The XR-seq (eXcision Repair-sequencing) method has been extensively used to map nucleotide excision repair genome-wide in organisms ranging from Escherichia coli to yeast, Drosophila, Arabidopsis, mice, and humans. The basic feature of the method is to capture the excised oligomers carrying DNA damage, sequence them, and align their sequences to the genome. We wished to perform XR-seq in vitro with cell-free extract supplemented with a damaged DNA substrate so as to have greater flexibility in investigating factors that affect nucleotide excision repair in the cellular context [M. J. Smerdon, J. J. Wyrick, S. Delaney, J. Biol. Chem. 299, 105118 (2023)]. We report here the successful use of ultraviolet light-irradiated plasmids as substrates for repair in vitro and in vivo by E. coli and E. coli cell-free extracts and by mammalian cell-free extract. XR-seq analyses demonstrated common excision product length and sequence characteristics in vitro and in vivo for both the bacterial and mammalian systems. This approach is expected to help understand the effects of epigenetics and other cellular factors and conditions on DNA repair. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
