Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a universal regulator of Cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs) - a family of modular enzymes that control various cellular processes via timely degradation of key signaling proteins. The CSN, with its eight-subunit architecture, employs multisite binding of CRLs and inactivates CRLs by removing a small ubiquitin-like modifier named neural precursor cell-expressed, developmentally downregulated 8 (Nedd8). Besides the active site of the catalytic subunit CSN5, two allosteric sites are present in the CSN, one of which recognizes the substrate recognition module and the presence of CRL substrates, and the other of which can 'glue' the CSN-CRL complex by recruitment of inositol hexakisphosphate. In this review, we present recent findings on the versatile regulation of CSN-CRL complexes.

O-GlcNAcylation Links Nutrition to the Epigenetic Downregulation of UNC5A during Colon Carcinogenesis. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12113168. [PMID: 33126652 PMCID: PMC7693889 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12113168] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2020] [Revised: 10/22/2020] [Accepted: 10/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Nutritional disorders represent major risk factors for colorectal cancer according to mechanisms of action that are still insufficiently known. The aim of our study was to investigate the putative involvement of nutrition in the epigenetic downregulation of the tumor suppressor genes of the UNC5 (Uncoordinated 5) family during colonic carcinogenesis and to understand its molecular relays. Herein, we provided evidence that the consumption of a High Carbohydrate Diet worsens colon carcinogenesis in mice and is correlated with the downregulation of several members of the UNC5 family whose UNC5A (Uncoordinated 5A). Mechanistically, we identified the nutritional sensor O-GlcNAcylation as one of the molecular relays that regulate the recruitment of the PRC2 complex onto the UNC5A promoter to repress its transcription. Abstract While it is now accepted that nutrition can influence the epigenetic modifications occurring in colorectal cancer (CRC), the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. Among the tumor suppressor genes frequently epigenetically downregulated in CRC, the four related genes of the UNC5 family: UNC5A, UNC5B, UNC5C and UNC5D encode dependence receptors that regulate the apoptosis/survival balance. Herein, in a mouse model of CRC, we found that the expression of UNC5A, UNC5B and UNC5C was diminished in tumors but only in mice subjected to a High Carbohydrate Diet (HCD) thus linking nutrition to their repression in CRC. O-GlcNAcylation is a nutritional sensor which has enhanced levels in CRC and regulates many cellular processes amongst epigenetics. We then investigated the putative involvement of O-GlcNAcylation in the epigenetic downregulation of the UNC5 family members. By a combination of pharmacological inhibition and RNA interference approaches coupled to RT-qPCR (Reverse Transcription-quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction) analyses, promoter luciferase assay and CUT&RUN (Cleavage Under Target & Release Using Nuclease) experiments, we demonstrated that the O-GlcNAcylated form of the histone methyl transferase EZH2 (Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2) represses the transcription of UNC5A in human colon cancer cells. Collectively, our data support the hypothesis that O-GlcNAcylation could represent one link between nutrition and epigenetic downregulation of key tumor suppressor genes governing colon carcinogenesis including UNC5A.

The COP9 Signalosome: A Multi-DUB Complex. Biomolecules 2020; 10:biom10071082. [PMID: 32708147 PMCID: PMC7407660 DOI: 10.3390/biom10071082] [Citation(s) in RCA: 51] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2020] [Revised: 07/07/2020] [Accepted: 07/13/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a signaling platform controlling the cellular ubiquitylation status. It determines the activity and remodeling of ~700 cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), which control more than 20% of all ubiquitylation events in cells and thereby influence virtually any cellular pathway. In addition, it is associated with deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs) protecting CRLs from autoubiquitylation and rescuing ubiquitylated proteins from degradation. The coordination of ubiquitylation and deubiquitylation by the CSN is presumably important for fine-tuning the precise formation of defined ubiquitin chains. Considering its intrinsic DUB activity specific for deneddylation of CRLs and belonging to the JAMM family as well as its associated DUBs, the CSN represents a multi-DUB complex. Two CSN-associated DUBs, the ubiquitin-specific protease 15 (USP15) and USP48 are regulators in the NF-κB signaling pathway. USP15 protects CRL1β-TrCP responsible for IκBα ubiquitylation, whereas USP48 stabilizes the nuclear pool of the NF-κB transcription factor RelA upon TNF stimulation by counteracting CRL2SOCS1. Moreover, the CSN controls the neddylation status of cells by its intrinsic DUB activity and by destabilizing the associated deneddylation enzyme 1 (DEN1). Thus, the CSN is a master regulator at the intersection between ubiquitylation and neddylation.

