DNA damage-induced proteasome phosphorylation controls substrate recognition and facilitates DNA repair.

ABSTRACT: Upon DNA damage, numerous proteins are targeted for ubiquitin-dependent proteasomal degradation, which is an integral part of the DNA repair program. Although details of the ubiquitination processes have been intensively studied, little is known about whether and how the 26S proteasome is regulated in the DNA damage response (DDR). Here, we show that human Rpn10/PSMD4, one of the three ubiquitin receptors of the 26S proteasome, is rapidly phosphorylated in response to different types of DNA damage. The phosphorylation occurs at Rpn10-Ser266 within a conserved SQ motif recognized by ATM/ATR/DNA-PK. Blockade of S266 phosphorylation attenuates homologous recombination-mediated DNA repair and sensitizes cells to genotoxic insults. In vitro and in cellulo experiments indicate that phosphorylati
