    Abstract:
    Base excision repair (BER) removes damaged bases by generating single-strand breaks (SSBs), gap-filling by DNA polymerase β (POLβ), and resealing SSBs. A base-damaging agent, methyl methanesulfonate (MMS) is widely used to study BER. BER increases cellular tolerance to MMS, anti-cancer base-damaging drugs, temozolomide, carmustine, and lomustine, and to clinical poly(ADP ribose)polymerase (PARP) poisons, olaparib and talazoparib. The poisons stabilize PARP1/SSB complexes, inhibiting access of BER factors to SSBs. PARP1 and XRCC1 collaboratively promote SSB resealing by recruiting POLβ to SSBs, but XRCC1-/- cells are much more sensitive to MMS than PARP1-/- cells. We recently report that the PARP1 loss in XRCC1-/- cells restores their MMS tolerance and conclude that XPCC1 facilitates the release of PARP1 from SSBs by maintaining its autoPARylation. We here show that the PARP1 loss in XRCC1-/- cells also restores their tolerance to the three anti-cancer base-damaging drugs, although they and MMS induce different sets of base damage. We reveal the synthetic lethality of the XRCC1-/- mutation, but not POLβ-/- , with olaparib and talazoparib, indicating that XRCC1 is a unique BER factor in suppressing toxic PARP1/SSB complex and can suppress even when PARP1 catalysis is inhibited. In conclusion, XRCC1 suppresses the PARP1/SSB complex via PARP1 catalysis-dependent and independent mechanisms.
