Abstract
The eukaryotic genome is assembled in a nucleoprotein complex called chromatin, whose organization markedly influences the repair of DNA lesions. For instance, compact chromatin states, broadly categorized as heterochromatin, present a challenging environment for DNA damage repair. Through transcriptional silencing, heterochromatin also plays a vital role in the maintenance of genomic integrity and cellular homeostasis. It is thus of critical importance to decipher whether and how heterochromatin affects the DNA damage response (DDR) to understand how this chromatin state is preserved after DNA damage. Here, we present two laser micro-irradiation-based methods for imaging the DDR in heterochromatin domains in mammalian cells. These methods allow DNA damage targeting to specific subnuclear compartments, direct visualization of the DDR and image-based quantification of the repair response. We apply them to study DNA double-strand break repair pathways in facultative heterochromatin and the repair of UV photoproducts in constitutive heterochromatin. We discuss the advantages and limitations of these methods compared to other targeted approaches for DNA damage induction.

Abstract
Repair of genetic damage is coordinated in the context of chromatin, so cells dynamically modulate accessibility at DNA breaks for the recruitment of DNA damage response (DDR) factors. The identification of chromatin factors with roles in DDR has mostly relied on loss-of-function screens while lacking robust high-throughput systems to study DNA repair. In this study, we have developed two high-throughput systems that allow the study of DNA repair kinetics and the recruitment of factors to double-strand breaks in a 384-well plate format. Using a customized gain-of-function open-reading frame library ("ChromORFeome" library), we identify chromatin factors with putative roles in the DDR. Among these, we find the PHF20 factor is excluded from DNA breaks, affecting DNA repair by competing with 53BP1 recruitment. Adaptable for genetic perturbations, small-molecule screens, and large-scale analysis of DNA repair, these resources can aid our understanding and manipulation of DNA repair.

Abstract
Nuclear DNA viruses simultaneously access cellular factors that aid their life cycle while evading inhibitory factors by localizing to distinct nuclear sites. Adeno-Associated Viruses (AAVs), which are Dependoviruses in the family Parvovirinae, are non-enveloped icosahedral viruses, that have been developed as recombinant AAV vectors (rAAV) to express transgenes. AAV2 expression and replication occur in nuclear viral replication centers (VRCs), which relies on cellular replication machinery as well as coinfection by helper viruses such as adenoviruses or herpesviruses, or exogenous DNA damage to host cells. AAV2 infection induces a complex cellular DNA damage response (DDR), either in response to viral DNA or viral proteins expressed in the host nucleus during infection, where VRCs colocalize with DDR proteins. We have previously developed a modified iteration of a viral chromosome conformation capture (V3C-seq) assay to show that the autonomous parvovirus Minute Virus of Mice (MVM) localizes to cellular sites of DNA damage to establish and amplify its replication. Similar V3C-seq assays to map AAV2 show that the AAV2 genome colocalized with cellular sites of DNA damage under both non-replicating and replicating conditions. The AAV2 non-structural protein Rep 68/78, also localized to cellular DDR sites during both non-replicating and replicating infections, and also when ectopically expressed. Ectopically expressed Rep could be efficiently re-localized to DDR sites induced by micro-irradiation. Recombinant AAV2 gene therapy vector genomes derived from AAV2 localized to sites of cellular DNA damage to a lesser degree, suggesting that the Inverted Terminal Repeat (ITR) origins of replication were insufficient for targeting.

CDKL5 kinase controls transcription-coupled responses to DNA damage. EMBO J 2021; 40:e108271.

Abstract
Mutations in the gene encoding the CDKL5 kinase are among the most common genetic causes of childhood epilepsy and can also give rise to the severe neurodevelopmental condition CDD (CDKL5 deficiency disorder). Despite its importance for human health, the phosphorylation targets and cellular roles of CDKL5 are poorly understood, especially in the cell nucleus. Here, we report that CDKL5 is recruited to sites of DNA damage in actively transcribed regions of the nucleus. A quantitative phosphoproteomic screen for nuclear CDKL5 substrates reveals a network of transcriptional regulators including Elongin A (ELOA), phosphorylated on a specific CDKL5 consensus motif. Recruitment of CDKL5 and ELOA to damaged DNA, and subsequent phosphorylation of ELOA, requires both active transcription and the synthesis of poly(ADP‐ribose) (PAR), to which CDKL5 can bind. Critically, CDKL5 kinase activity is essential for the transcriptional silencing of genes induced by DNA double‐strand breaks. Thus, CDKL5 is a DNA damage‐sensing, PAR‐controlled transcriptional modulator, a finding with implications for understanding the molecular basis of CDKL5‐related diseases.

