RPA and Rad27 limit templated and inverted insertions at DNA breaks

ABSTRACT: Formation of templated insertions at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is very common in cancer cells. The mechanisms and enzymes regulating these events are largely unknown. Here, we investigated templated insertions in yeast at DSBs using amplicon sequencing across a repaired locus. We document very short (most ~5-34 bp), templated inverted duplications at DSBs. They are generated through a foldback mechanism that utilizes microhomologies adjacent to the DSB. Enzymatic requirements suggest a hybrid mechanism wherein one end requires Polδ-mediated synthesis while the other end is captured by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) or rarely by alternative end joining (Alt-EJ). This process is exacerbated in mutants with low levels or mutated RPA (rtt105Δ; rfa1-t33) or extensive resection mutant (sgs1Δ exo1Δ). Templated insertions from various distant genomic locations also increase in these mutants as well as in rad27 and originate from fragile regions of the genome. Among complex insertions, common events are insertions of two sequences, originating from the same locus and with inverted orientation. We propose that these inversions are also formed by microhomology-mediated template switching. Taken together, we propose that a shortage of RPA typical in cancer cells is one possible factor stimulating the formation of templated insertions.

DNA-PKcs Suppresses Illegitimate Chromosome Rearrangements

Project description:Two DNA repair pathways, non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) and alternative end joining (A-EJ), are involved in V(D)J recombination and chromosome translocation. Previous studies reported distinct repair mechanisms for chromosome translocation, with NHEJ predominantly involved in human and A-EJ in mice. NHEJ depends on DNA-PKcs, a critical partner in synapsis formation and downstream component activation. While DNA-PKcs inhibition promotes chromosome translocations harboring microhomologies in mice, its synonymous effect in human is not known. We find partial DNA-PKcs inhibition in human cell lines leads to increased genome-wide translocations composed mostly of direct joints, indicating the continued involvement of dampened NHEJ in these processes. In contrast, complete DNA-PKcs inhibition and genetic inhibition DNA-PKcs kinase domain substantially increased microhomology-mediated end joining (MMEJ), thus bridging the two different translocation mechanisms between human and mice. Similar to a previous study on Ku70 deletion, DNA-PKcs deletion in G1/G0-phase mouse pro-B cell lines, impair the recombination of RAG1/2-mediated DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). This DNA-PKcs-deficient repair mechanism exhibited reduced V(D)J recombination efficiency, increased end resection, decreased polymerase-mediated insertions, loss of recombination fidelity and generated relatively higher rates of chromosome translocation as a consequence of dysregulated coding and signal end joining. Our study underscores DNA-PKcs in suppressing illegitimate chromosome rearrangement in both species.

Sub1 and RPA associate with RNA Polymerase II at different stages of transcription

Project description:Single stranded DNA binding proteins play many roles in nucleic acid metabolism, but their importance during transcription remains unclear. Quantitative proteomic analysis of RNA polymerase II (RNApII) pre-initiation complexes (PICs) identified Sub1 and the Replication Protein A complex (RPA), both of which bind single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Sub1, homolog of mammalian coactivator PC4, exhibits strong genetic interactions with factors necessary for promoter melting. Sub1 localizes near the transcription bubble in vitro and binds to promoters in vivo dependent upon PIC assembly. In contrast, RPA localizes to transcribed regions of active genes, strongly correlated with transcribing RNApII but independently of replication. RFA1 interacts genetically with transcription elongation factor genes. Interestingly, RPA levels increase at active promoters in cells carrying a Sub1 deletion or ssDNA binding mutant, suggesting competition for a common binding site. We propose that Sub1 and RPA interact with the non-template strand of RNApII complexes during initiation and elongation, respectively. Chip-chip from wt and sub1D cells with Rfa1 Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of Rfa1 in wt and sub1D yeast demonstrated that Rfa1 localization correlates with RNA Polymerase II and is increased at some transcription start sites when Sub1 has been deleted. Comparison of Rfa1 localization in wt vs sub1D yeast

