Abstract: | We investigated the physical association of the DNA topoisomerase IIbeta binding protein 1 (TopBP1), involved in DNA replication and repair but also in regulation of apoptosis, with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1). This enzyme plays a crucial role in DNA repair and interacts with many DNA replication/repair factors. It was shown that the sixth BRCA1 C-terminal (BRCT) domain of TopBP1 interacts with a protein fragment of PARP-1 in vitro containing the DNA-binding and the automodification domains. More significantly, the in vivo interaction of endogenous TopBP1 and PARP-1 proteins could be shown in HeLa-S3 cells by co-immunoprecipitation. TopBP1 and PARP-1 are localized within overlapping regions in the nucleus of HeLa-S3 cells as shown by immunofluorescence. Exposure to UVB light slightly enhanced the interaction between both proteins. Furthermore, TopBP1 was detected in nuclear regions where poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) synthesis takes place and is ADP-ribosylated by PARP-1. Finally, cellular (ADP-ribosyl)ating activity impairs binding of TopBP1 to Myc-interacting zinc finger protein-1 (Miz-1). The results indicate an influence of post-translational modifications of TopBP1 on its function during DNA repair. |