Interaction between NSMCE4A and GPS1 links the SMC5/6 complex to the COP9 signalosome. BMC Mol Cell Biol 2020; 21:36.

Abstract
Background The SMC5/6 complex, cohesin and condensin are the three mammalian members of the structural maintenance of chromosomes (SMC) family, large ring-like protein complexes that are essential for genome maintenance. The SMC5/6 complex is the least characterized complex in mammals; however, it is known to be involved in homologous recombination repair (HRR) and chromosome segregation. Results In this study, a yeast two-hybrid screen was used to help elucidate novel interactions of the kleisin subunit of the SMC5/6 complex, NSMCE4A. This approach discovered an interaction between NSMCE4A and GPS1, a COP9 signalosome (CSN) component, and this interaction was further confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation. Additionally, GPS1 and components of SMC5/6 complex colocalize during interphase and mitosis. CSN is a cullin deNEDDylase and is an important factor for HRR. Depletion of GPS1, which has been shown to negatively impact DNA end resection during HRR, caused an increase in SMC5/6 levels at sites of laser-induced DNA damage. Furthermore, inhibition of the dennedylation function of CSN increased SMC5/6 levels at sites of laser-induced DNA damage. Conclusion Taken together, these data demonstrate for the first time that the SMC5/6 and CSN complexes interact and provides evidence that the CSN complex influences SMC5/6 functions during cell cycle progression and response to DNA damage.

Abstract
The Cullin-RING E3 ligases (CRLs) are major ubiquitylation machineries regulated by reversible cycles of neddylation and deneddylation. The deneddylase COP9 Signalosome (CSN) terminates CRL catalytic cycle. CSN also provides a docking platform for several kinases and deubiquitinases that might play a role in regulating CRL. Recently, remarkable progress has been made in elucidating the biochemical principles and physiological implications of such exquisite regulation. The cryo-EM structures of CRL-CSN complexes provide the biochemical basis of their cognate interactions and reveal potential regulatory mechanisms during complex disassembly. Moreover, novel players beyond the canonical eight subunits of CSN were identified. This includes CSNAP, a potential 9th CSN subunit with regulatory functions, and the metabolite inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6), which enhances CRL-CSN complex formation, with IP6-metabolizing enzymes possibly instilling dynamics to the CRL-CSN system. Here, we review and summarize these new mechanistic insights along with progress in understanding CSN biology based on model organisms with genetically edited CSN subunits.

PLoS Genet 2019; 15:e1008463.

