PLK1 regulates CtIP and DNA2 interplay in long-range DNA end resection.

  • Ilaria Ceppi‎ et al.

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.


ADAR-mediated RNA editing of DNA:RNA hybrids is required for DNA double strand break repair.

  • Sonia Jimeno‎ et al.
  • Nature communications‎
  • 2021‎

The maintenance of genomic stability requires the coordination of multiple cellular tasks upon the appearance of DNA lesions. RNA editing, the post-transcriptional sequence alteration of RNA, has a profound effect on cell homeostasis, but its implication in the response to DNA damage was not previously explored. Here we show that, in response to DNA breaks, an overall change of the Adenosine-to-Inosine RNA editing is observed, a phenomenon we call the RNA Editing DAmage Response (REDAR). REDAR relies on the checkpoint kinase ATR and the recombination factor CtIP. Moreover, depletion of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR2 renders cells hypersensitive to genotoxic agents, increases genomic instability and hampers homologous recombination by impairing DNA resection. Such a role of ADAR2 in DNA repair goes beyond the recoding of specific transcripts, but depends on ADAR2 editing DNA:RNA hybrids to ease their dissolution.
