Figure Lengend Snippet: PARPi-dependent MMEJ increase depends on HR. ( A ) MMEJ quantification using the reporter and experimental timeline from Fig. and in HT1080 cells following treatment with olaparib (5 µM), DNA-PKcsi (NU7441, 1 µM), or both (combo). Values are normalized to DMSO. Immunoblot of 53BP1 and histone H3 in parental HT1080 cells and isogenic TP53BP1 -KO cells. ( C ) MMEJ quantification in HT1080 parental cells and indicated isogenic 53BP1 -KO cells. Values are normalized to wild-type DMSO. Drug used: olaparib (5 µM). ( D ) Immunoblot of BRCA2 and actin in parental HT1080 cells and two isogenic BRCA2 -KO clonal lines. ( E ) MMEJ quantification in HT1080 parental cells and BRCA2 -KO clones. Values are normalized to wild-type DMSO. Drug used: olaparib (5 µM). Statistical analyses for panels (A), (C), and (E). Data represent three independent experiments, each the average of three technical replicates. Data are mean ± SEM. Statistical test, one way ANOVA with multiple comparison correction. ns: nonsignificant, * P <.05, ** P <.01, **** P <.0001.
