Human and yeast DNA damage recognition complexes bind with high affinity DNA structures mimicking in size transcription bubble

Abstract: The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. In this study, two types of DNA binding assays were used for the detailed analysis of interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that human and yeast orthologs behave similarly in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed using fluorescent depolarization measurements.… Show more

“…Indeed, it seems quite remarkable that without requiring major changes to the overall evolutionarily conserved 3D shape and structure of the mammalian XPC complex, it has nevertheless adopted entirely new transcriptional coactivator functions in the context of ES cell regulatory pathways that are not relevant in yeast. The extent of structural conservation is consistent with their equivalence in repair (22). Regions displaying differences may reflect the divergence in functional capabilities that we observe in a transcriptional context (Fig.…”

“…The similarity between the dsDNA-and ssDNA-bound structures is consistent with the fact that the XPC complex is capable of binding a large suite of different DNA structures, including UVinduced thymine dimers (2), mismatch bubbles (22), ssDNAdsDNA junctions (39), apurinic/apyrimidic (AP) sites (40), and even undamaged duplex and certain single-stranded DNA substrates (33). This similarity between different DNA-bound structures is also consistent with recent work describing a kinetic but not structural means of discrimination between damaged and undamaged DNA by Rad4 (41).…”
