Transcription profiling of human Cockayne Syndrome CS-B cells exposed to UV irradiation

ABSTRACT: Cockayne syndrome B (CSB) protein is a member of the SWI/SNF family and has DNA-dependent ATPase and ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling activities. The CSB protein is missing or altered in CS-B cells. CS-B cells are hypersensitive to UV light and defective in transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR). TCR efficiently removes a variety of lesions from the transcribed strand of active genes. It has been shown that lesions specifically in the transcribed strand of active genes trigger the induction of apoptosis following UV irradiation. Several DNA damage signaling cascades, including the ATR/Chk1, p38 kinase, p53, and jun N-terminal kinase pathways are activated following UV irradiation. However, the role of TCR in cellular global transcriptional responses to UV irradiation remains to be elucidated. Using oligonucleotide microarray technology, we analyzed the time course of responses of CS-B cells (CS-B) and CS-B cells complemented with wild-type CSB cDNA (CS-B wt). Experiment Overall Design: In order to investigate the global transcriptional responses to UV damage in TCR-proficient or TCR-deficient cells, CS-B wt and CS-B cells were irradiated with 10 J/m2 of UV light and incubated for 2 or 12 hours. All experiments were performed in triplicate.

Posttranslational modifications regulate cellular responses upon UV-induced DNA damage

Project description:SUMOylation is a posttranslational protein modification which is characterized by the covalent attachment of a small 11kDa protein, called Small Ubiquitin-like MOdifier (SUMO). SUMOylation plays a pivotal role in a multitude of cellular pathways including cellular responses upon DNA damage. Here, we identified multiple proteins which are SUMOylated in U2OS cells in response to ultraviolet light (UV) irradiation and ionizing radiation (IR). We show that the SUMOylation response upon UV irradiation was more pronounced compared to the response upon IR. The major SUMOylation target upon UV-irradiation was the transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) protein, Cockayne Syndrome B (CSB). This protein plays an important role in the repair of UV-induced lesions in actively transcribed genes. In a second proteomic approach we identified SUMOylation-dependent and independent protein interactors of the N-terminus of CSB. Here, we uncovered that the affinity of multiple RNA polymerase-associated proteins towards CSB is influenced by SUMOylation. Finally, we set out to identify ubiquitination events upon UV-irradiation which are influenced by the CSA-ubiquitin ligase complex, which is also involved in TC-NER and is closely connected to CSB, because mutations in either CSA or CSB result in the same phenotype, Cockayne syndrome. We found that RPB1, the major subunit of RNA polymerase II, was ubiquitinated in a CSA-dependent manner upon UV which finally led to its degradation.

Structural basis of human transcription-DNA repair coupling

Project description:Transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR) efficiently removes bulky DNA lesions from transcribed parts of the genome and constitutes a major defence against DNA damage by UV irradiation. TCR begins when RNA polymerase II (Pol II) stalls at a DNA lesion and recruits the Cockayne syndrome protein CsB, the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex CRL4CsA, and the UV-stimulated scaffold protein A (UVSSA). Here we provide five high-resolution structures of Pol II transcription complexes with bound TCR factors and complementary biochemical data. Together with published work, our results converge on a model for the molecular mechanism of transcription-DNA repair coupling. In this model, Pol II stalling triggers the formation of an alternative transcription elongation complex that we call ECact. In ECact, CsB has replaced the elongation factor DSIF, binds the PAF1 complex, and repositions upstream DNA such that it contacts the elongation factor SPT6. The CsB translocase now pulls on the upstream DNA template, thereby pushing Pol II forward. If the lesion cannot be bypassed, Pol II gets stably stalled. CRL4CsA spans over the Pol II clamp to reach the Pol II jaw and direct ubiquitination of RPB1 residue lysine-1268. This triggers the recruitment of TFIIH to UVSSA, which is located at downstream DNA, and enables nucleotide excision repair. Finally, large-scale conformational changes in CRL4CsA enable ubiquitination of CsB and the release of TCR factors, thereby allowing Pol II to resume elongation and continue transcription over repaired DNA.

A CSB-PAF1 axis activates RNA polymerase II from promoter-proximal sites and restores efficient transcription elongation after DNA damage repair

Project description:The coordinated transcription of genes involves RNA polymerase II enzymes (RNAPII), which pull DNA through their active sites. DNA lesions in transcribed strands block RNAPII elongation and induce a strong transcriptional arrest. The transcription-coupled repair (TCR) pathway ensures the efficient removal of transcription-blocking DNA lesions, but this is not sufficient to overcome this arrest and resume transcription. Through proteomics screens, we find that the TCR-specific CSB protein loads the evolutionary conserved PAF1 complex (PAF1C) onto RNAPII in promoter-proximal regions specifically in response to DNA damage. PAF1C is dispensable for TCR-mediated repair,but is essential to resume RNA synthesis after UV irradiation, suggesting an unexpected uncoupling between DNA repair and transcription restart. Moreover, we find that PAF1C promotes RNAPII pause release in promoter-proximal regions and subsequently acts as a processivity factor that stimulates transcription elongation waves throughout genes. Our findings expose the molecular basis for a non-canonical PAF1C-dependent pathway that restores transcription throughout the human genome after genotoxic stress.

