| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Homology-directed repair (HDR) is critical for the repair of DNA double-strand breaks, while HDR between similar but non-identical sequences can give rise to chromosome instability. The quality of HDR is maintained by the mismatch repair (MMR) pathway. However, the molecular mechanism of these reactions remains largely uncertain. In this study, we recapitulated an HDR reaction in Xenopus egg extracts, identified factors that maintain the accuracy of HDR, and studied the quality-control mechanism of HDR. We also discovered a novel mechanism that assists in the MMR reaction on chromatin. These studies contribute to the understanding of the MMR-dependent quality-control system for HDR and DNA replication.

ゲノムの塩基配列情報の正確な継承と維持は生物にとって必須であるのみならず、ヒトの健康にも大きく関連する。本研究では、DNAの複製と、DNAの切断修復の二つの反応の正確性維持に重要な「ミスマッチ修復」システムの動作原理を、特に真核生物の染色体基本構造であるクロマチンに注目して解析し、新たなミスマッチ修復補助システムを同定するに至った。またDNA切断修復の正確性維持機構についても関与する因子の同定など、メカニズムの理解が進展した。これらの成果は、基礎生物学における学問的知見を発展させるのみならず、ゲノム不安定性に関連するヒト疾患の理解にも寄与する。
