The multiscale distribution of radiation-induced DNA damage and its impact on local genome structure


ABSTRACT: The three-dimensional genome structure is critical for the regulation of gene expression and repair of DNA damage. While previous work has characterized genome-wide sites of DNA damage caused by etoposide or nucleases, the distribution of double-strand breaks (DSBs) caused by external radiation and how these interact with the 3D genome organization is less well understood. Here, we measure the genomic landscape of radiation-induced DNA damage using END-seq in fibroblasts and lymphoblasts after exposure to 5 Gy X-rays. We identify frequently broken regions and investigate the 3D genome properties around these breaks with Hi-C data. We observe that the distribution of robust breaks correlates with transcriptional and chromatin features of the genome. Transcriptionally active and decondensed regions, such as chromosome 19, the A compartment, and topologically associating domain (TAD) boundaries, show pronounced break probability. We also find evidence of DSB-induced loop formation in the vicinity of frequent radiation-induced breaks. Our data reveal that pre-existing 3D genome architecture influences the distribution of radiation-induced DSBs and that these breaks reshape local chromatin landscapes, advancing our understanding of genome instability.