Cockayne syndrome group A and ferrochelatase finely tune ribosomal gene transcription and its response to UV irradiation

Project description:CSA and CSB proteins are key players in transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) pathway that removes UV-induced DNA lesions from the transcribed strands of expressed genes. Additionally, CS proteins play relevant but still elusive roles in other cellular pathways whose alteration may explain neurodegeneration and progeroid features in Cockayne syndrome (CS). Here we identify a CSA-dependent chromatin-associated protein complex that modulates rRNA transcription. Besides RNA polymerase I (RNAP1) and specific ribosomal proteins (RPs), the CSA complex includes ferrochelatase (FECH), a well-known mitochondrial enzyme whose deficiency causes erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP). Impairment of either CSA or FECH functionality leads to reduced RNAP1 occupancy on rDNA promoter that is associated to reduced transcription when CSA is affected and abnormal ribosomal transcript accumulation after FECH silencing. Accordingly, primary fibroblasts from CS and EPP fibroblasts show opposed amount of total rRNAs. After cell irradiation with UV light, CSA triggers the dissociation of the CSA-FECH-RNAP1-RPs complex from the chromatin while it stabilizes its binding to FECH. Besides disclosing a function for FECH within nucleoli, this study sheds light on the still unknown mechanisms through which CSA modulates rRNA transcription.

Transcriptome profiles in MRC5 and CS1AN cell lines upon UV irradiation

Project description:Cockayne syndrome (CS) is mainly caused by mutations in CSB gene encoding a protein belonging to SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling family. CS1AN cells derived from CS patients carrying mutations in CSB gene are useful for the study of nucleotide excision repair (NER) upon UV- or oxidative stress-induced DNA damage. However, establishment of isogenic cells endogenously expressing wild type CSB is tedious and difficult. Normal fibroblast MRC5 has been widely used to study cellular reponse to stress. This study was designed to systematically analyze the features of these two cell lines during DNA damage and repair pathways, aiming to provide a reference for application of these two cell lines as in vitro model. We show that CS1AN is hypersensitive to UV irradiation compared to MRC5. We found that CSB is essential for regulating gene expression in response to DNA damage.

A CSB-PAF1C axis restores processive transcription elongation after DNA damage repair

Project description:The coordinated transcription of genes involves the regulated release of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) from promoter-proximal sites into active elongation. DNA lesions in transcribed strands block elongation and induce a strong transcriptional arrest. The transcription-coupled repair (TCR) pathway efficiently removes transcription-blocking DNA lesions, but this is not sufficient to resume transcription. Through proteomics screens, we find that the TCR-specific CSB protein loads the evolutionary conserved PAF1 complex (PAF1C) onto RNAPII in promoter-proximal regions in response to DNA damage. PAF1C is dispensable for TCR-mediated repair, but is essential for recovery of RNA synthesis after UV irradiation, suggesting an uncoupling between DNA repair and transcription recovery. Moreover, we find that PAF1C promotes RNAPII pause release in promoter-proximal regions and subsequently acts as a processivity factor that stimulates transcription elongation throughout genes. Our findings expose the molecular basis for a non-canonical PAF1C-dependent pathway that restores transcription throughout the human genome after genotoxic stress.

UV-specific and -indepent interactors

Project description:The response to DNA damage-stalled RNA polymerase II (RNAPIIo) involves the assembly of the transcription-coupled repair (TCR) complex on actively transcribed strands. The function of the TCR proteins CSB, CSA and UVSSA and the manner in which the core DNA repair complex, including transcription factor IIH (TFIIH), is recruited is largely unknown. Here, we define the assembly mechanism of the TCR complex in human isogenic knockout cells. We show that TCR is initiated by RNAPIIo-bound CSB, which recruits CSA through a newly identified CSA-interaction domain (CID). Once recruited, CSA facilitates the association of UVSSA with stalled RNAPIIo. Importantly, we find that UVSSA is the key factor that regulates the assembly of the TFIIH complex in a manner that is stabilized by CSB and CSA. We identify the UV-specific and independent interactors of UVSSA

Cockayne syndrome A and B proteins regulate the transcription arrest upon genotoxic stress through a ubiquitin/proteasome degradation process (ChIP-seq)

Project description:The rare genetic disease Cockayne syndrome (CS) results in mutations in CSA and CSB. Upon UV irradiation, RNA synthesis was arrested: RNA-seq showed 70% of down-regulated genes in common between CSA and CSB deficient cells. ATF3, the product of an immediate early gene was overexpressed and bound to its CRE/ATF site to inhibit its responsive genes. ChIP experiments showed that CSA/CUL4A/DDB1 together with CSB and MDM2, target ATF3. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that ATF3 was ubiquitilated by a concerted action of CSA and MDM2 ubiquitin-ligases and was further eliminated by the proteasome concomitantly with the recruitment of RNA polymerase II to restart transcription. In CS cells, dysfunctional CSA or CSB were unable to assemble the ubiquitin/proteasome complex, thereby maintaining the ATF3-dependent transcription arrested. Though, in addition to their function in DNA repair, CSA and CSB might thus regulate the timing of DNA binding factors on its specific target site via the ubiquitin/proteasome machinery.
