Crystal structure of Holliday junctions stabilized by 5-methylcytosine in GCC junction coreCrystal structure of Holliday junctions stabilized by 5-methylcytosine in GCC junction core
Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMed5-Hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) is an epigenetic marker that has recently been shown to promote homologous recombination (HR). In this study, we determine the effects of 5hmC on the structure, thermodynamics, and conformational dynamics of the Holliday junction (the four-stranded DNA intermediate associated with HR) in its native stacked-X form. The hydroxymethyl and the control methyl substituents are placed in the context of an amphimorphic GxCC trinucleotide core sequence (where xC is C, 5hmC, or the methylated 5mC), which is part of a sequence also recognized to promote HR. The hydroxymethyl group of the 5hmC junction adopts two distinct rotational conformations, with an in-base-plane form being dominant over the competing out-of-plane rotamer that has typically been seen in duplex structures. The in-plane rotamer is seen to be stabilized by a more stable intramolecular hydrogen bond to the junction backbone. Stabilizing hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) formed by the hydroxyl-substituent in the 5hmC or from a bridging water in the 5mC structure provide approximately 1.5 to 2 kcal/mol per interaction of stability to the junction, which is mostly offset by entropy compensation, thereby leaving the overall stability of the G5hmCC constructs similar to the GCC core. Thus, both methyl and hydroxymethyl modifications are accommodated without disrupting the structure or stability of the Holliday junction. Both 5hmC and 5mC are shown to open up the structure to make the junction core more accessible. The overall consequences of incorporating 5hmC into a DNA junction are thus discussed in the context of the specificity in protein recognition of the hydroxymethyl substituent through direct and indirect readout mechanisms.
