Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification that plays a role as a signaling mechanism in various cellular processes. This modification is characterized by its structural diversity, highly dynamic nature, and short half-life. Hence, it is tightly regulated at many levels by cellular factors that fine-tune its formation, downstream signaling, and degradation that together impacts cellular outcomes. Poly-ADP-ribosylation is an essential signaling mechanism in the DNA damage response that mediates the recruitment of DNA repair factors to sites of DNA damage via their poly-ADP-ribose (PAR)-binding domains (PBDs). PAR readers, encoding PBDs, convey the PAR signal to mediate cellular outcomes that in some cases can be dictated by PAR structural diversity. Several PBD families have been identified, each with variable PAR-binding affinity and specificity, that also recognize and bind to distinct parts of the PAR chain. PARylation signaling has emerged as an attractive target for the treatment of specific cancer types, as the inhibition of PAR formation or degradation can selectively eliminate cancer cells with specific DNA repair defects and can enhance radiation or chemotherapy response. In this review, we summarize the key players of poly-ADP-ribosylation and its regulation and highlight PBDs as tools for studying PARylation dynamics and the expanding potential to target PARylation signaling in cancer treatment.

Identification of a novel DNA oxidative damage repair pathway, requiring the ubiquitination of the histone variant macroH2A1.1. BMC Biol 2024; 22:188. [PMID: 39218869 PMCID: PMC11368025 DOI: 10.1186/s12915-024-01987-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The histone variant macroH2A (mH2A), the most deviant variant, is about threefold larger than the conventional histone H2A and consists of a histone H2A-like domain fused to a large Non-Histone Region responsible for recruiting PARP-1 to chromatin. The available data suggest that the histone variant mH2A participates in the regulation of transcription, maintenance of heterochromatin, NAD+ metabolism, and double-strand DNA repair. RESULTS Here, we describe a novel function of mH2A, namely its implication in DNA oxidative damage repair through PARP-1. The depletion of mH2A affected both repair and cell survival after the induction of oxidative lesions in DNA. PARP-1 formed a specific complex with mH2A nucleosomes in vivo. The mH2A nucleosome-associated PARP-1 is inactive. Upon oxidative damage, mH2A is ubiquitinated, PARP-1 is released from the mH2A nucleosomal complex, and is activated. The in vivo-induced ubiquitination of mH2A, in the absence of any oxidative damage, was sufficient for the release of PARP-1. However, no release of PARP-1 was observed upon treatment of the cells with either the DNA alkylating agent MMS or doxorubicin. CONCLUSIONS Our data identify a novel pathway for the repair of DNA oxidative lesions, requiring the ubiquitination of mH2A for the release of PARP-1 from chromatin and its activation.

Abstract
MacroH2A has been linked to transcriptional silencing, cell identity, and is a hallmark of the inactive X chromosome (Xi). However, it remains unclear whether macroH2A plays a role in DNA replication. Using knockdown/knockout cells for each macroH2A isoform, we show that macroH2A-containing nucleosomes slow down replication progression rate in the Xi reflecting the higher nucleosome stability. Moreover, macroH2A1, but not macroH2A2, regulates the number of nano replication foci in the Xi, and macroH2A1 downregulation increases DNA loop sizes corresponding to replicons. This relates to macroH2A1 regulating replicative helicase loading during G1 by interacting with it. We mapped this interaction to a phenylalanine in macroH2A1 that is not conserved in macroH2A2 and the C-terminus of Mcm3 helicase subunit. We propose that macroH2A1 enhances the licensing of pre-replication complexes via DNA helicase interaction and loading onto the Xi.

Abstract
Cellular and molecular responses to DNA damage are highly orchestrated and dynamic, acting to preserve the maintenance and integrity of the genome. Histone proteins bind DNA and organize the genome into chromatin. Post-translational modifications of histones have been shown to play an essential role in orchestrating the chromatin response to DNA damage by regulating the DNA damage response pathway. Among the histone modifications that contribute to this intricate network, histone ADP-ribosylation (ADPr) is emerging as a pivotal component of chromatin-based DNA damage response (DDR) pathways. In this review, we survey how histone ADPr is regulated to promote the DDR and how it impacts chromatin and other histone marks. Recent advancements have revealed histone ADPr effects on chromatin structure and the regulation of DNA repair factor recruitment to DNA lesions. Additionally, we highlight advancements in technology that have enabled the identification and functional validation of histone ADPr in cells and in response to DNA damage. Given the involvement of DNA damage and epigenetic regulation in human diseases including cancer, these findings have clinical implications for histone ADPr, which are also discussed. Overall, this review covers the involvement of histone ADPr in the DDR and highlights potential future investigations aimed at identifying mechanisms governed by histone ADPr that participate in the DDR, human diseases, and their treatments.

Abstract
DNA strand breaks activate Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) 1 and 2, which use NAD+ as the substrate to covalently conjugate ADP-ribose on themselves and other proteins (e.g., Histone) to promote chromatin relaxation and recruit additional DNA repair factors. Enzymatic inhibitors of PARP1 and PARP2 (PARPi) are promising cancer therapy agents that selectively target BRCA1- or BRCA2- deficient cancers. As immediate early responders to DNA strand breaks with robust activities, PARP1 and PARP2 normally form transient foci (<10 minutes) at the micro-irradiation-induced DNA lesions. In addition to enzymatic inhibition, PARPi also extend the presence of PARP1 and PARP2 at DNA lesions, including at replication forks, where they may post a physical block for subsequent repair and DNA replication. The dynamic nature of PARP1 and PARP2 foci made live cell imaging a unique platform to detect subtle changes and the functional interaction among PARP1, PARP2, and their regulators. Recent imaging studies have provided new understandings of the biological consequence of PARP inhibition and uncovered functional interactions between PARP1 and PARP2 and new regulators (e.g., histone poly(ADP-ribosylation) factor). Here, we review recent advances in dissecting the temporal and spatial Regulation of PARP1 and PARP2 at DNA lesions and discuss their physiological implications on both cancer and normal cells.

Abstract
The posttranslational modification of proteins with poly(ADP-ribose) was discovered in the sixties. Since then, we have learned that the enzymes involved, the so-called poly(ADP-ribosyl)polymerases (PARPs), are transferases which use cofactor NAD+ to transfer ADP-ribose to their targets. Few PARPs are able to create poly(ADP-ribose), whereas the majority transfers a single ADP-ribose. In the last decade, hydrolases were discovered which reverse mono(ADP-ribosyl)ation, detection methods were developed and new substrates were defined, including nucleic acids. Despite the continued effort, relatively little is still known about the biological function of most PARPs. In this review, we summarise key functions of ADP-ribosylation and introduce emerging insights.

