  1. Pericentromeric heterochromatin mostly comprises repeated DNA sequences prone to ectopic recombination. In Drosophila cells, ‘safe’ homologous recombination repair requires relocalization of heterochromatic repair sites to the nuclear periphery before Rad51 recruitment and strand invasion. DSBs are anchored to the nuclear periphery through the Nup107/160 nucleoporin complex. Previous studies suggested that the nuclear pore ‘basket’ protein Nup153 could also mediate anchoring, but Nup153 RNAi depletion also affects Nup107 association with the pores, preventing a direct assessment of Nup153 role. Using a separation of function mutant, here we show that Nup153 is not required for anchoring heterochromatic DSBs to the nuclear periphery.