Abstract
Nucleophosmin (NPM1) is frequently mutated or subjected to chromosomal translocation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). NPM protein is primarily located in the nucleus, but the recurrent NPMc+ mutation, which creates a nuclear export signal, is characterized by cytoplasmic localization and leukemogenic properties. Similarly, the NPM-MLF1 translocation product favors the partial cytoplasmic retention of NPM. Regardless of their common cellular distribution, NPM-MLF1 malignancies engender different effects on hematopoiesis compared to NPMc+ counterparts, highlighting possible aberrant nuclear function(s) of NPM in NPMc+ and NPM-MLF1 AML. We performed a proteomic analysis and found that NPM and NPM-MLF1 interact with various nuclear proteins including subunits of the chromatin remodeling complexes ISWI, NuRD and P/BAF. Accordingly, NPM and NPM-MLF1 are recruited to transcriptionally active or repressed genes along with NuRD subunits. Although the overall gene expression program in NPM knockdown cells is similar to that resulting from NPMc+, NPM-MLF1 expression differentially altered gene transcription regulated by NPM. The abnormal gene regulation imposed by NPM-MLF1 can be characterized by the enhanced recruitment of NuRD to gene regulatory regions. Thus, different mechanisms would orchestrate the dysregulation of NPM function in NPMc+- versus NPM1-MLF1-associated leukemia. NPMc+ mutation is the most common mutation in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with prevalence in one third of all AML cases. NPM can also be involved in leukemogenic translocation including the t(3;5)(q25;q34) NPM-MLF1 translocation, which is associated to bad clinical course but remains poorly defined. We are reporting that NPM and the leukemogenic NPM-MLF1 play central role in chromatin organization and gene regulation in hematopoietic cells. A proteomic analysis provided the evidence that NPM and NPM-MLF1 are interacting with the chromatin remodeling complexes NuRD, P/BAF and ISWI in hematopoietic cells. The NPM nuclear depletion, such as imposed by the leukemogenic NPMc+ mutation, or the expression of NPM-MLF1 favors the uncontrolled recruitment of the CHD4/NuRD to chromatin and the abnormal regulation of NPM-target genes. Our results suggest that the abnormal gene regulation forced by NPM-MLF1 is different than the loss of nuclear function imposed by NPMc+, and it can be characterized by the enhanced recruitment of CHD4/NuRD to genes. Thus, NPM-MLF1 is likely to promote hematopoietic malignancies by disruption of gene regulation imposed by the NuRD activity.

CSNAP, the smallest CSN subunit, modulates proteostasis through cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases. Cell Death Differ 2019; 27:984-998. [PMID: 31367012 DOI: 10.1038/s41418-019-0392-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2019] [Revised: 06/12/2019] [Accepted: 06/14/2019] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
The cullin-RING ubiquitin E3 ligase (CRL) family consists of ~250 complexes that catalyze ubiquitylation of proteins to achieve cellular regulation. All CRLs are inhibited by the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN) through both enzymatic (deneddylation) and nonenzymatic (steric) mechanisms. The relative contribution of these two mechanisms is unclear. Here, we decouple the mechanisms using CSNAP, the recently discovered ninth subunit of the CSN. We find that CSNAP reduces the affinity of CSN toward CRL complexes. Removing CSNAP does not affect deneddylation, but leads to global effects on the CRL, causing altered reproductive capacity, suppressed DNA damage response, and delayed cell cycle progression. Thus, although CSNAP is only 2% of the CSN mass, it plays a critical role in the steric regulation of CRLs by the CSN.

Abstract
A small nuclear protein, C1D, has roles in various cellular processes, transcription regulation, genome stability surveillance, DNA repair and RNA processing, all of which are required to maintain the host life cycles. In the previous report, C1D directly interacts with XPB, a component of the nucleotide excision repair complex, and C1D knockdown reduced cell survival of 27-1 cells, CHO derivative cells, after UV irradiation. To find out the role of C1D in UV-damaged cells, we used human cell lines with siRNA or shRNA to knockdown C1D. C1D knockdown reduced cell survival rates of LU99 and 786-O after UV irradiation, although C1D knockdown did not affect the efficiency of the nucleotide excision repair. Immunostaining data support that C1D is not directly involved in the DNA repair process in UV-damaged cells. However, H2O2 treatment reduced cell viability in LU99 and 786-O cells. We also found that C1D knockdown upregulated DDIT3 expression in LU99 cells and downregulated APEX1 in 786-O cells, suggesting that C1D functions as a co-repressor/activator. The data accounts for the reduction of cell survival rates upon UV irradiation.

Abstract
Jab1/CSN5 is a conserved multifunctional protein involved in ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation. Deregulation of Jab1/CSN5 can exert dramatic effects on diverse cellular functions, including DNA repair, cell cycle control, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and signal transduction, all of which are critical for tumor development. Although increasing evidence has demonstrated that Jab1/CSN5 was overexpressed in a variety of human cancers and usually correlated with poor prognosis, little was known about the underlying regulatory principles that coordinated its function. In this review, we highlight recent advances of the oncogenic role of Jab1/CSN5 and its potential as a therapeutic target for anticancer intervention.

