RESUMO
Non-membrane compartments or biomolecular condensates play an important role in the regulation of cellular processes including DNA repair. Here, an ability of XRCC1, a scaffold protein involved in DNA base excision repair (BER) and single-strand break repair, to form protein-rich microphases in the presence of DNA duplexes was discovered. We also showed that the gap-filling activity of BER-related DNA polymerase λ (Pol λ) is significantly increased by the presence of XRCC1. The stimulation of the Pol λ activity was observed only at micromolar XRCC1 concentrations, which were well above the nanomolar dissociation constant determined for the XRCC1-Pol λ complex and pointed to the presence of an auxiliary stimulatory factor in addition to protein-protein interactions. Indeed, according to dynamic light scattering measurements, the stimulation of the Pol λ activity by XRCC1 was coupled with microphase separation in a protein-DNA mixture. Fluorescence microscopy revealed colocalization of Pol λ, XRCC1, and gapped DNA within the microphases. Thus, stimulation of Pol λ activity is caused both by its interaction with XRCC1 and by specific conditions of microphase separation; this phenomenon is shown for the first time.

DNA-protein crosslinks (DPC) are common DNA lesions induced by various external and endogenous agents. One of the sources of DPC is the apurinic/apyrimidinic site (AP site) and proteins interacting with it. Some proteins possessing AP lyase activity form covalent complexes with AP site-containing DNA without borohydride reduction (suicidal crosslinks). We have shown earlier that tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) but not AP endonuclease 1 (APE1) is able to remove intact OGG1 from protein-DNA adducts, whereas APE1 is able to prevent the formation of DPC by hydrolyzing the AP site. Here we demonstrate that TDP1 can remove intact PARP2 but not XRCC1 from covalent enzyme-DNA adducts with AP-DNA formed in the absence of APE1. We also analyzed an impact of APE1 and TDP1 on the efficiency of DPC formation in APE1-/- or TDP1-/- cell extracts. Our data revealed that APE1 depletion leads to increased levels of PARP1-DNA crosslinks, whereas TDP1 deficiency has little effect on DPC formation.
RESUMO
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the most universal repair pathway, which removes a wide range of DNA helix-distorting lesions caused by chemical or physical agents. The final steps of this repair process are gap-filling repair synthesis and subsequent ligation. XPA is the central NER scaffolding protein factor and can be involved in post-incision NER stages. Replication machinery is loaded after the first incision of the damaged strand that is performed by the XPF-ERCC1 nuclease forming a damaged 5'-flap processed by the XPG endonuclease. Flap endonuclease I (FEN1) is a critical component of replication machinery and is absolutely indispensable for the maturation of newly synthesized strands. FEN1 also contributes to the long-patch pathway of base excision repair. Here, we use a set of DNA substrates containing a fluorescently labeled 5'-flap and different size gap to analyze possible repair factor-replication factor interactions. Ternary XPA-FEN1-DNA complexes with each tested DNA are detected. Furthermore, we demonstrate XPA-FEN1 complex formation in the absence of DNA due to protein-protein interaction. Functional assays reveal that XPA moderately inhibits FEN1 catalytic activity. Using fluorescently labeled XPA, formation of ternary RPA-XPA-FEN1 complex, where XPA accommodates FEN1 and RPA contacts simultaneously, can be proposed. We discuss possible functional roles of the XPA-FEN1 interaction in NER related DNA resynthesis and/or other DNA metabolic processes where XPA can be involved in the complex with FEN1.

Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a central DNA repair pathway responsible for removing a wide variety of DNA-distorting lesions from the genome. The highly choreographed cascade of core NER reactions requires more than 30 polypeptides. The xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) protein plays an essential role in the NER process. XPA interacts with almost all NER participants and organizes the correct NER repair complex. In the absence of XPA's scaffolding function, no repair process occurs. In this review, we briefly summarize our current knowledge about the XPA protein structure and analyze the formation of contact with its protein partners during NER complex assembling. We focus on different ways of regulation of the XPA protein's activity and expression and pay special attention to the network of post-translational modifications. We also discuss the data that is not in line with the currently accepted hypothesis about the functioning of the XPA protein.