Mechanisms of insertions at a double strand break

Project description:Insertions and deletions (indels) are common sources of structural variation, and insertions originating from spontaneous DNA lesions are frequent in cancer. We developed a highly sensitive assay (Indel-Seq) to monitor rearrangements in human cells at the TRIM37 acceptor locus that reports indels stemming from experimentallyinduced and spontaneous genome instability. Templated insertions, which derive from sequences genome-wide, require contact between donor and acceptor loci, homologous recombination, and are stimulated by DNA end-processing. Insertions are facilitated by transcription and involve a DNA/RNA hybrid intermediate. Indel-Seq reveals that insertions are generated via multiple pathways. The broken acceptor site anneals with a resected DNA break or invades the displaced strand of a transcription bubble or R-loop followed by DNA synthesis, displacement and then ligation by nonhomologous end-joining. Our studies identify transcription-coupled insertions as a critical source of spontaneous genome instability that are distinct from cut-and-paste events

Genome-wide ChIP-chip Rad50 in early S-phase in the presence of hydroxyurea

Project description:The Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 (MRX) complex is related to SMC complexes that form rings capable of holding two distinct DNA strands together. MRX functions at stalled replication forks and double-strand breaks (DSB). A mutation in the N-terminal OB-fold of the 70-kD subunit of yeast replication protein A, rfa1-t11, abrogates MRX recruitment to both types of damage. The rfa1 mutation is functionally epistatic with loss of any of the MRX subunits for survival of replication fork stress or DSB recovery, although it does not compromise end resection. High resolution imaging shows that either the rfa1-t11 or the rad50 mutation lets stalled replication forks collapse, and allows the separation not only of opposing ends, but of sister chromatids at breaks. Given that cohesin loss does not provoke visible sister separation as long as the RPA -MRX contacts are intact, we conclude that MRX also serves as a structural lynchpin of sister chromatids at breaks. Rad50 is a member of the Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 (MRX) complex which is known to associate to replication forks under hydroxyurea-stress condition. Using ChIP-chip, we show that MRX recruitment to replication forks partially rely on Rfa1 (RPA) at the genome-wide level.

RPA accumulation during class switch recombination represents 5'-3' DNA end resection during the S-G2/M phase of the cell cycle

Project description:AID promotes chromosomal translocations by inducing DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) at immunoglobulin (Ig) genes and oncogenes in G1. RPA is a ssDNA-binding protein that associates with resected DSBs in the S phase and facilitates the assembly of factors involved in homologous repair (HR) such as Rad51. Notably, RPA deposition also marks sites of AID-mediated damage, but its role in Ig gene recombination remains unclear. Here we demonstrate that RPA associates asymmetrically with resected ssDNA in response to lesions created by AID, RAG, or other nucleases. Small amounts of RPA are deposited at AID targets in G1 in an ATM-dependent manner. In contrast, recruitment in S-G2/M is extensive, ATM-independent, and associated with Rad51 accumulation. RPA in S-G2/M increases in NHEJ-deficient lymphocytes, where there is more extensive DNA-end resection. Thus, most RPA recruitment during CSR represents salvage of un-repaired breaks by homology-based pathways during the S-G2/M phases of the cell cycle. Chip-Seq of RPA from mouse activated B cells (n = 40), mouse thymocytes (n = 6), and MEFs (n = 1). Different genotypes and/or inhibitors were used.

