RESUMO

DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair is initiated by DNA end resection. CtIP acts in short-range resection to stimulate MRE11-RAD50-NBS1 (MRN) to endonucleolytically cleave 5'-terminated DNA to bypass protein blocks. CtIP also promotes the DNA2 helicase-nuclease to accelerate long-range resection downstream from MRN. Here, using AlphaFold2, we identified CtIP-F728E-Y736E as a separation-of-function mutant that is still proficient in conjunction with MRN but is not able to stimulate ssDNA degradation by DNA2. Accordingly, CtIP-F728E-Y736E impairs physical interaction with DNA2. Cellular assays revealed that CtIP-F728E-Y736E cells exhibit reduced DSB-dependent chromatin-bound RPA, impaired long-range resection, and increased sensitivity to DSB-inducing drugs. Previously, CtIP was shown to be targeted by PLK1 to inhibit long-range resection, yet the underlying mechanism was unclear. We show that the DNA2-interacting region in CtIP includes the PLK1 target site at S723. The integrity of S723 in CtIP is necessary for the stimulation of DNA2, and phosphorylation of CtIP by PLK1 in vitro is consequently inhibitory, explaining why PLK1 restricts long-range resection. Our data support a model in which CDK-dependent phosphorylation of CtIP activates resection by MRN in S phase, and PLK1-mediated phosphorylation of CtIP disrupts CtIP stimulation of DNA2 to attenuate long-range resection later at G2/M.

RESUMO

During repair of DNA double-strand breaks, resection of DNA ends influences how these lesions will be repaired. If resection is activated, the break will be channeled through homologous recombination; if not, it will be simply ligated using the non-homologous end-joining machinery. Regulation of resection relies greatly on modulating CtIP, which can be done by modifying: i) its interaction partners, ii) its post-translational modifications, or iii) its cellular levels, by regulating transcription, splicing and/or protein stability/degradation. Here, we have analyzed the role of ALC1, a chromatin remodeler previously described as an integral part of the DNA damage response, in resection. Strikingly, we found that ALC1 affects resection independently of chromatin remodeling activity or its ability to bind damaged chromatin. In fact, it cooperates with the RNA-helicase eIF4A1 to help stabilize the most abundant splicing form of CtIP mRNA. This function relies on the presence of a specific RNA sequence in the 5' UTR of CtIP. Therefore, we describe an additional layer of regulation of CtIP-at the level of mRNA stability through ALC1 and eIF4A1.

RESUMO

The fine tuning of the DNA double strand break repair pathway choice relies on different regulatory layers that respond to environmental and local cues. Among them, the presence of non-canonical nucleic acids structures seems to create challenges for the repair of nearby DNA double strand breaks. In this review, we focus on the recently published effects of G-quadruplexes and R-loops on DNA end resection and homologous recombination. Finally, we hypothesized a connection between those two atypical DNA structures in inhibiting the DNA end resection step of HR.

RESUMO

DNA breaks are complex lesions that can be repaired either by non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) or by homologous recombination (HR). The decision between these two routes of DNA repair is a key point of the DNA damage response (DDR) that is controlled by DNA resection. The core machinery catalyzing the resection process is well established. However, little is known about the additional requirements of DNA resection over DNA structures with high complexity. Here, we found evidence that the human helicase PIF1 has a role in DNA resection, specifically for defined DNA regions, such as those prone to form G-quadruplexes. Indeed, PIF1 is recruited to the site of DNA damage and physically interacts with proteins involved in DNA resection, and its depletion causes DNA damage sensitivity and a reduction of HR efficiency. Moreover, G4 stabilization by itself hampers DNA resection, a phenomenon suppressed by PIF1 overexpression.
