Mechanistic narrative

Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

NABP2 (hSSB1/OBFC2B) is a single-stranded DNA-binding protein that acts as an apical regulator of the genome stability response, operating upstream of the MRN complex and ATM at DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) (PMID:18449195, PMID:21051358). It is rapidly recruited to break sites independently of CtIP, MDC1, and MRN, and its loss abrogates ATM activation, MRN focus formation, and resection-dependent ssDNA/RPA generation, placing it at the head of the DSB signaling cascade (PMID:18449195, PMID:21051358). Mechanistically, hSSB1 directly binds NBS1 and stimulates MRN endonuclease activity through its C-terminal tail to drive resection and subsequent RAD51/BRCA1 loading for homologous recombination (PMID:21227926, PMID:23986477). Beyond DSBs, hSSB1 acts at hydroxyurea-stalled replication forks to enable ATR/Chk1 activation and fork restart (PMID:24753408), and participates in base excision repair by complexing with hOGG1 and binding 8-oxoguanine-containing DNA, a BER role that uniquely requires its redox-dependent oligomerization via C81/C99 whereas HR does not (PMID:26261212, PMID:27273218, PMID:28609781). hSSB1 stability is heavily regulated by post-translational modification: ATM phosphorylation at T117 counteracts FBXL5-SCF-mediated ubiquitin-proteasome degradation (PMID:18449195, PMID:25249620), DNA-PK phosphorylates S134 to promote survival after fork disruption (PMID:28448822), and PIAS2α-catalyzed SUMOylation at K79/K94 stabilizes the protein and promotes NBS1 recruitment (PMID:32576812). It functions as a stable subunit of the SOSS1 complex with INTS3, C9orf80, and INTS6, which is required for RAD51/BRCA1 recruitment and HR (PMID:19605351, PMID:19786574, PMID:23986477). hSSB1 also stabilizes BLM helicase (PMID:28506294), binds G-strand telomeric DNA and recruits TERT to maintain G-overhangs (PMID:25589350), and modulates checkpoint responses by protecting p53 and p21 from degradation and promoting p300-mediated p53 acetylation (PMID:21242961, PMID:23184057).

2008 hSSB1 (NABP2) is phosphorylated by ATM kinase at threonine 117 in response to DNA double-strand breaks; this phosphorylation is required for DNA damage-induced stabilization of hSSB1. hSSB1 accumulates in the nucleus and forms distinct foci at DSB sites. Depletion of hSSB1 abrogates ATM activation and phosphorylation of ATM targets after ionizing radiation, establishing hSSB1 as required for ATM-mediated DSB signaling. Cell-based phosphorylation assays, siRNA depletion, nuclear foci formation (immunofluorescence), ionizing radiation treatment, ATM kinase assay Nature High 18449195
2009 hSSB1 (NABP2) forms a stable complex with INTS3 and hSSBIP1 (C9ORF80), distinct from the hSSB2 complex. INTS3 depletion decreases the stability of hSSB1 and hSSBIP1, suggesting INTS3 provides a scaffold for proper complex assembly. Both complexes are required for efficient HR-dependent DSB repair and ATM-dependent signaling. Immunoprecipitation, siRNA depletion, cell survival assays, HR reporter assay, ATM phosphorylation assays The Journal of biological chemistry High 19605351
2009 hSSB1 was shown by tandem affinity purification to copurify with a subset of Integrator complex subunits and MISE (c9orf80/LOC58493). The INTS3-MISE-hSSB1 complex controls ATM activation and RAD51 recruitment to DNA damage foci. INTS3 regulates hSSB1 transcription, thereby controlling hSSB1 function. Tandem affinity purification of hSSB1 phosphomimetic and phospho-null mutants, mass spectrometry, siRNA depletion, immunofluorescence for RAD51 foci The Journal of cell biology High 19786574
2010 hSSB1 is rapidly recruited to DSB sites in all interphase cell cycle phases independently of CtIP, MDC1, and the MRN complex. However, hSSB1 depletion prevents MRN complex foci formation and recruitment to DSBs, and leads to defective DSB resection (loss of RPA foci and ssDNA generation), placing hSSB1 upstream of MRN in the DSB response pathway. siRNA depletion, laser microirradiation, live-cell and fixed immunofluorescence, BrdU ssDNA detection, RPA foci assay Nucleic acids research High 21051358
2011 hSSB1 directly binds NBS1 (a component of the MRN complex) in a DNA damage-independent manner, and greatly stimulates MRN endonuclease activity in vitro via its C-terminal tail. NBS1 mutations associated with Nijmegen breakage syndrome show weaker binding to hSSB1. Direct binding assays (pulldown), in vitro endonuclease assay with purified proteins, C-terminal deletion mutants, NBS1 disease-associated mutants Nucleic acids research High 21227926
2011 hSSB1 directly binds p21 protein and this interaction prevents p21 from ubiquitin-mediated degradation. hSSB1 knockdown-induced abrogation of G1/S and G2/M checkpoints is partially dependent on p21. Co-immunoprecipitation, siRNA knockdown, cell cycle analysis, ubiquitination assay Oncogene Medium 21242961
2012 hSSB1 interacts with p53 and protects it from ubiquitin-mediated degradation. hSSB1 also associates with the acetyltransferase p300 and is required for efficient p53 acetylation at lysine 382, promoting transcriptional activation of p21. hSSB1 knockdown-induced G2/M checkpoint abrogation is partially dependent on p53 or p300. Co-immunoprecipitation, ubiquitination assays, acetylation assays, siRNA knockdown, luciferase reporter assay for p21 transcription, cell cycle analysis Cell research Medium 23184057
2013 The core hSSB1 complex contains INTS6 in addition to INTS3 and C9orf80. INTS6 directly interacts with INTS3 and forms a stable trimeric complex with INTS3 and hSSB1 both in vitro and in vivo. This complex regulates accumulation of RAD51 and BRCA1 at DNA damage sites and homologous recombination.

