ATM-Dependent Chromatin Changes Silence Transcription In cis to DNA Double-Strand Breaks
Open accessAbstract
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) initiate extensive local and global alterations in chromatin structure, many of which depend on the ATM kinase. Histone H2A ubiquitylation (uH2A) on chromatin surrounding DSBs is one example, thought to be important for recruitment of repair proteins. uH2A is also implicated in transcriptional repression; an intriguing yet untested hypothesis is that this function is conserved in the context of DSBs. Using a novel reporter that allows for visualization of repair protein recruitment and local transcription in single cells, we describe an ATM-dependent transcriptional silencing program in cis to DSBs. ATM prevents RNA polymerase II elongation-dependent chromatin decondensation at regions distal to DSBs. Silencing is partially dependent on E3 ubiquitin ligases RNF8 and RNF168, whereas reversal of silencing relies on the uH2A deubiquitylating enzyme USP16. These findings give insight into the role of posttranslational modifications in mediating crosstalk between diverse processes occurring on chromatin.

“DSBs were previously shown to interfere with the expression of break-proximal genes in tumor cell lines (11–13,42).”

In the citing paper
“Consistent with this, recent findings demonstrate transcriptional repression in cis to DSBs, which depends on DNA damage signaling and ceases after DSB repair is complete (10–13).”

“This work is, however, limited to highly proliferative tumor cell lines, and its implications for animal tissues, which often exhibit little or no proliferation, remain unclear.”

In the citing paper
“DSBs are known to promote a dynamic reorganization of break-proximal chromatin, with the potential to affect the expression of both break-proximal and ostensibly undamaged genes (10,13,19,45,48–50).”
From Controlled DNA double-strand break induction in mice reveals post-damage transcriptome stability (2016) · cites this paper as [13]
In the citing paper
“our findings, thus, suggest that most tissues have the potential to restore DSB-induced gene deregulation, although the kinetics of DSB repair and DNA damage-associated gene silencing may differ depending on cell type and/or cell cycle state.”
From Controlled DNA double-strand break induction in mice reveals post-damage transcriptome stability (2016) · cites this paper as [13]
In the citing paper
“The latter is in agreement with several reports implicating the DDR mediators ATM and DNA-PK in DSB-proximal repressive chromatin formation as well as transcriptional silencing (9–13,50).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
