Analysis of UV-induced DNA damage in human cells using CPD-seq 2.0

ABSTRACT: Noncoding mutation hotspots have been identified in melanoma and many of them occur at the binding sites of E26 transformation-specific (ETS) proteins; however, their formation mechanism and functional impacts are not fully understood. Here, we used UV damage sequencing data and analyzed cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) formation, DNA repair, and CPD deamination in human cells at single-nucleotide resolution. Our data shows prominent CPD hotspots immediately after UV irradiation at ETS binding sites, particularly at sites with a conserved TTCCGG motif, which correlate with mutation hotspots identified in cutaneous melanoma. Additionally, CPDs are repaired slower at ETS binding sites than in flanking DNA. Cytosine deamination in CPDs to uracil is suggested as an important step for UV mutagenesis. However, we found that CPD deamination is significantly suppressed at ETS binding sites, particularly for the CPD hotspot on the 5’ side of the ETS motif, arguing against a role for CPD deamination in promoting ETS-associated UV mutations. Finally, we analyzed a subset of frequently mutated promoters, including the ribosomal protein genes RPL13A and RPS20, and found that mutations in the ETS motif can significantly reduce the promoter activity. Thus, our data identifies high UV damage and low repair, but not CPD deamination, as the main mechanism for ETS-associated mutations in melanoma and uncover new roles of often-overlooked mutation hotspots in perturbing gene transcription.

CPD-seq map of UV damage formation in human fibroblasts

Project description:UV light is an initiating factor in the etiology of human melanoma due to its production of mutagenic DNA photoproducts, primarily cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and 6-4 photoproducts. UV-induced mutations are heterogeneously distributed across melanoma genomes, being enriched, for example, in regions of compact heterochromatin and at active transcription factor binding sites (TFBS). Differential ability of nucleotide excision repair (NER) to remove UV-induced DNA lesions in these regions has been proposed as the primary factor establishing the observed regional differences in melanoma mutation density. However, it is not fully understood to what extent the binding of transcription factors and chromatin structure affect UV damage formation, nor how variations in initial damage levels contribute to mutagenesis. Here, we directly mapped sites of CPD formation across the genome in human cells, and show that variations in UV damage formation, due to primary chromatin structure and transcription factor binding, are strongly correlated with local differences in melanoma mutation density. Analysis of individual transcription factors revealed that the E26 transformation-specific (ETS) family is the major contributor to increased somatic mutation density at TFBS in melanoma, primarily because DNA binding by ETS family transcription factors stimulates the formation of CPD lesions, generating UV damage 'hotspots'. Moreover, many ETS binding sites, including those associated with known cancer genes, are recurrently mutated in human melanomas. These findings establish variable lesion formation as a key contributor to mutation heterogeneity in cancer.

Elevated pyrimidine dimer formation at distinct genomic bases underlies promoter mutation hotspots in UV-exposed cancers

Project description:Sequencing of whole cancer genomes has revealed an abundance of recurrent mutations in gene-regulatory promoter regions, in particular in melanoma where strong mutation hotspots are observed adjacent to ETS-family transcription factor (TF) binding sites. While sometimes interpreted as functional driver events, these mutations are commonly believed to be due to locally inhibited DNA repair. Here, we first show that low-dose UV light induces mutations preferably at a known ETS promoter hotspot in cultured cells even in the absence of global or transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (NER). Further, by genome-wide mapping of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) shortly after UV exposure and thus before DNA repair, we find that ETS-related mutation hotspots exhibit strong increases in CPD formation efficacy in a manner consistent with tumor mutation data at the single-base level. Analysis of a large whole genome cohort illustrates the widespread contribution of this effect to recurrent mutations in melanoma. While inhibited NER underlies a general increase in somatic mutation burden in regulatory elements including ETS sites, our data supports that elevated DNA damage formation at specific genomic bases is at the core of the prominent promoter mutation hotspots seen in skin cancers, thus explaining a key phenomenon in whole-genome cancer analyses.

Melanoma mutations are caused by deamination of cytosine in pyrimidine dimers

Project description:The majority of sunlight-associated melanomas carry a unique UV-related C to T mutation signature at dipyrimidine sites. UVB radiation is known to induce cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) as the major form of DNA damage, but the mechanism of how these DNA lesions lead to mutations is unknown. To map the genome-wide distribution of CPDs at single base resolution, we developed a new method, circle damage sequencing (circle-damage-seq). We found that in human cells CPDs form in a specific tetranucleotide sequence context (5’PyPy<>PyT/A), but this alone does not explain the mutation patterns. To test whether mutations arise at CPDs by cytosine deamination, we next applied a modification of circle-damage-seq and mapped UVB-induced cytosine-deaminated CPDs. We observed that the transcription start sites (TSS) are the sequences most protected from CPDs and deaminated CPDs. The strongest spike of CPDs and deaminated CPD lesions was found immediately upstream of the TSS, suggesting a mutation-promoting role of bound transcription factors. Most significantly, the genome-wide dinucleotide and trinucleotide sequence specificity of deaminated CPDs matched the prominent mutation signature found in melanomas. Our data identifies the cytosine-deaminated CPD as the leading premutagenic lesion responsible for the vast majority of mutations in sun-exposure-linked melanomas.

