Alternative end-joining catalyzes robust IgH locus deletions and translocations in the combined absence of ligase 4 and Ku70

Abstract: Class switch recombination (CSR) in B lymphocytes is initiated by introduction of multiple DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) into switch (S) regions that flank immunoglobulin heavy chain ( IgH ) constant region exons. CSR is completed by joining a DSB in the donor Sμ to a DSB in a downstream acceptor S region (e.g., Sγ1) by end-joining. In normal cells, many CSR junctions are mediated by classical nonhomologous end-joining (C-NHEJ), which employs the Ku70/80 complex for DSB recognition an… Show more

“…It could be argued that the few S m -S g1 joints found in 3 0 RR-deficient B-cells mask a defect in end-joining that would result in aborted CSR (and, therefore, no joint to analyse). To test this hypothesis we analysed intra S m deletions that frequently happen in mature B-cells during CSR 20 . By using a PCR amplifying the whole S m region followed by Southern blotting, we checked that B-cell stimulation yielded fragments of different lengths corresponding to partial deletion of S m during CSR.…”

“…Altogether, this might inhibit A-EJ, by downregulating gene implicated in microhomology based DSB repair (Atm, Atmin, Ssb1 and Hdac9), and to favour NHEJ by upregulating Parp-3 41 , and Esco1, which influence the interaction between cohesion complex and DNA required for efficient NHEJ 42,43 . A-EJ has been shown to facilitate oncogenic translocations to IgH locus and to be less restricted to intrachromosomal joining than NHEJ 20 . This might be a protective mechanism limiting oncogenic translation to S m , in Figure 6 | Epigenetic marks, AID and pol II recruitments in S c3 , S c2b and S e during CSR in 3 0 RR-deficient mice.…”

“…Called SVs have been deposited in NCBI dbVar. chromosomal translocations (McVey and Lee 2008;Boboila et al 2010;Simsek and Jasin 2010), and entirely distinct pathways in which stalled replication structures are processed by mechanisms variably known as template switching or microhomology-mediated breakinduced replication (MMBIR) (Lee et al 2007;Hastings et al 2009a).To date, these mechanisms have largely been inferred by examination of human CNV breakpoint sequences Vissers et al 2009;Conrad et al 2010a). To begin to explore CNV mechanisms experimentally, we recently reported a system in which normal human fibroblasts were treated with the replication inhibitor aphidicolin (Arlt et al 2009).…”

“…DSB repair in the absence of an intact NHEJ system has been collectively termed alternative end joining (A-EJ) (3,4). A-EJ could be a component-substitution form of NHEJ or a distinct pathway (or pathways) (7)(8)(9). So far, components of A-EJ have not been conclusively defined.…”
