Replication-associated base excision repair/single-strand break repair regulates PARG inhibitor response via the PRMT1/PRMT5/ATR axis.

ABSTRACT: Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases 1 and 2 (PARP1/PARP2), and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG), modulate the level of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), a post-translational protein modification, in response to DNA damage or replication stress. Here, we find that replication-dependent and PARP1/PARP2-mediated PARylation recruits the base excision repair (BER)/single-strand break repair (SSBR) scaffold protein XRCC1 and the associated factors DNA polymerase β (POLB), aprataxin (APTX), and DNA ligase isoform 3 (LIG3). Further, these BER/SSBR proteins promote resistance to inhibitors of PARP1/PARP2 and PARG, as loss of these proteins sensitizes glioblastoma and ovarian cancer cells to each. In addition, depletion of these replication-associated BER/SSBR factors leads to enhanced PAR levels and PARG inhi
