Résumé

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are a deleterious form of DNA damage, which must be robustly addressed to ensure genome stability. Defective repair can result in chromosome loss, point mutations, loss of heterozygosity or chromosomal rearrangements, which could lead to oncogenesis or cell death. We explore the requirements for the successful repair of DNA DSBs by non-homologous end joining and homology-directed repair (HDR) mechanisms in relation to genome folding and dynamics. On the occurrence of a DSB, local and global chromatin composition and dynamics, as well as 3D genome organization and break localization within the nuclear space, influence how repair proceeds. The cohesin complex is increasingly implicated as a key regulator of the genome, influencing chromatin composition and dynamics, and crucially genome organization through folding chromosomes by an active loop extrusion mechanism, and maintaining sister chromatid cohesion. Here, we consider how this complex is now emerging as a key player in the DNA damage response, influencing repair pathway choice and efficiency.
