Oscillating and stable genome topologies underlie hepatic physiological rhythms during the circadian cycle

The circadian clock drives extensive temporal gene expression programs controlling daily changes in behavior and physiology. In mouse liver, transcription factors dynamics, chromatin modifications, and RNA Polymerase II (PolII) activity oscillate throughou ...

RAD51-dependent recruitment of TERRA lncRNA to telomeres through R-loops

Joachim Lingner, Thomas Frédéric Lunardi, Marianna Feretzaki, Rita Valador Fernandes

Telomeres-repeated, noncoding nucleotide motifs and associated proteins that are found at the ends of eukaryotic chromosomes-mediate genome stability and determine cellular lifespan1. Telomeric-repeat-containing RNA (TERRA) is a class of long noncoding RNA ...

PRDX1 Counteracts Catastrophic Telomeric Cleavage Events That Are Triggered by DNA Repair Activities Post Oxidative Damage

Joachim Lingner, Wareed Ahmed

Telomeres are prone to damage inflicted by reactive oxygen species (ROS). Oxidized telomeric DNA and nucleotide substrates inhibit telomerase, causing telomere shortening. In addition, ROS can induce telomeric single-strand DNA breaks (SSBs). The peroxired ...

Human shelterin protein POT1 prevents severe telomere instability induced by homology-directed DNA repair

Joachim Lingner, Anna-Sophia Briod, Galina Glousker

The evolutionarily conserved POT1 protein binds single-stranded G-rich telomeric DNA and has been implicated in contributing to telomeric DNA maintenance and the suppression of DNA damage checkpoint signaling. Here, we explore human POT1 function through g ...

Human T-Cell Lymphotropic Virus Type 1 Transactivator Tax Exploits the XPB Subunit of TFIIH during Viral Transcription

Human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1) Tax oncoprotein is required for viral gene expression. Tax transactivates the viral promoter by recruiting specific transcription factors but also by interfering with general transcription factors involved in ...

Requirements for DNA bubble structure for efficient cleavage by helix-two-turn-helix DNA glycosylases

Kristina Makasheva

Oxidative DNA lesions, constantly generated by both endogenous and environmentally induced reactive oxygen species, are removed via the base excision repair pathway. In bacteria, Fpg and Nei DNA glycosylases, belonging to the helix-two-turn-helix (H2TH) st ...

Structural transitions and mechanochemical coupling in the nucleoprotein filament explain homology selectivity and Rad51 protein cooperativity in cellular DNA repair

Daniel Migliozzi

The nucleoprotein filament (NPF) is the fundamental element of homologous recombination (HR), a major mechanism for the repair of double-strand DNA breaks in the cell. The NPF is made of the damaged DNA strand surrounded by recombinase proteins, and its se ...

Mitochondrial RNA granules are fluid condensates positioned by membrane dynamics

Mary-Claude Croisier-Coeytaux, Suliana Manley, Timo Henry René Rey

Phase separation concentrates mitochondrial RNA granules. Here Rey et al., show that mitochondrial RNA granules (MRGs) behaviour is consistent with liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and their fusion coincides with mitochondrial remodelling. Mitochondri ...

KAP1 targets actively transcribed genomic loci to exert pleomorphic effects on RNA polymerase II activity

Didier Trono, Annamaria Kauzlaric, Marco Cassano, Suk Min Jang, Evaristo Jose Planet Letschert

KAP1 (KRAB-associated protein 1) is best known as a co-repressor responsible for inducing heterochromatin formation, notably at transposable elements. However, it has also been observed to bind the transcription start site of actively expressed genes. To a ...

SMCHD1 promotes ATM-dependent DNA damage signaling and repair of uncapped telomeres

Joachim Lingner, Verena Pfeiffer, Wareed Ahmed, Aleksandra Vancevska, Marianna Feretzaki

Structural maintenance of chromosomes flexible hinge domain-containing protein 1 (SMCHD1) has been implicated in X-chromosome inactivation, imprinting, and DNA damage repair, and mutations in SMCHD1 can cause facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy. More re ...
