(Submitter supplied) The classical non-homologous end-joining (cNHEJ) pathway is a major DNA double-strand break repair pathway in mammalian cells and is required for lymphocyte development and maturation. The
DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK) is a cNHEJ factor that encompasses the Ku70-Ku80 (KU) heterodimer and the large
catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs). In mouse models, loss of DNA-PKcs (DNA-PKcs-/-) abrogates end-processing (e.g., hairpin-opening), but not end-ligation, while expression of the kinase-dead DNA-PKcs protein (DNA-PKcsKD/KD) abrogates end-ligation, suggesting a kinases-dependent structural function of DNA-PKcs during cNHEJ.
