(C) 53BP1 and pATM foci in the adult and P4 retina. Immunofluorescence images of pATM
(green) and 53BP1 (red) co-staining in the adult (i) or P4 retina (ii) of irradiated or unirradiated
mice. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). In the irradiated adult retina, 53BP1 and
pATM foci were restricted to cells within the INL (except for bipolar cells) and GCL. In the
irradiated P4 retina, both 53BP1 and pATM foci were present in all cells although a gradient with
diminished signals at the apical part was evident. Unirradiated samples exhibited almost no
spontaneous foci but a pan-nuclear 53BP1 signal in those cell types that formed 53BP1 foci
after irradiation. Zoomed images display the retinal sections indicated by boxes. Open boxes
are used when the zoom shows an area which extends beyond the displayed retinal section.
Scale bars: 20 µm. (iii) pATM antibody specificity. Immunofluorescence images of retinae from

mice were transferred in culture, irradiated with 10 or 20 Gy, incubated for repair, and harvested at distinct
time points (15 min, 8 h and 24 h). After sample preparation, the DNA was separated on a gel. Note the
higher amount of broken DNA entering the gel for the 24 h-retina sample compared with the 24 h-brain
sample (upper panel). Quantification of the fraction of DNA released from the gel plug into the gel is a
measure for the level of DNA fragmentation (lower panel). Note that rod photoreceptors account for about
80% of all cells in the adult retina [12]. Data represent the mean +/- SEM from ≥2 experiments.

Figure S5 (related to Figure 5). (A) pKAP1 antibody specificity. Immunofluorescence images of
retinae from wt and AT mice stained against pKAP1 (red) at 15 min after 1 Gy. Nuclei were
counterstained with DAPI. Note the absence of IR-induced pKAP1 staining in the retina of AT mice.
Scale bar: 5 µm. (B) Recruitment of KAP1 and pKAP1 to laser-induced DSBs. Hoechst pre-
sensitized retinal explants of P4 mice were fixed 5 min after micro-irradiation with a 405 nm diode
laser and subsequently stained against gH2AX and KAP1 or pKAP1. Enlarged images of single cells
of the explants showed that both KAP1 and pKAP1 (red) accumulated at laser-induced DNA damage
sites marked by gH2AX (green). Scale bar: 2 µm. (C) Localization of KAP1 in cells of the adult
retina. Immunofluorescence images of KAP1, H3K4me3, and H3K9me3 staining (red) in rod and
cone photoreceptors (left panels) and in cells of the INL (right panels) of the adult retina.
Counterstaining of nuclei with DAPI (blue) allowed the discrimination between rods and cones by
nuclear morphology (cones with several chromocenters are encircled in red). Note that all analyzed
cell types showed enrichment of KAP1 in DAPI-weak regions that stained positive for the euchromatin
marker H3K4me3 but negative for the heterochromatin marker H3K9me3. Rod photoreceptors
showed only marginal levels of KAP1 staining. Scale bar: 2 µm. (D) Localization of KAP1 in cells of
the tissue which surrounds the adult or P4 retina. Immunofluorescence images of KAP1 staining
(red) in cells of the tissue surrounding the retina of adult (left panels) or P4 (right panels) mice. Nuclei
were counterstained with DAPI (blue). KAP1 staining was most prominent in DAPI-weak regions of
adult mice and in DAPI-rich regions of P4 mice. Scale bar: 2 µm.

