Inhibition of homologous recombination by variants of the catalytic subunit of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PKcs).

Abstract:

:Two major DNA double-strand break repair pathways exist in all eukaryotes, nonhomologous DNA end joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR). Although both pathways can function throughout the cell cycle, NHEJ predominates in G0/G1) (when a replicated sister chromatid is unavailable), whereas HR makes a more substantial contribution in S and G2. How a cell chooses between these two important DNA repair pathways is largely unknown. DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is critical for NHEJ. Here, we describe two conserved splice variants of a catalytic subunit of DNA-PK (DNA-PKcs) that are expressed predominately in nondividing cells. Although both encode stable products, neither reverses the NHEJ defects in DNA-PKcs-deficient cells. In fact, cells expressing one of the DNA-PKcs variants are slightly more radiosensitive than cells completely deficient in DNA-PKcs. We investigated whether cells expressing the DNA-PKcs variants had any other DNA repair deficits and found that these cells are considerably more sensitive to both etoposide and mitomycin C than cells that express no DNA-PKcs at all. Because repair of DNA damage induced by these two agents requires intact HR, we tested whether the NHEJ-defective variants of DNA-PKcs inhibit double-strand break-induced HR in an integrated substrate. In cells expressing the NHEJ-defective variants, HR was markedly reduced. Because the splice variants are expressed highly only in nondividing cells, quiescent cells would be afforded a mechanism to inhibit repair by means of HR when sister chromatids are not available as templates for accurate repair with low risk of genome rearrangement, thereby enhancing genome stability.
