From the National Creative Research Initiative Center for Cell
Cycle Control, Samsung Biomedical Research Institute, Sungkyunkwan
University School of Medicine, 300 Chunchun-Dong, Changan-Ku, Suwon,
Kyunggi-Do, 440-746, Saccharomyces cerevisiae Dna2
possesses both helicase and endonuclease activities. Its endonuclease
activity is essential and well suited to remove RNA-DNA primers of
Okazaki fragments. In contrast, its helicase activity, although
required for optimal growth, is not essential when the rate of cell
growth is reduced. These findings suggest that DNA unwinding activity
of Dna2 plays an auxiliary role in Okazaki fragment processing. To
address this issue, we examined whether the Dna2 helicase activity
influenced its intrinsic endonuclease activity using two mutant
proteins, Dna2D657A and Dna2K1080E, which contain only helicase or
endonuclease activity, respectively. Experiments performed with a
mixture of Dna2D657A and Dna2K1080E enzymes revealed that cleavage of a
single-stranded DNA by endonuclease activity of Dna2 occurs while the
enzyme translocates along the substrate. In addition, DNA unwinding
activity efficiently removed the secondary structure formed in the flap
structure, which was further aided by replication protein A. Our
results suggest that the Dna2 unwinding activity plays a role in
facilitating the removal of the flap DNA by its intrinsic endonuclease activity.
