BAP1 promotes the repair of UV-induced DNA damage via PARP1-mediated recruitment to damage sites and control of activity and stability.

ABSTRACT: BRCA1-associated protein-1 (BAP1) is a ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase domain-containing deubiquitinase with tumor suppressor activity. The gene encoding BAP1 is mutated in various human cancers, with particularly high frequency in kidney and skin cancers, and BAP1 is involved in many cancer-related cellular functions, such as DNA repair and genome stability. Although BAP1 stimulates DNA double-strand break repair, whether it functions in nucleotide excision repair (NER) is unknown. Here, we show that BAP1 promotes the repair of ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage via its deubiquitination activity in various cell types, including primary melanocytes. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) interacts with and recruits BAP1 to damage sites, with BAP1 recruitment peaking after the DDB2 and XPC d