Abstract
Thoeris defense systems protect bacteria from infection by phages via abortive infection. In these systems, ThsB proteins serve as sensors of infection and generate signaling nucleotides that activate ThsA effectors. Silent information regulator and SMF/DprA-LOG (SIR2-SLOG) containing ThsA effectors are activated by cyclic ADP-ribose (ADPR) isomers 2'cADPR and 3'cADPR, triggering abortive infection via nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) depletion. Here, we characterize Thoeris systems with transmembrane and macro domain (TM-macro)-containing ThsA effectors. We demonstrate that ThsA macro domains bind ADPR and imidazole adenine dinucleotide (IAD), but not 2'cADPR or 3'cADPR. Combining crystallography, in silico predictions, and site-directed mutagenesis, we show that ThsA macro domains form nucleotide-induced higher-order oligomers, enabling TM domain clustering. We demonstrate that ThsB can produce both ADPR and IAD, and we identify a ThsA TM-macro-specific ThsB subfamily with an active site resembling deoxy-nucleotide and deoxy-nucleoside processing enzymes. Collectively, our study demonstrates that Thoeris systems with SIR2-SLOG and TM-macro ThsA effectors trigger abortive infection via distinct mechanisms.

Histone ADP-ribosylation promotes resistance to PARP inhibitors by facilitating PARP1 release from DNA lesions. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2024; 121:e2322689121.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) has emerged as a central target for cancer therapies due to the ability of PARP inhibitors to specifically kill tumors deficient for DNA repair by homologous recombination. Upon DNA damage, PARP1 quickly binds to DNA breaks and triggers ADP-ribosylation signaling. ADP-ribosylation is important for the recruitment of various factors to sites of damage, as well as for the timely dissociation of PARP1 from DNA breaks. Indeed, PARP1 becomes trapped at DNA breaks in the presence of PARP inhibitors, a mechanism underlying the cytotoxitiy of these inhibitors. Therefore, any cellular process influencing trapping is thought to impact PARP inhibitor efficiency, potentially leading to acquired resistance in patients treated with these drugs. There are numerous ADP-ribosylation targets after DNA damage, including PARP1 itself as well as histones. While recent findings reported that the automodification of PARP1 promotes its release from the DNA lesions, the potential impact of other ADP-ribosylated proteins on this process remains unknown. Here, we demonstrate that histone ADP-ribosylation is also crucial for the timely dissipation of PARP1 from the lesions, thus contributing to cellular resistance to PARP inhibitors. Considering the crosstalk between ADP-ribosylation and other histone marks, our findings open interesting perspectives for the development of more efficient PARP inhibitor-driven cancer therapies.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation signaling orchestrates the recruitment of various repair actors and chromatin remodeling processes promoting access to lesions during the early stages of the DNA damage response. The chromatin remodeler complex ACF, composed of the ATPase subunit SMARCA5/SNF2H and the cofactor ACF1/BAZ1A, is among the factors that accumulate at DNA lesions in an ADP-ribosylation dependent manner. In this work, we show that each subunit of the ACF complex accumulates to DNA breaks independently from its partner. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the recruitment of SMARCA5 and ACF1 to sites of damage is not due to direct binding to the ADP-ribose moieties but due to facilitated DNA binding at relaxed ADP-ribosylated chromatin. Therefore, our work provides new insights regarding the mechanisms underlying the timely accumulation of ACF1 and SMARCA5 to DNA lesions, where they contribute to efficient DNA damage resolution.

Abstract
Posttranslational modifications (PTMs) are covalent modifications of proteins that modulate the structure and functions of proteins and regulate biological processes. The development of various mass spectrometry-based proteomics workflows has facilitated the identification of hundreds of PTMs and aided the understanding of biological significance in a high throughput manner. Improvements in sample preparation and PTM enrichment techniques, instrumentation for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), and advanced data analysis tools enhance the specificity and sensitivity of PTM identification. Highly prevalent PTMs like phosphorylation, glycosylation, acetylation, ubiquitinylation, and methylation are extensively studied. However, the functions and impact of less abundant PTMs are not as well understood and underscore the need for analytical methods that aim to characterize these PTMs. This review focuses on the advancement and analytical challenges associated with the characterization of three less common but biologically relevant PTMs, specifically, adenosine diphosphate-ribosylation, tyrosine sulfation, and tyrosine nitration. The advantages and disadvantages of various enrichment, separation, and MS/MS techniques utilized to identify and localize these PTMs are described.

Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation enhances nucleosome dynamics and organizes DNA damage repair components within biomolecular condensates. Mol Cell 2024; 84:429-446.e17.

Abstract
Nucleosomes, the basic structural units of chromatin, hinder recruitment and activity of various DNA repair proteins, necessitating modifications that enhance DNA accessibility. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) of proteins near damage sites is an essential initiation step in several DNA-repair pathways; however, its effects on nucleosome structural dynamics and organization are unclear. Using NMR, cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM), and biochemical assays, we show that PARylation enhances motions of the histone H3 tail and DNA, leaving the configuration of the core intact while also stimulating nuclease digestion and ligation of nicked nucleosomal DNA by LIG3. PARylation disrupted interactions between nucleosomes, preventing self-association. Addition of LIG3 and XRCC1 to PARylated nucleosomes generated condensates that selectively partition DNA repair-associated proteins in a PAR- and phosphorylation-dependent manner in vitro. Our results establish that PARylation influences nucleosomes across different length scales, extending from the atom-level motions of histone tails to the mesoscale formation of condensates with selective compositions.

Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic immune-mediated skin disease in which the symptom-free, uninvolved skin carries alterations in gene expression, serving as a basis for lesion formation. Histones and histone acetylation-related processes are key regulators of gene expression, controlling cell proliferation and immune responses. Dysregulation of these processes is likely to play an important role in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. To gain a complete overview of these potential alterations, we performed a meta-analysis of a psoriatic uninvolved skin dataset containing differentially expressed transcripts from nearly 300 individuals and screened for histones and histone acetylation-related molecules. We identified altered expression of the replication-dependent histones HIST2H2AA3 and HIST2H4A and the replication-independent histones H2AFY, H2AFZ, and H3F3A/B. Eight histone chaperones were also identified. Among the histone acetyltransferases, ELP3 and KAT5 and members of the ATAC, NSL, and SAGA acetyltransferase complexes are affected in uninvolved skin. Histone deacetylation-related alterations were found to affect eight HDACs and members of the NCOR/SMRT, NURD, SIN3, and SHIP HDAC complexes. In this article, we discuss how histone and histone acetylation-related expression changes may affect proliferation and differentiation, as well as innate, macrophage-mediated, and T cell-mediated pro- and anti-inflammatory responses, which are known to play a central role in the development of psoriasis.

