Repair of topoisomerase I covalent complexes in the absence of the tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase Tdp1

Abstract: Accidental or drug-induced interruption of the breakage and reunion cycle of eukaryotic topoisomerase I (Top1) yields complexes in which the active site tyrosine of the enzyme is covalently linked to the 3 end of broken DNA. The enzyme tyrosyl-DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) hydrolyzes this protein-DNA link and thus functions in the repair of covalent complexes, but genetic studies in yeast show that alternative pathways of repair exist. Here, we have evaluated candidate genes for enzymes that might act in parall… Show more

“…If Top1 is inhibited either chemically (for example through the action of the chemotherapeutic drug camptothecin) or as a result of clustered ROS damage, the protein remains bound to the DNA creating a toxic single-strand break in actively replicating cells [55]. Tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase (Tdp1) catalyzes the hydrolysis of Top1 from the 3' terminus of DNA, resulting in a gap with a 3'phosphate and a 5'hydroxyl group at the margins [56], although there are alternative mechanisms of repair for this lesion involving Mre11 or Mus81 [57]. After lesion removal by Tdp1, PNKP can then transfer the phosphate group from the 3' to the 5' terminus, thus preparing the DNA ends for repair [58].…”

“…Tdp1 is one of several potentially redundant pathways involved in the repair of Top-mediated damage in yeast [54,[61][62][63][64][65]. This has been demonstrated through the observation that significant increases in sensitivity to CPT in TDP1-defective yeast are conditional upon at least one additional mutation in other DNA repair and checkpoint genes.…”

“…Mus81/Mms4 (Mus81/Eme1) and Mre11/Rad50/Xrs2 (Mre11/Rad50/Nbs1) cleave a 3′-flap upstream of a branch point [68,69] and function independently from the Tdp1 pathway (Fig. 6A) [62,63]. Mutations in each of these genes render TDP1-deficient yeast cells highly sensitive to CPT.…”

“…This strain lacks not only Tdp1 but also Rad1-Rad10 nuclease, which in yeast provides an alternative (endonucleolytic) pathway for removing Top1 from 3'-termini 11,12 . We transformed this strain with a human cDNA library 3 and screened the resulting population of transformants for cellular resistance to CPT.…”
