Abstract

Repair of DNA double-strand breaks is critical to genomic stability and the prevention of developmental disorders and cancer. A central pathway for this repair is homologous recombination (HR). Most knowledge of HR is derived from work in prokaryotic and eukaryotic model organisms. We carried out a genome-wide siRNA-based screen in human cells. Among positive regulators of HR we identified networks of DNA-damage-response and pre-mRNA-processing proteins, and among negative regulators we identified a phosphatase network. Three candidate proteins localized to DNA lesions, including RBMX, a heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein that has a role in alternative splicing. RBMX accumulated at DNA lesions through multiple domains in a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1-dependent manner and promoted HR by facilitating proper BRCA2 expression. Our screen also revealed that off-target depletion of RAD51 is a common source of RNAi false positives, raising a cautionary note for siRNA screens and RNAi-based studies of HR.

Figure 3.b. and 3.c. indicate that four HIRIP3 siRNA causes HR defect. Even though these HIRIP3 siRNA are also correlated with off target Rad51 depletion, only siHIRIP3-5 had 7 nucleotide seed match to 3‘UTR Rad51 off-targeting. Therefore, HR defects are 3-fold enriched for antisense seed sequence complementary to Rad51. However, Figure 3.b. also indicates three siRNAs defect HR depleted Rad51 without full seed complementary to the 3’UTR. Therefore, HIRIP3 siRNAs can change the mechanisms of Rad51 off-targeting.
