Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair : New insights revealed by genomic approaches

Copyright © 2021 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved..

Elongation of RNA polymerase II (Pol II) is affected by many factors including DNA damage. Bulky damage, such as lesions caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation, arrests Pol II and inhibits gene transcription, and may lead to genome instability and cell death. Cells activate transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) to remove Pol II-impeding damage and allow transcription resumption. TC-NER initiation in humans is mediated by Cockayne syndrome group B (CSB) protein, which binds to the stalled Pol II and promotes assembly of the repair machinery. Given the complex nature of the TC-NER pathway and its unique function at the interface between transcription and repair, new approaches are required to gain in-depth understanding of the mechanism. Advances in genomic approaches provide an important opportunity to investigate how TC-NER is initiated upon damage-induced Pol II stalling and what factors are involved in this process. In this Review, we discuss new mechanisms of TC-NER revealed by genome-wide DNA damage mapping and new TC-NER factors identified by high-throughput screening. As TC-NER conducts strand-specific repair of mutagenic damage, we also discuss how this repair pathway causes mutational strand asymmetry in the cancer genome.
