Non-Homologous End ...DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), generated by ionizing radiation, reactive oxygen species and DNA replication across nicks, are the most severe DNA damage in eukaryotic cells. Non-Homologous End Joining repairs DNA double-strand breaks directly without a template and so can take place at any point in the cell cycle. Ku70/80 heterodimers rapidly assemble around broken DNA ends, allowing DNA-PKcs, the catalytic subunit of DNA-dependent protein kinase, to be recruited and facilitating synapsis of broken DNA ends. This then provides a stage for end-processing and ligation. Here we review progress leading in 2017 to the medium resolution X-ray structure of DNA-PKcs, a single polypeptide chain of 4128 amino acids. This was followed quickly by chain tracing of cryo-EM structures of DNA-PKcs in complex with Ku and DNA. We discuss how combination of structural information from X-ray and cryo-EM studies can produce a working model for complex multicomponent molecular assemblies such as those found in DNA-double-strand-break repair. |
