Despite the conservation of core DNA replication proteins, little is known about replication programs in plants. We used flow cytometry and tiling microarrays to profile DNA replication of Arabidopsis thaliana chromosome 4 (chr4) during early, mid, and late S phase. Replication profiles for early and mid S phase were similar and encompassed the majority of the euchromatin. Late S phase exhibited a distinctly different profile that includes the remaining euchromatin and essentially all of the heterochromatin. Termination zones were consistent between experiments, allowing us to define 163 putative replicons on chr4 that clustered into larger domains of predominately early or late replication. Early-replicating sequences, especially the initiation zones of early replicons, displayed a pattern of epigenetic modifications specifying an open chromatin conformation. Late replicons, and the termination zones of early replicons, showed an opposite pattern. Histone H3 acetylated on lysine 56 (H3K56ac) was enriched in early replicons, as well as the initiation zones of both early and late replicons. H3K56ac was also associated with expressed genes, but this effect was local whereas replication time correlated with H3K56ac over broad regions. The similarity of the replication profiles for early and mid S phase cells indicates that replication origin activation in euchromatin is stochastic. Replicon organization in Arabidopsis is strongly influenced by epigenetic modifications to histones and DNA. The domain organization of Arabidopsis is more similar to that in Drosophila than that in mammals, which may reflect genome size and complexity. The distinct patterns of association of H3K56ac with gene expression and early replication provide evidence that H3K56ac may be associated with initiation zones and replication origins.}, number={6}, journal={PLoS Genetics}, publisher={Public Library of Science (PLoS)}, author={Lee, Tae-Jin and Pascuzzi, Pete E. and Settlage, Sharon B. and Shultz, Randall W. and Tanurdzic, Milos and Rabinowicz, Pablo D. and Menges, Margit and Zheng, Ping and Main, Dorrie and Murray, James A.

Geminivirus infection is a model for plant DNA replication and virus/host interactions. Geminiviruses are also used as vectors to induce silencing of endogenous genes in several plant species. A method was analyzed for inoculating geminiviruses using plasmid DNA rubbed onto leaves in the presence of an abrasive (DNA abrasion). Although the use of DNA abrasion to inoculate geminiviruses has been described previously, the technique has fallen out of favor and has not been systematically optimized. However, consistent efficiencies of 100% infection rates can be achieved by DNA abrasion. The symptoms of Tomato Golden Mosaic Virus or Cabbage Leaf Curl Virus infection on Nicotiana benthamiana were similar in timing and appearance to the symptoms observed in plants inoculated using Agrobacterium as the delivery method. More importantly, silencing of an endogenous gene was highly efficient when a geminivirus silencing vector was inoculated by the DNA abrasion method. Other plant species successfully inoculated with geminiviruses by DNA abrasion were Nicotiana tabacum, Capsicum annuum and Nicandra physalodes. Unfortunately, Arabidopsis thaliana could not be infected with Cabbage Leaf Curl Virus using leaf abrasion, demonstrating limitation of the method. However, leaf abrasion to inoculate geminiviruses is an easy and inexpensive method that should be considered as an accessible technique to the growing number of researchers using geminiviruses.}, number={1-2}, journal={JOURNAL OF VIROLOGICAL METHODS}, author={Ascencio-Ibanez, Jose Trinidad and Settlage, Sharon B.}, year={2007}, month={Jun}, pages={198–203} }

Although animal E2F proteins and their target promoters have been studied extensively, little is known about how these factors regulate plant promoters. An earlier study identified two E2F consensus binding sites in the promoter of a Nicotiana benthamiana gene encoding proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and showed that the proximal element (E2F2) is required for the full repression of PCNA expression in mature leaves. In this study, we examined the distal element (E2F1) and how it interacts with the E2F2 site to regulate the PCNA promoter. Gel shift assays using plant nuclear extracts or purified Arabidopsis E2F and DP proteins showed that different complexes bind to the two E2F sites. Mutation of the E2F1 site or both sites differentially altered PCNA promoter function in transgenic plants. As reported previously for the E2F2 mutation, the E2F1 and E2F1+2 mutations partially relieved the repression of the PCNA promoter in mature leaves. In young tissues, the E2F1 mutation resulted in a threefold reduction in PCNA promoter activity, whereas the E2F1+2 mutation had no detectable effect. The activity of E2F1+2 mutants was indistinguishable from that of E2F2 mutants. These results demonstrate that both E2F elements contribute to the repression of the PCNA promoter in mature leaves, whereas the E2F1 site counters the repression activity of the E2F2 element in young leaves.}, number={12}, journal={PLANT CELL}, author={Egelkrout, EM and Mariconti, L and Settlage, SB and Cella, R and Robertson, D and Hanley-Bowdoin, L}, year={2002}, month={Dec}, pages={3225–3236} }

