The mechanisms contributing to transcription-associated genomic instability are both complex and incompletely understood. Although R-loops are normal transcriptional intermediates, they are also associated with genomic instability. Here, we show that BRCA1 is recruited to R-loops that form normally over a subset of transcription termination regions. There it mediates the recruitment of a specific, physiological binding partner, senataxin (SETX). Disruption of this complex led to R-loop-driven DNA damage at those loci as reflected by adjacent γ-H2AX accumulation and ssDNA breaks within the untranscribed strand of relevant R-loop structures. Genome-wide analysis revealed widespread BRCA1 binding enrichment at R-loop-rich termination regions (TRs) of actively transcribed genes. Strikingly, within some of these genes in BRCA1 null breast tumors, there are specific insertion/deletion mutations located close to R-loop-mediated BRCA1 binding sites within TRs. Thus, BRCA1/SETX complexes support a DNA repair mechanism that addresses R-loop-based DNA damage at transcriptional pause sites. Endogenous BRCA1 and senataxin (SETX) interact in a BRCA1-driven process BRCA1/SETX complexes are recruited to R-loop-associated termination regions (TRs) BRCA1/SETX complexes suppress transcriptional DNA damage arising at nearby R-loops BRCA1 breast cancers reveal indel mutations near BRCA1 TR binding regions Transcriptional R-loops represent a potential threat to genome integrity. Hatchi et al. show that BRCA1, in partnership with SETX, is engaged in a DNA repair mechanism that deals with R-loop-associated genomic instability at transcriptional termination pause sites.
