Title: Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation temporally confines SUMO-dependent ataxin-3 recruitment to control DNA double-strand break repair. Author: Pfeiffer A, Herzog LK, Luijsterburg MS, Shah RG, Rother MB, Stoy H, Kühbacher U, van Attikum H, Shah GM, Dantuma NP. Journal: J Cell Sci; 2021 Feb 08; 134(3):. PubMed ID: 33408245. Abstract: DNA damage-induced SUMOylation serves as a signal for two antagonizing proteins that both stimulate repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). Here, we demonstrate that the SUMO-dependent recruitment of the deubiquitylating enzyme ataxin-3 to DSBs, unlike recruitment of the ubiquitin ligase RNF4, additionally depends on poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1)-mediated poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation). The co-dependence of ataxin-3 recruitment on PARylation and SUMOylation temporally confines ataxin-3 to DSBs immediately after occurrence of DNA damage. We propose that this mechanism ensures that ataxin-3 prevents the premature removal of DNA repair proteins only during the early phase of the DSB response and does not interfere with the subsequent timely displacement of DNA repair proteins by RNF4. Thus, our data show that PARylation differentially regulates SUMO-dependent recruitment of ataxin-3 and RNF4 to DSBs, explaining how both proteins can play a stimulatory role at DSBs despite their opposing activities.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
