CtIP-mediated DNA resection is dispensable for IgH class switch recombination by alternative end-joining

Project description:To generate antibodies with different effector functions, B cells undergo Immunoglobulin class switch recombination (CSR). The ligation step of CSR is usually mediated by the classical non-homologous end-joining (cNHEJ) pathway. In cNHEJ-deficient cells, a remarkable ~25% CSR can be achieved by the alternative end-joining (A-EJ) pathway that preferentially uses microhomology (MH) at the junctions. While A-EJ mediated repair of endonuclease generated breaks requires DNA end-resection, we show that CtIP-mediated DNA end-resection is dispensable for A-EJ-mediated CSR using cNHEJ-deficient B cells. High-throughput sequencing analyses revealed that loss of ATM/ATR phosphorylation of CtIP at T855 or ATM kinase inhibition suppress resection without altering the MH-pattern of the A-EJ-mediated switch junctions. Moreover, we found that ATM kinase promotes Alt-EJ mediated CSR by suppressing inter-chromosomal translocations independent of end-resection. Finally, temperol analyses reveal that MHs are enriched in early internal deletions even in cNHEJ-proficient B cells. Thus, we propose that repetitive IgH switch regions represent favoriate substrates for MH-mediated end-joining contributing to the robustness and resection-indepndence of A-EJ-mediated CSR.

DNA Double-strand Break Response Factors Influence End-joining Features of IgH Class Switch and General Translocation junctions

Project description:IgH class switch recombination (CSR) in B lymphocytes switches IgH constant regions to change antibody functions. CSR is initiated by DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) within a donor IgH switch (S) region and a downstream acceptor S region. CSR is completed by fusing donor and acceptor S region DSB ends by classical non-homologous end-joining (C-NHEJ) and, in its absence, by alternative end-joining (A-EJ) that is more biased to use longer junctional micro-homologies (MHs). Deficiency for DSB response (DSBR) factors, including ATM and 53BP1, variably impair CSR end-joining, with 53BP1 deficiency having the greatest impact. However, studies of potential impact of DSBR factor deficiencies on MH-mediated CSR end-joining have been technically limited. We now use a robust DSB joining assay to elucidate impacts of deficiencies for DSBR factors on CSR and chromosomal translocation junctions in primary mouse B cells and CH12F3 B lymphoma cells. Compared to wild-type, CSR and c-Myc to S region translocation junctions in the absence of 53BP1, and to a lesser extent other DSBR factors, have increased MH-utilization; indeed, 53BP1-deficient MH-profiles resemble those associated with C-NHEJ deficiency. Yet, translocation junctions between c-Myc DSB and general DSBs genome-wide are not MH-biased in ATM-deficient versus wild-type CH12F3 cells and less biased in 53BP1- and C-NHEJ-deficient cells than CSR junctions or c-Myc to S region translocation junctions. We discuss potential roles of DSBR factors in suppressing increased MH-mediated DSB end-joining and features of S regions that may render their DSBs prone to MH-biased end-joining in the absence of DSBR factors.

Loss of ZBTB24, a novel non-homologous end-joining protein, impairs class-switch recombination in ICF syndrome

Project description:The autosomal recessive immunodeficiency, centromeric instability and facial anomalies (ICF) syndrome is a genetically heterogeneous disorder. Despite recent successes in the identification of the underlying gene defects, it is currently unclear how mutations in any of the four known ICF genes cause a primary immunodeficiency. Here we demonstrate that loss of ZBTB24 in B cells from ICF2 patients impairs non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) during immunoglobulin class-switch recombination and consequently impairs immunoglobulin production and subtype balance. Mechanistically, we found that ZBTB24 associates with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) and stimulates auto-poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of this enzyme. The zinc finger in ZBTB24 binds PARP1-associated poly(ADP-ribose) chains and mediates the PARP1-dependent recruitment of ZBTB24 to DNA breaks. Moreover, by binding to poly(ADP-ribose) chains ZBTB24 protects these moieties from degradation by poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase (PARG). This enhances the poly(ADP-ribose)-dependent interaction between PARP1 and the LIG4/XRCC4 NHEJ complex and promotes NHEJ by facilitating the assembly of this repair complex at DNA breaks. Thus, we uncover ZBTB24 as a regulator of PARP1-dependent NHEJ and class-switch recombination, providing a molecular basis for the immunodeficiency in ICF syndrome.

DNA-PKcs phosphorylation at the T2609 cluster alters the repair pathway choice during immunoglobulin class switch recombination

Project description:The DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), which is composed of the KU heterodimer and the large catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs), is a classical non-homologous end-joining (cNHEJ) factor. Naïve B cells undergo class switch recombination (CSR) to generate antibodies with different isotypes by joining two DNA double-strand breaks at different switching regions via the cNHEJ pathway. DNA-PK and the cNHEJ pathway play important roles in the DNA repair phase of CSR. To initiate cNHEJ, KU binds to DNA ends and recruits and activates DNA-PK. Activated DNA-PK phosphorylates DNA-PKcs at the S2056 and T2609 clusters. Loss of T2609 cluster phosphorylation increases radiation sensitivity but whether T2609 phosphorylation has a role in physiological DNA repair remains elusive. Using the DNA-PKcs5A mouse model carrying alanine substitutions at the T2609 cluster, here we show that loss of T2609 phosphorylation of DNA-PKcs does not affect the CSR efficiency. Yet, the CSR junctions recovered from DNA-PKcs5A/5A B cells reveal increased chromosomal translocations, extensive use of distal switch regions (consistent with end-resection), and preferential usage of micro-homology – all signs of the alternative end-joining pathway. Thus, these results uncover a role of DNA-PKcs T2609 phosphorylation in promoting cNHEJ repair pathway choice during CSR.

SHLD1 is dispensable for 53BP1-dependent V(D)J recombination but critical for productive class switch recombination

Project description:The shieldin (SHLD) complex, composed of SHLD1, SHLD2, SHLD3 and MAD2L2/REV7, acts downstream of 53BP1 to counteract DNA double-strand break (DSB) end-resection and promote non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). While 53BP1 is essential for immunoglobulin heavy chain class switch recombination (CSR), long-range V(D)J recombination and for repair of RAG-induced DSBs in XLF-deficient cells, the role of SHLD in these activities remains elusive. Here, we report that contrary to 53BP1, SHLD1 is dispensable for lymphocyte development and V(D)J recombination, even in the sensitized XLF-deficient background or for the joining of distant V(D)J segments. By contrast, SHLD1 restricts resection at AID-induced DSB ends in both NHEJ-proficient and NHEJ-deficient B cells, providing an end-protection mechanism that permits productive CSR. Finally, we show that this end-protection function is required for orientation-specific joining of AID-initiated DSBs. We propose that 53BP1 promotes V(D)J recombination and CSR through two distinct mechanisms; the synapsis of V(D)J segments and switch regions within chromatin independently of SHLD and the protection of AID-DSB ends against resection mediated by SHLD.
