520 $a The goal of my research was to obtain a quantitative understanding of the mechanisms of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair, and the activation of the tumor suppressor p53 in response to DSBs in human cells.
520 $a In Chapter 2, we investigated how the kinetics of repair, and the balance between the alternate DSB repair pathways, nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) and homologous recombination (HR), change with cell cycle progression. We developed fluorescent reporters to quantify DSBs, HR and cell cycle phase in individual, living cells. We show that the rates of DSB repair depend on the cell cycle stage at the time of damage. We find that NHEJ is the dominant repair mechanism in G1 and in G2 cells even in the presence of a functional HR pathway. S and G2 cells use both NHEJ and HR, and higher use of HR strongly correlates with slower repair. Further, we demonstrate that the balance between NHEJ and HR changes gradually with cell cycle progression, with a maximal use of HR at the peak of active replication in mid-S. Our results establish that the presence of a sister chromatid does not affect the use of HR in human cells.
520 $a Chapter 3 examines the sensitivity of the p53 pathway to DNA DSBs. We combined our fluorescent reporter for DSBs with a fluorescent reporter for p53, to quantify the level of damage and p53 activation in single cells. We find that the probability of inducing a p53 pulse increases linearly with the amount of damage. However, cancer cells do not have a distinct threshold of DSBs above which they uniformly induce p53 accumulation. We demonstrate that the decision to activate p53 is potentially controlled by cell-specific factors. Finally, we establish that the rates of DSB repair do not affect the decision to activate p53 or the dynamical properties of the p53 pulse.
520 $a Collectively, this work emphasizes the importance of collecting quantitative dynamic information in single cells in order to gain a comprehensive understanding of how different DNA damage response pathways function in a coordinated manner to maintain genomic integrity.
