UNLABELLED: The Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway is essential for repairing DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICL). ICLs induce stalled DNA replication forks and trigger activation of the FA pathway by promoting recruitment of the FANCM/FAAP24/MHF complex to ICL sites. Given that stalled replication forks are proximal to ICL sites, fork-associated proteins may coordinate with FA factors to rapidly sense ICLs for activation of FA signaling. Here we report that And-1, a replisome protein, is critical for activation of the FA pathway by sensing ICL-stalled forks and recruiting the FANCM/FAAP24 complex to ICLs. In response to ICLs, And-1 rapidly accumulated at ICL-stalled forks in a manner dependent on ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3-related protein-induced phosphorylation at T826. And-1 phosphorylation triggered an intramolecular change that promoted the interaction of And-1 with FANCM/FAAP24, resulting in recruitment of the FANCM/FAAP24 complex to ICLs. Furthermore, p-T826 And-1 was elevated in cisplatin-resistant ovarian cancer cells, and activated And-1 contributed to cisplatin resistance. Collectively, these studies elucidate a mechanism by which And-1 regulates FA signaling and identify And-1 as a potential target for developing therapeutic approaches to treat platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. SIGNIFICANCE: This work shows that phosphorylation of And-1 by ATR activates Fanconi anemia signaling at interstrand crosslink-stalled replication forks by recruiting the FANCM/FAAP24 complex, revealing And-1 as a potential therapeutic target in cancer.
未加标签:范可尼贫血(FA)途径对于修复 DNA 链间交联(ICL)至关重要。ICL 会导致 DNA 复制叉停滞,并通过促进 FANCM/FAAP24/MHF 复合物募集到 ICL 位点来触发 FA 途径的激活。鉴于停滞的复制叉靠近 ICL 位点,叉相关蛋白可能与 FA 因子协同作用,快速感知 ICL 以激活 FA 信号。在这里,我们报告说,And-1,一种复制体蛋白,通过感应 ICL 停滞的叉和招募 FANCM/FAAP24 复合物到 ICL 来感知 ICL 来激活 FA 途径是至关重要的。在 ICL 的作用下,And-1 在 T826 处依赖于共济失调毛细血管扩张症和 Rad3 相关蛋白诱导的磷酸化,快速积累到 ICL 停滞的叉上。And-1 磷酸化触发了一个分子内变化,促进了 And-1 与 FANCM/FAAP24 的相互作用,导致 FANCM/FAAP24 复合物被招募到 ICL 上。此外,顺铂耐药卵巢癌细胞中 p-T826 And-1 水平升高,激活的 And-1 有助于顺铂耐药。总之,这些研究阐明了 And-1 调节 FA 信号的机制,并确定 And-1 是开发治疗铂耐药卵巢癌方法的潜在靶标。
意义:这项工作表明,ATR 对 And-1 的磷酸化通过招募 FANCM/FAAP24 复合物激活了在链间交联停滞复制叉处的范可尼贫血信号,揭示了 And-1 作为癌症中潜在的治疗靶点。
