Cdt1 from chromatin and its nuclear exclusion in G2 is critical in regulating licensing and that override of this control is sufficient to promote illegitimate firing of origins.

Abstract
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) gates the only known conduit for molecular exchange between the nucleus and cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Macromolecular transport across the NPC is mediated by nucleocytoplasmic shuttling receptors termed karyopherins (Kaps). Kaps interact with NPC proteins (nucleoporins) that contain FG peptide repeats (FG Nups) and altogether carry hundreds of different cargoes across the NPC. Previously we described a biochemical strategy to identify proteins that interact with individual components of the nucleocytoplasmic transport machinery. We used bacterially expressed fusions of glutathione S-transferase with nucleoporins or karyopherins as bait to capture interacting proteins from yeast extracts. Forty-five distinct proteins were identified as binding to one or several FG Nups and Kaps. Most of the detected interactions were expected, such as Kap-Nup interactions, but others were unexpected, such as the interactions of the multisubunit Nup84p complex with several of the FG Nups. Also unexpected were the interactions of various FG Nups with the nucleoporins Nup2p and Nup133p, the Gsp1p-GTPase-activating protein Rna1p, and the mRNA-binding protein Pab1p. Here we resolve how these interactions occur. We show that Pab1p associates nonspecifically with immobilized baits via RNA. More interestingly, we demonstrate that the Nup84p complex contains Nup133p as a subunit and binds to the FG repeat regions of Nups directly via the Nup85p subunit. Binding of Nup85p to the GLFG region of Nup116p was quantified in vitro (K(D) = 1.5 micro M) and was confirmed in vivo using the yeast two-hybrid assay. We also demonstrate that Nup2p and Rna1p can be tethered directly to FG Nups via the importin Kap95p-Kap60p and the exportin Crm1p, respectively. We discuss possible roles of these novel interactions in the mechanisms of nucleocytoplasmic transport.

Abstract
Now that it is likely that all yeast nucleoporins are known, one of the ultimate goals is the in vitro assembly of the entire nuclear pore complex from its approximately 30 individual components. Here, we report the reconstitution of seven proteins (Nup133p, Nup145p-C, Nup120p, Nup85p, Nup84p, Seh1p and Sec13p) into a heptameric 0.5 MDa nuclear pore subcomplex. We found that double plasmid transformation combined with bi-cistronic mRNA translation allow the expression and assembly of distinct subcomplexes of up to five nucleoporins in a single Escherichia coli cell. During the sequential reconstitution of the Nup84p complex, smaller assembly intermediates can be isolated, which exhibit modular structures determined by electron microscopy that finally make up the whole Y-shaped Nup84p complex. Importantly, a seventh subunit, Nup133p, was incorporated into the complex through its interaction with Nup84p, thereby elongating one arm of the Y-shaped assembly to an approximately 40 nm long stalk. Taken together, our data document that the Nup84p-Nup133p complex self-assembles in a modular concept from distinct smaller nucleoporin construction sets.

Abstract
The Nup84p complex consists of five nucleoporins (Nup84p, Nup85p, Nup120p, Nup145p-C, and Seh1p) and Sec13p, a bona fide subunit of the COPII coat complex. We show that a pool of green fluorescent protein-tagged Sec13p localizes to the nuclear pores in vivo, and identify sec13 mutant alleles that are synthetically lethal with nup85Delta and affect the localization of a green fluorescent protein-Nup49p reporter protein. In the electron microscope, sec13 mutants exhibit structural defects in nuclear pore complex (NPC) and nuclear envelope organization. For the assembly of the complex, Nup85p, Nup120p, and Nup145p-C are essential. A highly purified Nup84p complex was isolated from yeast under native conditions and its molecular mass was determined to be 375 kD by quantitative scanning transmission electron microscopy and analytical ultracentrifugation, consistent with a monomeric complex. Furthermore, the Nup84p complex exhibits a Y-shaped, triskelion-like morphology 25 nm in diameter in the transmission electron microscope. Thus, the Nup84p complex constitutes a paradigm of an NPC structural module with distinct composition, structure, and a role in nuclear mRNA export and NPC bio- genesis.
