Mechanism and function of DNA replication-independent DNA-protein crosslink repair via the SUMO pathway

ABSTRACT: DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) obstruct essential DNA transactions, posing a serious threat to genome stability and functionality. DPCs are proteolytically processed in a ubiquitin- and DNA replication-dependent manner by SPRTN or the proteasome but can also be resolved via targeted SUMOylation. However, the mechanistic basis of SUMO-mediated DPC resolution and its interplay with replication-coupled DPC repair pathways remain unknown. Here, we show that the SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase RNF4 defines a major pathway for ubiquitylation and proteasomal clearance of SUMOylated DPCs in a DNA replication-independent manner. In addition, we provide evidence that a subset of DPCs can be SUMOylated and processed via transcription, independently of RNF4. SUMO modification of DPCs is mediated by PIAS4 and neither stimulates nor inhibits their rapid DNA replication-dependent proteolysis. Instead, SUMOylation provides a critical salvage mechanism to remove DPCs formed or persisting after replication, as we demonstrate that DPCs on duplex DNA do not activate interphase DNA damage checkpoints. Consequently, in the absence of the SUMO-RNF4 pathway cells can enter mitosis with a high load of unresolved DPCs, leading to defective chromosome segregation and cell death. Collectively, these findings provide mechanistic insights into SUMO-driven pathways underlying replication-independent DPC resolution and highlight their critical importance in maintaining chromosome stability and cellular fitness.

Concerted SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase activities of TOPORS and RNF4 are essential for stress management and cell proliferation

Project description:Protein SUMOylation provides a principal driving force for cellular stress responses including DNA-protein crosslink (DPC) repair and arsenic-induced PML body degradation. In this study, using genome-scale screens, we identify the human E3 ligase TOPORS as a key effector of SUMO-dependent DPC resolution. We demonstrate that TOPORS promotes DPC repair by functioning as a SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase (STUbL), combining ubiquitin ligase activity through its RING domain with poly-SUMO binding via SUMO-interacting motifs, analogous to the STUbL RNF4. Mechanistically, TOPORS is a SUMO1-selective STUbL that complements RNF4 in generating complex ubiquitin landscapes on SUMOylated targets including DPCs and PML, stimulating efficient p97/VCP unfoldase recruitment and proteasomal degradation. Combined loss of TOPORS and RNF4 is synthetic lethal even in unstressed cells, involving defective clearance of SUMOylated proteins from chromatin accompanied by cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Our findings establish TOPORS as a STUbL whose parallel action with RNF4 defines a general mechanistic principle in crucial cellular processes governed by direct SUMO-ubiquitin crosstalk.

Metalloprotease SPRTN/DVC1 Orchestrates Replication-Coupled DNA-Protein Crosslink Removal

Project description:Cytotoxicity of DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) is ascribed largely to their ability to block the progression of DNA replication fork. DPCs are frequently occurring in cells, either as a consequence of metabolism or exogenous agents. The mechanism of DPCs removal is not completely understood. Here, we characterize SPRTN (DVC1) as specialised DNA-dependent metalloprotease for DPC removal in humans. SPRTN has an N-terminal metalloprotease domain that cleaves various DNA binding substrate during S-phase progression. SPRTN is a part of replisome and removes DPCs during DNA replication fork progression, thus protecting proliferative cells from DPCs toxicity. Ruijs-Aalfs Syndrome (RJALS) patient cells with monogenic mutations in SPRTN are hypersensitive to DPC-inducing agents due to DPC removal defect and DNA replication fork stalling. We propose a model where SPRTN protease forms specialised DNA-replication coupled DPC removal pathway essential for DNA replication fork progression and genome stability. We conclude RJALS is the first human syndrome linked to this pathway

A SUMO-mediated protective response to DNA-protein crosslinks

Project description:DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are highly cytotoxic lesions that obstruct essential DNA transactions and whose resolution is critical for cell and organismal fitness. However, unlike the repair pathways for most types of DNA damage, the mechanisms by which cells respond to and overcome DPCs remain poorly understood. Recent studies unveiled a dedicated DPC repair pathway in higher eukaryotes involving the SprT-type metalloprotease SPRTN/DVC1, which proteolytically processes DPCs during DNA replication in a ubiquitin-controlled manner. Here, we show that aldehyde-generated DPCs elicit a potent and highly dynamic, cell cycle-independent SUMOylation response impacting numerous chromatin-associated human proteins. We identify an uncharacterized SprT metalloprotease, ACRC, which unlike SPRTN is targeted to DPCs in a SUMO-dependent manner. Moreover, we establish important physiological roles of the C. elegans ACRC orthologue GCNA-1 and SUMO-mediated signaling in promoting organismal survival upon DPC formation. Finally, we demonstrate that like aldehydes, defined enzymatic DNMT1 DPCs trigger a robust SUMO response targeting the crosslinked proteins and associated factors to promote efficient lesion processing and cellular fitness. Collectively, our findings reveal an evolutionarily conserved general role of SUMO-mediated signaling in facilitating responses to DPCs in metazoans.