DNA polymerases ß (Pol ß) and λ (Pol λ) belong to one structural family (X family) and possess the same enzymatic activities. Nonetheless, these enzymes have differences in their catalytic efficiency and specificity. We have previously reported that these enzymes can bypass bulky benzo[a]pyrene-DNA adducts via translesion synthesis during gap-filling reactions, although efficiency and specificity are dependent on the reaction conditions and adduct conformation. In the present study, we analyzed structural features of Pols ß and λ complexed with a gapped DNA duplex containing either cis- or trans-benzo[a]pyrene-diol epoxide-N2-dG (BP-dG) using molecular dynamics simulations. It was found that the most pronounced structural difference lies in the positioning of the trans-BP-dG residue relative to secondary structures of the protein; this dissimilarity may explain the differences between Pols ß and λ in gap-filling/translesion synthesis. In the case of Pol ß, trans-BP-dG turned out to be positioned parallel to the α-helix and ß-sheet. In the Pol λ complex, trans-BP-dG is perpendicular to the α-helix. This difference persisted throughout the molecular dynamics trajectory. Selectivity for the BP-dG isomers remained after a deletion of noncatalytic domains of Pol λ. Modeling of Pol λ or ß complexes with cis-BP-dG-containing DNA in the presence of Mn2+ either at both metal-binding sites or at the catalytic site only revealed that for both enzymes, the model of the complex containing both Mg2+ and Mn2+ is stabler than that containing two Mn2+ ions. This observation may reflect a shared property of these enzymes: the preference for Mn2+ in terms of catalysis and for Mg2+ regarding triphosphate coordination during the translesion reaction.

Replication protein A (RPA), eukaryotic single-stranded DNA-binding protein, is a key player in multiple processes of DNA metabolism including DNA replication, recombination and DNA repair. Human RPA composed of subunits of 70-, 32- and 14-kDa binds ssDNA with high affinity and interacts specifically with multiple proteins. The RPA heterotrimer binds ssDNA in several modes, with occlusion lengths of 8-10, 13-22 and 30 nucleotides corresponding to global, transitional and elongated conformations of protein. Varying the structure of photoreactive DNA, the intermediates of different stages of DNA replication or DNA repair were designed and applied to identify positioning of the RPA subunits on the specific DNA structures. Using this approach, RPA interactions with various types of DNA structures attributed to replication and DNA repair intermediates were examined. This review is dedicated to blessed memory of Prof. Alain Favre who contributed to the development of photoreactive nucleotide derivatives and their application for the study of protein-nucleic acids interactions.

Bifunctional 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (OGG1), a crucial DNA-repair enzyme, removes from DNA 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) with following cleavage of the arising apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site. The major enzyme in eukaryotic cells that catalyzes the cleavage of AP sites is AP endonuclease 1 (APE1). Alternatively, AP sites can be cleaved by tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) to initiate APE1-independent repair, thus expanding the ability of the base excision repair (BER) process. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a regulatory protein of DNA repair. PARP2 is also activated in response to DNA damage and can be regarded as the BER participant. Here we analyze PARP1 and PARP2 interactions with DNA intermediates of the initial stages of the BER process (8-oxoG and AP-site containing DNA) and their interplay with the proteins recognizing and processing these DNA structures focusing on OGG1. OGG1 as well as PARP1 and PARP2 form covalent complex with AP site-containing DNA without borohydride reduction. AP site incision by APE1 or TDP1 removal of protein adducts but not proteins' PARylation prevent DNA-protein crosslinks.
RESUMO
Replication protein A contributes to all major pathways of DNA metabolism and is a target for post-translation modifications, including poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation catalyzed by PARP1. Here we demonstrate that the efficiency of RPA poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation strongly depends on the structure of DNA used for PARP1 activation and on the polarity of RPA binding. Moreover, RPA influences PARP1 activity, and this effect also depends on DNA structure: RPA inhibits PAR synthesis catalyzed by PARP1 in the presence of ssDNA and stimulates it in the presence of a DNA duplex, in particular that containing a nick or a gap. Using fluorescently labeled proteins, we showed their direct interaction and characterized it quantitatively. RPA can accelerate the replacement of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated PARP1 molecules bound to DNA by the unmodified ones. Thus, our data allow us to suggest that the balance between the affinities of PARP1 and RPA for DNA and the interaction of these proteins with each other are the cornerstone of the modulating effect of RPA on PARP1 activity. This effect might contribute to the regulation of PARP1 activity in various DNA processing mechanisms including DNA replication and repair pathways, where both PARP1 and RPA participate.

