In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, newly synthesized histones H3 are acetylated on lysine 56 (H3 K56ac) by the Rtt109 acetyltransferase prior to their deposition on nascent DNA behind replication forks. Two deacetylases of the sirtuin family, Hst3 and Hst4, remove H3 K56ac from chromatin after S phase. hst3Δ hst4Δ cells present constitutive H3 K56ac, which sensitizes cells to replicative stress via unclear mechanisms. A chemogenomic screen revealed that DBF4 heterozygosity sensitizes cells to NAM-induced inhibition of sirtuins. DBF4 and CDC7 encode subunits of the Dbf4-dependent kinase (DDK), which activates origins of DNA replication during S phase. We show that (i) cells harboring the dbf4-1 or cdc7-4 hypomorphic alleles are sensitized to NAM, and that (ii) the sirtuins Sir2, Hst1, Hst3, and Hst4 promote DNA replication in cdc7-4 cells. We further demonstrate that Rif1, an inhibitor of DDK-dependent activation of origins, causes DNA damage and replication defects in NAM-treated cells and hst3Δ hst4Δ mutants. cdc7-4 hst3Δ hst4Δ cells are shown to display delayed initiation of DNA replication, which is not due to intra-S checkpoint activation but requires Rtt109-dependent H3 K56ac. Our results suggest that constitutive H3 K56ac sensitizes cells to replicative stress in part by negatively influencing the activation of origins of DNA replication.