DNA replication regulates SPRTN- and Proteasome-dependent DPC proteolysis

Project description:DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are bulky DNA lesions that interfere with DNA metabolism and therefore threaten genomic integrity. Recent studies implicate the metalloprotease SPRTN in S-phase removal of DPCs, but how SPRTN activity is coupled to DNA replication is unknown. Using Xenopus egg extracts that recapitulate replication-coupled DPC proteolysis, we show that DPC degradation not only depends on SPRTN but also the proteasome, which act as independent DPC proteases. Proteasome recruitment requires DPC polyubiquitylation, which is triggered by single-stranded DNA, a byproduct of DNA replication. In contrast, SPRTN-mediated DPC degradation is independent of DPC polyubiquitylation but requires polymerase extension of a nascent strand to the lesion. Thus, SPRTN and proteasome activities are coupled to DNA replication by distinct mechanisms that together promote replication across immovable protein barriers.

The cullin Rtt101 promotes ubiquitin-dependent DNA-Protein Crosslink repair across the cell cycle

Project description:DNA‒protein crosslinks (DPCs) challenge faithful DNA replication and fluid passage of genomic information. Our study unveils the cullin ubiquitin ligase Rtt101 as a novel DPC repair factor. Genetic analyses demonstrate that Rtt101 is essential for resistance to a wide range of DPC types. Using an inducible in vivo DPC system, we reveal the significant impact of Rtt101 on DPC removal, including topoisomerase 1 crosslinks. ChIP-sequencing and ChEC-sequencing specifically highlight the association of Rtt101 with replisomes as well as colocalization with DPCs. Our findings establish Rtt101 as a novel main contributor to DPC repair throughout the yeast cell cycle.

Transcription-coupled DNA-Protein Crosslink repair by CSB and CRL4(CSA)-mediated degradation

Project description:DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs), arise from enzymatic intermediates, endogenous metabolism or exogenous chemicals like chemotherapeutics. DPCs are highly cytotoxic as they will impede DNA transacting processes such as replication, which is counteracted by proteolysis-mediated DPC removal by the protease SPRTN or the proteasome. However, how DPCs affect transcription and how transcription-blocking DPCs are repaired remains largely unknown. Here, we show that DPCs severely inhibit RNA polymerase II (Pol II)-mediated transcription, resulting in the recruitment of the transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) factors CSA and CSB. Interestingly, CSA and CSB are indispensable for transcription-coupled DPC (TC-DPC) repair, while the downstream TC-NER factors UVSSA and XPA are not, indicative of a non-canonical TC-NER mechanism. TC-DPC repair functions independent of SPRTN, but is mediated by the activities of the ubiquitin ligase CRL4CSA and the proteasome. Thus, DPCs are preferentially repaired in genes by a dedicated transcription-coupled repair mechanism, which is crucial to warrant correct transcription.

USP11 deubiquitinates monoubiquitinated SPRTN to repair DNA-protein crosslinks

Project description:DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are toxic DNA lesions that interfere with DNA metabolic processes such as replication, transcription, and recombination. SPRTN is a replication-coupled DNA-dependent metalloprotease that degrades proteins crosslinked to DNA to promote DPC repair. SPRTN function is tightly regulated by a monoubiquitin switch that controls SPRTN chromatin accessibility during DPC repair. The deubiquitinase regulating SPRTN function in DPC repair is unknown. To identify SPRTN modifiers, we performed tandem-affinity purification and mass spectrometry (TAP-MS) analysis of SFB (S-FLAG-streptavidin binding peptide)-tagged SPRTN expressed in HEK 293T cells. We screened the MS list for proteins that are known to function as a deubiquitinase and identified only one potential SPRTN modifier, USP11 deubiquitinase. A reciprocal TAP-MS analysis of SFB-USP11 expressed in HEK 293T cells treated with camptothecin (CPT) immunoprecipitated SPRTN. USP11 interacts with SPRTN and cleaves monoubiquitinated SPRTN in cells and in vitro. USP11 depletion impaired SPRTN deubiquitination in response to formaldehyde-induced DPCs. Loss of USP11 causes an accumulation of unrepaired DPCs and cellular hypersensitivity to treatment with DPC-inducing agents. Our findings elucidates the function of USP11 in the regulation of SPRTN monoubiquitination and SPRTN-mediated DPC repair.

SUMO-2 Orchestrates Chromatin Modifiers in Response to DNA Damage

Project description:Small Ubiquitin-like Modifiers play critical roles in the DNA Damage Response (DDR). To increase our understanding of SUMOylation in the mammalian DDR, we employed a quantitative proteomics approach to identify dynamically regulated SUMO-2 conjugates and modification sites upon treatment with the DNA damaging agent MMS. We have uncovered a dynamic set of 20 upregulated and 33 downregulated SUMO-2 conjugates, and 755 SUMO-2 sites, of which 362 were dynamic in response to MMS. In contrast to yeast, where a response is centered on homologous recombination, we identified dynamically SUMOylated interaction networks of chromatin modifiers, transcription factors, DNA repair factors and nuclear body components. SUMOylated chromatin modifiers include JARID1B/KDM5B, JARID1C/KDM5C, p300, CBP, PARP1, SetDB1 and MBD1. Whereas SUMOylated JARID1B was ubiquitylated by the SUMO-targeted ubiquitin ligase RNF4 and degraded by the proteasome in response to DNA damage, JARID1C was SUMOylated and recruited to the chromatin to demethylate histone H3K4.
