Abstract

Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) bodies (also called ND10) are dynamic nuclear structures implicated in a wide variety of cellular processes. ALT-associated PML bodies (APBs) are specialized PML bodies found exclusively in telomerase-negative tumors in which telomeres are maintained by recombination-based alternative (ALT) mechanisms. Although it has been suggested that APBs are directly implicated in telomere metabolism of ALT cells, their precise role and structure have remained elusive. Here we show that PML bodies in ALT cells associate with chromosome ends forming small, spatially well-defined clusters, containing on average 2–5 telomeres. Using an innovative approach that gently enlarges PML bodies in living cells while retaining their overall organization, we show that this physical enlargement of APBs spatially resolves the single telomeres in the cluster, but does not perturb the potential of the APB to recruit chromosome extremities. We show that telomere clustering in PML bodies is cell-cycle regulated and that unique telomeres within a cluster associate with recombination proteins. Enlargement of APBs induced the accumulation of telomere-telomere recombination intermediates visible on metaphase spreads and connecting heterologous chromosomes. The strand composition of these recombination intermediates indicated that this recombination is constrained to a narrow time window in the cell cycle following replication. These data provide strong evidence that PML bodies are not only a marker for ALT cells but play a direct role in telomere recombination, both by bringing together chromosome ends and by promoting telomere-telomere interactions between heterologous chromosomes.

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.
