HMCES (5hmC binding, embryonic stem cell-specific-protein), originally identified as a protein capable of binding 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), an epigenetic modification generated by TET proteins, was previously reported to covalently crosslink to DNA at abasic sites via a conserved cysteine. We show here that Hmces-deficient mice display normal hematopoiesis without global alterations in 5hmC. HMCES specifically enables DNA double-strand break repair through the microhomology-mediated alternative-end-joining (Alt-EJ) pathway during class switch recombination (CSR) in B cells, and HMCES deficiency leads to a significant defect in CSR. HMCES mediates Alt-EJ through its SOS-response-associated-peptidase domain (SRAPd), a function that requires DNA binding but is independent of its autopeptidase and DNA-crosslinking activities. We show that HMCES is recruited to switch regions of the immunoglobulin locus and provide a potential structural basis for the interaction of HMCES with long DNA overhangs generated by Alt-EJ during CSR. Our studies provide further evidence for a specialized role for HMCES in DNA repair.

HMCES在B细胞类开关重组过程中在DNA DSB修复的另一种末端连接途径中发挥作用。

HMCES(5hmC结合,胚胎干细胞特异性蛋白)最初被鉴定为能够结合TET蛋白产生的表观遗传修饰的5-羟甲基胞嘧啶(5hmC)的蛋白,以前曾报道它通过脱氧核糖核酸在无碱基位点与DNA共价交联。保守的半胱氨酸。我们在这里显示,Hmces缺陷小鼠显示正常的造血功能,而在5hmC中没有全局改变。HMCES在B细胞中的类开关重组(CSR)期间,通过微同源介导的交替末端连接(Alt-EJ)途径,特别能够实现DNA双链断裂修复,而HMCES缺失会导致CSR的重大缺陷。HMCES通过其SOS反应相关肽酶结构域(SRAPd)介导Alt-EJ,该功能需要DNA结合,但不依赖其自身肽酶和DNA交联活性。我们显示,HMCES被招募来切换免疫球蛋白基因座的区域,并为CCES期间HMCES与Alt-EJ产生的长DNA突出端相互作用提供了潜在的结构基础。我们的研究为HMCES在DNA修复中的特殊作用提供了进一步的证据。
