Abstract:
UV-induced photoproducts are responsible for the pathological effects of sunlight. Mutations in nucleotide excision repair (NER) cause severe pathologies characterized by sunlight sensitivity, coupled to elevated predisposition to cancer and/or neurological dysfunctions. We have previously shown that in UV-irradiated non-cycling cells, only a particular subset of lesions activates the DNA damage response (DDR), and this requires NER and EXO1 activities. To define the molecular mechanism acting at these lesions, we demonstrate that Y family TLS polymerases are recruited atNER- and EXO1-positive lesion sites in non-S phase cells. The coordinated action of EXO1 and Y family TLS polymerases promotes checkpoint activation, leads to lesion repair, and is crucial to prevent cytotoxic double-strand break (DSB) formation.
