Ataxia-telangiectasia-mutated (ATM) promotes homologous recombination (HR)-mediated DNA double-strand break repair. It was recently shown that the proteasomal shuttle factor UBQLN4 facilitates MRE11 degradation to repress HR. Surprisingly, the UBQLN4-MRE11 interaction is ATM-dependent, suggesting that the proximal DNA damage kinase ATM does not only initiate HR, but also limits excessive end resection.
共济失调毛细血管扩张症突变基因(ATM)促进同源重组(HR)介导的DNA双链断裂修复。最近研究表明,蛋白酶体穿梭因子UBQLN4促进MRE11降解以抑制HR。令人惊讶的是,UBQLN4与MRE11的相互作用依赖于ATM,这表明近端DNA损伤激酶ATM不仅启动HR,还限制过度的末端切除。
