Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) plays a crucial role in DNA repair and genomic stability maintenance. However, the regulatory mechanisms governing PARP1 activity, particularly through deubiquitination, remain poorly elucidated. Using a deubiquitinase (DUB) library binding screen, we identified cylindromatosis (CYLD) as a bona fide DUB for PARP1 in breast cancer cells.

Genome maintenance is essential for the integrity of the genetic blueprint, of which only a small fraction is transcribed in higher eukaryotes. DNA lesions occurring in the transcribed genome trigger transcription pausing and transcription-coupled DNA repair. There are two major transcription-coupled DNA repair pathways.

In response to the challenge of telomere attrition during DNA replication, cancer cells predominantly employ telomerase or, in 10-15% of cases, the alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT). The intricate details of ALT, however, remain elusive. In this study, we unveil that the knockdown of lamina-associated polypeptide 2 alpha (LAP2α) in ALT cells results in telomere dysfunction, triggering a notable increase in ALT-associated hallmarks, including high frequencies of PML bodies (APBs), C-rich extrachromosomal circles (C-circles), and telomere sister chromatid exchange (T-SCE).

Integrative and conjugative elements (ICEs) are mobile genetic elements that transfer between bacteria and influence host physiology and promote evolution. ICE of modulates the host DNA damage response by reducing RecA filament formation. We found that the two ICE-encoded proteins, RamT and RamA that modulate the SOS response in donors also function in recipient cells to inhibit both the SOS response and homologous recombination following transfer of the element.

Approximately 50% of patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer harbor tumors with mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, or other genes involved in homologous recombination repair (HR). The presence of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) is an approved biomarker for poly-ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors (PARPis) as a maintenance treatment following a positive response to initial platinum-based chemotherapy. Despite this treatment option, the development of resistance to PARPis is common among recurrent disease patients, leading to a poor prognosis.
