Citation | Journal: Nat Struct Mol Biol / Year: 2021Title: Dimers of DNA-PK create a stage for DNA double-strand break repair.

In humans, Ku70/80 recognizes DNA broken ends and recruits the DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) to form DNA-dependent protein kinase holoenzyme (DNA-PK) in the process of non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). We present a 2.8-Å-resolution cryo-EM structure of DNA-PKcs, allowing precise amino acid sequence registration in regions uninterpreted in previous 4.3-Å X-ray maps. We also report a cryo-EM structure of DNA-PK at 3.5-Å resolution and reveal a dimer mediated by the Ku80 C terminus. Central to dimer formation is a domain swap of the conserved C-terminal helix of Ku80. Our results suggest a new mechanism for NHEJ utilizing a DNA-PK dimer to bring broken DNA ends together. Furthermore, drug inhibition of NHEJ in combination with chemo- and radiotherapy has proved successful, making these models central to structure-based drug targeting efforts. #1: Journal: Nat.Struct.Mol.Biol. / Year: 2020Title: Dimers of DNA-PK create a stage for DNA-double strand break repair Authors: Chaplin, A.K. / Hardwick, S.W. / Liang, S. / Stavridi, A.K. / Hnizda, A. / Cooper, L.R. / De Oliveira, T.M. / Chirgadze, D.Y. / Blundell, T.L. | ||||||
