Abstract
Significance The ability to repair breaks in the DNA phosphodiester backbone is essential for genome integrity. When breakage results in 5′-PO4 and 3′-OH termini, the ends can be rejoined to each other, or to novel partner strands, by classic DNA ligases that covalently activate the 5′-PO4 end by linkage to AMP. However, when breakage leaves 5′-OH and 3′-PO4 termini, the ends are considered “dirty” because they cannot be sealed by classic ligases. This paper shows that the unconventional ligase RtcB can evade the DNA dirty end chemistry problem by splicing DNA 3′-PO4 ends to DNA 5′-OH ends. RtcB accomplishes this by attaching a GMP nucleotide to the DNA 3′-PO4 end to activate it for nucleophilic attack by the 5′-OH. There are many biological contexts in which DNA damage generates “dirty” breaks with 3′-PO4 (or cyclic-PO4) and 5′-OH ends that cannot be sealed by DNA ligases. Here we show that the Escherichia coli RNA ligase RtcB can splice these dirty DNA ends via a unique chemical mechanism. RtcB transfers GMP from a covalent RtcB–GMP intermediate to a DNA 3′-PO4 to form a “capped” 3′ end structure, DNA3′pp5′G. When a suitable DNA 5′-OH end is available, RtcB catalyzes attack of the 5′-OH on DNA3′pp5′G to form a 3′–5′ phosphodiester splice junction. Our findings unveil an enzymatic capacity for DNA 3′ capping and the sealing of DNA breaks with 3′-PO4 and 5′-OH termini, with implications for DNA repair and DNA rearrangements.
