Abstract
After exposure to DNA-damaging agents, the p53 tumor suppressor protects against neoplastic transformation by inducing growth arrest and apoptosis. A series of investigations has also demonstrated that, in UV-exposed cells, p53 regulates the removal of DNA photoproducts from the genome overall (global nucleotide excision repair), but does not participate in an overlapping pathway that removes damage specifically from the transcribed strand of active genes (transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair). Here, the highly sensitive ligation-mediated PCR was employed to quantify, at nucleotide resolution, the repair of UVB-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) in genetically p53-deficient Li–Fraumeni skin fibroblasts, as well as in human lung fibroblasts expressing the human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 oncoprotein that functionally inactivates p53. Lung fibroblasts expressing the HPV E7 gene product, which similarly inactivates the retinoblastoma tumor-suppressor protein (pRb), were also investigated. pRb acts downstream of p53 to mediate G 1 arrest, but has no demonstrated role in DNA repair. Relative to normal cells, HPV E6-expressing lung fibroblasts and Li–Fraumeni skin fibroblasts each manifested defective CPD repair along both the transcribed and nontranscribed strands of the p53 and/or c- jun loci. HPV E7-expressing lung fibroblasts also exhibited reduced CPD removal, but only along the nontranscribed strand. Our results provide striking evidence that transcription-coupled repair, in addition to global repair, are p53-dependent in UV-exposed human fibroblasts. Moreover, the observed DNA-repair defect in HPV E7-expressing cells reveals a function for this oncoprotein in HPV-mediated carcinogenesis, and may suggest a role for pRb in global nucleotide excision repair.
