ALC1/CHD1L, a chromatin-remodeling enzyme, is required for efficient base excision repair. PLoS One 2017; 12:e0188320.

Abstract
ALC1/CHD1L is a member of the SNF2 superfamily of ATPases carrying a macrodomain that binds poly(ADP-ribose). Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) 1 and 2 synthesize poly(ADP-ribose) at DNA-strand cleavage sites, promoting base excision repair (BER). Although depletion of ALC1 causes increased sensitivity to various DNA-damaging agents (H2O2, UV, and phleomycin), the role played by ALC1 in BER has not yet been established. To explore this role, as well as the role of ALC1’s ATPase activity in BER, we disrupted the ALC1 gene and inserted the ATPase-dead (E165Q) mutation into the ALC1 gene in chicken DT40 cells, which do not express PARP2. The resulting ALC1-/- and ALC1-/E165Q cells displayed an indistinguishable hypersensitivity to methylmethane sulfonate (MMS), an alkylating agent, and to H2O2, indicating that ATPase plays an essential role in the DNA-damage response. PARP1-/- and ALC1-/-/PARP1-/- cells exhibited a very similar sensitivity to MMS, suggesting that ALC1 and PARP1 collaborate in BER. Following pulse-exposure to H2O2, PARP1-/- and ALC1-/-/PARP1-/- cells showed similarly delayed kinetics in the repair of single-strand breaks, which arise as BER intermediates. To ascertain ALC1’s role in BER in mammalian cells, we disrupted the ALC1 gene in human TK6 cells. Following exposure to MMS and to H2O2, the ALC1-/- TK6 cell line showed a delay in single-strand-break repair. We therefore conclude that ALC1 plays a role in BER. Following exposure to H2O2,ALC1-/- cells showed compromised chromatin relaxation. We thus propose that ALC1 is a unique BER factor that functions in a chromatin context, most likely as a chromatin-remodeling enzyme.

PLoS Genet 2012; 8:e1002557. [PMID: 22396666 PMCID: PMC3291567 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1002557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2011] [Accepted: 01/11/2012] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome (NBS), an autosomal recessive genetic instability syndrome, is caused by hypomorphic mutation of the NBN gene, which codes for the protein nibrin. Nibrin is an integral member of the MRE11/RAD50/NBN (MRN) complex essential for processing DNA double-strand breaks. Cardinal features of NBS are immunodeficiency and an extremely high incidence of hematological malignancies. Recent studies in conditional null mutant mice have indicated disturbances in redox homeostasis due to impaired DSB processing. Clearly this could contribute to DNA damage, chromosomal instability, and cancer occurrence. Here we show, in the complete absence of nibrin in null mutant mouse cells, high levels of reactive oxygen species several hours after exposure to a mutagen. We show further that NBS patient cells, which unlike mouse null mutant cells have a truncated nibrin protein, also have high levels of reactive oxygen after DNA damage and that this increased oxidative stress is caused by depletion of NAD+ due to hyperactivation of the strand-break sensor, Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase. Both hyperactivation of Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and increased ROS levels were reversed by use of a specific Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor. The extremely high incidence of malignancy among NBS patients is the result of the combination of a primary DSB repair deficiency with secondary oxidative DNA damage. Damage to DNA is extremely dangerous because it can lead to mutations in genes that initiate or accelerate the development of a tumor. Evolution has led to highly complex networks of DNA repair enzymes, which for the majority of individuals are extremely effective in keeping our DNA intact. The devastating consequences of DNA damage are manifested in those individuals in which one or other of the repair pathways is non-functional. Several genetic disorders can be attributed to such DNA repair deficiencies and have the common feature of increased tumor incidence as the major life-threatening symptom. Cancer incidence varies amongst these disorders and is probably highest for the disease Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome, where more than 50% of patients develop a hematological malignancy in childhood. We have sought to understand this extremely high incidence by exploiting cells from a mouse model and cells derived from patients. We find that deficiency in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks leads to disturbances in cellular metabolism, leading ultimately to a loss of antioxidative capacity. The ensuing accumulation of highly reactive oxygen species generates further DNA lesions, thus potentiating the initial damage and increasing the likelihood of malignancy.

