DNA photolyase binds to and repairs cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers induced by UY radiation. Here we demonstrate that ih the yeastSaccharomyces cerevisiae,photolyase also binds to DNA damaged by the anticancer drugscis-diamminedichloroplatinum (cis-DDP) and nitrogen mustard (HN2) and by the alkylating agentN-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG). Surprisingly, mutations in photolyase were associated with resistance of yeast cells tocis-DDP, MNNG, 4-nitroquinoline oxide (4NQO), and HN2. Transformation of yeast photolyase mutants with the photolyase gene increased sensitivity to these agents. Thus, while the binding of photolyase to DNA damaged by UV radiation aids survival of the cell, binding to DNA damaged by other agents may interfere with cell survival, perhaps by making the lesions inaccessible to the nucleotide excision repair system.
