Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The human LMNA gene encodes the essential nuclear envelope proteins lamin A and C (lamin A/C). Mutations in LMNA result in altered nuclear morphology, but how this imparts the mechanisms that maintain genomic stability is unclear. Here we report that lamin A/C-deficient cells have a normal response to ionizing radiation but are sensitive to agents that cause inter-strand cross links (ICLs) or replication stress. In response to treatment with ICL agents (cis-platin, campthotecin, mitomycin), lamin A/C-deficient cells displayed normal γ-H2AX foci formation but a higher frequency of cells with delayed γ-H2AX removal, decreased recruitment of the FANCD2 repair factor and a higher frequency of chromosome aberrations. Similarly, following hydroxyurea induced replication stress, lamin A/C deficient cells had an increased frequency of cells with delayed disappearance of γ-H2AX foci and defective repair factor recruitment (Mre11, CtIP, Rad51, RPA and FANCD2). Replicative stress also resulted in a higher frequency of chromosomal aberrations as well as defective replication restart. Taken together, the data suggest that lamin A/C has a role in the restart of stalled replication forks, a prerequisite for initiation of DNA damage repair by the homologous recombination pathway, which is intact in lamin A/C-deficient cells. We propose that lamin A/C is required for maintaining genomic stability following replication fork stalling, induced by either ICL damage or replicative stress, in order to facilitate fork regression prior to DNA damage repair.
