Figure 1 Model for Mammalian SSBR at Direct Breaks and Indirect Breaks during BER At most abasic sites created during BER (“AP”), APE1 binds and cleaves the site (a), and recruits Polβ (c), which then inserts a single nucleotide and repairs the 5′-deoxyribose phosphate terminus (“dRP”) created by APE1 (e). This results in a ligatable nick that is sealed by recruitment of XRCC1-Lig3α (g). Under some circumstances, Polβ cannot remove the 5′-dRP terminus (e.g., if the dRP is oxidized or reduced). At these “stalled” repair events, recruitment of PARP, PCNA, and FEN1 stimulates extension of the gap by 2–15 nucleotides and cleavage of the resulting flap (f). The nick is subsequently ligated by Lig1 (h). Note that Polδ/ϵ may participate in long patch repair under some circumstances. Direct SSBs arising from sugar damage, and possibly a subset of SSBs arising during BER (e.g., abasic sites that become “uncoupled” from APE1 or that are cleaved by AP lyase [dotted arrow]), are bound by PARP-1 or PARP-2, which are then activated and automodified (b). Automodified PARP recruits XRCC1-Lig3α to the SSB, which replaces PARP and forms a molecular scaffold. Damaged 5′- or 3′-termini (red circles) are converted to 5′-phosphate and 3′-hydroxyl moieties by APE1 or PNK, which interact with and are stimulated by XRCC1 (d). Recruitment of Polβ (e) enables single nucleotide gap filling at most SSBs followed by ligation by Lig3α (g). As described for BER, above, at some direct breaks, gap filling may be conducted in long patch mode by Polβ or Polδ/ϵ (f), with ligation conducted by Lig1 (h). Damaged termini are indicated by red circles and nascent DNA from gap filling by a red line. The major pathways are indicated by large arrows and the minor pathways by small arrows.

Figure 2 Model for the Repair of Abortive Topo1 SSBs
PARP-1/PARP-2 and TDP1 are recruited to the SSB (a). TDP1 removes the 3′-topo1 peptide, thereby leaving a nick with 3′-phosphate and 5′-hydroxyl termini, and PARP recruits XRCC1-Lig3α heterodimer (b). XRCC1-Lig3α heterodimer replaces PARP at the break (c) and recruits PNK to repair the 3′- and 5′-termini (d). The remaining nick is ligated by DNA ligase IIIα (e). Cell , 7-10DOI: ( /S (02) )

Figure 3 Related FHA Domains in PNK and Aprataxin and Models for SSB-Induced Cell Death in Neurons (A) Alignment of the amino termini of aprataxin and PNK with the consensus FHA domain (NCBI, CDD pfam ). Identical residues are boxed in blue and those residues most highly conserved in FHA domains are underlined. FHA residues highlighted by a red arrow are those that directly contact a phosphopeptide. (B) Models for SSBR-induced cell death in the nervous system. Note the possibilities that SSBs may induce cell death directly, when detected by damage surveillance mechanisms either as SSBs or after conversion to DSBs (red box), or indirectly, by inhibiting expression of one or more essential genes (yellow box). (1)–(3), Possible ways in which mutation of TDP1 or APTX might impact selectively on the NS. (1), greater requirement for SSBR in neurons than in other cells due to greater number of SSBs. (2), TDP1 and SCAN1 mutations result in greater SSBR defect in neurons than in other cells. (3), neurons have a lower threshold for DNA damage than other cells, above which cell death is induced.
