Abstract


Using budding yeast, we show that Arp2/3 actin branching complex has an evolutionarily conserved role in promoting chromosome mobility of double-strand breaks (DSBs). The radius of confinement of a broken chromosome is reduced by inhibiting Arp2/3 or by auxin-induced degron depletion of the nucleation promoting factor Las17WASP or type-1 myosins. Arp2/3 and Las17 are required both to initiate and maintain 5'to 3' resection of DSB ends, whereas depleting Myo3 or Myo5 impairs broken chromosome motion without affecting resection. Conversely, inhibiting Exo1- and Dna2-dependent long-range resection reduces DSB mobility. Inactivating Arp2/3 before DSB induction leads to shortened checkpoint arrest, activating the Tel1ATM/Mre11 (TM) checkpoint. Shortened checkpoint arrest, but not reduced broken chromosome mobility per se, results in reduced interchromosomal homologous recombination. These results suggest that regulating the Arp2/3 complex plays a key role in the processing of DSB ends that is correlated with an increase in DSB mobility and DSB repair.
