Cockayne syndrome group A and B proteins converge on transcription-linked resolution of non-B DNA

Abstract: Cockayne syndrome is a neurodegenerative accelerated aging disorder caused by mutations in the CSA or CSB genes. Although the pathogenesis of Cockayne syndrome has remained elusive, recent work implicates mitochondrial dysfunction in the disease progression. Here, we present evidence that loss of CSA or CSB in a neuroblastoma cell line converges on mitochondrial dysfunction caused by defects in ribosomal DNA transcription and activation of the DNA damage sensor poly-ADP ribose polymerase 1 (PARP1). Indeed, inh… Show more

“…PARP1 detects breaks in DNA and recruits DNA repair proteins through a process called PARylation in which PAR chains are generated and NAD + is consumed [53, 94]. PARP1 may also participate in the detection of G4 structures [95]. The accumulation of nuclear DNA damage, which occurs with age [96], can lead to persistent activation of PARP1, which depletes cellular levels of NAD + and reduces sirtuin activity [97].…”

“…Similar to other DNA repair-defective premature aging diseases, such as xeroderma pigmentosum (XP)[16], ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) [17], and Werner syndrome (WS) [18], mitochondrial dysfunction is implicated in many CS phenotypes [3, 4, 19]. The mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction underlying CS remain unclear but may involve the impairment of the NAD + (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, oxidized)-mitophagy axis [19-22].…”

“…Interestingly, primary fibroblasts from CS patients are characterized by increased mitochondrial content, altered membrane potential and increased ROS production (and references therein). Of note, recent data indicate that mitochondrial alteration resulting from the loss of CSA or CSB might be related to stalled ribosomal DNA transcription . Even more, it has been shown that in CS fibroblasts a nuclear transcription deregulation results in increased levels of the HTRA3 serine protease which degrades mitochondrial DNA polymerase gamma, thus, impairing mitochondrial function …”
