Episomal maintenance and DNA replication of EBV origin of plasmid replication (OriP) plasmid maintenance is mediated by the viral encoded origin binding protein, EBNA1, and unknown cellular factors. We found that telomeric repeat binding factor 2 (TRF2), TRF2-interacting protein hRap1, and the telomere-associated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (Tankyrase) bound to the dyad symmetry (DS) element of OriP in an EBNA1-dependent manner. TRF2 bound cooperatively with EBNA1 to the three nonamer sites (TTAGGGTTA), which resemble telomeric repeats. Mutagenesis of the nonamers reduced plasmid maintenance function and increased plasmid sensitivity to genotoxic stress. DS affinity-purified proteins possessed poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activity, and EBNA1 was subject to NAD-dependent posttranslational modification in vitro. OriP plasmid maintenance was sensitive to changes in cellular PARP/Tankyrase activity. These findings imply that telomere-associated proteins regulate OriP plasmid maintenance by PAR-dependent modifications.

TRF2 (TERF2) binds to telomeric repeats and is critical for telomere integrity. Evidence suggests that it also localizes to non-telomeric DNA damage sites. However, this recruitment appears to be precarious and functionally controversial. We find that TRF2 recruitment to damage sites occurs by a two-step mechanism: the initial rapid recruitment (phase I), and stable and prolonged association with damage sites (phase II). Phase I is poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP)-dependent and requires the N-terminal basic domain. The phase II recruitment requires the C-terminal MYB/SANT domain and the iDDR region in the hinge domain, which is mediated by the MRE11 complex and is stimulated by TERT. PARP-dependent recruitment of intrinsically disordered proteins contributes to transient displacement of TRF2 that separates two phases. TRF2 binds to I-PpoI-induced DNA double-strand break sites, which is enhanced by the presence of complex damage and is dependent on PARP and the MRE11 complex. TRF2 depletion affects non-sister chromatid homologous recombination repair, but not homologous recombination between sister chromatids or non-homologous end-joining pathways. Our results demonstrate a unique recruitment mechanism and function of TRF2 at non-telomeric DNA damage sites.
