Abstract

ultraviolet radiation DNA repair G2 phase checkpoint MASTL post-replication repair
Ultraviolet radiation-induced DNA mutations are a primary environmental driver of melanoma. The reason for this very high level of unrepaired DNA lesions leading to these mutations is still poorly understood. The primary DNA repair mechanism for UV-induced lesions, the nucleotide excision repair pathway, appears intact in most melanomas. We have previously reported a post-replication repair mechanism that is commonly defective in melanoma cell lines. Here we have used a genome wide approach to identify the components of this post-replication repair mechanism. We have used differential transcript polysome loading to identify transcripts that are associated with the UV response, then functionally assessed these to identify novel components of this repair and cell cycle checkpoint network. We have identified multiple interaction nodes, including global genomic nucleotide excision repair and homologous recombination repair, and previously unexpected MASTL pathway as components of the response. Finally, we have used bioinformatics to assess the contribution of dysregulated expression of these pathways to the UV signature mutation load of a large melanoma cohort. We show that dysregulation of the pathway, especially the DNA damage repair components, are significant contributors to UV mutation load, and that dysregulation of the MASTL pathway appears to be a significant contributor to high UV signature mutation load.
