• Human PMS1-dependent non-canonical mismatch repair converges with MBD4 to repair 5-methylcytosine deamination

  CpG dinucleotides are mutational hotspots due to spontaneous deamination of 5-methylcytosine (5mC), resulting in T:G mismatches that can lead to CpG>TpG transitions. These mutations are a hallmark of aging and cancer and play a central role in the evolution of vertebrate genomes. We have previously uncovered MBD4 as the primary Base Excision Repair (BER) glycosylase responsible for 5mC deamination repair. Here, we employ an APOBEC1 deaminase fused to a catalytically dead Cas9 to induce targeted 5mC deamination independently of DNA replication, and track its repair in human cells. This approach reveals that MBD4 elicits a coordinated repair response with a non-canonical branch of Mismatch Repair (MMR) involving complexes MutLβ (MLH1-PMS1) and MutSα (MSH2-MSH6). We demonstrate that human PMS1 loss phenocopies the CpG>TpG hypermutation associated with MBD4 deficiency, revealing 5mC deamination repair as one of its main functions. Structural predictions with functional validation reveal that MBD4 activity is dependent on its physical interaction with MutLβ. In alignment with our experimental data, we show that the CpG>TpG mutational burden of MMR-deficient tumors is partly explained by replication-independent processes. Altogether, we uncover a novel function of non-canonical MMR that underscores its interplay with BER in safeguarding genomic integrity against damage to methylated DNA.

• Screening for Prostate Cancer-Specific Differentially Methylated Regions Based on BSAC

  Bisulfite Amplicon Sequencing on tissue samples from prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and bladder cancer.

• PROMETEO

  The SOLTI-1503 PROMETEO trial was a single-arm, preoperative, window-of-opportunity phase II study conducted at four sites in Spain between December 2018 and February 2022. It enrolled female patients with operable HER2-negative breast cancer (triple-negative or Luminal B-like) and residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Tumor biopsies were collected at five time points (baseline, post-NAC screening, C2D1, C3D1, and surgery) for translational research. This dataset includes raw paired-end RNA sequencing data (~110M reads per library) generated from the 113 biopy samples, archived in FASTQ format.

• Screening for Prostate Cancer-Specific Differentially Methylated Regions Based on MeDIP-seq

  Methylated DNA Immunoprecipitation Sequencing (MeDIP-seq) on tissue samples from prostate cancer, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and bladder cancer.

• FASTQ Files from Breast Tumor Biopsies Collected Across Five Timepoints in the PROMETEO Phase II Trial

  The dataset contains RNA sequencing raw data from tumor biopsies collected at five time points during the SOLTI-1503 PROMETEO trial: baseline (pre-NAC), post-NAC screening, Cycle 2 Day 1, Cycle 3 Day 1, and surgery. The study intervention consisted of intratumoral injections of T-VEC followed by intravenous administrations of atezolizumab prior to surgery. The data is obtained from tumor samples of patients included in the study: female breast cancer patients with residual disease after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, including both triple-negative and Luminal B-like subtypes. Each sample includes raw paired-end RNAseq reads (~110 million reads per library) aligned to the GRCh38/hg38 reference genome

• Duplex sequencing of selected breast cancer patients

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 22 samples from 11 breast cancer patients with adverse survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at various distances from primary lesions. Ultra-deep sequencing was performed to identify the presence of low-frequency pathogenic post-zygotic variants in PIK3CA and TP53 genes.

• WES of breast cancer patients and controls

  This study assessed the variant profiles of 408 samples from 126 breast cancer patients with various survival outcomes, including paired uninvolved mammary gland samples collected at proximal distances from primary lesions. As a reference, control samples from 15 mammoplasty individuals without cancer history were studied. Whole exome sequencing was performed to identify post-zygotic and germline variants present in the studied samples. Variant annotation in known databases, interpretation, and statistical analyses followed to discern the clinical relevance of called variants.