Recruitment of the Histone Variant MacroH2A1 to the Pericentric Region Occurs upon Chromatin Relaxation and Is Responsible for Major Satellite Transcriptional Regulation. Cells 2023; 12:2175.

Abstract
Heterochromatin formation plays a pivotal role in regulating chromatin organization and influences nuclear architecture and genome stability and expression. Amongst the locations where heterochromatin is found, the pericentric regions have the capability to attract the histone variant macroH2A1. However, the factors and mechanisms behind macroH2A1 incorporation into these regions have not been explored. In this study, we probe different conditions that lead to the recruitment of macroH2A1 to pericentromeric regions and elucidate its underlying functions. Through experiments conducted on murine fibroblastic cells, we determine that partial chromatin relaxation resulting from DNA damage, senescence, or histone hyper-acetylation is necessary for the recruitment of macroH2A1 to pericentric regions. Furthermore, macroH2A1 is required for upregulation of noncoding pericentric RNA expression but not for pericentric chromatin organization. Our findings shed light on the functional rather than structural significance of macroH2A1 incorporation into pericentric chromatin.

Abstract
Biomolecular condensates are reversible compartments that form through a process called phase separation. Post-translational modifications like ADP-ribosylation can nucleate the formation of these condensates by accelerating the self-association of proteins. Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) chains are remarkably transient modifications with turnover rates on the order of minutes, yet they can be required for the formation of granules in response to oxidative stress, DNA damage, and other stimuli. Moreover, accumulation of PAR is linked with adverse phase transitions in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In this review, we provide a primer on how PAR is synthesized and regulated, the diverse structures and chemistries of ADP-ribosylation modifications, and protein-PAR interactions. We review substantial progress in recent efforts to determine the molecular mechanism of PAR-mediated phase separation, and we further delineate how inhibitors of PAR polymerases may be effective treatments for neurodegenerative pathologies. Finally, we highlight the need for rigorous biochemical interrogation of ADP-ribosylation in vivo and in vitro to clarify the exact pathway from PARylation to condensate formation.

Abstract
Self-renewal is a crucial property of glioblastoma cells that is enabled by the choreographed functions of chromatin regulators and transcription factors. Identifying targetable epigenetic mechanisms of self-renewal could therefore represent an important step toward developing effective treatments for this universally lethal cancer. Here we uncover an epigenetic axis of self-renewal mediated by the histone variant macroH2A2. With omics and functional assays deploying patient-derived in vitro and in vivo models, we show that macroH2A2 shapes chromatin accessibility at enhancer elements to antagonize transcriptional programs of self-renewal. macroH2A2 also sensitizes cells to small molecule-mediated cell death via activation of a viral mimicry response. Consistent with these results, our analyses of clinical cohorts indicate that high transcriptional levels of this histone variant are associated with better prognosis of high-grade glioma patients. Our results reveal a targetable epigenetic mechanism of self-renewal controlled by macroH2A2 and suggest additional treatment approaches for glioblastoma patients.

Abstract
PARPs catalyze ADP-ribosylation-a post-translational modification that plays crucial roles in biological processes, including DNA repair, transcription, immune regulation, and condensate formation. ADP-ribosylation can be added to a wide range of amino acids with varying lengths and chemical structures, making it a complex and diverse modification. Despite this complexity, significant progress has been made in developing chemical biology methods to analyze ADP-ribosylated molecules and their binding proteins on a proteome-wide scale. Additionally, high-throughput assays have been developed to measure the activity of enzymes that add or remove ADP-ribosylation, leading to the development of inhibitors and new avenues for therapy. Real-time monitoring of ADP-ribosylation dynamics can be achieved using genetically encoded reporters, and next-generation detection reagents have improved the precision of immunoassays for specific forms of ADP-ribosylation. Further development and refinement of these tools will continue to advance our understanding of the functions and mechanisms of ADP-ribosylation in health and disease.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) activity is regulated by its co-factor histone poly(ADP-ribosylation) factor 1 (HPF1). The complex formed by HPF1 and PARP1 catalyzes ADP-ribosylation of serine residues of proteins near DNA breaks, mainly PARP1 and histones. However, the effect of HPF1 on DNA repair regulated by PARP1 remains unclear. Here, we show that HPF1 controls prolonged histone ADP-ribosylation in the vicinity of the DNA breaks by regulating both the number and length of ADP-ribose chains. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HPF1-dependent histone ADP-ribosylation triggers the rapid unfolding of chromatin, facilitating access to DNA at sites of damage. This process promotes the assembly of both the homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining repair machineries. Altogether, our data highlight the key roles played by the PARP1/HPF1 complex in regulating ADP-ribosylation signaling as well as the conformation of damaged chromatin at early stages of the DNA damage response.

Abstract
P53 is a master transcriptional regulator and effector of the DNA damage response (DDR) that localizes to DNA damage sites, in part, via an interaction with PARP1. However, the mechanisms that regulate p53 abundance and activity at PARP1-decorated DNA damage sites remain undefined. The PARP9 (BAL1) macrodomain-containing protein and its partner DTX3L (BBAP) E3 ligase are rapidly recruited to PARP1-PARylated DNA damage sites. During an initial DDR, we found that DTX3L rapidly colocalized with p53, polyubiquitylated its lysine-rich C-terminal domain, and targeted p53 for proteasomal degradation. DTX3L knockout significantly increased and prolonged p53 retention at PARP-decorated DNA damage sites. These findings reveal a non-redundant, PARP- and PARylation-dependent role for DTX3L in the spatiotemporal regulation of p53 during an initial DDR. Our studies suggest that targeted inhibition of DTX3L may augment the efficacy of certain DNA-damaging agents by increasing p53 abundance and activity.