Supplemental Experimental Procedures
Cell culture
ATM-/-, H2AX-/-, 53BP1-/-, and MDC1-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs, kindly provided by P.
A. Jeggo, Brighton, UK) were cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium (DMEM) with 10%
fetal calf serum (FCS), 1% L-glutamine, 1% NEAAs and 1% Pen/Strep. Human glioblastoma cells
(DNA-PKcs-deficient M059J and DNA-PKcs-proficient M059K, a gift from P. A. Jeggo) were
cultured in minimal essential medium (MEM) containing 10% FCS, 1% L-glutamine, 1% NEAAs
and 1% Pen/Strep.
Immunoblotting analysis
For Western blotting of retina samples, adult and P4 mice were sacrificed and their eyes were
removed. Isolation of the retina was performed in ice-cold F12 medium under the binocular.
Isolated retinae were placed in Dulbeccos Modified Eagle Medium, supplemented with 10%
(vol/vol) fetal calf serum, 1% (vol/vol) L-glutamine, 100 units/ml penicillin and 0.1 mg/ml
streptomycine. Retinae were cultivated for 30 min at 37 C, 90% humidity and 5% CO2. For
Western blotting of MEFs and human glioblastoma cells, wt and knockout cells were grown to
80% confluency. Cells and retinal explants were irradiated with 1 Gy and harvested after 15 min.
They were sonicated three times for 1 min each in cell lysis buffer (500 mM EDTA, 1 mM
β‐mercaptoethanol, 5% glycine, 0.5 mM PMSF, 1 μM Na3VO4, 1x protease inhibitor Complete®,
1 x PhosphoStop (Roche), pH 8,5). After centrifugation of the cell extracts for 30 min at 4 C with
15.7 g, the protein concentration was determined and the cell lysates were boiled with SDS
Laemmli loading buffer [4% (w/v) SDS, 200 mM DTT, 120 mM Tris/HCl, pH 6.8, 10 mM β-
mercaptoethanol, 20% (v/v) glycerin, 0.02% bromophenol blue] for 5 min at 95 C (target proteins
>200 kD at 80 C). Proteins were separated via SDS–PAGE and transferred to a nitrocellulose
membrane. The membrane was blocked for 1 h in 5% low fat milk or 5% BSA in TBS/0.1%
Tween-20 and immunoblotted with primary antibody in TBS/0.1% Tween-20/2.5% low fat milk
over night at 4 C, followed by HRP-conjugated secondary antibody incubation in PBS/0.1 %
Tween-20/5% low fat milk for 1 h. The immunoblots were developed using Lumi Light (Roche).
Signal detection was carried out with a chemi smart system (Vilber Lourmat).

Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis
Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was performed with explanted retinae and brains of adult mice.
Retinal explants were isolated and cultured as described for Western blotting. Brains were sliced
using razor blades before culturing. After 30 min in culture medium, samples were irradiated with
20 Gy at the same settings used for Western blotting and in vivo irradiation. At the end of the
repair time (15 min, 8 h and 24 h), samples were collected in ice-cold F12 medium. Retinae were
trypsinized for 5 min at 37 C (36 units/ml, Cell Systems). Digestion was stopped by adding FCS.
After several washes with ice-cold F12 medium, trituration was done within HBSS medium with a
fire-polished Pasteur pipette. Brain slices were cut into small pieces using micro-scissors and
incubated in an enzyme mix containing trypsin (90 units/ml, Cell Systems), hyaluronidase (600
units/ml, Roche) and collagenase (90 units/ml, Cell Systems) for 10 min. Trituration with fire-
polished Pasteur pipettes followed before cells were separated from residual tissue clumps with
cell strainers (40 and 20 µm, BD Bioscience). After centrifugation, cell pellets were embedded in
agarose plugs and lysed. Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis was carried out with a Power supply
system in 0.8% agarose gels. The gels were run at 14 C with linearly increasing pulse times from
50 to 5000 s for 66 h at field strength of 1.5 V/cm. Gels were stained with ethidium bromide and
photographed with a charge-coupled device camera under UV transillumination. Quantitative
analysis of released DNA fractions was performed with ImageJ.
Inhibitor treatment of retinal explants
For inhibitor studies, retinae were isolated and cultured as described for Western blotting. 10 µM
of the ATM inhibitor Ku60019 (Tocris) and 5 µM of the DNA-PK inhibitor Nu7441 (Tocris) were
added to the culture medium 1.5 h before IR. 15 min after irradiation, explants were placed in 5%
(vol/vol) neutral buffered formalin for 16 h. Formalin-fixed tissues were embedded in paraffin and
sectioned at a thickness of 4 μm.
Laser irradiation of retinal explants
Retinal explants were isolated and cultured as described for Western blotting. Explants were pre-
sensitized with 10 µg/ml Hoechst dye 33258 (Invitrogen) for 10 min at 37 C, 90% humidity and
5% CO2 followed by two washing steps with medium. Micro-irradiation was performed by using an
inverted confocal microscope (Leica TCS SP5 II) at 37 C and a 405 nm diode laser (laser power
100%) focused through a 63x Plan-Apochromat oil objective. Several fields of explants were
scanned in parallel lines. Retinal explants were fixed in 5% (vol/vol) neutral buffered formalin 5
min after irradiation and stained for immunfluorescence microscopy (see Immunofluorescence
analysis of tissues - without heating step in citrate buffer).
Serial immunostaining
For serial immunostaining of the retina (only applied for Fig. S1B, panel v), dewaxed sections
were first incubated with monoclonal mouse Chx10 antibody, followed by its detection with
secondary antibody. Then simultaneous staining with monoclonal mouse Pax6 and polyclonal
rabbit 53BP1 antibody was carried out, followed by their detection with secondary antibodies.
Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI.
