Abstract
The Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway removes interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) between the Watson-Crick strands of the DNA double helix in humans. Central to the pathway is the FANCD2/FANCI complex, which must be loaded onto chromosomes. Here, we report the identification of a PP2A phosphatase complex, which specifically dephosphorylates an inhibitory cluster in FANCD2, thereby licensing its loading in response to DNA damage. We show that PP2A is required for normal monoubiquitination of the FANCD2/FANCI complex and for its loading onto chromosomes. We have fully reconstituted a coupled dephosphorylation-ubiquitination reaction in vitro using a highly purified PP2A complex. Using super-resolution live-cell single-molecule tracking, we show how PP2A switches on the FA pathway in response to ICLs and that cells are sensitive to ICL-forming drugs in the absence of PP2A. Our work uncovers a mechanism where PP2A facilitates the activation of the FA pathway by licensing chromosome loading of the FANCD2/FANCI complex.
期刊介绍：
Cell Reports publishes high-quality research across the life sciences and focuses on new biological insight as its primary criterion for publication. The journal offers three primary article types: Reports, which are shorter single-point articles, research articles, which are longer and provide deeper mechanistic insights, and resources, which highlight significant technical advances or major informational datasets that contribute to biological advances. Reviews covering recent literature in emerging and active fields are also accepted.
The Cell Reports Portfolio includes gold open-access journals that cover life, medical, and physical sciences, and its mission is to make cutting-edge research and methodologies available to a wide readership.
The journal's professional in-house editors work closely with authors, reviewers, and the scientific advisory board, which consists of current and future leaders in their respective fields. The advisory board guides the scope, content, and quality of the journal, but editorial decisions are independently made by the in-house scientific editors of Cell Reports.
