in repair of chromosome defects in the DNA damage checkpoint
Genome instability in tumor cells Truncations Translocations Inversions Duplications Amplifications Deletions Mutations Caused by defects in repair of chromosome breaks and defects in the DNA damage checkpoint Abdel-Rahman et al. PNAS 98: 2538 (2001)
2
In vertebrates, repair of chromosome breaks is essential for life.
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) arise during normal DNA replication. DSBs arising in chicken DT40 cells after Rad51 is depleted (Takeda lab)
3
HO, I-SceI DSB
4
How are double-strand breaks repaired?
In vivo biochemistry what happens to the DNA? what proteins are doing what?
5
Saccharomyces MAT switching:
a model for DSB-induced recombination and repair HO endonuclease

16
How does the cell know which donor to chose?
donor preference
17
MATa MATa Donor preference during MAT switching HMLa HMRa HMLa HMRa
Donor Preference is controlled by the Recombination Enhancer that acts over 50 kb to control “accessiblity” of the left arm of chromosome III. RE binds both forkhead and SCF transcription factors, but there are no transcripts nearby! 85-90% HMLa MATa HMRa HMLa MATa HMRa
18
MAT a or MATa re∆ MATa MAT HMR HML RE HMRa RE CEN MATa We believe Fkh1 and Sw14/Swi6 make contact with “tethering sites” to change the mobility or position of the left arm of chromosome III

The DNA damage checkpoint
Preventing cell cycle progression to allow more time for DNA repair
21
Analysis of homologous recombination (HO “on” for 1 hr)
HML MAT HO When HO endonuclease is continuously on ( ) HO 0.2% > 99% cells have a single broken chromosome ( )

24
Checkpoint-mediated megabase-wide phosphorylation of
histone H2AX in mammalian cells after DNA damage What about yeast?
25
Distribution of -H2AX in the region around the DSB
What limits the spreading? Are there “barriers”? 25 MAT 60' 20 THR4 60' relative ChIP 15 10 5 170 180 190 200 210 220 230 240 250 chromosome location (kb) Jung-Ae Kim

Kinetics of -H2A loss during ectopic recombination-mediated DSB repair
