This was followed with or without 7 µM RO-3306 (CDK1i) treatment for 30 min, prior to collection. Mock Co-IP from non-transfected HEK293TN cells act as negative control (CTRL). d As in C, but reciprocal eGFP-TOPBP1 Co-IP analysis.

Figure Legend Snippet: a Representative images and bar plot illustrating the number of micronuclei per RPE1 p53 -/- FRT/TR WT or SLX4 T1260A knock in cell nucleus. Cells were treated with siCTRL or siCIP2A, 400 nM aphidicolin, in addition to either DMSO or 5 µM ART558 (Polθi) for 18 h (Parental WT (siCTRL + DMSO: n = 343, siCIP2A + DMSO: n = 394, siCTRL + Polθi: n = 372), SLX4 T1260A Cl.1 (siCTRL + DMSO: n = 385 and siCTRL + Polθi: n = 341) or SLX4 T1260A Cl.2 (siCTRL + DMSO: n = 399 and siCTRL + Polθi: n = 378) from three independent experiments). Statistical significance was determined using by one-way ANOVA, and the mean of each experiment is displayed as black dots and the mean of all three experiments is presented as bars with SEM. Scale bars are equivalent to 10 µm. b Proliferation analysis of RPE1 p53 -/- FRT/TR WT and T1260A cells, performed using the Incucyte live cell analysis system. Cells were treated with DMSO or with 5 µM ART558 (Polθi) in the presence of 400 nM aphidicolin.

Cells were treated with siCTRL, siSLX4 or siCIP2A in the presence of DMSO or 5 µM ART558 (Polθi). The mean confluence divided by confluence at day 0, from three independent experiments, is displayed with SEM. d Model: Cells enter mitosis with DNA damage, under replicated DNA or recombination intermediates where the CIP2A-TOPBP1 complex is recruited. CDK1 phosphorylation of SLX4 at T1260 regulates interaction with TOPBP1 BRCT 1/2 facilitating SMX component recruitment and MiDAS/BIR to safeguard genome stability. PLK1 phosphorylation of POLQ in mitosis facilitates TOPBP1 interaction and MMEJ . Loss of CIP2A impairs both pathways and leads to simultaneous deficiency in mitotic MiDAS/BIR and MMEJ promoting genome instability. Created in BioRender. Martin, P.