Like most dicot-infecting geminiviruses, tomato golden mosaic virus encodes a protein, AL3 or C3, that greatly enhances viral DNA accumulation through an unknown mechanism. Earlier studies showed that AL3 forms oligomers and interacts with the viral replication initiator AL1. Experiments reported here established that AL3 also interacts with a plant homolog of the mammalian tumor suppressor protein, retinoblastoma (pRb). Analysis of truncated AL3 proteins indicated that pRb and AL1 bind to similar regions of AL3, whereas AL3 oligomerization is dependent on a different region of the protein. Analysis of truncated AL1 proteins located the AL3-binding domain between AL1 amino acids 101 and 180 to a region that also includes the AL1 oligomerization domain and the catalytic site for initiation of viral DNA replication. Interestingly, the AL3-binding domain was fully contiguous with the domain that mediates AL1/pRb interactions. The potential significance of AL3/pRb binding and the coincidence of the domains responsible for AL3, AL1, and pRb interactions are discussed.}, number={2}, journal={VIROLOGY}, author={Settlage, SB and Miller, AB and Gruissem, W and Hanley-Bowdoin, L}, year={2001}, month={Jan}, pages={570–576} }

Viral double-stranded DNA also assembles into minichromosomes and is transcribed in infected cells. Geminiviruses encode only a few proteins for their replication and transcription and rely on host enzymes for these processes. However, most plant cells, which have exited the cell cycle and undergone differentiation, do not contain the replicative enzymes necessary for viral DNA synthesis. To overcome this barrier, geminiviruses induce the accumulation of DNA replication machinery in mature plant cells, most likely by modifying cell cycle and transcriptional controls. In animals, several DNA viruses depend on host replication and transcription machinery and can alter their hosts to create an environment that facilitates efficient viral replication. Analysis of these viruses and their proteins has contributed significantly to our understanding of DNA replication, transcription, and cell cycle regulation in mammalian cells. Geminiviruses have the same potential for plant systems. Plants offer many advantages for these types of studies, including ease of transformation, well-defined cell populations and developmental programs, and greater tolerance of cell cycle perturbation and polyploidy. Our knowledge of the molecular and cellular events that mediate geminivirus infection has increased significantly during recent years. The goal of this review is to summarize recent research addressing geminivirus DNA replication and its integration with transcriptional and cell cycle regulatory processes.}, number={1}, journal={Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences}, author={Hanley-Bowdoin, L. and Settlage, S.

To better characterize the plus-strand origin, we analyzed the capacities of various TGMV common region sequences to support episomal replication in tobacco protoplasts when the viral replication proteins AL1 and AL3 were supplied in trans. These experiments demonstrated that the minimal origin is located in 89-bp common region fragment that includes the known AL1 binding motif and a hairpin structure containing the DNA cleavage site. Analyses of mutant origin sequences identified two additional cis elements--one that is required for origin activity and a second that greatly enhances replication. In contrast, a conserved partial copy of the AL1 binding site did not contribute to origin function. Mutational analysis of the functional AL1 binding site showed that both spacing and sequence of this motif are important for replication in vivo and AL1/DNA binding in vitro. Spacing changes between the AL1 binding site and hairpin also negatively impacted TGMV origin function in a position-dependent manner. Together, these results demonstrated that the organization of TGMV plus-strand origin is complex, involving multiple cis elements that are likely to interact with each other during initiation of replication.}, number={2}, journal={VIROLOGY}, author={Orozco, BM and Gladfelter, HJ and Settlage, SB and Eagle, PA and Gentry, RN and Hanley-Bowdoin, L}, year={1998}, month={Mar}, pages={346–356} }

One viral protein, AL1, contributes to both processes by binding to a directly repeated, double-stranded DNA sequence located in the overlapping (+) strand origin of replication and AL1 promoter. The AL1 protein, which occurs as a multimeric complex in solution, also catalyzes DNA cleavage during initiation of rolling circle replication. To identify the tomato golden mosaic virus AL1 domains that mediate protein oligomerization, DNA binding, and DNA cleavage, a series of truncated AL1 proteins were produced in a baculovirus expression system and assayed for each activity. These experiments localized the AL1 oligomerization domain between amino acids 121 and 181, the DNA binding domain between amino acids 1 and 181, and the DNA cleavage domain between amino acids 1 and 120. Deletion of the first 29 amino acids of AL1 abolished DNA binding and DNA cleavage, demonstrating that an intact N terminus is required for both activities. The observation that the DNA binding domain includes the oligomerization domain suggested that AL1-AL1 protein interaction may be a prerequisite for DNA binding but not for DNA cleavage.
