Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at RNA polymerase II (RNAPII)-transcribed genes lead to inhibition of transcription. DNA protein kinase (DNA-PK) complex plays a pivotal role in transcription inhibition at DSBs by stimulating proteasome-dependent eviction of RNAPII at these lesions. How DNA-PK triggers RNAPII eviction to inhibit transcription at DSBs remained unclear. Here we show that the HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase WWP2 associates with components of the DNA-PK and RNAPII complexes and is recruited to DSBs at RNAPII-transcribed genes. In response to DSBs, WWP2 targets the RNAPII subunit RPB1 for K48-linked ubiquitylation, thereby driving DNA-PK- and proteasome-dependent eviction of RNAPII. The lack of WWP2 or expression of non-ubiquitylatable RPB1 abrogates the loading of Non-Homologous End-Joining (NHEJ) factors, including DNA-PK and XRCC4/DNA ligase IV, and impairs DSB repair. These findings suggest that WWP2 operates in a DNA-PK-dependent shut-off circuitry for RNAPII clearance that promotes DSB repair by protecting the NHEJ machinery from collision with the transcription machinery.

Project description:Sister chromatid cohesion, established during replication by the protein complex Cohesin, is essential for both chromosome segregation and double-strand break (DSB) repair. Normally cohesion formation is strictly limited to the S-phase of the cell cycle, but DSBs can trigger cohesion also after DNA replication has been completed. The function of this damage-induced cohesion remains unknown. In this investigation we show that it is essential for repair in post-replicative cells in yeast. Furthermore, it is established genome-wide after induction of a single DSB, and controlled by the DNA damage response and Cohesin regulating factors. We thus define a cohesion establishment pathway that is independent of DNA duplication and acts together with cohesion formed during replication in sister chromatid-based DSB repair.

All yeast strains were haploid and of W303 origin (ade2-1, trp1-1, can1-100, leu2-3, 112, his3-11, 15, ura3, RAD5). DNA was purified and amplified as previously described by Katou et al. (nature, 2003), and hybridized to SC3456a 52005F or S.cerevisiae Tiling 1.0F arrays, Part#520286 (Affymetrix). Scc2 was C- terminally tagged with 6HIS-3xFLAG, while Mcd1UNCL was marked with 3HA epitopes. Anti-FLAG antibody M2 (Sigma), anti-HA antibody (Babco), or anti γ-H2A-antobodies kindly provided by A. Verreault were used for immuno-precipitations.

Project description:Correct chromosome segregation requires that sister chromatids are held together by the protein complex cohesin, from S phase until anaphase. This S phase established cohesion is, together with DSB recruitment of cohesin and formation of damage induced (DI) cohesion, also important for repair of DSBs. Eco1 is a common essential factor for S phase and DI-cohesion. The fission yeast Eco1ortholog, Eso1, is important both for S phase cohesion and for bypass of UV induced lesions, and is expressed as a fusion protein with Polη. The cohesion function has been attributed solely to Eso1 and the lesion bypass function to the Polη part of the protein. As we found the interaction between the two proteins intriguing we decided to look for a functional connection also in budding yeast. Indeed, despite being dispensable for S phase cohesion, budding yeast Polη is required for formation of DI genome-wide cohesion. However, Polη deficient cells are DSB repair competent, revealing differential regulation of DI-cohesion at the break and genome-wide. This finding challenges the importance of DI genome-wide cohesion for DSB repair, and based on our findings we suggest that S phase cohesion is not sufficient for correct chromosome segregation in the presence of DNA damage.

Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and their repair can cause extensive epigenetic changes. As a result, DSBs have been proposed to promote transcriptional and, ultimately, physiological dysfunction via both cell-intrinsic and cell-non-autonomous pathways. Studying the consequences of DSBs in higher organisms has, however, been hindered by a scarcity of tools for controlled DSB induction. Using a mouse model for both tissue-specific and temporally controlled DSB formation, we investigated the transcriptional response to break repair.

Project description:The mitotic cohesin complex necessary for sister chromatid cohesion and chromatin loop formation shows local and global association to chromosomes in response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here, by genome-wide binding analysis of the meiotic cohesin with Rec8 as a kleisin, we found that Rec8 shows dynamic localization from middle to late meiotic prophase I with cleavage-independent global dissociation along chromosomes, driven by meiotic DSB formation. Each Rec8 binding site on the chromosome axis follows distinct dynamics with dissociation and association. Centromeres also showed reduced Rec8 binding in late prophase I relative to mid-prophase I, implying chromosome remodeling of the regions. Rec8 dissociation profile per chromosome is largely correlated with meiotic DSB density. Indeed, the spo11 mutant deficient in meiotic DSB formation did not show the cleavage-independent dissociation of Rec8 in late meiotic prophase I. These suggest the presence of a regulatory pathway for global Rec8-cohesin dynamics in response to meiotic DSBs.

Project description:Neuronal activity generates DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in vitro and in vivo, and these breaks facilitate the rapid transcriptional induction of immediate early genes (IEGs). Yet the locations of these DSBs in vivo and their relation to brain function remains unclear. Here, following contextual fear conditioning in mice, we profiled the locations of DSBs genome-wide along with transcriptomic changes in neurons and glia in two brain regions. Interestingly, while DSB-susceptible genes induced by fear learning in neurons are predominately involved in synaptic processes, we also observe increased DNA breaks at genes upregulated in glia. Both activity-regulated and proteostasis-related transcription factors appear to govern these gene expression changes across cell types. Finally, we find that glia but not neurons have a robust transcriptional response to glucocorticoids, and these are sites of DSBs. Overall, our data show that fear learning rapidly induces transcriptional changes at genes important for brain function, including stress-responsive genes in glia, and this correlates with hotspots of DSBs.

Project description:Various modes of DNA repair counteract genotoxic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) to maintain genome stability. Recent findings suggest that the human DNA damage response (DDR) utilises damage-induced small RNA for efficient repair of DSBs. However, production and processing of RNA is poorly understood. Here we show that localised induction of DSBs triggers phosphorylation of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) on carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) residue tyrosine-1 in an Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 (MRN) complex-dependent manner. CTD Tyr1-phosphorylated RNAPII synthetises, strand-specific, damage-responsive transcripts (DARTs). DART synthesis occurs via formation of transient RNA-DNA hybrid (R-loop) intermediates. Impaired R-loop formation attenuates DART synthesis, impairs recruitment of repair factors and delays the DDR. Collectively, we provide mechanistic insight in RNA-dependent DSB repair.
