TLDR
A large-scale proteomic analysis of proteins phosphorylated in response to DNA damage on consensus sites recognized by ATM and ATR is performed and more than 900 regulated phosphorylation sites encompassing over 700 proteins are identified.
Abstract
Cellular responses to DNA damage are mediated by a number of protein kinases, including ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated) and ATR (ATM and Rad3-related). The outlines of the signal transduction portion of this pathway are known, but little is known about the physiological scope of the DNA damage response (DDR). We performed a large-scale proteomic analysis of proteins phosphorylated in response to DNA damage on consensus sites recognized by ATM and ATR and identified more than 900 regulated phosphorylation sites encompassing over 700 proteins. Functional analysis of a subset of this data set indicated that this list is highly enriched for proteins involved in the DDR. This set of proteins is highly interconnected, and we identified a large number of protein modules and networks not previously linked to the DDR. This database paints a much broader landscape for the DDR than was previously appreciated and opens new avenues of investigation into the responses to DNA damage in mammals.

A structural and dynamic model for the assembly of Replication Protein A on single-stranded DNA

TL;DR: A structural model is presented suggesting how RPA’s DNA-binding domains promote cooperative assembly of multiple RPAs on long ssDNA and this activity is regulated by phosphorylation at S178 in RPA70.

Ubiquitin-activating enzyme UBA1 is required for cellular response to DNA damage

TL;DR: UBA1 is identified as the apical enzyme critical for ubiquitylation-dependent signaling of both DSBs and replication stress in human cells, with implications for maintenance of genomic integrity, disease pathogenesis and cancer treatment.

DNA damage: ubiquitin marks the spot

TL;DR: A flurry of papers reveals how ATM-dependent phosphorylation of mediator and chromatin-associated proteins at sites of double-strand breaks promotes ubiquitylation of local nucleosomes, thereby eliciting a powerful signal for recruitment of repair complexes to the damage site.
Journal ArticleDOI

Redox modulation of the DNA damage response

TL;DR: It is emerging that dietary antioxidants help controlling tumor onset and progression by preventing DNA damage and by acting on cell cycle checkpoints, opening a novel and promising frontier to anticancer therapy.

Germline BAP1 Mutational Landscape of Asbestos-Exposed Malignant Mesothelioma Patients with Family History of Cancer

TL;DR: It is suggested that mesothelioma patients presenting with a family history of cancer should be considered for BAP1 genetic testing to identify those individuals who might benefit from further screening and routine monitoring for the purpose of early detection and intervention.

The DNA damage response: putting checkpoints in perspective

TL;DR: The inability to repair DNA damage properly in mammals leads to various disorders and enhanced rates of tumour development, and this work has shown that direct activation of DNA repair networks is needed to correct this problem.

Cell-cycle checkpoints and cancer

TL;DR: All life on earth must cope with constant exposure to DNA-damaging agents such as the Sun's radiation, and how cells respond to DNA damage are critical determinants of whether that individual will develop cancer.

DNA damage-induced activation of p53 by the checkpoint kinase Chk2.

TL;DR: Chk2 directly phosphorylated p53 on serine 20, which is known to interfere with Mdm2 binding, and provides a mechanism for increased stability of p53 by prevention of ubiquitination in response to DNA damage.

Immunoaffinity profiling of tyrosine phosphorylation in cancer cells

TL;DR: Applying this approach to several cell systems, including cancer cell lines, shows it can be used to identify activated protein kinases and their phosphorylated substrates without prior knowledge of the signaling networks that are activated, a first step in profiling normal and oncogenic signaling networks.

Global Analysis of Protein Phosphorylation in Yeast

TL;DR: The in vitro substrates recognized by most yeast protein kinases are described, with the use of proteome chip technology, and these results will provide insights into the mechanisms and roles of protein phosphorylation in many eukaryotes.
