<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>The E3 ubiquitin ligase RAD18 mono-ubiquitinates PCNA to promote bypass of replication fork-stalling DNA lesions. On the other hand, RAD18 also contributes to DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair. RAD18 is recruited to ionizing radiation (IR)-induced DSB and colocalizes with ubiquitinated chromatin proteins. RAD18 interacts with the ubiquitinated chromatin proteins via its ubiquitin-binding Zinc finger (UBZ) domain and is proposed to propagate DNA DSB signalling and recruit DNA repair proteins. We found that purified human RAD18 protein complexed with RAD6B (RAD6B–RAD18) catalyzes mono- and poly-ubiquitination of histone H2A in vitro while UBZ domain-mutated RAD18 complexed with RAD6B protein catalyzes mono- but not poly-ubiquitination of histone H2A. Human RAD18−/−cells synchronized at the G1 phase show a reduced signal of ubiquitinated protein in chromatin after IR when compared to that of wild-type control cells. The reduced signal of ubiquitinated protein in RAD18−/−cells is rescued by the introduction of RAD18 cDNA but to a lesser extent by the introduction of cDNA coding RAD18 lacking UBZ domain. Taken together, these results indicate that RAD18 mediates DSB-induced ubiquitination of chromatin protein during the G1 phase.</jats:p>
