Abstract:
:Cells that depend on oxygen for survival constantly produce reactive oxygen species that attack DNA to produce a variety of lesions, including single-strand breaks with 3'-blocking groups such as 3'-phosphate and 3'-phosphoglycolate. These 3'-blocking ends prevent the activity of DNA polymerase and are generally removed by DNA repair proteins with 3'-diesterase activity. We report here the purification and partial characterization of a 45 kDa protein from Schizosaccharomyces pombe total extract based on the ability of this protein to process bleomycin- or H(2)O(2)-damaged DNA in vitro to allow DNA repair synthesis by DNA polymerase I. Further analysis revealed that the 45 kDa protein removes 3'-phosphate ends created by the Escherichia coli fpg AP lyase following the incision of AP site but is unable to process the 3'-alpha,beta unsaturated aldehyde generated by E. coli endonuclease III. The protein cannot cleave DNA bearing AP sites, suggesting that it is not an AP endonuclease or AP lyase. We conclude that the 45 kDa protein purified from S. pombe is a DNA 3'-phosphatase.