Replication protein A (RPA) and the xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) protein are indispensable for both pathways of nucleotide excision repair (NER). Here we analyze the interaction of RPA and XPA with DNA containing a flap and different size gaps that imitate intermediates of the late NER stages. Using gel mobility shift assays, we found that RPA affinity for DNA decreased when DNA contained both extended gap and similar sized flap in comparison with gapped-DNA structure. Moreover, crosslinking experiments with the flap-gap DNA revealed that RPA interacts mainly with the ssDNA platform within the long gap and contacts flap in DNA with a short gap. XPA exhibits higher affinity for bubble-DNA structures than to flap-gap-containing DNA. Protein titration analysis showed that formation of the RPA-XPA-DNA ternary complex depends on the protein concentration ratio and these proteins can function as independent players or in tandem. Using fluorescently-labelled RPA, direct interaction of this protein with XPA was detected and characterized quantitatively. The data obtained allow us to suggest that XPA can be involved in the post-incision NER stages via its interaction with RPA.

The major enzyme in eukaryotic cells that catalyzes the cleavage of apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP or abasic) sites is AP endonuclease 1 (APE1) that cleaves the phosphodiester bond on the 5'-side of AP sites. We found that the efficiency of AP site cleavage by APE1 was affected by the benzo[a]pyrenyl-DNA adduct (BPDE-dG) in the opposite strand. AP sites directly opposite of the modified dG or shifted toward the 5' direction were hydrolyzed by APE1 with an efficiency moderately lower than the AP site in the control DNA duplex, whereas AP sites shifted toward the 3' direction were hydrolyzed significantly less efficiently. For all DNA structures except DNA with the AP site shifted by 3 nucleotides in the 3' direction (AP+3-BP-DNA), hydrolysis was more efficient in the case of (+)-trans-BPDE-dG. Using molecular dynamic simulation, we have shown that in the complex of APE1 with the AP+3-BP-DNA, the BP residue is located within the DNA bend induced by APE1 and contacts the amino acids in the enzyme catalytic center and the catalytic metal ion. The geometry of the APE1 active site is perturbed more significantly by the trans-isomer of BPDE-dG that intercalates into the APE1-DNA complex near the cleaved phosphodiester bond. The ability of DNA polymerases ß (Polß), λ and ι to catalyze gap-filling synthesis in cooperation with APE1 was also analyzed. Polß was shown to inhibit the 3'â5' exonuclease activity of APE1 when both enzymes were added simultaneously and to insert the correct nucleotide into the gap arising after AP site hydrolysis. Therefore, further evidence for the functional cooperation of APE1 and Polß in base excision repair was obtained.

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) processes DNA 3'-end-blocking modifications, possesses DNA and RNA 3'-nucleosidase activity and is also able to hydrolyze an internal apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site and its synthetic analogs. The mechanism of Tdp1 interaction with DNA was analyzed using pre-steady state stopped-flow kinetics with tryptophan, 2-aminopurine and Förster resonance energy transfer fluorescence detection. Phosphorothioate or tetramethyl phosphoryl guanidine groups at the 3'-end of DNA have been used to prevent 3'-nucleosidase digestion by Tdp1. DNA binding and catalytic properties of Tdp1 and its mutants H493R (Tdp1 mutant SCAN1) and H263A have been compared. The data indicate that the initial step of Tdp1 interaction with DNA includes binding of Tdp1 to the DNA ends followed by the 3'-nucleosidase reaction. In the case of DNA containing AP site, three steps of fluorescence variation were detected that characterize (i) initial binding the enzyme to the termini of DNA, (ii) the conformational transitions of Tdp1 and (iii) search for and recognition of the AP-site in DNA, which leads to the formation of the catalytically active complex and to the AP-site cleavage reaction. Analysis of Tdp1 interaction with single- and double-stranded DNA substrates shows that the rates of the 3'-nucleosidase and AP-site cleavage reactions have similar values in the case of single-stranded DNA, whereas in double-stranded DNA, the cleavage of the AP-site proceeds two times faster than 3'-nucleosidase digestion. Therefore, the data show that the AP-site cleavage reaction is an essential function of Tdp1 which may comprise an independent of AP endonuclease 1 AP-site repair pathway.

