The RecQ helicase Sgs1 plays critical roles during DNA repair by homologous recombination, fromend resection to
Holliday junction (HJ) dissolution. Sgs1 has both pro- and anti-recombinogenic roles, and therefore its activity must
be tightly regulated. However, the controls involved in recruitment and activation of Sgs1 at damaged sites are
unknown. Here we show a two-step role for Smc5/6 in recruiting and activating Sgs1 through SUMOylation. First,
auto-SUMOylation of Smc5/6 subunits leads to recruitment of Sgs1 as part of the STR (Sgs1–Top3–Rmi1) complex,
mediated by two SUMO-interacting motifs (SIMs) on Sgs1 that specifically recognize SUMOylated Smc5/6. Second,
Smc5/6-dependent SUMOylation of Sgs1 and Top3 is required for the efficient function of STR. Sgs1 mutants impaired
in recognition of SUMOylated Smc5/6 (sgs1-SIMΔ) or SUMO-dead alleles (sgs1-KR) exhibit unprocessed HJs
at damaged replication forks, increased crossover frequencies during double-strand break repair, and severe impairment
in DNA end resection. Smc5/6 is a key regulator of Sgs1’s recombination functions.