Mono-ADP-ribosylation by PARP10 inhibits Chikungunya virus nsP2 proteolytic activity and viral replication. Cell Mol Life Sci 2023; 80:72. [PMID: 36840772 PMCID: PMC9959937 DOI: 10.1007/s00018-023-04717-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2022] [Revised: 01/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/26/2023]
Abstract
Replication of viruses requires interaction with host cell factors and repression of innate immunity. Recent findings suggest that a subset of intracellular mono-ADP-ribosylating PARPs, which are induced by type I interferons, possess antiviral activity. Moreover, certain RNA viruses, including Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), encode mono-ADP-ribosylhydrolases. Together, this suggests a role for mono-ADP-ribosylation (MARylation) in host-virus conflicts, but the relevant substrates have not been identified. We addressed which PARP restricts CHIKV replication and identified PARP10 and PARP12. For PARP10, this restriction was dependent on catalytic activity. Replication requires processing of the non-structural polyprotein nsP1-4 by the protease located in nsP2 and the assembly of the four individual nsP1-nsP4 into a functional replication complex. PARP10 and PARP12 inhibited the production of nsP3, indicating a defect in polyprotein processing. The nsP3 protein encodes a macrodomain with de-MARylation activity, which is essential for replication. In support for MARylation affecting polyprotein processing, de-MARylation defective CHIKV replicons revealed reduced production of nsP2 and nsP3. We hypothesized that MARylation regulates the proteolytic function of nsP2. Indeed, we found that nsP2 is MARylated by PARP10 and, as a consequence, its proteolytic activity was inhibited. NsP3-dependent de-MARylation reactivated the protease. Hence, we propose that PARP10-mediated MARylation prevents polyprotein processing and consequently virus replication. Together, our findings provide a mechanistic explanation for the role of the viral MAR hydrolase in CHIKV replication.

Abstract
Histone variants represent chromatin components that diversify the structure and function of the genome. The variants of H2A, primarily H2A.X, H2A.Z and macroH2A, are well-established participants in DNA damage response (DDR) pathways, which function to protect the integrity of the genome. Through their deposition, post-translational modifications and unique protein interaction networks, these variants guard DNA from endogenous threats including replication stress and genome fragility as well as from DNA lesions inflicted by exogenous sources. A growing body of work is now providing a clearer picture on the involvement and mechanistic basis of H2A variant contribution to genome integrity. Beyond their well-documented role in gene regulation, we review here how histone H2A variants promote genome stability and how alterations in these pathways contribute to human diseases including cancer.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), catalyzed by members of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase family of enzymes, is a posttranslational modification with a critical role in most mechanisms of DNA repair. Upon activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase isoforms 1 and 2 (PARP-1 and PARP-2), the proteins of the base excision repair (BER) and single-strand break repair (SSBR) pathways form DNA lesion-dependent, transient complexes to facilitate repair. PAR is central to the temporal dynamics of BER/SSBR complex assembly and disassembly. To enhance cellular PAR analysis, we developed LivePAR, a fluorescently tagged PAR-binding fusion protein and genetically encoded imaging probe for live cell, quantitative analysis of PAR in mammalian cells. LivePAR has the advantage that it enables real-time imaging of PAR formation in cells and significantly overcomes limitations of immunocytochemistry for PAR analysis. This chapter describes the protocols needed to develop cells expressing LivePAR or EGFP-tagged BER proteins and to evaluate laser-induced formation of PAR and comparison to the assembly of the BER proteins XRCC1 and DNA polymerase-β.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a reversible posttranslational modification resulting in the covalent attachment of ADP-ribose (ADPR) moieties on substrate proteins. Naturally occurring protein motifs and domains, including WWEs, PBZs (PAR binding zinc fingers), and macrodomains, act as "readers" for protein-linked ADPR. Although recombinant, antibody-like ADPR detection reagents containing these readers have facilitated the detection of ADPR, they are limited in their ability to capture the dynamic nature of ADPRylation. Herein, we describe the preparation and use of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) Trackers (PAR-Ts)-optimized dimerization-dependent or split-protein reassembly PAR sensors containing a naturally occurring PAR binding domain fused to both halves of dimerization-dependent GFP (ddGFP) or split nano luciferase (NanoLuc), respectively. We also describe how these tools can be used for the detection and quantification of PAR levels in biochemical assays with extracts and in living cells. These protocols will allow users to explore the broad utility of PAR-Ts for detecting PAR in various experimental and biological systems.

The Role of PARP1 and PAR in ATP-Independent Nucleosome Reorganisation during the DNA Damage Response. Genes (Basel) 2022; 14:genes14010112.

Abstract
The functioning of the eukaryotic cell genome is mediated by sophisticated protein-nucleic-acid complexes, whose minimal structural unit is the nucleosome. After the damage to genomic DNA, repair proteins need to gain access directly to the lesion; therefore, the initiation of the DNA damage response inevitably leads to local chromatin reorganisation. This review focuses on the possible involvement of PARP1, as well as proteins acting nucleosome compaction, linker histone H1 and non-histone chromatin protein HMGB1. The polymer of ADP-ribose is considered the main regulator during the development of the DNA damage response and in the course of assembly of the correct repair complex.

Abstract
The regulation of chromatin state and histone protein eviction have been proven essential during transcription and DNA repair. Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) and poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) are crucial mediators of these processes by affecting DNA/histone epigenetic events. DNA methylation/hydroxymethylation patterns and histone modifications are established by mutual coordination between all epigenetic modifiers. This review will focus on histones and DNA/histone epigenetic machinery that are direct targets of PARP-1 activity by covalent and non-covalent PARylation. The effects of these modifications on the activity/recruitment of epigenetic enzymes at DNA damage sites or gene regulatory regions will be outlined. Furthermore, based on the achievements made to the present, we will discuss the potential application of epigenetic-based therapy as a novel strategy for boosting the success of PARP inhibitors, improving cell sensitivity or overcoming drug resistance.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)lation (PARylation) is a posttranslational modification that plays an important role in a variety of biological processes in both animals and plants. Identification of PARylated substrates is the key to elucidating the regulatory mechanism of PARylation. Several approaches have been developed to identify PARylated substrates over the past decade; however, a reliable and efficient method is needed to demonstrate PARylated proteins. Here, we report a simple and sensitive assay of PARylated proteins using a clickable 6-alkyne-NAD+ analog. The 6-alkyne-NAD+ is incorporated into substrate proteins in the in vitro PARylation assay. The labeled proteins are covalently captured by disulfide azide agarose beads through copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), cleaved under reducing conditions, and analyzed by immunoblotting. The covalent bonds between the PARylated proteins and azide beads allow high stringent washing to eliminate nonspecific binding. Furthermore, the disulfide linker permits efficient cleavage and recovery of highly enriched PARylated proteins. Therefore, this approach can detect proteins that undergo PARylation at very low levels.

