Human POT1 Prevents Severe Telomere Damage Instability Induced by Homology Directed DNA Repair


ABSTRACT: The evolutionarily conserved POT1 protein binds the single stranded G-rich telomeric DNA and has been implicated in telomeric DNA maintenance and the suppression of DNA damage checkpoint signaling. Here, we explore human POT1 function through genetics and proteomics discovering that the complete absence of POT1 leads to severe telomere maintenance defects that had not been anticipated from previous depletion studies. We determine the telomeric proteome upon POT1-loss by implementing an improved telomeric chromatin isolation protocol. Using quantitative proteomics by tandem mass tags (TMT) we identified a large set of proteins involved in nucleic acid metabolism that engage with telomeres upon loss of POT1. Inactivation of the homology directed repair machinery suppresses POT1-loss mediated telomeric DNA defects. Our results unravel as major function of human POT1 the suppression of telomere instability induced by homology directed repair.

The evolutionarily conserved POT1 protein binds single-stranded G-rich telomeric DNA and has been implicated in contributing to telomeric DNA maintenance and the suppression of DNA damage checkpoint signaling. Here, we explore human POT1 function through genetics and proteomics, discovering that a complete absence of POT1 leads to severe telomere maintenance defects that had not been anticipated from previous depletion studies in human cells.
