Figure 5. Smc3 acetylation and DNA replication are not required to abolish Wapl-independent release.

(A) scc3K404E scc2-45 (K24709) and smc3K404 eco1Δ scc2-45 (K25947) strains arrested in G2 at 25°C and subjected to temperature shift to 37°C for 20 min. Ratio of average cohesin levels before and 20 min after the temperature shift is plotted. (B) Strains grown in (A) were analysed by western blotting against the indicated antibodies. (C) scc3K404E (K24697) and scc3K404E scc2-45 (K24738) strains containing 2C Smc1, 2C Smc3 and galactose inducible 2C Scc1NC were arrested in G2 in YEP raffinose and Scc1NC expression induced by addition of galactose. 60 min after galactose addition, glucose was added to the cultures and temperature shifted to 37°C. 0- and 20 min samples were subjected to mini-chromosomeIP (Scc1-PK6) following in vivo cohesin crosslinking with BMOE. (D) 0- and 20 min samples from (C) were subjected to Cal-ChIP-Seq. ratio of average cohesin levels before and temperature shift is plotted. Also see Figure 5—figure supplement 2B. (E) Cdc45 was depleted from wapl−AID cdc45-AID (K27169) and wapl-AID cdc45-AID scc2-45 (K27168) strains like described in Materials and Methods. Following temperature shift, 0- and 20 min samples of the cdc45 depleted strains were subjected to Cal-ChIP-Seq. ratio of average cohesin levels before and temperature shift from −100 kb to +60 KB relative to all 16 centromeres is plotted. Also see Figure 5—figure supplement 2C and D. (F) The percentage of cohesin that remains on DNA upon Scc2 inactivation (after temperature shift) along the entire chromosome four is shown. The median cohesin level along the entire chromosome 4 (dotted line) is marked with arrowheads. Data from SCC2 wild type cells arrested in lateG1 (Figure 2A) is shown in grey. Data from scc2-45 cells arrested in late G1 (Figure 2A) is shown in yellow. Data from Cdc45 depleted scc2-45 cells (Figure 5E) is shown in turquoise. Data from scc2-45 cells arrested in G2 (Figure 2B) is shown in green.

Figure 5—figure supplement 1.

(A) waplΔ eco1Δ (K22698) and waplΔ eco1Δ scc2-45 (K22697) strains carrying 2.3 kb circular mini-chromosome were arrested in G2 and subjected to temperature shift. Mini-chromosome dimers and monomers were separated by sucrose gradient sedimentation and gel electrophoresis and detected by Southern blotting as detailed in Materials and Methods. (B) pds5-AID (K26415) and pds5-AID scc2-45 (K26414) strains were arrested in G1 with α-factor and released into G2 arrest in the presence of auxin (IAA) and subjected to temperature shift and Cal-ChIP-Seq. ratio of average cohesin levels before and temperature shift is plotted. (C) Data from (B) is plotted to show the percentage of cohesin that remains on DNA upon Scc2 inactivation (after temperature shift) along the entire chromosome 4. The median cohesin level along the entire chromosome 4 (dotted line) is marked with arrowheads. (D) pds5-AID scc2-45 (K26414) strain was arrested in G1 with α-factor and released into G2 arrest in the presence or absence of auxin (IAA) and analysed by western blotting with anti-PK and anti-HA antibodies.

Figure 5—figure supplement 2.

(A) scc3K404E (K24697) and scc3K404E scc2-45 (K24738) strains containing 2C Smc1 and 2C Smc3 and galactose inducible 2C Scc1NC were arrested in G2 in YEP raffinose. The culture was split into two, one half incubated at 25°C and the other at 37°C. Scc1 expression induced by addition of galactose. 60 min after galactose addition samples drawn and the pellets were subjected to mini-chromosomeIP (Scc1-PK6). (B) Data from experiment described in Figure 5D is plotted to show the percentage of cohesin that remains on DNA upon Scc2 inactivation (after temperature shift) along the entire chromosome 4. The median cohesin level along the entire chromosome 4 (dotted line) is marked with arrowheads. Strain expressing wapl-AID cdc45-AID scc2-45 (K27169) was arrested in G1 with alpha-factor and released in the presence or absence of auxin and subjected to FACS analysis along with a culture arrested in late G1 (Sic1) and G2.