Abstract
MacroH2A variants have been linked to inhibition of metastasis through incompletely understood mechanisms. Here, we reveal that solitary dormant disseminated cancer cells (DCCs) display increased levels of macroH2A variants in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma PDX in vivo models and patient samples compared to proliferating primary or metastatic lesions. We demonstrate that dormancy-inducing transforming growth factor-β2 and p38α/β pathways up-regulate macroH2A expression and that macroH2A variant overexpression is sufficient to induce DCC dormancy and suppress metastasis in vivo. Notably, inducible expression of the macroH2A2 variant in vivo suppresses metastasis via a reversible growth arrest of DCCs. This state does not require the dormancy-regulating transcription factors DEC2 and NR2F1; instead, transcriptomic analysis reveals that macroH2A2 overexpression inhibits cell cycle and oncogenic signaling programs, while up-regulating dormancy and senescence-associated inflammatory cytokines. We conclude that the macroH2A2-enforced dormant phenotype results from tapping into transcriptional programs of both quiescence and senescence to limit metastatic outgrowth.

Abstract
High-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is a genomically unstable malignancy responsible for over 70% of all deaths due to ovarian cancer. With roughly 50% of all HGSOC harboring defects in the homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway (e.g., BRCA1/2 mutations), the introduction of poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPi) has dramatically improved outcomes for women with HR defective HGSOC. By blocking the repair of single-stranded DNA damage in cancer cells already lacking high-fidelity HR pathways, PARPi causes the accumulation of double-stranded DNA breaks, leading to cell death. Thus, this synthetic lethality results in PARPi selectively targeting cancer cells, resulting in impressive efficacy. Despite this, resistance to PARPi commonly develops through diverse mechanisms, such as the acquisition of secondary BRCA1/2 mutations. Perhaps less well documented is that PARPi can impact both the tumour microenvironment and the immune response, through upregulation of the stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway, upregulation of immune checkpoints such as PD-L1, and by stimulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Whilst targeted immunotherapies have not yet found their place in the clinic for HGSOC, the evidence above, as well as ongoing studies exploring the synergistic effects of PARPi with immune agents, including immune checkpoint inhibitors, suggests potential for targeting the immune response in HGSOC. Additionally, combining PARPi with epigenetic-modulating drugs may improve PARPi efficacy, by inducing a BRCA-defective phenotype to sensitise resistant cancer cells to PARPi. Finally, invigorating an immune response during PARPi therapy may engage anti-cancer immune responses that potentiate efficacy and mitigate the development of PARPi resistance. Here, we will review the emerging PARPi literature with a focus on PARPi effects on the immune response in HGSOC, as well as the potential of epigenetic combination therapies. We highlight the potential of transforming HGSOC from a lethal to a chronic disease and increasing the likelihood of cure.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a covalent post-translational modification and plays a key role in the immediate response of cells to stress signals. Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), the founding member of the PARP superfamily, synthesizes long and branched polymers of ADP-ribose (PAR) onto acceptor proteins, thereby modulating their function and their local surrounding. PARP1 is the most prominent of the PARPs and is responsible for the production of about 90% of PAR in the cell. Therefore, PARP1 and PARylation play a pleotropic role in a wide range of cellular processes, such as DNA repair and genomic stability, cell death, chromatin remodeling, inflammatory response and gene transcription. PARP1 has DNA-binding and catalytic activities that are important for DNA repair, yet also modulate chromatin conformation and gene transcription, which can be independent of DNA damage response. PARP1 and PARylation homeostasis have also been implicated in multiple diseases, including inflammation, stroke, diabetes and cancer. Studies of the molecular action and biological function of PARP1 and PARylation provide a basis for the development of pharmaceutic strategies for clinical applications. This review focuses primarily on the role of PARP1 in the regulation of chromatin remodeling and transcriptional activation.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a reversible post-translational modification (PTM) tightly regulated by the dynamic interplay between its writers, readers and erasers. As an intricate and versatile PTM, ADP-ribosylation plays critical roles in various physiological and pathological processes. In this review, we discuss the major players involved in the ADP-ribosylation cycle, which may facilitate the investigation of the ADP-ribosylation function and contribute to the understanding and treatment of ADP-ribosylation associated disease.

Poly(ADP-ribose) Polymerase 1 Mediates Rab5 Inactivation after DNA Damage. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23147827.

Abstract
Parthanatos is programmed cell death mediated by poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) after DNA damage. PARP1 acts by catalyzing the transfer of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymers to various nuclear proteins. PAR is subsequently cleaved, generating protein-free PAR polymers, which are translocated to the cytoplasm where they associate with cytoplasmic and mitochondrial proteins, altering their functions and leading to cell death. Proteomic studies revealed that several proteins involved in endocytosis bind PAR after PARP1 activation, suggesting endocytosis may be affected by the parthanatos process. Endocytosis is a mechanism for cellular uptake of membrane-impermeant nutrients. Rab5, a small G-protein, is associated with the plasma membrane and early endosomes. Once activated by binding GTP, Rab5 recruits its effectors to early endosomes and regulates their fusion. Here, we report that after DNA damage, PARP1-generated PAR binds to Rab5, suppressing its activity. As a result, Rab5 is dissociated from endosomal vesicles, inhibiting the uptake of membrane-impermeant nutrients. This PARP1-dependent inhibition of nutrient uptake leads to cell starvation and death. It thus appears that this mechanism may represent a novel parthanatos pathway.

Abstract
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), the most deleterious DNA lesions, are primarily repaired by two pathways, namely homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), the choice of which is largely dependent on cell cycle phase and the local chromatin landscape. Recent studies have revealed that post-translational modifications on histones play pivotal roles in regulating DSB repair pathways including repair pathway choice. In this review, we present our current understanding of how these DSB repair pathways are employed in various chromatin landscapes to safeguard genomic integrity. We place an emphasis on the impact of different histone post-translational modifications, characteristic of euchromatin or heterochromatin regions, on DSB repair pathway choice. We discuss the potential roles of damage-induced chromatin modifications in the maintenance of genome and epigenome integrity. Finally, we discuss how RNA transcripts from the vicinity of DSBs at actively transcribed regions also regulate DSB repair pathway choice.