Abstract
Rice yield and quality are adversely affected by increasing global surface temperature, and are strongly attributed to high night temperature (HNT) than high daytime temperature. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the heat‐tolerant characteristics of rice remains unclear. In the present study, we compared the proteomes of heat‐tolerant and ‐sensitive lines of rice at early milky stage using an iTRAQ method. We have identified 38 differentially expressed proteins between the two lines, of which 32 proteins have been functionally annotated in NCBI and/or the UniProt database. These proteins were then classified into seven functional subgroups, which include signal transduction, transcript regulation, oxidation, defense response, transport, energy metabolism, and biosynthesis. Further analysis indicated that HNT stress could disrupt the redox equilibrium of plant cells, which in turn triggers the calcium‐dependent protein kinase and COP9 signalosome, thereby regulating downstream genes/proteins that are involved in the HNT response. The candidate proteins may provide genetic resources for the improvement of heat‐tolerant characteristics in rice, and the proposed model for signal transduction and transcriptional regulation may facilitate in the elucidation of the molecular mechanism underlying the response to HNT stress in rice.

Abstract
The COP9 signalosome removes Nedd8 modifications from the Cullin subunits of ubiquitin ligase complexes, reducing their activity. Here, we show that mutations in the Drosophila COP9 signalosome subunit 1b (CSN1b) gene increase the activity of ubiquitin ligases that contain Cullin 1. Analysis of CSN1b mutant phenotypes revealed a requirement for the COP9 signalosome to prevent ectopic expression of Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) target genes. It does so by protecting Capicua, a transcriptional repressor of EGFR target genes, from EGFR pathway-dependent ubiquitylation by a Cullin 1/SKP1-related A/Archipelago E3 ligase and subsequent proteasomal degradation. The CSN1b subunit also maintains basal Capicua levels by protecting it from a separate mechanism of degradation that is independent of EGFR signaling. As a suppressor of tumor growth and metastasis, Capicua may be an important target of the COP9 signalosome in cancer.

Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) and the proteasomal LID are conserved macromolecular complexes composed of at least eight subunits with molecular weights of approximately 350 kDa. CSN and LID are part of the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway and cleave isopeptide linkages of lysine side chains on target proteins. CSN cleaves the isopeptide bond of ubiquitin-like protein Nedd8 from cullins, whereas the LID cleaves ubiquitin from target proteins sentenced for degradation. CSN and LID are structurally and functionally similar but the order of the assembly pathway seems to be different. The assembly differs in at least the last subunit joining the pre-assembled subcomplex. This review addresses the similarities and differences in structure, function and assembly of CSN and LID.

Abstract
DenA/DEN1 and the COP9 signalosome (CSN) represent two deneddylases which remove the ubiquitin-like Nedd8 from modified target proteins and are required for distinct fungal developmental programmes. The cellular DenA/DEN1 population is divided into a nuclear and a cytoplasmatic subpopulation which is especially enriched at septa. DenA/DEN1 stability control mechanisms are different for the two cellular subpopulations and depend on different physical interacting proteins and the C-terminal DenA/DEN1 phosphorylation pattern. Nuclear DenA/DEN1 is destabilized during fungal development by five of the eight CSN subunits which target nuclear DenA/DEN1 for degradation. DenA/DEN1 becomes stabilized as a phosphoprotein at S243/S245 during vegetative growth, which is necessary to support further asexual development. After the initial phase of development, the newly identified cytoplasmatic DenA/DEN1 interacting phosphatase DipA and an additional developmental specific C-terminal phosphorylation site at serine S253 destabilize DenA/DEN1. Outside of the nucleus, DipA is co-transported with DenA/DEN1 in the cytoplasm between septa and nuclei. Deletion of dipA resulted in increased DenA/DEN1 stability in a strain which is unresponsive to illumination. The mutant strain is dysregulated in cytokinesis and impaired in asexual development. Our results suggest a dual phosphorylation-dependent DenA/DEN1 stability control with stabilizing and destabilizing modifications and physical interaction partner proteins which function as control points in the nucleus and the cytoplasm.

