Abstract

The interaction between tumor suppressor BRCA2 and DSS1 is essential for RAD51 recruitment and repair of DNA double stand breaks (DSBs) by homologous recombination (HR). We have generated mice with a leucine to proline substitution at position 2431 of BRCA2, which disrupts this interaction. Although a significant number of mutant mice die during embryogenesis, some homozygous and hemizygous mutant mice undergo normal postnatal development. Despite lack of radiation induced RAD51 foci formation and a severe HR defect in somatic cells, mutant mice are fertile and exhibit normal RAD51 recruitment during meiosis. We hypothesize that the presence of homologous chromosomes in close proximity during early prophase I may compensate for the defect in BRCA2-DSS1 interaction. We show the restoration of RAD51 foci in mutant cells when Topoisomerase I inhibitor-induced single strand breaks are converted into DSBs during DNA replication. We also partially rescue the HR defect by tethering the donor DNA to the site of DSBs using streptavidin-fused Cas9. Our findings demonstrate that the BRCA2-DSS1 complex is dispensable for RAD51 loading when the homologous DNA is close to the DSB.
