Crystal structure of human SHLD3-C-REV7-O-REV7-SHLD2 complex
Structural highlights
FunctionMD2L2_HUMAN Adapter protein able to interact with different proteins and involved in different biological processes. Mediates the interaction between the error-prone DNA polymerase zeta catalytic subunit REV3L and the inserter polymerase REV1, thereby mediating the second polymerase switching in translesion DNA synthesis. Translesion DNA synthesis releases the replication blockade of replicative polymerases, stalled in presence of DNA lesions. May also regulate another aspect of cellular response to DNA damage through regulation of the JNK-mediated phosphorylation and activation of the transcriptional activator ELK1. Inhibits the FZR1- and probably CDC20-mediated activation of the anaphase promoting complex APC thereby regulating progression through the cell cycle. Regulates TCF7L2-mediated gene transcription and may play a role in epithelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Publication Abstract from PubMedShieldin, including SHLD1, SHLD2, SHLD3 and REV7, functions as a bridge linking 53BP1-RIF1 and single-strand DNA to suppress the DNA termini nucleolytic resection during non-homologous end joining (NHEJ). However, the mechanism of shieldin assembly remains unclear. Here we present the crystal structure of the SHLD3-REV7-SHLD2 ternary complex and reveal an unexpected C (closed)-REV7-O (open)-REV7 conformational dimer mediated by SHLD3. We show that SHLD2 interacts with O-REV7 and the N-terminus of SHLD3 by forming beta sheet sandwich. Disruption of the REV7 conformational dimer abolishes the assembly of shieldin and impairs NHEJ efficiency. The conserved FXPWFP motif of SHLD3 binds to C-REV7 and blocks its binding to REV1, which excludes shieldin from the REV1/Pol zeta translesion synthesis (TLS) complex. Our study reveals the molecular architecture of shieldin assembly, elucidates the structural basis of the REV7 conformational dimer, and provides mechanistic insight into orchestration between TLS and NHEJ.
