PARP1 Is a TRF2-associated poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase and protects eroded telomeres.
Poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase 1 (PARP1) is well characterized for its role in base excision repair (BER), where it is activated by and binds to DNA breaks and catalyzes the poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of several substrates involved in DNA damage repair. Here we demonstrate that PARP1 associates with telomere repeat binding factor 2 (TRF2) and is capable of poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of TRF2, which affects ...
متن کاملEroded human telomeres are more prone to remain uncapped and to trigger a G2 checkpoint response
Telomeres cap the ends of chromosomes and regulate the replicative life span of human somatic cells. Telomere function is lost upon critical shortening and a p53-dependent checkpoint that detects altered telomere states at the G1/S transition was proposed to act as a regulator of the telomere damage response. We show that telomerase-negative human fibroblasts spend more time in G2 phase as they...
متن کاملIs Telomere Length a Biomarker of Adaptive Response? Controversial Findings of NASA and Residents of High Background Radiation Areas
Telomere length and stability is a biomarker of aging, stress, and cancer. Shortening of telomeres and high level of DNA damages are known to be associated with aging. Telomere shortening normally occurs during cell division in most cells and when telomeres reach a critically short length, DNA damage signaling and cellular senescence can be triggered. The induction of an adaptive response by sp...
متن کاملSaccharomyces cerevisiae as a Model to Study Replicative Senescence Triggered by Telomere Shortening
In many somatic human tissues, telomeres shorten progressively because of the DNA-end replication problem. Consequently, cells cease to proliferate and are maintained in a metabolically viable state called replicative senescence. These cells are characterized by an activation of DNA damage checkpoints stemming from eroded telomeres, which are bypassed in many cancer cells. Hence, replicative se...
متن کاملDysfunctional telomeres activate an ATM-ATR-dependent DNA damage response to suppress tumorigenesis.
The POT1 (protection of telomeres) protein binds the single-stranded G-rich overhang and is essential for both telomere end protection and telomere length regulation. Telomeric binding of POT1 is enhanced by its interaction with TPP1. In this study, we demonstrate that mouse Tpp1 confers telomere end protection by recruiting Pot1a and Pot1b to telomeres. Knockdown of Tpp1 elicits a p53-dependen...
