Abstract:Active chromatin remodelling is integral to the DNA damage response in eukaryotes, as damage sensors, signalling molecules and repair enzymes gain access to lesions. A variety of nucleosome remodelling complexes is known to promote different stages of DNA repair. The nucleosome sliding factors CHRAC/ACF of Drosophila are involved in chromatin organization during development. Involvement of corresponding hACF1-containing mammalian nucleosome sliding factors in replication, transcription and very recently also n… Show more
“…Recent work reported that SMARCA5 is recruited to DNA damage sites (Erdel et al, 2010;Lan et al, 2010;Nakamura et al, 2011;Sánchez-Molina et al, 2011). Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) coupled to quantitative PCR (qPCR) confirmed these results by showing SMARCA5 and cH2AX accumulation at two different sites flanking AsiSI-induced DSBs on chromosome 1 and 22 (supplementary material Fig.…”

“…However, whether more downstream factors, such as RNF168 or BRCA1, also require chromatin-modifying activities is not known. Recently it was found that SMARCA5/SNF2H, the ATPase of several distinct ISWI chromatin remodeling complexes, is also involved in the DSB response (Lan et al, 2010;Nakamura et al, 2011;Sánchez -Molina et al, 2011). However, mechanistic insight into how SMARCA5 affects the signaling and repair of DSBs is currently limited.…”
SummaryIonizing radiation (IR)-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) arising in native chromatin elicit an RNF8/RNF168-dependent ubiquitylation response, which triggers the recruitment of various repair factors. Precisely how this response is regulated in the context of chromatin remains largely unexplored. Here, we show that SMARCA5/SNF2H, the catalytic subunit of ISWI chromatin remodeling complexes, is recruited to DSBs in a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1)-dependent manner. Remarkably, PARP activity, although dispensable for the efficient spreading of cH2AX into damaged chromatin, selectively promotes spreading of SMARCA5, the E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF168, ubiquitin conjugates and the ubiquitin-binding factors RAD18 and the RAP80-BRCA1 complex throughout DSB-flanking chromatin. This suggests that PARP regulates the spatial organization of the RNF168-driven ubiquitin response to DNA damage. In support of this, we show that SMARCA5 and RNF168 interact in a DNA damage-and PARP-dependent manner. RNF168 became poly(ADP-ribosyl)ated after DNA damage, while RNF168 and poly(ADP-ribose) chains were required for SMARCA5 binding in vivo, explaining how SMARCA5 is linked to the RNF168 ubiquitin cascade. Moreover, SMARCA5 was found to regulate the ubiquitin response by promoting RNF168 accumulation at DSBs, which subsequently facilitates efficient ubiquitin conjugation and BRCA1 assembly. Underlining the importance of these findings, we show that SMARCA5 depletion renders cells sensitive to IR and results in DSB repair defects. Our study unveils a functional link between DNA damage-induced poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation, SMARCA5-mediated chromatin remodeling and RNF168-dependent signaling and repair of DSBs.

“…A structural role for KIF4 explains the previously reported activation of DNA damage signaling pathways in KIF4-null ES cells 14 likely brought about by replicationassociated defects in chromatin assembly. 32 In line with KIF4 mediated chromatin-associated S-phase defects, the observed chromatin phenotypes upon KIF4 loss are reminiscent of those seen in mutants of replication factors such as ORC2 or defective resolution of Holliday junctions in Bloom's syndrome cells. 33,34 The molecular interactions of chromokinesin KIF4 and the chromosome condensation and DNA replication machinery occur probably in the context of larger complexes since human KIF4A and condensin can be biochemically purified with condensin, the DNA methyltransferase DNMT3B, the chromatin remodelers SIN3A and hSNF2H and the histone deacetylase HDAC1.…”
“…Moreover, SNF2H interacts with CSB [97], and the ACF1 subunit is recruited to UVC-induced DNA damage [98]. Knockdown of the mammalian ISWI ATPase SNF2H/SMARCA5 or its auxiliary factor ACF1/BAZ1A also leads to mild UVC sensitivity [99]. However, further experimental evidence is required to understand how ISWI chromatin remodeling functions in the UVC-DNA damage response.…”
