Evidence for the involvement of DNA repair enzyme NEIL1 in nucleotide excision repair of (5'R)- and (5'S)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosines.

ABSTRACT: The DNA repair enzyme NEIL1 is a DNA glycosylase that is involved in the first step of base excision repair (BER) of oxidatively induced DNA damage. NEIL1 exhibits a strong preference for excision of 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyAde) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua) from DNA with no specificity for 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua). In this study, we report on the significant accumulation of (5'R)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (R-cdA) and (5'S)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (S-cdA) in liver DNA of neil1(-/-) mice that were not exposed to exogenous oxidative stress, while no accumulation of these lesions was observed in liver DNA from control or ogg1(-/-) mice. Significant accumulation of FapyGua was detected in liver DNA of both neil1(-/-) and ogg1(-/-) mice, while 8-OH-Gua accumulated in ogg1(-/-) only. Since R-cdA and S-cdA contain an 8,5'-covalent bond between the base and sugar moieties, they cannot be repaired by BER. There is evidence that these lesions are repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER). Since the accumulation of R-cdA and S-cdA in neil1(-/-) mice strongly points to the failure of their repair, these data suggest that NEIL1 is involved in NER of R-cdA and S-cdA. Further studies aimed at elucidating the mechanism of action of NEIL1 in NER are warranted.

Inhibition of Excision of Oxidatively Generated Hydantoin DNA Lesions by NEIL1 by the Competitive Binding of the Nucleotide Excision Repair Factor XPC-RAD23B.

Project description:The interplay between nucleotide excision repair (NER) and base excision repair (BER) of nonbulky, oxidatively generated DNA lesions has long been a subject of significant interest. The hydantoin oxidation products of 8-oxoguanine, spiroiminodihydantoin (Sp) and 5-guanidinohydantoin (Gh), are substrates of both BER and NER in HeLa cell extracts and human cells [Shafirovich, V., et al. (2019) Chem. Res. Toxicol. 32, 753-761]. The primary factor that recognizes DNA lesions is the DNA damage-sensing factor XPC-RAD23B (XPC), while the glycosylase NEIL1 is known to remove Gh and Sp lesions from double-stranded DNA. It is shown here that in aqueous solutions containing nanomolar concentrations of proteins, XPC and NEIL1 compete for binding to 147-mer oligonucleotide duplexes that contain single Gh or Sp lesions under conditions of [protein] ≫ [DNA], thus inhibiting the rate of BER catalyzed by NEIL1. The non-covalently bound NEIL1 molecules can be displaced by XPC at concentration ratios R = [XPC]/[NEIL1] > 0.2, while full displacement of NEIL1 is observed at R ≥ 0.5. In the absence of XPC and under single-turnover conditions, only the burst phase is observable. However, with a progressive increase in the XPC concentration, the amplitude of the burst phase decreases gradually, and a slower time-dependent phase of incision product formation manifests itself with rate constants of 3.0 × 10-3 s-1 (Gh) and 0.90 × 10-3 s-1 (Sp). These slow kinetics are attributed to the dissociation of XPC-DNA complexes that allow for the rebinding of NEIL1 to the temporarily exposed Gh or Sp lesions, and the incisions observed under these steady-state conditions.

Crystal structure of the DNA nucleotide excision repair enzyme UvrB from Thermus thermophilus.

Project description:Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the most important DNA-repair mechanism in living organisms. In prokaryotes, three enzymes forming the UvrABC system initiate NER of a variety of structurally different DNA lesions. UvrB, the central component of this system, is responsible for the ultimate DNA damage recognition and participates in the incision of the damaged DNA strand. The crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus UvrB reveals a core that is structurally similar to core regions found in helicases, where they constitute molecular motors. Additional domains implicated in binding to DNA and various components of the NER system are attached to this central core. The architecture and distribution of DNA binding sites suggest a possible model for the DNA damage recognition process.

The involvement of nucleotide excision repair proteins in the removal of oxidative DNA damage.

Project description:The six major mammalian DNA repair pathways were discovered as independent processes, each dedicated to remove specific types of lesions, but the past two decades have brought into focus the significant interplay between these pathways. In particular, several studies have demonstrated that certain proteins of the nucleotide excision repair (NER) and base excision repair (BER) pathways work in a cooperative manner in the removal of oxidative lesions. This review focuses on recent data showing how the NER proteins, XPA, XPC, XPG, CSA, CSB and UV-DDB, work to stimulate known glycosylases involved in the removal of certain forms of base damage resulting from oxidative processes, and also discusses how some oxidative lesions are probably directly repaired through NER. Finally, since many glycosylases are inhibited from working on damage in the context of chromatin, we detail how we believe UV-DDB may be the first responder in altering the structure of damage containing-nucleosomes, allowing access to BER enzymes.

