Article Title: A truncating MEIOB mutation responsible for familial primary ovarian insufficiency abolishes its interaction with its partner SPATA22 and their recruitment to DNA double-strand breaks

doi: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.03.075

Figure Lengend Snippet: The MEIOB-truncating mutation disrupts MEIOB-SPATA22 recruitment to DNA damage foci. a-b- The truncated form of MEIOB is stable when expressed in HeLa cells. a- Western blot showing the expression of the wild-type (MEIOB MF ) and the truncated forms (MEIOB MF-mut ) of MEIOB transfected in HeLa cells. The ProSieve QuadColor protein marker 4,6 kDa–300 kDa (Lonza) was run on the left (Ladder). b- MEIOB MF or MEIOB MF-mut and SPATA22 were co-expressed from a single plasmid MEIOB∧SPATA22 in HeLa cells before exposure to etoposide (25 μM). Cells were fixed in PFA without pre-permeabilisation to retain both cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions. Antibodies were used to immunostain MEIOB (red) and SPATA22 (white). Yellow arrows highlight transfected cells expressing both MEIOB and SPATA22. c-d- The truncation prevents MEIOB recruitment with SPATA22 to DSBs. MEIOB MF or MEIOB MF-mut and SPATA22 HA were expressed in HeLa cells before exposure to etoposide. Cells were permeabilised before fixation in PFA to analyse the chromatin-associated fraction of proteins. RPA foci are formed at DNA damage sites. c- MEIOB or SPATA22 alone are not recruited to DNA damage sites. d- When co-expressed, MEIOB MF and SPATA22 are recruited to DNA-damage sites and colocalise with RPA. This colocalisation is not observed for the truncated MEIOB MF-mut . Antibodies are used to immunostain MEIOB (red), SPATA22 (white), and RPA (green). Scale bar = 10 μm in all panels.
