NMR SOLUTION STRUCTURE OF THE SINGLE-STRAND BREAK REPAIR PROTEIN XRCC1-N-TERMINAL DOMAIN
Overview
XRCC1 functions in the repair of single-strand DNA breaks in mammalian, cells and forms a repair complex with beta-Pol, ligase III and PARP. Here, we describe the NMR solution structure of the XRCC1 N-terminal domain, (XRCC1 NTD). The structural core is a beta-sandwich with beta-strands, connected by loops, three helices and two short two-stranded beta-sheets, at each connection side. We show, for the first time, that the XRCC1 NTD, specifically binds single-strand break DNA (gapped and nicked). We also, show that the XRCC1 NTD binds a gapped DNA-beta-Pol complex. The DNA, binding and beta-Pol binding surfaces were mapped by NMR and found to be, well suited for interaction with single-strand gap DNA containing a 90, degrees bend, and for simultaneously making contacts with the palm-thumb, of beta-Pol in a ternary complex. The findings suggest a mechanism for, preferential binding of the XRCC1 NTD to flexible single-strand break DNA.
