One of these mechanisms involves “skipping” DNA damage through repriming downstream of the lesion, leaving single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) gaps behind the advancing forks (also known as post-replicative gaps). In vertebrates, repriming in damaged leading templates is proposed to be mainly promoted by the primase and polymerase PRIMPOL. In this review, we discuss recent advances towards our understanding of the physiological and pathological conditions leading to repriming activation in human models, revealing a regulatory network of PRIMPOL activity. Upon repriming by PRIMPOL, post-replicative gaps formed can be filled-in by the DDT mechanisms translesion synthesis and template switching. We discuss novel findings on how these mechanisms are regulated and coordinated in time to promote gap filling. Finally, we discuss how defective gap filling and aberrant gap expansion by nucleases underlie the cytotoxicity associated with post-replicative gap accumulation. Our increasing knowledge of this repriming mechanism – from gap formation to gap filling – is revealing that targeting the last step of this pathway is a promising approach to exploit post-replicative gaps in anti-cancer therapeutic strategies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":300,"journal":{"name":"DNA Repair","volume":"142 ","pages":"Article 103758"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1568786424001344/pdfft?md5=9d0db51b43887b593c7fd2ff414ca0be&pid=1-s2.0-S1568786424001344-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142137404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Polβ-DPC are rapidly processed in mammalian cells by proteasome-dependent digestion. Blocking the proteasome causes oxidative Polβ-DPC to accumulate in a ubiquitylated form, and this accumulation is toxic to human cells. In the current study, we investigated the mechanism of Polβ-DPC processing in cells exposed to the dL-inducing oxidant 1,10-copper-ortho-phenanthroline. Alanine substitution of either or both of two Polβ C-terminal residues, lysine-206 and lysine-244, enhanced the accumulation of mutant Polβ-DPC relative to the wild-type protein, and removal of the mutant DPC was diminished. Substitution of the N-terminal lysines 41, 61, and 81 did not affect Polβ-DPC processing. For Polβ with the C-terminal lysine substitutions, the amount of ubiquitin in the stabilized DPC was lowered by ∼40 % relative to wild-type Polβ. Suppression of the HECT domain-containing E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIP12 augmented the formation of oxidative Polβ-DPC and prevented Polβ-DPC removal in oxidant-treated cells. Consistent with the toxicity of accumulated oxidative Polβ-DPC, <em>TRIP12</em> knockdown increased oxidant-mediated cytotoxicity. Thus, ubiquitylation of lysine-206 and lysine-244 by TRIP12 is necessary for digestion of Polβ-DPC by the proteasome as the rapid first steps of DPC repair to prevent their cytotoxic accumulation.

However, little is known about involvement of Pol ζ in TLS of non- or poorly-distorting, but miscoding, lesions such as <em>O</em><sup>6</sup>-methyldeoxyguanosine (<em>O</em><sup>6</sup>-medG).

These conserved regulators of DNA topology catalyze controlled breakage to the DNA backbone to relieve the torsional stress that accumulates during essential DNA transactions including DNA replication, transcription, and DNA repair. Each topoisomerase-catalyzed reaction involves the formation of a topoisomerase cleavage complex (TOPcc), a covalent protein-DNA reaction intermediate formed between the DNA phosphodiester backbone and a topoisomerase catalytic tyrosine residue. A variety of perturbations to topoisomerase reaction cycles can trigger failure of the enzyme to re-ligate the broken DNA strand(s), thereby generating topoisomerase DNA-protein crosslinks (TOP-DPC). TOP-DPCs pose unique threats to genomic integrity. These complex lesions are comprised of structurally diverse protein components covalently linked to genomic DNA, which are bulky DNA adducts that can directly impact progression of the transcription and DNA replication apparatus. A variety of genome maintenance pathways have evolved to recognize and resolve TOP-DPCs. Eukaryotic cells harbor tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterases (TDPs) that directly reverse 3′-phosphotyrosyl (TDP1) and 5′-phoshotyrosyl (TDP2) protein-DNA linkages. The broad specificity Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1 and APE2 nucleases are also critical for mitigating topoisomerase-generated DNA damage.

Strategies to target, unfold, and degrade the protein component of TOP-DPCs have evolved as well.
