Doxorubicin induces double-strand breaks at CpG island promoters

Project description:Doxorubicin is a widely used chemotherapeutic drug that intercalates between DNA base-pairs and posions Topoisomerase II, although the mechanistic basis for cell killing remains speculative. Here we show that both anthracyclines and Topoisomerase II poison cause enhanced DNA double-strand breaks around CpG island promoters of active genes genome-wide. We propose that torsion-based enhancement of nucleosome turnover exposes promoter DNA, ultimately causing DNA breaks around promoters that contributes to cell killing. We have analyzed mouse squamous cell carcinoma cells treated with doxorubicin, aclarubicin and etoposide. The direct in situ Breaks Labeling, Enrichment on Streptavidin (BLESS, PMID 23503052) method was used for mapping DNA double-strand breaks genome-wide.

Ubiquitin-dependent transfer of PAF1c from MYC onto RNA Polymerase controls double-strand break repair at active promoters

Project description:MYC family proteins are oncogenic transcription factors that can globally affect the function of RNA Polymerase II (RNAPII). The ability of MYC proteins to promote transcription elongation depends on their ubiquitination, but the underlying mechanism and its biological relevance are unknown. Here we show that MYC and the Polymerase II associated factor, PAF1c, interact directly and their function is mutually dependent, since the specific binding of MYC to active promoters depends on PAF1c and, conversely, PAF1c is required for MYC-dependent pause release. Upon binding, PAF1c is rapidly transferred from MYC onto RNAPII and this transfer is driven by the HUWE1 ubiquitin ligase. Both MYC and HUWE1 globally control histone H2B ubiquitylation, which promotes transcriptional elongation and alters chromatin structure for double-strand break repair. Consistently, MYC suppresses the accumulation of double-strand breaks at promoters in response to topoisomerase II inhibition. While depletion of PAF1c has only minor effects on MYC-dependent gene expression, MYC induces rampant transcription-dependent DNA damage in PAF1c-depleted cells. We propose that the HUWE1-dependent transfer of PAF1c from MYC onto RNAPII is critical for absorbing the topological stress accompanied with deregulated and oncogenic transcription.