Genomic Sites Ultrasensitive to Ultraviolet Radiation

Project description:If the genome contains outlier sequences extraordinarily sensitive to environmental agents, these would be sentinels for monitoring personal carcinogen exposure and might drive direct changes in cell physiology rather than acting through rare mutations. New methods, adductSeq and freqSeq, provided statistical resolution to quantify rare lesions at single-base resolution across the genome. Primary human melanocytes, but not fibroblasts, carried spontaneous apurinic sites and TG sequence lesions more frequently than UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs). UV exposure revealed hyperhotspots acquiring CPDs up to 170 fold more frequently than the genomic average; these sites were more prevalent in melanocytes. Hyperhotspots were disproportionately located near genes, particularly for RNA-binding proteins, with the most-recurrent hyperhotspots at a fixed position within two motifs: one occurring at ETS1 transcription factor binding sites, known to be UV targets, and at sites of mTOR/TOP-tract translation regulation; the second occurring at A2-15TTCTY, which developed "dark CPDs" after UV exposure, repaired CPDs slowly, and had accumulated CPDs prior to the experiment. Motif locations active as hyperhotspots differed between cell types. Melanocyte CPD hyperhotspots aligned precisely with recurrent UV signature mutations in individual gene promoters of melanomas and with known cancer drivers. At sunburn levels of UV exposure, every cell would have a hyperhotspot CPD in each of the ~20 targeted cell pathways, making hyperhotspots act as epigenetic marks. Purpose: These experiments searched for genomic sites in human primary fibroblasts and melanocytes that are extraordinarily sensitive to DNA damage, primarily cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) induced by UVC or UVB radiation. They separately detected abasic sites and other spontaneous DNA damage when present.

CPD-seq mapping of UV damage formation and repair in yeast

Project description:UV-induced DNA lesions are an important contributor to mutagenesis and cancer, but it is not fully understood how the chromosomal landscape influences UV lesion formation and repair. We have used a novel high-throughput sequencing method to precisely map UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) at nucleotide resolution throughout the yeast genome. Analysis of CPD formation reveals that nucleosomal DNA having an inward rotational setting is protected from CPD lesions. In strongly positioned nucleosomes, this nucleosome 'photofootprint' overrides intrinsic dipyrimidine sequence preferences for CPD formation. CPD formation is also inhibited by DNA-bound transcription factors, in effect protecting important DNA elements from UV damage. Analysis of CPD repair revealed a clear signature of efficient transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair. Repair was less efficient at translational positions near a nucleosome dyad and at heterochromatic regions in the yeast genome. These findings define the roles of nucleosomes and transcription factors in UV damage formation and repair. UV mapping data was analyzed for yeast cells irradiated with 125J/m2 and allowed to repair for 0hr (2 samples), 20 minutes, 1 hour, or 2 hours. Data is also included for naked DNA irradiated with UV 60 or 90 J/m2

CPD-seq mapping of UV damage repair in rad16 mutant yeast

Project description:Rad16 is required for global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) of UV-induced CPD lesions. Here we have used a novel high-throughput sequencing method known as CPD-seq to map the repair of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) at single nucleotide resolution across the yeast genome in rad16 mutant cells. Analysis of CPD repair indicates that rad16 is generally required for CPD repair in the non-transcribed strand (NTS) of yeast genes and non-transcribed genomic regions.

Major roles of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers, nucleotide excision repair and ATR in the alternative splicing response to UV irradiation

Project description:Alternative splicing (AS) is the main process that amplifies DNA information and is a crucial target of signaling cascades resulting from UV irradiation of human cells. The specific impact of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) at the transcriptional and AS levels has not been addressed. By using a CPD photolyase, a flavoenzyme that directly reverts CPDs, we analyze the contribution of this lesion to the expression program in human keratinocytes.

Genome-wide analysis of human global and transcription-coupled excision repair of UV damage at single-nucleotide resolution

Project description:We developed a method for genome-wide mapping of DNA excision repair named XR-seq (eXcision Repair-seq). Human nucleotide excision repair generates two incisions surrounding the site of damage, creating a ~30-mer. In XR-seq, this fragment is isolated and subjected to high-throughput sequencing. We used XR-seq to produce stranded, nucleotide-resolution maps of repair of two UV-induced DNA damages in human cells, cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) and (6-4) pyrimidine-pyrimidone photoproducts ((6-4)PPs). In wild-type cells, CPD repair was highly associated with transcription, specifically with the template strand. Experiments in cells defective in either transcription-coupled excision repair or general excision repair isolated the contribution of each pathway to the overall repair pattern, and showed that transcription-coupled repair of both photoproducts occurs exclusively on the template strand. XR-seq maps capture transcription-coupled repair at sites of divergent gene promoters and bi-directional eRNA production at enhancers. XR-seq data also uncovered the repair characteristics and novel sequence preferences of CPDs and (6-4)PPs. XR-seq and the resulting repair maps will facilitate studies of the effects of genomic location, chromatin context, transcription, and replication on DNA repair in human cells. We have performed XR-seq for two types of UV-induced damages (CPD and (6-4)PP) in three different cell lines: NHF1, XP-C (XP4PA-SV-EB, GM15983)), and CS-B (CS1ANps3g2, GM16095). Two biological replicates were performed for each experiment, in which independent cell populations were UV treated and subjected to XR-seq.

CPD-seq mapping of UV damage repair in elf1 mutant yeast

Project description:Elf1 is an important transcription elongation factor that has been implicated in transcription coupled-nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER). Here, we have used a high-throughput sequencing method known as CPD-seq to map the repair of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) at single nucleotide resolution across the yeast genome in elf1 mutant cells. Analysis of CPD repair indicates that Elf1 is important for CPD repair in the transcribed strand (TS) of yeast genes, indicating it plays an important role in TC-NER.
