Cohesin regulates homology search during recombinational DNA repair [Hi-C]

ABSTRACT: Homologous recombination (HR) is an ubiquitous DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair mechanism. It entails a homology search step, carried out along a conserved RecA/Rad51-ssDNA nucleoprotein filament (NPF) assembled on each DSB ends. In contrast to the extensive knowledge of DNA damage checkpoint (DDC)-induced changes in chromatin composition and mobility, the questions of if, how, and to what extent a DSB impacts the spatial organization of chromatin, and whether this organization in turn influences the homology search process, remain ill-defined. Here we characterize two layers of spatial chromatin reorganization following DSB formation in S. cerevisiae. While cohesin folds chromosomes into cohesive arrays of ~20 kb-long chromatin loops as cells arrest in G2/M, the DSB-flanking regions interact locally in a resection- and 9-1-1 clamp-dependent manner, independently of cohesin, Mec1ATR, Rad52 and Rad51. This local structure blocks cohesin progression, constraining the DSB region at the base of a loop. Functionally, cohesin promotes DSB-dsDNA interactions and donor identification in cis, while inhibiting them in trans. This study identifies multiple direct and indirect ways by which cohesin regulates homology search during HR repair.

Mechanism of homology search expansion during recombinational DNA repair

Project description:Homology search is a central step of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair by homologous recombination. How it operates in cells remains elusive. Here we developed a Hi-C-based methodology to map single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) contacts genome-wide in S. cerevisiae, which revealed two main homology search phases. Initial search conducted by short Rad51-ssDNA nucleoprotein filaments (NPFs) is confined in cis by cohesin-mediated chromatin loop folding. Progressive growth of stiff NPFs enables exploration of distant genomic sites. Long-range resection drives this transition from local to genome-wide search by increasing the probability of assembly of extensive NPFs. DSB end-tethering promotes coordinated homology search by opposite NPFs. Finally, an autonomous genetic element on chromosome III engages the NPF, which stimulates homology search in its vicinity. This work reveals the mechanism of the progressive expansion of homology search orchestrated by chromatin organizers, long-range resection, end-tethering, specialized genetic elements, and that exploits the stiff NPF structure conferred by Rad51 oligomerization.

Monitoring Homology Search during DNA Double-Strand Break Repair in vivo

Project description:Homologous recombination (HR) is crucial for genetic exchange, accurate repair of DNA double-strand breaks and pivotal for genome integrity. HR uses homologous sequences for repair, but how homology search, the exploration of the genome for homologous DNA sequences, is conducted in the nucleus remains poorly understood. Here, we use time-resolved chromatin immunoprecipitations of repair proteins to monitor homology search in vivo. We found that homology search proceeds by a probing mechanism, which commences around the break and samples preferentially on the broken chromosome. However, elements thought to instruct chromosome loops mediate homology search shortcuts, and centromeres, which cluster within the nucleus, may facilitate homology search on other chromosomes. Our study thus revealed crucial parameters for homology search in vivo and emphasizes the importance of linear distance, chromosome architecture and proximity for recombination efficiency. 2 new custom ChIP-chip platforms used; both Nimblegen; differ in oligo density: (platform 1: 2006-07-18_Scerevisiae_ChIP_Stefan Jentsch MPI Biochemistry S.cerevisiae 385K Tiling Array Version 1) ( platform 2: 100304_Scer2_MS_Chip_Stefan Jentsch MPI Biochemistry S.cerevisiae 135K Tiling Array Version 2) ChIP-chip profiling of DSB repair factors (Rad51, Rad52, RPA, gamma-H2A) upon single inducible DSBs in S.cerevisiae

High-throughput capture of ectopic chromosomal sequence

Project description:DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are a prominent source of genetic instability/variability frequently associating genome rearrangements with the capture of ectopic chromosomal sequences (ECSs) at junctions. Homologous recombination (HR) is considered in textbooks as an error-free DSB repair mechanism that protects against genome instability. Contradicting this dogma, we show that silencing the central HR players RAD51 or BRCA2 suppresses the sequence homology-independent capture of ECS at the junctions of distant DSBs, especially in 53BP1-depleted cells. We confirmed the requirement of RAD51 for ECS capture at a genome-wide level through high-throughput genome translocation sequencing.