Nucleotide excision repair of abasic DNA lesions.

Project description:Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites are a class of highly mutagenic and toxic DNA lesions arising in the genome from a number of exogenous and endogenous sources. Repair of AP lesions takes place predominantly by the base excision pathway (BER). However, among chemically heterogeneous AP lesions formed in DNA, some are resistant to the endonuclease APE1 and thus refractory to BER. Here, we employed two types of reporter constructs accommodating synthetic APE1-resistant AP lesions to investigate the auxiliary repair mechanisms in human cells. By combined analyses of recovery of the transcription rate and suppression of transcriptional mutagenesis at specifically positioned AP lesions, we demonstrate that nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER) efficiently removes BER-resistant AP lesions and significantly enhances the repair of APE1-sensitive ones. Our results further indicate that core NER components XPA and XPF are equally required and that both global genome (GG-NER) and transcription coupled (TC-NER) subpathways contribute to the repair.

Induction of 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine and 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine in isolated DNA by Fenton-type reagents.

Project description:Exposure of aqueous solutions of DNA to X- or ?-rays, which induces the hydroxyl radical as one of the major reactive oxygen species (ROS), can result in the generation of a battery of single-nucleobase and bulky DNA lesions. These include the (5'R) and (5'S) diastereomers of 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG), which were also found to be present at appreciable levels in DNA isolated from mammalian cells and tissues. However, it remains unexplored how efficiently the cdA and cdG can be induced by Fenton-type reagents. By employing HPLC coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS/MS) with the use of the isotope-dilution technique, here we demonstrated that treatment of calf thymus DNA with Cu(II) or Fe(II), together with H2O2 and ascorbate, could lead to dose-responsive formation of both the (5'R) and (5'S) diastereomers of cdA and cdG, though the yields of cdG were 2-4 orders of magnitude lower than that of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine. This result suggests that the Fenton reaction may constitute an important endogenous source for the formation of the cdA and cdG. Additionally, the (5'R) diastereomers of cdA and cdG were induced at markedly higher levels than the (5'S) counterparts. This latter finding, in conjunction with the previous observations of similar or greater levels of the (5'S) than (5'R) diastereomers of the two lesions in mammalian tissues, furnishes an additional line of evidence to support the more efficient repair of the (5'R) diastereomers of the purine cyclonucleosides in mammalian cells.

Repair efficiency of (5'S)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine and (5'S)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine depends on the complementary base.

Project description:5'-R and 5'-S diastereoisomers of 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cdA) and 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine (cdG) containing a base-sugar covalent bond are formed by hydroxyl radicals. R-cdA and S-cdA are repaired by nucleotide excision repair (NER) in mammalian cellular extracts. Here, we have examined seven purified base excision repair enzymes for their ability to repair S-cdG or S-cdA. We could not detect either excision or binding of these enzymes on duplex oligonucleotide substrates containing these lesions. However, both lesions were repaired by HeLa cell extracts. Dual incisions by human NER on a 136-mer duplex generated 24-32 bp fragments. The time course of dual incisions were measured in comparison to cis-anti-B[a]P-N(2)-dG, an excellent substrate for human NER, which showed that cis-anti-B[a]P-N(2)-dG was repaired more efficiently than S-cdG, which, in turn, was repaired more efficiently than S-cdA. When NER efficiency of S-cdG with different complementary bases was investigated, the wobble pair S-cdG·dT was excised more efficiently than the S-cdG·dC pair that maintains nearly normal Watson-Crick base pairing. But S-cdG·dA mispair with no hydrogen bonds was excised less efficiently than the S-cdG·dC pair. Similar pattern was noted for S-cdA. The S-cdA·dC mispair was excised much more efficiently than the S-cdA·dT pair, whereas the S-cdA·dA pair was excised less efficiently. This result adds to complexity of human NER, which discriminates the damaged base pairs on the basis of multiple criteria.

Lack of involvement of nucleotide excision repair gene polymorphisms in colorectal cancer.