Abstract
DNA repair requires a coordinated effort from an array of factors that play different roles in the DNA damage response from recognizing and signaling the presence of a break, creating a repair competent environment, and physically repairing the lesion. Due to the rapid nature of many of these events, live-cell microscopy has become an invaluable method to study this process. In this review we outline commonly used tools to induce DNA damage under the microscope and discuss spatio-temporal analysis tools that can bring added information regarding protein dynamics at sites of damage. In particular, we show how to go beyond the classical analysis of protein recruitment curves to be able to assess the dynamic association of the repair factors with the DNA lesions as well as the target-search strategies used to efficiently find these lesions. Finally, we discuss how the use of mathematical models, combined with experimental evidence, can be used to better interpret the complex dynamics of repair proteins at DNA lesions.

Abstract
Despite proteotoxic stress and heat shock being implicated in diverse pathologies, currently no methodology to inflict defined, subcellular thermal damage exists. Here, we present such a single-cell method compatible with laser-scanning microscopes, adopting the plasmon resonance principle. Dose-defined heat causes protein damage in subcellular compartments, rapid heat-shock chaperone recruitment, and ensuing engagement of the ubiquitin-proteasome system, providing unprecedented insights into the spatiotemporal response to thermal damage relevant for degenerative diseases, with broad applicability in biomedicine. Using this versatile method, we discover that HSP70 chaperone and its interactors are recruited to sites of thermally damaged proteins within seconds, and we report here mechanistically important determinants of such HSP70 recruitment. Finally, we demonstrate a so-far unsuspected involvement of p97(VCP) translocase in the processing of heat-damaged proteins. Overall, we report an approach to inflict targeted thermal protein damage and its application to elucidate cellular stress-response pathways that are emerging as promising therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Research on repurposing the old alcohol-aversion drug disulfiram (DSF) for cancer treatment has identified inhibition of NPL4, an adaptor of the p97/VCP segregase essential for turnover of proteins involved in multiple pathways, as an unsuspected cancer cell vulnerability. While we reported that NPL4 is targeted by the anticancer metabolite of DSF, the bis-diethyldithiocarbamate-copper complex (CuET), the exact, apparently multifaceted mechanism(s) through which the CuET-induced aggregation of NPL4 kills cancer cells remains to be fully elucidated. Given the pronounced sensitivity to CuET in tumor cell lines lacking the genome integrity caretaker proteins BRCA1 and BRCA2, here we investigated the impact of NPL4 targeting by CuET on DNA replication dynamics and DNA damage response pathways in human cancer cell models. Our results show that CuET treatment interferes with DNA replication, slows down replication fork progression and causes accumulation of single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Such a replication stress (RS) scenario is associated with DNA damage, preferentially in the S phase, and activates the homologous recombination (HR) DNA repair pathway. At the same time, we find that cellular responses to the CuET-triggered RS are seriously impaired due to concomitant malfunction of the ATRIP-ATR-CHK1 signaling pathway that reflects an unorthodox checkpoint silencing mode through ATR (Ataxia telangiectasia and Rad3 related) kinase sequestration within the CuET-evoked NPL4 protein aggregates.

Abstract
DNA- and histone-related research frequently comprises the quantitative analysis of protein modifications, such as histone phosphorylation. Analysis of accumulation and disappearance of protein foci are used to monitor DNA damage and repair kinetics. If the protein of interest doesn't accumulate in foci, laser micro-irradiation of single nuclei provides an alternative method to monitor DNA repair proteins and histone dynamics at the DNA damage site. We have developed an automated evaluation tool for standardized, high-throughput analysis of micro-irradiated cells featuring single cell background subtraction and detection across multiple fluorescence channels, allowing for robust statistics.

Abstract
Maintenance of genomic integrity depends on the spatiotemporal recruitment and regulation of DNA damage response and repair proteins at DNA damage sites. These highly dynamic processes have been widely studied using laser microirradiation coupled with fluorescence microscopy. Laser microirradiation has provided a powerful methodology to identify and determine mechanisms of DNA damage response pathways. Here we describe methods used to analyze protein recruitment dynamics of fluorescently tagged or endogenous proteins to laser-induced DNA damage sites using laser scanning and fluorescence microscopy. We further describe multiple applications employing these techniques to study additional processes at DNA damage sites including transcription. Together, we aim to provide robust visualization methods employing laser-microirradiation to detect and determine protein behavior, functions and dynamics in response to DNA damage in mammalian cells.
