Supplementary information

Spartan also known as SPRTN (DNA Sequence Nonspecific) is a metalloprotease enzyme weighing approximately 53 kDa. It is an important player in genome maintenance and DNA repair especially in the stress response to DNA replication impediments. SPRTN is widely expressed in various tissues with particularly high expression in proliferative tissues where DNA replication is important such as the liver and bone marrow. Its main mechanical role involves recognizing and processing DNA-protein crosslinks that may hinder replication and transcription processes.
Biological function summary

SPRTN is important for DNA replication fidelity and cellular response to DNA damage. It achieves this by being part of the DNA-protein crosslink repair pathway where it cooperates with other proteins to maintain genomic stability. This function ensures replication continues correctly and prevents harmful mutations. SPRTN operates as a protease to cleave proteins trapped on DNA thereby removing obstacles and allowing replication machinery to advance. This activity demonstrates its vital role in safeguarding genetic information.

Pathways

SPRTN integrates into the DNA damage response pathways such as the Fanconi Anemia pathway coordinating with other proteins to maintain genomic integrity. Additionally SPRTN associates with the homologous recombination repair pathway where it interacts with proteins like RAD51 and BRCA1 to facilitate effective DNA repair. These pathways are essential for managing DNA damage events to minimize the risk of genomic instabilities that may lead to disorders.

SPRTN mutations have strong links to a rare genetic disorder known as Ruijs-Aalfs Syndrome characterized by progeroid features and cancer predisposition due to accumulated DNA damage. This connection highlights its role in maintaining genomic stability. Moreover deficiency in SPRTN has relevance to cancer development as its impaired function leads to compromised DNA repair allowing mutations to accumulate. The loss of this protease's activity can correlate with destabilization of genomic maintenance partners like FANCD2 potentially contributing to oncogenesis.

Target data

DNA-dependent metalloendopeptidase that mediates the proteolytic cleavage of covalent DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) during DNA synthesis, thereby playing a key role in maintaining genomic integrity (PubMed : 27852435, PubMed : 27871365, PubMed : 27871366, PubMed : 30893605, PubMed : 32649882, PubMed : 36608669). DPCs are highly toxic DNA lesions that interfere with essential chromatin transactions, such as replication and transcription, and which are induced by reactive agents, such as UV light or formaldehyde (PubMed : 27852435, PubMed : 27871365, PubMed : 27871366, PubMed : 32649882, PubMed : 36608669). Associates with the DNA replication machinery and specifically removes DPCs during DNA synthesis (PubMed : 27852435, PubMed : 27871365, PubMed : 27871366, PubMed : 32649882). Catalyzes proteolytic cleavage of the HMCES DNA-protein cross-link following unfolding by the BRIP1/FANCJ helicase (PubMed : 36608669). Acts as a pleiotropic protease for DNA-binding proteins cross-linked with DNA, such as TOP1, TOP2A, histones H3 and H4 (PubMed : 27871366). Mediates degradation of DPCs that are not ubiquitinated, while it is not able to degrade ubiquitinated DPCs (By similarity). SPRTN activation requires polymerase collision with DPCs followed by helicase bypass of DPCs (By similarity). Involved in recruitment of VCP/p97 to sites of DNA damage (PubMed : 22902628, PubMed : 23042605, PubMed : 23042607, PubMed : 32152270). Also acts as an activator of CHEK1 during normal DNA replication by mediating proteolytic cleavage of CHEK1, thereby promoting CHEK1 removal from chromatin and subsequent activation (PubMed : 31316063). Does not activate CHEK1 in response to DNA damage (PubMed : 31316063). May also act as a 'reader' of ubiquitinated PCNA : recruited to sites of UV damage and interacts with ubiquitinated PCNA and RAD18, the E3 ubiquitin ligase that monoubiquitinates PCNA (PubMed : 22681887, PubMed : 22894931, PubMed : 22902628, PubMed : 22987070). Facilitates chromatin association of RAD18 and is required for efficient PCNA monoubiquitination, promoting a feed-forward loop to enhance PCNA ubiquitination and translesion DNA synthesis (PubMed : 22681887).