Project description:DNA repair has an essential role in protecting the genome from damage by endogenous and environmental agents. Polymorphisms in DNA repair genes and differences in repair capacity between individuals have been widely documented. For colorectal cancer, the loss of mismatch repair gene activity is a key genetic determinant. Nucleotide excision repair (NER), recombination repair (RR) and base excision repair (BER) pathways have critical roles in protection against other cancers, and we wished to investigate their role in colorectal cancer. We have compared the frequency of polymorphisms in the NER genes, XPD, XPF, XPG, ERCC1; in the BER gene, XRCC1; and in the RR gene, XRCC3; in colorectal cancer patients and in a control group. No significant associations were found for any of the NER gene polymorphisms or for the XRCC1 polymorphism. The C allele (position 18067) of the XRCC3 gene was weakly but significantly associated with colorectal cancer (odds ratio 1.52, 95% confidence interval 1.04-2.22, P=0.03). For all patients who were heterozygous for any of the repair genes studied, tumour tissue was investigated for loss of heterozygosity (LOH). Only one example of LOH was found for all the genes examined. From the association and LOH data, we conclude that these genes do not have an important role in protection against colorectal carcinogenesis.

DNA nucleotide excision repair-dependent signaling to checkpoint activation.

Project description:Eukaryotic cells respond to a variety of DNA insults by triggering a common signal transduction cascade, known as checkpoint response, which temporarily halts cell-cycle progression. Although the main players involved in the cascade have been identified, there is still uncertainty about the nature of the structures that activate these surveillance mechanisms. To understand the role of nucleotide excision repair (NER) in checkpoint activation, we analyzed the UV-induced phosphorylation of the key checkpoint proteins Chk1 and p53, in primary fibroblasts from patients with xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), Cockayne syndrome (CS), trichothiodystrophy (TTD), or UV light-sensitive syndrome. These disorders are due to defects in transcription-coupled NER (TC-NER) and/or global genome NER (GG-NER), the NER subpathways repairing the transcribed strand of active genes or the rest of the genome, respectively. We show here that in G0/G1 and G2/M phases of the cell cycle, triggering of the DNA damage cascade requires recognition and processing of the lesions by the GG-NER. Loss of TC-NER does not affect checkpoint activation. Mutations in XPD, XPB, and in TTDA, encoding subunits of the TFIIH complex, involved in both transcription and NER, impair checkpoint triggering. The only exception is represented by mutations in XPD, resulting in combined features of XP and CS (XP/CS) that lead to activation of the checkpoint cascade after UV radiation. Inhibition of RNA polymerase II transcription significantly reduces the phosphorylation of key checkpoint factors in XP/CS fibroblasts on exposure to UV damage.

Structure of (5'S)-8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine in DNA.

Project description:Diastereomeric 8,5'-cyclopurine 2'-deoxynucleosides, containing a covalent bond between the deoxyribose and the purine base, represent an important class of DNA damage induced by ionizing radiation. The 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyguanosine lesion (cdG) has been recently reported to be a strong block of replication and highly mutagenic in Escherichia coli. The 8,5'-cyclopurine-2'-deoxyriboses are suspected to play a role in the etiology of neurodegeneration in xeroderma pigmentosum patients. These lesions cannot be repaired by base excision repair, but they are substrates for nucleotide excision repair. The structure of an oligodeoxynucleotide duplex containing a site-specific S-cdG lesion placed opposite dC in the complementary strand was obtained by molecular dynamics calculations restrained by distance and dihedral angle restraints obtained from NMR spectroscopy. The S-cdG deoxyribose exhibited the O4'-exo (west) pseudorotation. Significant perturbations were observed for the ?, ?, and ? torsion angles of the S-cdG nucleoside. Watson-Crick base pairing was conserved at the S-cdG·dC pair. However, the O4'-exo pseudorotation of the S-cdG deoxyribose perturbed the helical twist and base pair stacking at the lesion site and the 5'-neighbor dC·dG base pair. Thermodynamic destabilization of the duplex measured by UV melting experiments correlated with base stacking and structural perturbations involving the modified S-cdG·dC and 3'- neighbor dT·dA base pairs. These perturbations may be responsible for both the genotoxicity of this lesion and its ability to be recognized by nucleotide excision repair.

DNA interstrand crosslink repair during G1 involves nucleotide excision repair and DNA polymerase zeta.

Project description:The repair mechanisms acting on DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) in eukaryotes are poorly understood. Here, we provide evidence for a pathway of ICL processing that uses components from both nucleotide excision repair (NER) and translesion synthesis (TLS) and predominates during the G1 phase of the yeast cell cycle. Our results suggest that repair is initiated by the NER apparatus and is followed by a thwarted attempt at gap-filling by the replicative Polymerase delta, which likely stalls at the site of the remaining crosslinked oligonucleotide. This in turn leads to ubiquitination of PCNA and recruitment of the damage-tolerant Polymerase zeta that can perform TLS. The ICL repair factor Pso2 acts downstream of the incision step and is not required for Polymerase zeta activation. We show that this combination of NER and TLS is the only pathway of ICL repair available to the cell in G1 phase and is essential for viability in the presence of DNA crosslinks.