Abstract
MacroH2A histone variants have a function in gene regulation that is poorly understood at the molecular level. We report that macroH2A1.2 and macroH2A2 modulate the transcriptional ground state of cancer cells and how they respond to inflammatory cytokines. Removal of macroH2A1.2 and macroH2A2 in hepatoblastoma cells affects the contact frequency of promoters and distal enhancers coinciding with changes in enhancer activity or preceding them in response to the cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha. Although macroH2As regulate genes in both directions, they globally facilitate the nuclear factor κB (NF-κB)-mediated response. In contrast, macroH2As suppress the response to the pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon gamma. MacroH2A2 has a stronger contribution to gene repression than macroH2A1.2. Taken together, our results suggest that macroH2As have a role in regulating the response of cancer cells to inflammatory signals on the level of chromatin structure. This is likely relevant for the interaction of cancer cells with immune cells of their microenvironment.

Abstract
The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) family of proteins has been implicated in numerous cellular processes, including DNA repair, translation, transcription, telomere maintenance, and chromatin remodeling. Best characterized is PARP1, which plays a central role in the repair of single strand DNA damage, thus prompting the development of small molecule PARP inhibitors (PARPi) with the intent of potentiating the genotoxic effects of DNA damaging agents such as chemo- and radiotherapy. However, preclinical studies rapidly uncovered tumor-specific cytotoxicity of PARPi in a subset of cancers carrying mutations in the BReast CAncer 1 and 2 genes (BRCA1/2), which are defective in the homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway, and several PARPi are now FDA-approved for single agent treatment in BRCA-mutated tumors. This phenomenon, termed synthetic lethality, has now been demonstrated in tumors harboring a number of repair gene mutations that produce a BRCA-like impairment of HR (also known as a 'BRCAness' phenotype). However, BRCA mutations or BRCAness is present in only a small subset of cancers, limiting PARPi therapeutic utility. Fortunately, it is now increasingly recognized that many small molecule agents, targeting a variety of molecular pathways, can induce therapeutic BRCAness as a downstream effect of activity. This review will discuss the potential for targeting a broad range of molecular pathways to therapeutically induce BRCAness and PARPi synthetic lethality.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation is a well-established post-translational modification that is inherently connected to diverse processes, including DNA repair, transcription, and cell signaling. The crucial roles of mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases (mono-ARTs) in biological processes have been identified in recent years by the comprehensive use of genetic engineering, chemical genetics, and proteomics. This review provides an update on current methodological advances in the study of these modifiers. Furthermore, the review provides details on the function of mono ADP-ribosylation. Several mono-ARTs have been implicated in the development of cancer, and this review discusses the role and therapeutic potential of some mono-ARTs in cancer.

Abstract
The innate immune system, the primary defense mechanism of higher organisms against pathogens including viruses, senses pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). In response to PAMPs, interferons (IFNs) are produced, allowing the host to react swiftly to viral infection. In turn the expression of IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) is induced. Their products disseminate the antiviral response. Among the ISGs conserved in many species are those encoding mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases (mono-ARTs). This prompts the question whether, and if so how, mono-ADP-ribosylation affects viral propagation. Emerging evidence demonstrates that some mono-ADP-ribosyltransferases function as PAMP receptors and modify both host and viral proteins relevant for viral replication. Support for mono-ADP-ribosylation in virus–host interaction stems from the findings that some viruses encode mono-ADP-ribosylhydrolases, which antagonize cellular mono-ARTs. We summarize and discuss the evidence linking mono-ADP-ribosylation and the enzymes relevant to catalyze this reversible modification with the innate immune response as part of the arms race between host and viruses.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a reversible post-translation modification resulting in the covalent attachment of ADP-ribose (ADPR) moieties on substrate proteins. Naturally occurring protein motifs and domains, including WWEs, PBZs, and macrodomains, act as 'readers' for protein-linked ADPR. Although recombinant, antibody-like ADPR detection reagents containing these readers have facilitated the detection of ADPR, they are limited in their ability to capture the dynamic nature of ADPRylation. Herein, we describe and characterize a set of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) Trackers (PAR-Ts)-optimized dimerization-dependent or split-protein reassembly PAR sensors in which a naturally occurring PAR binding domain, WWE, was fused to both halves of dimerization-dependent GFP (ddGFP) or split Nano Luciferase (NanoLuc), respectively. We demonstrate that these new tools allow the detection and quantification of PAR levels in extracts, living cells, and living tissues with greater sensitivity, as well as temporal and spatial precision. Importantly, these sensors detect changes in cellular ADPR levels in response to physiological cues (e.g., hormone-dependent induction of adipogenesis without DNA damage), as well as xenograft tumor tissues in living mice. Our results indicate that PAR Trackers have broad utility for detecting ADPR in many different experimental and biological systems.

Abstract
The replacement of replication-coupled histones with non-canonical histone variants provides chromatin with additional properties and contributes to the plasticity of the epigenome. MacroH2A histone variants are counterparts of the replication-coupled histone H2A. They are characterized by a unique tripartite structure, consisting of a histone fold, an unstructured linker, and a globular macrodomain. MacroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 are the result of alternative splicing of the MACROH2A1 gene and can have opposing biological functions. Here, we discuss the structural differences between the macrodomains of the two isoforms, resulting in differential ligand binding. We further discuss how this modulates gene regulation by the two isoforms, in cases resulting in opposing role of macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 in development and differentiation. Finally, we share recent insight in the evolution of macroH2As. Taken together, in this review, we aim to discuss in unprecedented detail distinct properties and functions of the fascinating macroH2A1 splice isoforms.

Abstract
ADP-ribosylation (ADPRylation) is a post-translational modification of proteins catalyzed by ADP-ribosyl transferase (ART) enzymes, including nuclear PARPs (e.g., PARP1 and PARP2). Historically, studies of ADPRylation and PARPs have focused on DNA damage responses in cancers, but more recent studies elucidate diverse roles in a broader array of biological processes. Here, we summarize the expanding array of molecular mechanisms underlying the biological functions of nuclear PARPs with a focus on PARP1, the founding member of the family. This includes roles in DNA repair, chromatin regulation, gene expression, ribosome biogenesis, and RNA biology. We also present new concepts in PARP1-dependent regulation, including PAR-dependent post-translational modifications, "ADPR spray," and PAR-mediated biomolecular condensate formation. Moreover, we review advances in the therapeutic mechanisms of PARP inhibitors (PARPi) as well as the progress on the mechanisms of PARPi resistance. Collectively, the recent progress in the field has yielded new insights into the expanding universe of PARP1-mediated molecular and therapeutic mechanisms in a variety of biological processes.

