From the The structure-specific recognition protein SSRP1
plays a role in transcription and replication in the chromatin context.
Mediated by its C-terminal high mobility group (HMG) box domain, SSRP1 binds DNA non-sequence specifically but recognizes certain DNA structures. Using acetic acid urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, we have examined the phosphorylation of maize
SSRP1 by protein kinase CK2

. The kinase phosphorylated several amino
acid residues in the C-terminal part of the SSRP1 protein. Two
phosphorylation sites were mapped in the very C-terminal region next to
the HMG box domain, and about seven sites are localized within the
acidic domain. Circular dichroism showed that the phosphorylation of
the two C-terminal sites by CK2
resulted in a structural change in
the region of HMG box domain, because the negative peak of the CD
spectrum at 222 nm was decreased by ~10%. In parallel, the
phosphorylation induced the recognition of UV-damaged DNA, whereas the
non-phosphorylated protein does not discriminate between UV-damaged DNA
and control DNA. The affinity of CK2
-phosphorylated SSRP1 for
the DNA correlates with the degree of UV-induced DNA damage. Moreover,
maize SSRP1 can restore the increased UV-sensitivity of a yeast strain
lacking the NHP6A/B HMG domain proteins to levels of the control
strain. Collectively, these findings indicate a role for SSRP1 in the
UV response of eukaryotic cells.
