Given that our knowledge of DNA repair is limited because of the complexity of the DNA system, a technique called UVA micro-irradiation has been developed that can be used to visualize the recruitment of DNA repair proteins at double-strand break (DSB) sites. Interestingly, Hoechst 33258 was used under micro-irradiation to sensitize 5-bromouracil (BrU)-labelled DNA, causing efficient DSBs. However, the molecular basis of DSB formation under UVA micro-irradiation remains unknown. Herein, we investigated the mechanism of DSB formation under UVA micro-irradiation conditions. Our results suggest that the generation of a uracil-5-yl radical through electron transfer from Hoechst 33258 to BrU caused DNA cleavage preferentially at self-complementary 5′-AABrUBrU-3′ sequences to induce DSB. We also investigated the DNA cleavage in the context of the nucleosome to gain a better understanding of UVA micro-irradiation in a cell-like model. We found that DNA cleavage occurred in both core and linker DNA regions although its efficiency reduced in core DNA.

Hoechst 33258存在下Br U取代的DNA的UVA照射

鉴于我们对DNA修复的了解由于DNA系统的复杂性而受到限制,因此开发了一种称为UVA微辐照的技术,该技术可用于可视化双链断裂(DSB)位点上DNA修复蛋白的募集。有趣的是,在微辐射下使用Hoechst 33258来敏化5-溴尿嘧啶(Br U)标记的DNA,从而产生有效的DSB。但是,在UVA微辐射下形成DSB的分子基础仍然未知。在本文中,我们研究了在UVA微辐照条件下DSB形成的机理。我们的结果表明,通过电子从Hoechst 33258转移至Br U产生的尿嘧啶-5-基自由基优先导致DNA在自我互补5'-AA Br U处的裂解。Br U-3'序列诱导DSB。我们还研究了核小体背景下的DNA裂解,以更好地了解细胞样模型中的UVA微辐射。我们发现,虽然在核心DNA中效率降低,但在核心和接头DNA区域中都发生了DNA裂解。