Abstract
DNA damage repair (DDR) is a safeguard for genome integrity maintenance. Increasing DDR efficiency could increase the yield of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) upon reprogramming from somatic cells. The epigenetic mechanisms governing DDR during iPSC reprogramming are not completely understood. Our goal was to evaluate the splicing isoforms of histone variant macroH2A1, macroH2A1.1, and macroH2A1.2, as potential regulators of DDR during iPSC reprogramming. GFP-Trap one-step isolation of mtagGFP-macroH2A1.1 or mtagGFP-macroH2A1.2 fusion proteins from overexpressing human cell lines, followed by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis, uncovered macroH2A1.1 exclusive interaction with Poly-ADP Ribose Polymerase 1 (PARP1) and X-ray cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1). MacroH2A1.1 overexpression in U2OS-GFP reporter cells enhanced specifically nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) repair pathway, while macroH2A1.1 knock-out (KO) mice showed an impaired DDR capacity. The exclusive interaction of macroH2A1.1, but not macroH2A1.2, with PARP1/XRCC1, was confirmed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) undergoing reprogramming into iPSC through episomal vectors. In HUVEC, macroH2A1.1 overexpression activated transcriptional programs that enhanced DDR and reprogramming. Consistently, macroH2A1.1 but not macroH2A1.2 overexpression improved iPSC reprogramming. We propose the macroH2A1 splicing isoform macroH2A1.1 as a promising epigenetic target to improve iPSC genome stability and therapeutic potential.

Unconventional metabolites in chromatin regulation. Biosci Rep 2022; 42:230604.

Abstract
Chromatin, the complex of DNA and histone proteins, serves as a main integrator of cellular signals. Increasing evidence links cellular functional to chromatin state. Indeed, different metabolites are emerging as modulators of chromatin function and structure. Alterations in chromatin state are decisive for regulating all aspects of genome function and ultimately have the potential to produce phenotypic changes. Several metabolites such as acetyl-CoA, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) or adenosine triphosphate (ATP) have now been well characterized as main substrates or cofactors of chromatin-modifying enzymes. However, there are other metabolites that can directly interact with chromatin influencing its state or that modulate the properties of chromatin regulatory factors. Also, there is a growing list of atypical enzymatic and nonenzymatic chromatin modifications that originate from different cellular pathways that have not been in the limelight of chromatin research. Here, we summarize different properties and functions of uncommon regulatory molecules originating from intermediate metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and amino acids. Based on the various modes of action on chromatin and the plethora of putative, so far not described chromatin-regulating metabolites, we propose that there are more links between cellular functional state and chromatin regulation to be discovered. We hypothesize that these connections could provide interesting starting points for interfering with cellular epigenetic states at a molecular level.

Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic reminds us that in spite of the scientific progress in the past century, there is a lack of general antiviral strategies. In analogy to broad-spectrum antibiotics as antibacterial agents, developing broad spectrum antiviral agents would buy us time for the development of vaccines and treatments for future viral infections. In addition to targeting viral factors, a possible strategy is to understand host immune defense mechanisms and develop methods to boost the antiviral immune response. Here we summarize the role of NAD+-consuming enzymes in the immune defense against viral infections, with the hope that a better understanding of this process could help to develop better antiviral therapeutics targeting these enzymes. These NAD+-consuming enzymes include PARPs, sirtuins, CD38, and SARM1. Among these, the antiviral function of PARPs is particularly important and will be a focus of this review. Interestingly, NAD+ biosynthetic enzymes are also implicated in immune responses. In addition, many viruses, including SARS-CoV-2 contain a macrodomain-containing protein (NSP3 in SARS-CoV-2), which serves to counteract the antiviral function of host PARPs. Therefore, NAD+ and NAD+-consuming enzymes play crucial roles in immune responses against viral infections and detailed mechanistic understandings in the future will likely facilitate the development of general antiviral strategies.

Evolution of a histone variant involved in compartmental regulation of NAD metabolism. Nat Struct Mol Biol 2021; 28:1009-1019.

Abstract
NAD metabolism is essential for all forms of life. Compartmental regulation of NAD+ consumption, especially between the nucleus and the mitochondria, is required for energy homeostasis. However, how compartmental regulation evolved remains unclear. In the present study, we investigated the evolution of the macrodomain-containing histone variant macroH2A1.1, an integral chromatin component that limits nuclear NAD+ consumption by inhibiting poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 in vertebrate cells. We found that macroH2A originated in premetazoan protists. The crystal structure of the macroH2A macrodomain from the protist Capsaspora owczarzaki allowed us to identify highly conserved principles of ligand binding and pinpoint key residue substitutions, selected for during the evolution of the vertebrate stem lineage. Metabolic characterization of the Capsaspora lifecycle suggested that the metabolic function of macroH2A was associated with nonproliferative stages. Taken together, we provide insight into the evolution of a chromatin element involved in compartmental NAD regulation, relevant for understanding its metabolism and potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
The life cycle of human papillomavirus (HPV) depends on keratinocyte differentiation as the virus modulates and takes advantage of cellular pathways to replicate its genome and assemble viral particles in differentiated cells. Viral genomes are amplified in nuclear replication foci in differentiated keratinocytes, and DNA repair factors from the DNA damage response signaling pathway are recruited to replicate viral DNA. The HPV genome is associated with cellular histones at all stages of the infectious cycle, and here, we show that the histone variant macroH2A1 is bound to the HPV genome and enriched in viral replication foci in differentiated cells. macroH2A1 isoforms play important roles in cellular transcriptional repression, double-strand break repair, and replication stress. The viral E8^E2 protein also binds to the HPV genome and inhibits viral replication and gene expression by recruiting NCoR/SMRT complexes. We show here that E8^E2 and SMRT also localize within replication foci, though independently from macroH2A1. Conversely, transcription complexes containing RNA polymerase II and Brd4 are located on the surface of the foci. Foci generated with an HPV16 E8^E2 mutant genome are not enriched for SMRT or macroH2A1 but contain transcriptional complexes throughout the foci. We propose that both the cellular macroH2A1 protein and viral E8^E2 protein help to spatially separate replication and transcription activities within viral replication foci. IMPORTANCE Human papillomaviruses are small DNA viruses that cause chronic infection of cutaneous and mucosal epithelium. In some cases, persistent infection with HPV can result in cancer, and 5% of human cancers are the result of HPV infection. In differentiated cells, HPV amplifies viral DNA in nuclear replication factories and transcribes late mRNAs to produce capsid proteins. However, very little is known about the spatial organization of these activities in the nucleus. Here, we show that repressive viral and cellular factors localize within the foci to suppress viral transcription, while active transcription takes place on the surface. The cellular histone variant macroH2A1 is important for this spatial organization.

