Journal Article
Parallel genome-wide screens identify synthetic viable interactions between the BLM helicase complex and Fanconi anemia
2017
Overview
Maintenance of genome integrity via repair of DNA damage is a key biological process required to suppress diseases, including Fanconi anemia (FA). We generated loss-of-function human haploid cells for FA complementation group C (FANCC), a gene encoding a component of the FA core complex, and used genome-wide CRISPR libraries as well as insertional mutagenesis to identify synthetic viable (genetic suppressor) interactions for FA. Here we show that loss of the BLM helicase complex suppresses FANCC phenotypes and we confirm this interaction in cells deficient for FA complementation group I and D2 (FANCI and FANCD2) that function as part of the FA I-D2 complex, indicating that this interaction is not limited to the FA core complex, hence demonstrating that systematic genome-wide screening approaches can be used to reveal genetic viable interactions for DNA repair defects.
Fanconi anemia is a complex disease affecting multiple DNA repair proteins that resolve DNA crosslinks which can block vital processes. Here the authors use parallel genome-wide screens that identify the BLM helicase complex as a suppressor of Fanconi anemia phenotypes.
