VID22 counteracts G-quadruplex-induced genome instability

ABSTRACT: Genome instability is a condition characterized by the accumulation of various genetic alterations and is a hallmark of cancer cells. To uncover new genes and cellular pathways controlling the levels of endogenous DNA damage and affecting genome integrity, we exploited a Synthetic Genetic Array (SGA)-based screen in yeast. Among the positive genes, we identified VID22, a gene previously reported to be involved in DNA double-strand break repair. We found that vid22Δ cells exhibit chronic DNA damage response activation, show increased levels of increased endogenous DNA damage and accumulate DNA aberrations in sequences displaying high probabilities of forming G-quadruplexes (G4-DNA). If not resolved, these non-canonical DNA secondary structures can block the progression of both DNA and RNA polymerases and correlate with chromosome fragile sites. We show that Vid22 in vitro and in vivo binds directly to and protects DNA at G4-containing regions both in vitro and in vivo. In particular, loss of VID22 causes an increase in gross chromosomal rearrangement (GCR) events dependent on G-quadruplex forming sequences. We also demonstrate that the absence of Vid22 causes defects in the correct maintenance of G4-DNA rich elements, such as telomeres and mtDNA, and hypersensitivity to the G4-stabilizing ligand TMPyP4. We thus propose that Vid22 is directly involved in genome integrity maintenance as a novel regulator of G4 metabolism.

Co-immunoprecipitation of G-quadruplex-containing Core Promoter and nanoLC-FAMIS-MS/MS

Project description:G-quadruplexes (G4s) are noncanonical DNA secondary structures formed through the self-association of guanines, and they are distributed widely across the genome. G4 participates in multiple biological processes including gene transcription, and G4-targeted ligands serve as potential therapeutic agents for DNA-targeted therapies. However, genome-wide studies of the exact roles of G4s in transcriptional regulation are still lacking. We found that drug-induced promoter-proximal RNA polymerase II pausing promotes nearby G4 formation, and oppositely, G4 stabilization by G4-targeted ligands globally reduces RNA polymerase II occupancy at gene promoters as well as nascent RNA synthesis. To study the underlying mechanisms by which native G4 affects transcriptional regulation, we annealed the biotin-labeled core promoter DNA to form G4s and performed pull-down assays with nuclear extraction proteins in the presence or absence of TMPyP4. Mass spectrometry analysis was performed to identify the interacting proteins with G4-forming core promoter DNA.

Pt-ttpy, a G-quadruplex binding platinum complex, induces telomere dysfunction and G-rich regions DNA damage

Project description:Pt-ttpy (tolyl terpyridin-Pt complex) covalently binds to G-quadruplex (G4) structures in vitro and to telomeres in cellulo via its Pt moiety. Here, we identified its targets in the human genome, in comparison to Pt-tpy, its derivative without G4 affinity, and cisplatin. Pt-ttpy, but not Pt-tpy, induces the release of the shelterin protein TRF2 from telomeres concomitantly to the formation of DNA damage foci at telomeres but also at other chromosomal locations. -H2AX chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP-seq) after treatment with Pt-ttpy or cisplatin revealed accumulation in G- and A-rich tandemly repeated sequences, but not particularly in potential G4 forming sequences. Collectively, Pt-ttpy presents dual targeting efficiency on DNA, by inducing telomere dysfunction and genomic DNA damage at specific loci.

YY1 regulates DNA-DNA interaction

Project description:The DNA Guanine quadruplexes (G4) plays important roles in multiple cellular processes, including regulation of DNA replication, transcription and genome stability. Here, we show that Yin Yang-1 (YY1), a ubiquitously expressed and multifunctional transcription factor, can bind with G4 structures directly. Fluorescence anisotropy experiments shows that YY1 binds towards G4 structures with Kd in low nanomolar range (<100 nM) through the C terminal zinc finger domains. ChIP-seq results show that 81% of the YY1 ChIP-seq peaks contain G4 forming sequences, which is highly overlapped with the G4 ChIP-seq peaks. YY1 facilitate the DNA-DNA interaction through its binding with G4 structures in vivo and in vitro, which can be disturbed by G4 stabilizer treatment. In all, our studies identify a novel G4 structure binding protein-YY1, and reveal that G4 structure functions in DNA-DNA interaction.

Proteome-wide Identification of DNA Guanine Quadruplex-binding Proteins

Project description:DNA sequences of high guanine (G) content have the potential to fold into G quadruplex (G4) structures. DNA G4 is known to play important roles in various cellular processes including DNA replication, transcriptional regulation, and maintenance of genomic integrity. A more complete understanding about the biological functions of G4 DNA requires the investigation about how these structures are recognized by cellular proteins. Here, we conducted exhaustive quantitative proteomic experiments to profile the interaction proteomes of three well-defined G4 structures derived from the human telomere and the promoters of cMYC and cKIT genes. Our results led to the identification of a number of candidate G4-interacting proteins; some were previously reported, e.g., FUS, TOP1, and PARP1, and many others were discovered here for the first time. These included three proteins that can bind to all three DNA G4 structures and many proteins that can bind specifically to selected DNA G4 structure(s). We also validated that GRSF1 can bind directly and selectively toward G4 DNA structure derived from the cMYC promoter. Taken together, we uncovered a number of cellular proteins that exhibit general and selective recognitions of G4 folding patterns, which underscore the complexity of G4 DNA in biology and the importance in understanding fully the G4-interaction proteome.

