RESUMEN

R loops are RNA-DNA hybrid containing structures involved in diverse cellular processes, including DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. R loop homeostasis involving the formation and resolution of R loops is critical for DSB repair, and its dysregulation leads to genome instability. Here we show that the HELZ helicase promotes R loop resolution to facilitate DSB repair by homologous recombination (HR). HELZ depletion causes hypersensitivity to DSB-inducing agents, and HELZ localizes and binds to DSBs. HELZ depletion further leads to genomic instability in a R loop dependent manner and the accumulation of R loops globally and at DSBs. HELZ binds to R loops in response to DSBs and promotes their resolution, thereby facilitating HR to promote genome integrity. Our findings thus define a role for HELZ in promoting the resolution of R loops critical for DSB repair by HR.
