TDP2-dependent non-homologous end-joining protects against topoisomerase II-induced DNA breaks and genome instability in cells and in vivo. by Fernando Gómez-Herreros, Rocío Romero-Granados, Zhihong Zeng, Alejandro Alvarez-Quilón, Cristina Quintero, Limei Ju, Lieve Umans, Liesbeth Vermeire, Danny Huylebroeck, Keith W Caldecott, Felipe Cortés-Ledesma

“…Moreover, we show that the absence of TDP2 in cells impairs not only the capacity to repair TOP2-induced DSBs but also the accuracy of the process, thus compromising genome integrity. Most importantly, we find this TDP2-dependent NHEJ mechanism to be physiologically relevant, as Tdp2-deleted mice are sensitive to TOP2-induced damage, displaying marked lymphoid toxicity, severe intestinal damage, and increased genome instability in the bone marrow. …”
