Extended Data Fig. 8: RASER-FISH analysis of 53BP1-MDs at site-specific DSBs in KIF23 and KIF11 loci.

a, Depiction of a 0.45-Mb TAD from a reference cell line (adapted from Yue laboratory 3D genome browser, see Methods) harbouring the KIF23 gene (top) and a 0.4-Mb TAD harbouring the KIF11 gene (bottom). Sites of CRISPR–Cas9 site-specific DSBs and a position of each RASER-FISH probe are indicated. b, DAPI-stained U2OS cells transfected with Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complexes with control, KIF23-, or KIF11-targeting guide RNAs (gRNA). Arrows indicate examples of mitotic aberrations inflicted by KIF23 and KIF11 knockout. c, d, 3D-SIM of the KIF23-TAD (c) and the KIF11-TAD (d) RASER-FISH probes in cells treated as in Fig. 3a, b but at loci without DNA damage (no 53BP1 signal). Dual-colour FISH probes FP-A and FP-B are located within the same TAD in c; FP-C and FP-D in in two adjacent TADs in d. e, Widefield microscopy of immunostained 53BP1-MDs at the damaged KIF23-TAD locus labelled by FP-B in U2OS and RPE1-hTERT cells 3 h after transfection with KIF23 gRNA–Cas9. Insets (MD1–3) are magnified 53BP1-MDs shown in xy, xz and yz orientations. f, Widefield microscopy of immunostained 53BP1-MDs at the damaged KIF11-TAD locus labelled by FP-C in U2OS cells 3 h after transfection with KIF11 gRNA–Cas9. Insets (MD1–3) were generated as in e. g, 3D-isosurface projections (V1–3) of 3D-SIM images of FP-C- and FP-D-labelled KIF11 TADs after DNA damage induction as shown in Fig. 3b. Scale bars, 5 μm in whole-nucleus images (e, f), 200 nm in insets (e, f) and in c, d, 20 μm in b. Experiments in b–f were biologically replicated twice with similar results.