SAMHD1 restrains aberrant nucleotide insertions at repair junctions generated by DNA end joining

Project description:Aberrant end joining of DNA double strand breaks leads to chromosomal rearrangements and to insertion of nuclear or mitochondrial DNA into breakpoints, which is commonly observed in cancer cells and constitutes a major threat to genome integrity. However, the mechanisms that are causative for these insertions are largely unknown. By monitoring end joining of different linear DNA substrates introduced into HEK293 cells, as well as by examining end joining of CRISPR/Cas9 induced DNA breaks in HEK293 and HeLa cells, we provide evidence that the dNTPase activity of SAMHD1 impedes aberrant DNA resynthesis at DNA breaks during DNA end joining. Hence, SAMHD1 expression or low intracellular dNTP levels lead to shorter repair joints and impede insertion of distant DNA regions prior end repair. Our results reveal a novel role for SAMHD1 in DNA end joining and provide new insights into how loss of SAMHD1 may contribute to genome instability and cancer development.

Ku70 and Ligase IV deficiencies reveal distinct alternative end-joining outcomes in G1-arrested progenitor B cells

Project description:Classical nonhomologous end-joining (C-NHEJ) repairs DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs) throughout interphase but is thought to predominate in G1-phase when homologous recombination is unavailable. Complexes containing the Ku70/80 ("Ku") and XRCC4/Ligase IV (Lig4) core C-NHEJ factors are required, respectively, for sensing and joining DSBs. While such factors are exclusively required for joining RAG1/2-initiated DSBs during V(D)J recombination in G1-phase lymphocyte progenitors, cycling cells deficient for core C-NHEJ factors join chromosomal DSBs by alternative end-joining (A-EJ) pathways. Restriction of V(D)J recombination to C-NHEJ has been attributed to RAG-mediated exclusion of A-EJ; however, it remains unclear whether A-EJ is similarly excluded from more general DSBs in G1. Here, we report that Ku actively and robustly suppresses A-EJ of RAG1/2 and two classes of engineered endonuclease-mediated DSBs in G1-arrested progenitor B cell lines. Thus, while targeted DSBs remain as free broken ends in Lig4-deficient G1-arrested progenitor B cells, deletion of Ku70 in Lig4-deficient cells restores DSB rejoining and translocation to levels observed in Ku70-deficient counterparts. Correspondingly, while V(D)J recombination is abrogated in Ligase4-deficient lines, V(D)J-like joining occurs in Ku70-deficient and Ku70/Lig4 double-deficient lines through a translocation-based A-EJ mechanism. We conclude that in G1, Lig4-deficient progenitor B cells are functionally end-joining deficient due to a near complete Ku-dependent block in A-EJ. Thus, the differential impacts of Ku deficiency versus XRCC4/Ligase IV deficiency on V(D)J recombination, severity of neuronal apoptosis, and embryonic development, including Ku-deficiency rescuing Lig4-deficient embryonic lethality, may be explained by Ku-mediated inhibition of A-EJ in the G1 cell cycle phase.

The impact of DNA-PKcs in V(D)J recombination of mouse IgK antigen locus

Project description:DNA-PKcs is a critical component of the non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway, playing a role in the re-ligation of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) generated by RAG1/2 during V(D)J recombination in antigen loci. When NHEJ is deficient, DSBs can be repaired through alternative end joining (A-EJ). In this study, we investigated the consequences of DNA-PKcs deletion on V-J recombination at the IgK antigen locus. Our results reveal that DNA-PKcs deletion leads to inefficient V-J recombination, exhibiting phenotypes such as reduced efficiency, increased end resection, and decreased micro-insertions in the repair pattern. These findings are consistent with previously reported functions of Ku70, another key player in NHEJ. However, unlike Ku70, additional deletion of DNA-PKcs does not restore the efficiency of repair in the absence of Lig4. Instead, it reduces both end resection and microhomology-mediated repair. These observations highlight the context-dependent role of DNA-PKcs in end processing. The presence or absence of Lig4 appears to influence the function of DNA-PKcs, further emphasizing the intricate interplay between repair factors in the DNA damage response. Overall, our findings provide insights into the distinct functions of DNA-PKcs and Ku70 in V(D)J recombination and underscore the complex regulatory mechanisms underlying repair efficiency in different genetic backgrounds.