Abstract
The COP9/signalosome (CSN) multi-protein complex regulates the activity of cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), including the DDB2 and CSA CRL4 ligases (CRL4DDB2 and CRL4CSA), which are involved in the repair of UV-induced DNA damages. In the present study, we demonstrated that the protein kinase ATM, a key component of the DNA damage response (DDR), phosphorylates CSN1 and CSN7a, two subunits of the CSN complex, in a UV-dependent manner. The phosphorylation of CSN1 on serine 474 was detected as early as 3 h after UV-exposure, peaked at 8 h and persisted until 48 h post-UV irradiation. Such a time course suggests a role in late DDR rather than in DNA repair. Consistently, overexpression of a phosphorylation-resistant S474A CSN1 mutant reduced UV-induced apoptosis. Thus, CSN1 appears to play a role not only in DNA repair but also in UV-induced apoptosis.

Abstract
The highly conserved COP9 signalosome (CSN) complex is a key regulator of all cullin-RING-ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), the largest family of E3 ubiquitin ligases. Until now, it was accepted that the CSN is composed of eight canonical components. Here, we report the discovery of an additional integral and stoichiometric subunit that had thus far evaded detection, and we named it CSNAP (CSN acidic protein). We show that CSNAP binds CSN3, CSN5, and CSN6, and its incorporation into the CSN complex is mediated through the C-terminal region involving conserved aromatic residues. Moreover, depletion of this small protein leads to reduced proliferation and a flattened and enlarged morphology. Finally, on the basis of sequence and structural properties shared by both CSNAP and DSS1, a component of the related 19S lid proteasome complex, we propose that CSNAP, the ninth CSN subunit, is the missing paralogous subunit of DSS1.

Abstract
The maintenance of genomic integrity is an important process in organisms as failure to sense and repair damaged DNA can result in a variety of diseases. Eukaryotic cells have developed complex DNA repair response (DDR) mechanisms to accurately sense and repair damaged DNA. Post-translational modifications by ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins, such as SUMO and NEDD8, have roles in coordinating the progression of DDR. Proteins in the neddylation pathway have also been linked to regulating DDR. Of interest is the COP9 signalosome (CSN), a multi-subunit metalloprotease present in eukaryotes that removes NEDD8 from cullins and regulates the activity of cullin-RING ubiquitin ligases (CRLs). This in turn regulates the stability and turnover of a host of CRL-targeted proteins, some of which have established roles in DDR. This review will summarize the current knowledge on the role of the CSN and neddylation in DNA repair.

Abstract
The COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a regulator of the ubiquitin (Ub) proteasome system (UPS). It interacts with hundreds of cullin-RING ubiquitin E3 ligases (CRLs) and regulates their activity by removing the Ub-like protein Nedd8 from cullins. In mammalian cells 7 different cullins exist which form CRLs with adaptor proteins and with a large number of substrate recognition subunits such as F-box and BTB proteins. This large variety of CRL-complexes is deneddylated by the CSN. The capacity of the CSN to interact with numerous types of CRL complexes can be explained by its structural diversity, which allows different CSN variants to interact with different binding partners and substrates and enables different subunit expression profiles. Diversity of CSN complexes presumably occurs by: (1) flexibility of CSN holo complex structure; (2) formation of CSN mini complexes and free CSN subunits and (3) generation of CSN variants via integration of CSN subunit isoforms. In this review we will discuss the structural diversity of the CSN complex and possible functional consequences.

