Research Abstract |
The Rad9Husl-Radl(9-1-1) complex, a DNA damage sensor interacts with TopBP1 to activate a signaling pathway. In this study, we found that 911/TopBP1 interaction plays an important role in the signal transduction after their localization to the sites of DNA damage without affecting their localization upon DNA damage. The binding ability of Rad9 to TopBP1 was strongly correlated with the activity of DNA damage response in human cells. Finally, our in vitro results suggest that 9-1-1 has a potential to interact with DNA and the binding ability may be regulated by the interaction with other factors.
