SUMO modification of PCNA reduces the accumulation of γH2AX foci. (A) HeLa cells stably expressing FLAG, FLAG-PCNA or FLAG-PCNA-SUMO1 were fixed 3 h after mock or (B) MMS treatments and stained with anti-FLAG (green), anti-γH2AX (red) and DAPI (blue). (C) Percentage of cell populations that showed more than two foci for γH2AX at 0.5, 1, 2, 3 and 5 h after MMS treatment was calculated from three independent experiments; error bars show standard deviations. (D) Effect of the expression of K164R PCNA in RAD18−/− HCT116 cells was revealed by γH2AX staining 3 h after MMS treatment as described above.
