Global-genome repair of 5-azadC-induced DNMT1-DPCs monitored by PxP.a Schematic depiction of the experimental workflow used to monitor the repair of 5-azadC-induced DNMT1-DPCs. Cells were synchronized via a double thymidine block and released into early/mid S-phase for 3 h prior to induction of DNMT1-DPCs by a 30-min pulse of 5-azadC. Samples were collected either immediately after 5-azadC exposure or following a chase in drug-free media. Proteasome inhibitor (MG132, 5 µM), p97 inhibitor (p97i CB-5083, 5 µM) and SUMOylation inhibitor (SUMO-E1i ML-792, 5 µM) were added 1 h prior to induction of DPCs and kept during the chase with 5-azadC-free medium. Ubiquitylation inhibitor (Ub-E1i TAK-243, 1 µM) was added together with 5-azadC. b 5-azadC-induced DNMT1-DPC formation assessed by PxP.
