(B, C) Scatter dot plots showing (B) the percentage of RPA+ Cyclin A2– cells and (C) the number of RPA foci per Cyclin A2– cell at 3 h post-IR. Red line: mean. ****p < 0.0001, ***p < 0.001, **p < 0.01, ns: not significant. P-values by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s correction. (D) Representative immunofluorescence images of 53BP1 (green) in BAP1-depleted MP41 cells ± PTC-209 treatment at 1 and 3 h post-IR. DAPI stains DNA. Scale bar: 10 µm. (E) Scatter dot plot quantifying 53BP1 foci per cell. Red line: median. ****p < 0.0001, **p < 0.01, ns: not significant. P-values by one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s correction. (F) Schematic model. In BAP1-proficient cells, BAP1 deubiquitylates H2AK119ub deposited by PRC1, permitting 53BP1 recruitment and NHEJ execution in G1. In BAP1-depleted cells, H2AK119ub accumulates, blocking 53BP1 loading, and driving aberrant DNA end resection with RPA recruitment in G1, where HR is not available.
