Structure of HPoleta incorporating dCTP opposite the 3-prime Pt(DACH)-GG
Structural highlights
Disease[POLH_HUMAN] Defects in POLH are the cause of xeroderma pigmentosum variant type (XPV) [MIM:278750]; also designated as XP-V. Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is an autosomal recessive disease due to deficient nucleotide excision repair. It is characterized by hypersensitivity of the skin to sunlight, followed by high incidence of skin cancer and frequent neurologic abnormalities. XPV shows normal nucleotide excision repair, but an exaggerated delay in recovery of replicative DNA synthesis. Most XPV patients do not develop clinical symptoms and skin neoplasias until a later age. Clinical manifestations are limited to photo-induced deterioration of the skin and eyes.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Function[POLH_HUMAN] DNA polymerase specifically involved in DNA repair. Plays an important role in translesion synthesis, where the normal high fidelity DNA polymerases cannot proceed and DNA synthesis stalls. Plays an important role in the repair of UV-induced pyrimidine dimers. Depending on the context, it inserts the correct base, but causes frequent base transitions and transversions. May play a role in hypermutation at immunoglobulin genes. Forms a Schiff base with 5'-deoxyribose phosphate at abasic sites, but does not have lyase activity. Targets POLI to replication foci.[6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Publication Abstract from PubMedOxaliplatin, together with cisplatin, is among the most important drugs used in cancer chemotherapy. Oxaliplatin, which contains a bulky diaminocyclohexane (DACH) moiety, kills cancer cells mainly by producing (DACH)Pt-GpG intrastrand cross-links that impede transcription. The Pt-GpG tolerance by translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) polymerases contributes to the resistance of tumors to platinum-based chemotherapy. In particular, human DNA polymerase eta (Poleta) readily bypasses Pt-GpG adducts. While many structural studies have addressed how TLS polymerases interact with cisplatin-DNA adducts, a structure of DNA polymerase in complex with oxaliplatin-DNA adducts has not been reported, limiting our understanding of bypass of the bulky (DACH)Pt-GpG lesion by TLS polymerases. Herein, we report the first structure of DNA polymerase bound to oxaliplatinated DNA. We determined a crystal structure of Poleta incorporating dCTP opposite the 3'G of the (DACH)Pt-GpG, which provides insights into accurate, efficient bypass of the oxaliplatin-GpG adducts by TLS polymerases. In the catalytic site of Poleta, the 3'G of the (DACH)Pt-GpG formed three Watson-Crick hydrogen bonds with incoming dCTP and the primer terminus 3'-OH was optimally positioned for nucleotidyl transfer. To accommodate the bulky (DACH)Pt-GpG lesion, the Val59-Trp64 loop in the finger domain of Poleta shifted from the positions observed in the corresponding Poleta-cisplatin-GpG and undamaged structures, suggesting that the flexibility of the Val59-Trp64 loop allows the enzyme's bypass of the (DACH)Pt-GpG adducts. Overall, the Poleta-oxaliplatin-GpG structure provides structural basis for TLS-mediated bypass of the major oxaliplatin-DNA adducts and insights into resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy in humans.