Phase Separation Modulates DNA Guanine Quadruplex Formation in vitro and in cells

Project description:In the presence of monovalent alkali metal ions, G-rich DNA sequences containing four runs of contiguous guanines can fold into G-quadruplex (G4) structures. Recent studies showed that these structures are located in critical regions of the human genome and assume important functions in many essential DNA metabolic processes, including replication, transcription and repair. However, not all potential G4-forming sequences are actually folded into G4 structures in cells, where G4 structures are known to be dynamic and modulated by G4-binding proteins as well as helicases. It remains unclear whether there are other factors influencing the formation and stability of G4 structures in cells. Herein, we showed that DNA G4s can undergo phase separation in vitro. In addition, immunofluorescence microscopy and ChIP-Seq experiments with the use of BG4, a G4 structure-specific antibody, revealed that disruption of phase separation in cells could result in global destabilization of G4 structures. Together, our work revealed phase separation as a new determinant in regulating the formation and stability of G4 structures in human cells.

The essential Schizosaccharomyces pombe Pfh1 DNA helicase promotes fork movement past G-quadruplex motifs to prevent DNA damage

Project description:Background G-quadruplexes (G4s) are stable non-canonical DNA secondary structures consisting of stacked arrays of four guanines, each held together by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonds. Sequences with the ability to form these structures in vitro, G4 motifs, are found throughout bacterial and eukaryotic genomes. The budding yeast Pif1 DNA helicase, as well as several bacterial Pif1 family helicases, unwind G4 structures robustly in vitro and suppress G4-induced DNA damage in S. cerevisiae in vivo. Results We determined the genomic distribution and evolutionary conservation of G4 motifs in four fission yeast species and investigated the relationship between G4 motifs and Pfh1, the sole S. pombe Pif1 family helicase. Using chromatin immunoprecipitation combined with deep sequencing, we found that many G4 motifs in the S. pombe genome were associated with Pfh1. Cells depleted of Pfh1 had increased fork pausing and DNA damage near G4 motifs, as indicated by high DNA polymerase occupancy and phosphorylated histone H2A, respectively. In general, G4 motifs were underrepresented in genes. However, Pfh1-associated G4 motifs were located on the transcribed strand of highly transcribed genes significantly more often than expected, suggesting that Pfh1 has a function in replication or transcription at these sites. Conclusions In the absence of functional Pfh1, unresolved G4 structures cause fork pausing and DNA damage of the sort associated with human tumors.

Altered gene expression in Werner & Bloom syndromes is associated with sequences having G-quadruplex forming potential

Project description:The human Werner and Bloom syndromes (WS and BS) are caused by deficiencies in the WRN and BLM RecQ helicases, respectively. WRN, BLM and their S. cerevisiae homologue Sgs1, are particularly active in vitro in unwinding G-quadruplex DNA (G4-DNA), a family of non-canonical nucleic acid structures formed by certain G-rich sequences. Recently, mRNA levels from loci containing potential G-quadruplex-forming sequences (PQS) were found to be preferentially altered in sgs1 mutants, suggesting that G4-DNA targeting by Sgs1 directly affects gene expression. Here, we extend these findings to human cells. Using microarrays to measure mRNAs obtained from human fibroblasts deficient for various RecQ family helicases, we observe significant associations between loci that are upregulated in WS or BS cells and loci that have PQS. No such PQS associations were observed for control expression datasets, however. Furthermore, upregulated genes in WS and BS showed no or dramatically reduced associations with sequences similar to PQS but that have considerably reduced potential to form intramolecular G4-DNA. These findings indicate that, like Sgs1, WRN and BLM can regulate transcription globally by targeting G4-DNA.

DNA damage and genome instability by G-quadruplex ligands are mediated by R-loops in human cancer cells

Project description:G-quadruplexes (G4s) and R-loops are non-canonical DNA structures that can play regulatory functions of basic nuclear processes and can trigger DNA damage and genome instability. We here show that specific G4 ligands can stabilize G4s and simultaneously increase R-loop levels in human cancer cells likely by spreading DNA:RNA heteroduplexes to adjacent regions containing G4 structures. DNA cleavage and DNA damage response induced by G4 ligands were rescued by overexpression of exogenous RNaseH1 in cancer cells independently of BRCA2 status. The data thus show that R-loops are involved in the induction of DNA damage by chemical G4 stabilization. In addition, G4 ligands trigger the formation of micronuclei, particularly in BRCA2-silenced cancer cells, in an R-loop dependent manner. Our results uncover the mechanism of genome instability caused by G4 ligands and can open to the development of unexpected anticancer strategies using G4-targeted agents.
