    Description: In mammalian cells, repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) is critical for genome stability. Although the end-bridging and ligation steps of NHEJ have been reconstituted in vitro, little is known about the end-processing reactions that occur before ligation. Recently, functionally homologous end-bridging and ligation activities have been identified in prokarya. Consistent with its homology to polymerases and nucleases, we demonstrate that DNA ligase D from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mt-Lig) possesses a unique variety of nucleotidyl transferase activities, including gap-filling polymerase, terminal transferase, and primase, and is also a 3' to 5' exonuclease. These enzyme activities allow the Mt-Ku and Mt-Lig proteins to join incompatible DSB ends in vitro, as well as to reconstitute NHEJ in vivo in yeast. These results demonstrate that prokaryotic Ku and ligase form a bona fide NHEJ system that encodes all the recognition, processing, and ligation activities required for DSB repair.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Della, Marina -- Palmbos, Phillip L -- Tseng, Hui-Min -- Tonkin, Louise M -- Daley, James M -- Topper, Leana M -- Pitcher, Robert S -- Tomkinson, Alan E -- Wilson, Thomas E -- Doherty, Aidan J -- R01 CA102563/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA102563-01A1/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2004 Oct 22;306(5696):683-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Cambridge Institute for Medical Research, University of Cambridge, Department of Haematology, Hills Road, Cambridge CB2 2XY, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15499016" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) is a critical DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway required to maintain genome stability. Many prokaryotes possess a minimalist NHEJ apparatus required to repair DSBs during stationary phase, composed of two conserved core proteins, Ku and ligase D (LigD). The crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis polymerase domain of LigD mediating the synapsis of two noncomplementary DNA ends revealed a variety of interactions, including microhomology base pairing, mismatched and flipped-out bases, and 3' termini forming hairpin-like ends. Biochemical and biophysical studies confirmed that polymerase-induced end synapsis also occurs in solution. We propose that this DNA synaptic structure reflects an intermediate bridging stage of the NHEJ process, before end processing and ligation, with both the polymerase and the DNA sequence playing pivotal roles in determining the sequential order of synapsis and remodeling before end joining.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Brissett, Nigel C -- Pitcher, Robert S -- Juarez, Raquel -- Picher, Angel J -- Green, Andrew J -- Dafforn, Timothy R -- Fox, Gavin C -- Blanco, Luis -- Doherty, Aidan J -- BB/D522746/1/Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council/United Kingdom -- G120/738/Medical Research Council/United Kingdom -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2007 Oct 19;318(5849):456-9.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Genome Damage and Stability Centre, University of Sussex, Brighton BN1 9RQ, UK.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17947582" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
