Proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) plays
an essential role in eukaryotic DNA replication, and numerous DNA
replication proteins have been found to interact with PCNA through a
conserved eight-amino acid motif called the PIP-box. We have searched
the genome of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae for open
reading frames that encode proteins with putative PIP-boxes and
initiated testing of 135 novel candidates for their ability to interact with PCNA-conjugated agarose beads. The first new PCNA-binding protein
identified in this manner is the 5' to 3' DNA helicase RRM3. Yeast
two-hybrid tests show that N-terminal deletions of RRM3, which remove
the PIP-box but leave the helicase motifs intact, abolish the
interaction with PCNA. In addition, mutating the two phenylalanine
residues in the PIP-box to alanine or aspartic acid reduces binding to
PCNA, confirming that the PIP-box in RRM3 is responsible for
interaction with PCNA. The results presented here suggest that the RRM3
helicase functions at the replication fork.