Abstract
NBS1 fulfills important functions for the maintenance of genomic stability and cellular survival. Mutations in the NBS1 (Nijmegen Breakage Syndrome 1) gene are responsible for the Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) in humans. The symptoms of this disease and the phenotypes of NBS1-defective cells, especially their enhanced radiosensitivity, can be explained by an impaired DNA double-strand break-induced signaling and a disturbed repair of these DNA lesions. We now provide evidence that NBS1 is also important for cellular survival after oxidative or alkylating stress where it is required for the proper initiation of base excision repair (BER). NBS1 downregulated cells show reduced activation of poly-(adenosine diphosphate-ribose)-polymerase-1 (PARP1) following genotoxic treatment with H(2)O(2) or methyl methanesulfonate, indicating impaired processing of damaged bases by BER as PARP1 activity is stimulated by the single-strand breaks intermediately generated during this repair pathway. Furthermore, extracts of these cells have a decreased capacity for the in vitro repair of a double-stranded oligonucleotide containing either uracil or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine to trigger BER. Our data presented here highlight for the first time a functional role for NBS1 in DNA maintenance by the BER pathway.

Abstract
Response to genotoxic stress may trigger the activation of distinct mechanisms that serve to promote cell death, including apoptosis and necrosis. In this study we examined the response of human fibroblasts, either proficient or deficient for the damage-activated protein kinase ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM), to the alkylating agent N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Analysis of both long- and short-term viability shows that both ATM-proficient YZ-5 and ATM-deficient EBS-7 fibroblasts display a cytotoxic response to MNNG. Consistent with activation of apoptosis in response to MNNG, we observed increased caspase-3 cleavage and activity, appearance of fragmented nuclei, and increased staining with annexin V in both ATM-proficient and -deficient fibroblasts. Flow cytometry demonstrated that these cell lines also display a nonapoptotic cell death in response to MNNG. This form of cell death is associated with activation of poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP), and analysis of PARP activity indicated increased protein poly(ADP-ribosylation) in YZ-5 when compared to EBS-7. This PARP activity was accompanied by apoptosis-inducing factor release and translocation from the mitochondria to the nucleus. Finally, the PARP inhibitor 3,4-dihydro-5-[4-(1-piperidinyl)butoxy]-1(2H)-isoquinolinone (DPQ) or the caspase-3 inhibitor benzyloxycarbonyl-VAD-fluoromethyl ketone dramatically diminished the cytotoxic response to MNNG, reinforcing the roles for apoptotic and nonapoptotic cell death in human fibroblasts treated with MNNG. From these findings, we conclude that MNNG induces a heterogeneous death response in human fibroblasts.

Abstract
Ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) is a serine/threonine protein kinase that plays a central role in controlling the cellular response to ionizing radiation and other DNA-damaging agents. ATM is a 3056 amino acid polypeptide that is present in low abundance in the nucleus of human cells. Here, we describe the purification and characterization of ATM from the nuclear fraction of HeLa cells. Microgram quantities of highly stable, kinase-active ATM were prepared. Purified ATM was phosphorylated on serine 1981 and was active towards a variety of known ATM substrates, including p53 and the Bloom Syndrome helicase, BLM. The protein kinase activity of ATM was selectively inhibited by wortmannin, caffeine and LY294002 and was stimulated by charged biological polymers, including single-stranded M13 DNA (ssDNA), sheared double-stranded calf thymus DNA, heparin sulfate and poly ADP-ribose (PAR), raising the possibility that charged structures may contribute to regulation of ATM activity. However, chemical inhibition of the formation of poly ADP-ribose in cells had no effect on the activation of ATM-dependent pathways by ionizing radiation. Using gel filtration chromatography, we also show that purified ATM, as well as ATM in crude nuclear extracts from unirradiated and irradiated cells elutes with an estimated native molecular weight of approximately 600 kDa. Moreover, dephosphorylation of serine 1981 did not affect the apparent molecular weight of ATM in irradiated extracts. Our results suggest that phosphorylation of serine 1981 alone may not directly regulate the subunit composition of ATM.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) is a nuclear enzyme which is activated in response to genotoxic insults by binding damaged DNA and attaching polymers of ADP-ribose to nuclear proteins at the expense of its substrate NAD+. In persons affected with ataxia telangiectasia (A-T), associated mutations in the ataxia telangiectasia mutated gene render cells unable to cope with the genotoxic stresses from ionizing radiation and oxidative damage, thus resulting in a higher concentration of unrepaired DNA damage and the activation of PARP in an uncontrolled manner. In primary A-T fibroblasts, we observed a 58-96% increase in PARP activity and a concomitant loss of cellular NAD+ and ATP content. PARP protein by Western blot analysis increased only slightly in these cells, supporting the observation that the steady state levels of DNA damage is higher in A-T cells than in normals. When treated with PARP inhibitors 3-aminobenzamide or 1,5-dihydroisoquinoline, cellular growth rates reached those observed in normal fibroblast cultures. The improvement of cellular growth and NAD+ levels in A-T cells with PARP inhibition suggests that the cellular metabolic status of A-T cells is compromised and the inhibition of PARP may relieve some of the drain on cellular pyridine nucleotides and ATP. Thus, therapy utilizing PARP inhibitors may provide a benefit for individuals affected with A-T.