2014 hSSB1 (NABP2) is required for ATR and Chk1 activation and recruitment of Mre11 and Rad51 at hydroxyurea-damaged replication forks. hSSB1-depleted cells fail to repair and restart stalled replication forks, accumulate DNA strand breaks and chromosome aberrations. siRNA depletion, hydroxyurea/camptothecin treatment, immunofluorescence for replication fork markers, Chk1/ATR phosphorylation assays, DNA fiber assay, chromosome analysis Nucleic acids research High 24753408
2014 FBXL5-containing SCF E3 ubiquitin ligase targets hSSB1 for ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. ATM-mediated phosphorylation of hSSB1 at T117 prevents FBXL5-mediated degradation.

2015 hSSB1 (NABP2) forms a complex with hOGG1 (human 8-oxoguanine glycosylase 1) and is required for hOGG1 localization to damaged chromatin. In vitro, hSSB1 directly binds DNA containing 8-oxoguanines and enhances hOGG1 enzymatic activity, establishing hSSB1 as a participant in base excision repair of oxidative DNA lesions. Co-immunoprecipitation, siRNA depletion, chromatin fractionation, in vitro DNA binding assays (EMSA), in vitro OGG1 activity assay with purified proteins Nucleic acids research High 26261212
2015 SSB1 (NABP2) binds specifically to G-strand telomeric DNA in vitro and associates with telomeres in vivo. SSB1 interacts with the TERT catalytic subunit and regulates its recruitment to telomeres. SSB1 deletion reduces TERT interaction with telomeres and leads to G-overhang loss. In vitro DNA binding assay (EMSA with telomeric oligonucleotides), Co-immunoprecipitation (SSB1-TERT), ChIP at telomeres, SSB1 deletion/depletion experiments, telomere G-overhang assay Cancer research Medium 25589350
2016 hSSB1 forms stable oligomers under oxidizing conditions, and this oligomerization is required for its function in base excision repair (8-oxoguanine removal) but is not required for DSB repair by homologous recombination. Monomeric hSSB1 shows decreased affinity for oxidized DNA. Size exclusion chromatography, EMSA with oxidized DNA, siRNA rescue experiments with oligomerization-deficient mutants, 8-oxoG repair assay, HR assay Scientific reports Medium 27273218
2016 ssDNA recognition by hSSB1 in solution is mediated by base-stacking of four key aromatic residues within the OB domain. This DNA binding mode in solution differs from that observed in the crystal structure of the SOSS1 complex. Solution-state NMR (chemical shift perturbation mapping), biophysical assays (ITC, fluorescence), functional DNA binding assays, comparison with crystal structure Nucleic acids research High 27387285
2017 hSSB1 forms a tetramer structurally similar to E. coli SSB, stabilized by cysteines C81 and C99 and charged/hydrophobic residues. The tetramer can still interact with INTS3, showing oligomerization does not preclude SOSS1 complex formation. Solution-state NMR, size exclusion chromatography, mutagenesis of C81/C99, Co-immunoprecipitation with INTS3, biophysical experiments Nucleic acids research High 28609781
2017 hSSB1 is directly phosphorylated by DNA-PK at serine residue 134. This modification is suppressed in undamaged cells by PPP-family protein phosphatases but is enhanced following replication fork disruption, promoting cellular survival. In vitro kinase assay with purified DNA-PK, phospho-specific antibodies, siRNA depletion of phosphatases, site-directed mutagenesis (S134A), cell survival assays after HU treatment DNA repair High 28448822
2017 hSSB1 forms a complex with BLM helicase in cells, and this interaction is altered in response to ionizing radiation. hSSB1 depletion leads to proteasome-mediated degradation of BLM and defective recruitment of BLM to chromatin following IR-induced DSBs and HU-induced stalled replication forks. Co-immunoprecipitation, siRNA depletion, proteasome inhibitor treatment, chromatin fractionation, immunofluorescence for BLM foci BMC molecular biology Medium 28506294
2015 The C-terminal tail of hSSB1 (NABP2) is essential for DNA binding ability and protein stability. Deletion of the C-terminus diminishes DNA binding. Both hNABP1 and hNABP2 exist as monomers in solution under the tested conditions, and hNABP2 has a disordered C-terminus. EMSA, ITC, circular dichroism spectroscopy, sucrose gradient centrifugation, C-terminal deletion mutants Biochimica et biophysica acta Medium 26550690
2015 When RPA is depleted, hSSB1/hSSB2 and their partner INTS3 form sub-nuclear foci, associate with the ATR-ATRIP complex, and recruit it to sites of genomic stress. This alternate ATR activation via hSSB1/2-INTS3 requires TopBP1 and the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 complex. siRNA depletion (RPA, hSSB1/2, INTS3), immunofluorescence for ATRIP/ATR foci, Co-immunoprecipitation, Chk1 phosphorylation assay Nucleic acids research Medium 25916848
2020 hSSB1 undergoes SUMOylation at K79 and K94, enhanced by DNA damage, catalyzed by PIAS2α and reversed by SENP2. SUMOylation stabilizes hSSB1 protein and enhances recruitment of NBS1 to DNA damage sites. Cells with SUMOylation-defective hSSB1 are sensitive to ionizing radiation.