FIGNL1 AAA+ ATPase remodels RAD51 and DMC1 filaments in meiotic DNA replication and recombination

Project description:The formation of RAD51/DMC1 filaments on single-stranded (ss)DNAs, which is essential for homology search and strand exchange in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair and for the protection of stalled DNA replication forks, is tightly regulated in time and space. FIGNL1 AAA+++ ATPase plays positive and negative roles in the RAD51-mediated recombination in human cells. However, the role of FIGNL1 in gametogenesis remains unsolved. Here, we characterized a germ-line-specific conditional knockout (cKO) mouse of FIGNL1. The Fignl1 cKO male mice showed defective chromosome synapsis and impaired meiotic DSB repair with the accumulation of RAD51/DMC1 on chromosomes in mid-meiotic prophase I, supporting a role of FIGNL1 in a post-assembly stage of RAD51/DMC1 filaments. Fignl1 cKO spermatocytes accumulate RAD51 and DMC1 ensembles on chromosomes not only in early meiotic prophase I but also in meiotic S-phase. These RAD51/DMC1 assemblies are independent of meiotic DSB formation. Finally, we showed that purified FIGNL1 dismantles RAD51 filament on double-stranded (ds)DNA as well as ssDNA. These results suggest a critical role of FIGNL1 to limit the uncontrolled assembly of RAD51 and DMC1 on native dsDNAs during the meiotic S-phase and meiotic prophase I.

Transcriptionally active chromatin channels DNA double-strand breaks to RAD51-dependent repair

Project description:Cells have developed effective mechanisms, namely homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ), to repair DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which are considered to be the most deleterious type of damage that can challenge genome integrity. While these pathways coexist to repair DSBs, the mechanisms by which one of these pathways is chosen to repair a particular DSB remain unclear. Here, we show that the chromatin context in which a break occurs participates in this choice and that transcriptionnaly active chromatin channels repair to HR. By using a human cell line expressing a restriction enzyme fused to the ligand binding domain of the oestrogen receptor (AsiSI-ER)2,3, together with a genome wide chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing (ChIP-seq) approach, we establish that distinct DSBs induced across the genome are not necessarily repaired by the same pathway. Indeed, we identify an HR-prone subset of DSBs that recruit the HR protein RAD51, undergo resection, and rely on RAD51 for efficient repair. These DSBs are located in actively transcribed genes, and repair at such DSBs can be switched to RAD51-independent repair pathway upon transcriptional inhibition. Moreover, we show that HR is targeted to transcribed loci thanks to the elongation-associated H3K36me3 histone mark. Indeed depletion of HYPB, the main H3K36 tri methyltransferase severally impedes the use of HR at those DSBs. Our study, thereby demonstrates a clear role for chromatin in DSB repair pathway choice in human cells.

ID3 Promotes Homologous Recombination via Non-transcriptional and Transcriptional Mechanisms and its Loss Confers Sensitivity to PARP Inhibition

Project description:The inhibitor of DNA-binding 3 (ID3) is a transcriptional regulator that limits interaction of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors with their target DNA sequences. We previously reported that ID3 loss is associated with mutational signatures linked to DNA repair defects. Here we demonstrate that ID3 exhibits a dual role to promote DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, particularly homologous recombination (HR). ID3 interacts with the MRN complex and RECQL helicase to activate DSB repair and it facilitates RAD51 loading and downstream steps of HR. In addition, ID3 promotes the expression of HR genes in response to ionizing radiation by regulating both chromatin accessibility and activity of the transcription factor E2F1. Consistently, analyses of TCGA cancer patient data demonstrate that low ID3 expression is associated with impaired HR. The loss of ID3 leads to sensitivity of tumor cells to PARP inhibition, offering new therapeutic opportunities in ID3-deficient tumors.
