Fanconi anemia (FA) is characterized by developmental abnormalities, bone marrow failure, and cancer predisposition. FA cells are hypersensitive to DNA replicative stress and accumulate co-transcriptional R-loops. Here, we use the Damage At RNA Transcription assay to reveal colocalization of FANCD2 with R-loops in a highly transcribed genomic locus upon DNA damage. We further demonstrate that highly purified human FANCI-FANCD2 (ID2) complex binds synthetic single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) and R-loop substrates with high affinity, preferring guanine-rich sequences. Importantly, we elucidate that human ID2 binds an R-loop structure via recognition of the displaced ssDNA and ssRNA but not the RNA:DNA hybrids. Finally, a series of RNA and R-loop substrates are found to strongly stimulate ID2 monoubiquitination, with activity corresponding to their binding affinity. In summary, our results support a mechanism whereby the ID2 complex suppresses the formation of pathogenic R-loops by binding ssRNA and ssDNA species, thereby activating the FA pathway.

Global nonprofit biological resource center (BRC) and research organization that provides biological products, technical services and educational programs to private industry, government and academic organizations. Its mission is to acquire, authenticate, preserve, develop and distribute biological materials, information, technology, intellectual property and standards for the advancement and application of scientific knowledge. The primary purpose of ATCC is to use its resources and experience as a BRC to become the world leader in standard biological reference materials management, intellectual property resource management and translational research as applied to biomaterial development, standardization and certification. ATCC characterizes cell lines, bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, as well as develops and evaluates assays and techniques for validating research resources and preserving and distributing biological materials to the public and private sector research communities.

View all literature mentionsTHIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on May 5,2022.Tool that predicts interactions between transcription factors and their regulated genes from binding motifs. Understanding vertebrate development requires unraveling the cis-regulatory architecture of gene regulation. PRISM provides accurate genome-wide computational predictions of transcription factor binding sites for the human and mouse genomes, and integrates the predictions with GREAT to provide functional biological context. Together, accurate computational binding site prediction and GREAT produce for each transcription factor: 1. putative binding sites, 2. putative target genes, 3. putative biological roles of the transcription factor, and 4. putative cis-regulatory elements through which the factor regulates each target in each functional role.