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) promotes catalytic scission of a phosphodiester bond between the 3'-end of DNA and the hydroxyl group of a tyrosine residue, as well as cleaving off a variety of other 3'-terminal phosphate-linked DNA substituents. We have shown recently that Tdp1 can initiate an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site repair pathway that is independent from the one mediated by AP endonuclease 1 (APE1). Until recently, there was no method available of tracking the AP-site cleaving activity of Tdp1 by real-time fluorescence assay. In the present study we demonstrate a highly specific real-time detection of the AP-site cleaving activity of Tdp1 which allows one to distinguish it from the activity of APE1 by using a short hairpin oligonucleotide with a 1,12-dodecanediol loop, a 5'-fluorophore, and a 3'-quencher. Specific phosphodiesterase activity of Tdp1, which is usually able to remove quencher from the 3'-end of DNA, was suppressed in our approach by introducing a noncleavable phosphate group mimic between the 3'-end and the quencher. As a nondigestible 3'-phosphate analogue, we have used a new uncharged tetramethyl phosphoryl guanidine (Tmg) group, which is resistant to 3'-phosphodiesterase cleavage.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation is a reversible post-translational modification that plays an essential role in many cellular processes, including regulation of DNA repair. Cellular DNA damage response by the synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) is mediated mainly by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1). The XPC-RAD23B complex is one of the key factors of nucleotide excision repair participating in the primary DNA damage recognition. By using several biochemical approaches, we have analyzed the influence of PARP1 and PAR synthesis on the interaction of XPC-RAD23B with damaged DNA. Free PAR binds to XPC-RAD23B with an affinity that depends on the length of the poly(ADP-ribose) strand and competes with DNA for protein binding. Using (32)P-labeled NAD(+) and immunoblotting, we also demonstrate that both subunits of the XPC-RAD23B are poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated by PARP1. The efficiency of XPC-RAD23B PARylation depends on DNA structure and increases after UV irradiation of DNA. Therefore, our study clearly shows that XPC-RAD23B is a target of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation catalyzed by PARP1, which can be regarded as a universal regulator of DNA repair processes.

The influence of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 (PARP1) on the apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP)-site cleavage activity of tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) and interaction of PARP1 and TDP1 were studied. The efficiency of single or clustered AP-site hydrolysis catalysed by TDP1 was estimated. It was shown that the efficiency of AP-site cleavage increases in the presence of an additional AP-site in the opposite DNA strand depending on its position. PARP1 stimulates TDP1; the stimulation effect was abolished in the presence of NAD(+). The interaction of these two proteins was characterized quantitatively by measuring the dissociation constant for the TDP1-PARP1 complex using fluorescently-labelled proteins. The distance between the N-termini of the proteins within the complex was estimated using FRET. The data obtained suggest that PARP1 and TDP1 bind in an antiparallel orientation; the N-terminus of the former protein interacts with the C-terminal domain of the latter. The functional significance of PARP1 and TDP1 interaction in the process of DNA repair was demonstrated for the first time.

The combined action of oxidative stress and genotoxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons derivatives can lead to cluster-type DNA damage that includes both a modified nucleotide and a bulky lesion. As an example, we investigated the possibility of repair of an AP site located opposite a minor groove-positioned (+)-trans-BPDE-dG or a base-displaced intercalated (+)-cis-BPDE-dG adduct (BP lesion) by a BER system. Oligonucleotides with single uracil residue in the certain position were annealed with complementary oligonucleotides bearing either a cis- or trans-BP adduct. Digestion with uracil DNA glycosylase was utilized to generate an AP site which was then hydrolyzed by APE1, and the resulting gap was processed by X-family DNA polymerases ß (Polß) and λ (Polλ), or Y-family polymerase ι (Polι). By varying reaction conditions, namely, Mg2+/Mn2+ replacement/combination and ionic strength decrease, we found that under certain conditions both Polß and Polι can catalyze lesion bypass across both cis- and trans-BP adducts in the presence of physiological dNTP concentrations. Polß and Polι catalyze gap filling trans-lesion synthesis in an error prone manner. By contrast, Polλ selectively introduced the correct dCTP opposite the modified dG in the case of cis-BP-dG adduct only, and did not bypass the stereoisomeric trans-adduct under any of the conditions examined. The results suggest that Polλ is a specialized polymerase that can process these kinds of lesions.

The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. In this study, two types of DNA binding assays were used for the detailed analysis of interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that human and yeast orthologs behave similarly in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed using fluorescent depolarization measurements. The XPC-RAD23B and the Rad4-Rad23 proteins bind to the damaged 15 nt bubble-DNA structure mimicking in size the "transcription bubble" DNA intermediate with the highest affinity (KD values ~10(-10) M or less) that is reduced in the following order: damaged bubble > undamaged bubble > damaged duplex > undamaged duplex. The affinity of XPC/Rad4 for various DNAs was shown to correlate with DNA bending angle. The results obtained show clearly that more deviation from regular DNA structure leads to higher XPC/Rad4 affinity.