Abstract
The DNA damage response is vigorously activated by DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). The chief mobilizer of the DSB response is the ATM protein kinase. We discovered that the COP9 signalosome (CSN) is a crucial player in the DSB response and an ATM target. CSN is a protein complex that regulates the activity of cullin ring ubiquitin ligase (CRL) complexes by removing the ubiquitin-like protein, NEDD8, from their cullin scaffold. We find that the CSN is physically recruited to DSB sites in a neddylation-dependent manner, and is required for timely repair of DSBs, affecting the balance between the two major DSB repair pathways-nonhomologous end-joining and homologous recombination repair (HRR). The CSN is essential for the processivity of deep end-resection-the initial step in HRR. Cullin 4a (CUL4A) is recruited to DSB sites in a CSN- and neddylation-dependent manner, suggesting that CSN partners with CRL4 in this pathway. Furthermore, we found that ATM-mediated phosphorylation of CSN subunit 3 on S410 is critical for proper DSB repair, and that loss of this phosphorylation site alone is sufficient to cause a DDR deficiency phenotype in the mouse. This novel branch of the DSB response thus significantly affects genome stability.

Abstract
The eight-subunit COP9 signalosome (CSN) is conserved from filamentous fungi to humans and functions at the interface between cellular signalling and protein half-life control. CSN consists of six PCI and two MPN domain proteins and forms a scaffold for additional interacting proteins. CSN controls protein stability in the ubiquitin-proteasome system where the MPN domain CSN5/CsnE subunit inactivates cullin-RING ligases. The CSN5/CsnE isopeptidase functions as deneddylase and removes the ubiquitin-like protein Nedd8. The six PCI domain proteins of human CSN form a horseshoe-like ring and all eight subunits are connected by a bundle of C-terminal α-helices. We show that single deletions of any csn subunit of Aspergillus nidulans resulted in the lack of deneddylase activity and identical defects in the coordination of development and secondary metabolism. The CSN1/CsnA N-terminus is dispensable for deneddylase activity but required for asexual spore formation. Complex analyses in mutant strains revealed the presence of a seven-subunit pre-CSN without catalytic activity. Reconstitution experiments with crude extracts of deletion strains and recombinant proteins allowed the integration of CSN5/CsnE into pre-CSN resulting in an active deneddylase. This supports a stable seven subunit pre-CSN intermediate where deneddylase activation in vivo can be controlled by CSN5/CsnE integration as final assembly step.

Genetic Interaction Landscape Reveals Critical Requirements for Schizosaccharomyces pombe Brc1 in DNA Damage Response Mutants. G3-GENES GENOMES GENETICS 2015; 5:953-62.

Abstract
Brc1, which was first identified as a high-copy, allele-specific suppressor of a mutation impairing the Smc5-Smc6 holocomplex in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, protects genome integrity during normal DNA replication and when cells are exposed to toxic compounds that stall or collapse replication forks. The C-terminal tandem BRCT (BRCA1 C-terminus) domain of fission yeast Brc1 docks with phosphorylated histone H2A (γH2A)-marked chromatin formed by ATR/Rad3 checkpoint kinase at arrested and damaged replication forks; however, how Brc1 functions in relation to other genome protection modules remains unclear. Here, an epistatic mini-array profile reveals critical requirements for Brc1 in mutants that are defective in multiple DNA damage response pathways, including checkpoint signaling by Rad3-Rad26/ATR-ATRIP kinase, DNA repair by Smc5-Smc6 holocomplex, replication fork stabilization by Mrc1/claspin and Swi1-Swi3/Timeless-Tipin, and control of ubiquitin-regulated proteolysis by the COP9 signalosome (CSN). Exogenous genotoxins enhance these negative genetic interactions. Rad52 and RPA foci are increased in CSN-defective cells, and loss of γH2A increases genotoxin sensitivity, indicating a critical role for the γH2A-Brc1 module in stabilizing replication forks in CSN-defective cells. A negative genetic interaction with the Nse6 subunit of Smc5-Smc6 holocomplex indicates that the DNA repair functions of Brc1 and Smc5-Smc6 holocomplex are at least partially independent. Rtt107, the Brc1 homolog in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has a very different pattern of genetic interactions, indicating evolutionary divergence of functions and DNA damage responses.
