???displayArticle.abstract???
The eukaryotic replisome is disassembled in each cell cycle, dependent upon ubiquitylation of the CMG helicase. Studies of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Caenorhabditis elegans and Xenopus laevis have revealed surprising evolutionary diversity in the ubiquitin ligases that control CMG ubiquitylation, but regulated disassembly of the mammalian replisome has yet to be explored. Here, we describe a model system for studying the ubiquitylation and chromatin extraction of the mammalian CMG replisome, based on mouse embryonic stem cells. We show that the ubiquitin ligase CUL2LRR1 is required for ubiquitylation of the CMG-MCM7 subunit during S-phase, leading to disassembly by the p97 ATPase. Moreover, a second pathway of CMG disassembly is activated during mitosis, dependent upon the TRAIP ubiquitin ligase that is mutated in primordial dwarfism and mis-regulated in various cancers. These findings indicate that replisome disassembly in diverse metazoa is regulated by a conserved pair of ubiquitin ligases, distinct from those present in other eukaryotes.

Figure EV1. GINS co‐purifies with a range of replisome components from homozygous TAP‐SLD5 mouse ES cellsCell extracts from mouse ES lines with the indicated genotypes were incubated with IgG beads. The isolated proteins were analysed by immunoblotting in order to monitor the factors that co‐purified with TAP‐SLD5. Note that isolation of the CMG was more effective from homozygous TAP‐SLD5 / TAP‐SLD5 cells than from the equivalent heterozygote