The mechanism of hydrolysis of the apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site and its synthetic analogs by using tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) was analyzed. Tdp1 catalyzes the cleavage of AP site and the synthetic analog of the AP site, 3-hydroxy-2(hydroxymethyl)-tetrahydrofuran (THF), in DNA by hydrolysis of the phosphodiester bond between the substituent and 5' adjacent phosphate. The product of Tdp1 cleavage in the case of the AP site is unstable and is hydrolyzed with the formation of 3'- and 5'-margin phosphates. The following repair demands the ordered action of polynucleotide kinase phosphorylase, with XRCC1, DNA polymerase ß, and DNA ligase. In the case of THF, Tdp1 generates break with the 5'-THF and the 3'-phosphate termini. Tdp1 is also able to effectively cleave non-nucleotide insertions in DNA, decanediol and diethyleneglycol moieties by the same mechanism as in the case of THF cleavage. The efficiency of Tdp1 catalyzed hydrolysis of AP-site analog correlates with the DNA helix distortion induced by the substituent. The following repair of 5'-THF and other AP-site analogs can be processed by the long-patch base excision repair pathway.

The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. The interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA was analyzed using model DNA duplexes containing a single fluorescein-substituted dUMP analog as a lesion. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed similarity between human and yeast proteins in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed by fluorescent depolarization measurements. XPC-RAD23B and Rad4-Rad23 proteins demonstrate approximately equal binding affinity to the damaged DNA duplex (K(D) â¼ (0.5 ± 0.1) and (0.6 ± 0.3) nM, respectively). Using photoreactive DNA containing 5-iodo-dUMP in defined positions, XPC/Rad4 location on damaged DNA was shown. Under conditions of equimolar binding to DNA both proteins exhibited the highest level of cross-links to 5I-dUMP located exactly opposite the damaged nucleotide. The positioning of the XPC and Rad4 proteins on damaged DNA by photocross-linking footprinting is consistent with x-ray analysis of the Rad4-DNA crystal complex. The identity of the XPC and Rad4 location illustrates the common principles of structure organization of DNA damage-scanning proteins from different Eukarya organisms.

Tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (Tdp1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the phosphodiester linkage between the DNA 3' phosphate and a tyrosine residue as well as a variety of other DNA 3' damaged termini. Recently we have shown that Tdp1 can liberate the 3' DNA phosphate termini from apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. Here, we found that Tdp1 is more active in the cleavage of the AP sites inside bubble-DNA structure in comparison to ssDNA containing AP site. Furthermore, Tdp1 hydrolyzes AP sites opposite to bulky fluorescein adduct faster than AP sites located in dsDNA. Whilst the Tdp1 H493R (SCAN1) and H263A mutants retain the ability to bind an AP site-containing DNA, both mutants do not reveal endonuclease activity, further suggesting the specificity of the AP cleavage activity. We suggest that this Tdp1 activity can contribute to the repair of AP sites particularly in DNA structures containing ssDNA region or AP sites in the context of clustered DNA lesions.

The combined action of oxidative stress and genotoxic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons derivatives can lead to cluster-type DNA damage that includes both a modified nucleotide and a bulky lesion. As an example, we investigated the possibility of repair of an AP site located opposite a minor groove-positioned (+)-trans-BPDE-dG or a base-displaced intercalated (+)-cis-BPDE-dG adduct (BP lesion) by a BER system. Oligonucleotides with single uracil residues in certain positions were annealed with complementary oligonucleotides bearing either a cis- or trans-BP adduct. The resulting DNA duplexes contained dU either directly opposite the modified dG or shifted to adjacent 5' (-1) or 3' (+1) positions. Digestion with uracil DNA glycosylase was utilized to generate AP sites which were then hydrolyzed by APE1, and the resulting gaps were processed by DNA polymerase ß (Polß) or λ (Polλ). The AP sites in position -1 can be repaired effectively using APE1 and Polß or Polλ. The AP sites opposite the BP lesions can be repaired using Polλ in the case of cis- but not the trans-isomeric adduct. The AP sites in position +1 are the most difficult to repair. In the case of the AP site located in position +1, the activity of Polλ does not depend on the stereoisomeric properties of the BP lesions and dCTP is the preferred inserted substrate in both cases. The capability of Polλ to introduce the correct dNTP opposite the cis-BP-dG adduct in gap filling reactions suggests that this polymerase may play a specialized role in the process of repair of these kinds of lesions.
