Cover Story: Besides being part of the chromosomal passenger complex (CPC), recent findings suggest additional roles for Survivin in the DNA damage response, further contributing to therapy resistance. Ionizing radiation leads to increased expression of Survivin and its accumulation in heterochromatic nuclear foci. Survivin depletion not only results in impaired repair capacity and unphysiological genome replication via mitotic DNA synthesis, but also reduces replication fork speed in the S phase. Here, the CPC member INCENP mediates the interaction with the processivity factor PCNA, and Aurora B kinase liberates Pol η by phosphorylating its interaction partner POLDIP2 to resume the replication of damaged sites by translesion synthesis. Thus, we assigned a direct function to the CPC in the transition from stalled replication forks to translesion synthesis. View this paper
