An LRP16-containing preassembly complex contributes to NF-κB activation induced by DNA double-strand breaks.

ABSTRACT: The activation of NF-κB has emerged as an important mechanism for the modulation of the response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The concomitant SUMOylation and phosphorylation of IKKγ by PIASy and ATM, respectively, is a key event in this mechanism. However, the mechanism through which mammalian cells are able to accomplish these IKKγ modifications in a timely and lesion-specific manner remains unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that LRP16 constitutively interacts with PARP1 and IKKγ. This interaction is essential for efficient interactions among PARP1, IKKγ, and PIASy, the modifications of IKKγ, and the activation of NF-κB following DSB induction. The regulation of LRP16 in NF-κB activation is dependent on the DSB-specific sensors Ku70/Ku80. These data strongly suggest that LRP16
