Mechanism of transcriptional stalling at cisplatin-damaged DNA.

  ABSTRACT  
 
The anticancer drug cisplatin forms 1,2-d(GpG) DNA intrastrand cross-links (cisplatin lesions) that stall RNA polymerase II (Pol II) and trigger transcription-coupled DNA repair. Here we present a structure-function analysis of Pol II stalling at a cisplatin lesion in the DNA template. Pol II stalling results from a translocation barrier that prevents delivery of the lesion to the active site. AMP misincorporation occurs at the barrier and also at an abasic site, suggesting that it arises from nontemplated synthesis according to an 'A-rule' known for DNA polymerases. Pol II can bypass a cisplatin lesion that is artificially placed beyond the translocation barrier, even in the presence of a G.A mismatch. Thus, the barrier prevents transcriptional mutagenesis. The stalling mechanism differs from that of Pol II stalling at a photolesion, which involves delivery of the lesion to the active site and lesion-templated misincorporation that blocks transcription.

(a,b) Anomalous difference Fourier maps of Pol II elongation complexes B (a) and C (b), contoured at 6 . Model of complex A is shown, viewed from the side.
Figure 5.
(a) Pol II stalling at the cisplatin lesion (this study), shown as a schematic representation of RNA extension in complex A. The initial RNA (top) corresponds to the unextended RNA of scaffold A. Dashed line represents translocation barrier. The artificial conditions leading to lesion bypass are depicted at the bottom. (b) Pol II stalling at a CPD lesion. Schematic is adapted from reference 8.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB codes are shown on the right.