Temporal dynamics of base excision/single-strand break repair protein complex assembly/disassembly are modulated by the PARP/NAD +/SIRT6 axis. Cell Rep 2021; 37:109917.

Abstract
Assembly and disassembly of DNA repair protein complexes at DNA damage sites are essential for maintaining genomic integrity. Investigating factors coordinating assembly of the base excision repair (BER) proteins DNA polymerase β (Polβ) and XRCC1 to DNA lesion sites identifies a role for Polβ in regulating XRCC1 disassembly from DNA repair complexes and, conversely, demonstrates Polβ’s dependence on XRCC1 for complex assembly. LivePAR, a genetically encoded probe for live-cell imaging of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR), reveals that Polβ and XRCC1 require PAR for repair-complex assembly, with PARP1 and PARP2 playing unique roles in complex dynamics. Further, BER complex assembly is modulated by attenuation/augmentation of NAD+ biosynthesis. Finally, SIRT6 does not modulate PARP1 or PARP2 activation but does regulate XRCC1 recruitment, leading to diminished Polβ abundance at sites of DNA damage. These findings highlight coordinated yet independent roles for PARP1, PARP2, and SIRT6 and their regulation by NAD+ bioavailability to facilitate BER. Koczor et al. use quantitative confocal microscopy to characterize DNA-damage-induced poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) formation and assembly/disassembly kinetics in human cells. These studies highlight the coordinated yet independent roles for XRCC1, POLΒ, PARP1, PARP2, and SIRT6 (and regulation by NAD+) to facilitate BER/SSBR protein complex dynamics.

Abstract
Preserving genome integrity through repair of DNA damage is critical for human health and defects in these pathways lead to a variety of pathologies, most notably cancer. The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum is remarkably resistant to DNA damaging agents and genome analysis reveals it contains orthologs of several DNA repair pathway components otherwise limited to vertebrates. These include the Fanconi Anemia DNA inter-strand crosslink and DNA strand break repair pathways. Loss of function of these not only results in malignancy, but also neurodegeneration, immune-deficiencies and congenital abnormalities. Additionally, D. discoideum displays remarkable conservations of DNA repair factors that are targets in cancer and other therapies, including poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases that are targeted to treat breast and ovarian cancers. This, taken together with the genetic tractability of D. discoideum, make it an attractive model to assess the mechanistic basis of DNA repair to provide novel insights into how these pathways can be targeted to treat a variety of pathologies. Here we describe progress in understanding the mechanisms of DNA repair in D. discoideum, and how these impact on genome stability with implications for understanding development of malignancy.

Abstract
The breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) and its partner - the BRCA1-associated RING domain protein 1 (BARD1) - are key players in a plethora of fundamental biological functions including, among others, DNA repair, replication fork protection, cell cycle progression, telomere maintenance, chromatin remodeling, apoptosis and tumor suppression. However, mutations in their encoding genes transform them into dangerous threats, and substantially increase the risk of developing cancer and other malignancies during the lifetime of the affected individuals. Understanding how BRCA1 and BARD1 perform their biological activities therefore not only provides a powerful mean to prevent such fatal occurrences but can also pave the way to the development of new targeted therapeutics. Thus, through this review work we aim at presenting the major efforts focused on the functional characterization and structural insights of BRCA1 and BARD1, per se and in combination with all their principal mediators and regulators, and on the multifaceted roles these proteins play in the maintenance of human genome integrity.

Phosphorylation within Intrinsic Disordered Region Discriminates Histone Variant macroH2A1 Splicing Isoforms-macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2. BIOLOGY 2021; 10:biology10070659. [PMID: 34356514 PMCID: PMC8301376 DOI: 10.3390/biology10070659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2021] [Revised: 07/06/2021] [Accepted: 07/07/2021] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
Simple Summary MacroH2A1, a histone H2A variant, is present as two alternative splicing isoforms, macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2, which are finely regulated through several mechanisms, including post-translational modifications (PTM). In this article, the authors provide the PTM pattern of macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 in the same experimental setting through mass spec analysis. They report a different phosphorylation level in their intrinsically disordered linker region, which can be responsible for their different biological role, as computational analysis shows. Abstract Background: Gene expression in eukaryotic cells can be governed by histone variants, which replace replication-coupled histones, conferring unique chromatin properties. MacroH2A1 is a histone H2A variant containing a domain highly similar to H2A and a large non-histone (macro) domain. MacroH2A1, in turn, is present in two alternatively exon-spliced isoforms: macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2, which regulate cell plasticity and proliferation in a remarkably distinct manner. The N-terminal and the C-terminal tails of H2A histones stem from the nucleosome core structure and can be target sites for several post-translational modifications (PTMs). MacroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 isoforms differ only in a few amino acids and their ability to bind NAD-derived metabolites, a property allegedly conferring their different functions in vivo. Some of the modifications on the macroH2A1 variant have been identified, such as phosphorylation (T129, S138) and methylation (K18, K123, K239). However, no study to our knowledge has analyzed extensively, and in parallel, the PTM pattern of macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 in the same experimental setting, which could facilitate the understanding of their distinct biological functions in health and disease. Methods: We used a mass spectrometry-based approach to identify the sites for phosphorylation, acetylation, and methylation in green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 expressed in human hepatoma cells. The impact of selected PTMs on macroH2A1.1 and macroH2A1.2 structure and function are demonstrated using computational analyses. Results: We identified K7 as a new acetylation site in both macroH2A1 isoforms. Quantitative comparison of histone marks between the two isoforms revealed significant differences in the levels of phosphorylated T129 and S170. Our computational analysis provided evidence that the phosphorylation status in the intrinsically disordered linker region in macroH2A1 isoforms might represent a key regulatory element contributing to their distinct biological responses. Conclusions: Taken together, our results report different PTMs on the two macroH2A1 splicing isoforms as responsible for their distinct features and distribution in the cell.
