DNA Base Excision Repair Modulates DNA Repeat Instability and Non-B Form DNA Structures [PDF]
The human genome is constantly attacked by endogenous and exogenous sources of DNA damage that generates DNA base lesions and strand breaks leading to genome instability, cell death, and diseases.

Structural and functional studies of enzymes in nucleotide metabolism [PDF]
Enzymes in nucleotide metabolism serve as the producers of the building blocks for DNA and RNA. From a medical perspective, nucleotide metabolism, and in particular salvage pathway enzymes, have attracted special interest, as nucleoside prodrugs given in

The Contribution of DNA Interstrand Crosslinks to Aging [PDF]
DNA damage is hypothesized to be a driver of aging. In support of this, DNA damage and genetic mutations, resulting from replication of that damage, both increase in the nuclear genome as organisms age.

Exploration of Ataxia Telangiectasia and Rad3-Related’s (ATR’s) Role in Cell Death Regulation: Implications in Development, Cancer, and Stroke [PDF]
From gametogenesis until death an organism’s genome is under constant bombardment from endogenous and exogenous sources of DNA damage. To maintain genomic integrity amid this damage, cells have evolved responses which allow them to either preserve ...

Approaches for rejuvenating the natural product discovery process from Streptomyces [PDF]
In 1940, a bacterial enzyme was identified which was capable of destroying penicillin (Abraham & Chain, 1940). This discovery actually predated both the awarding of the Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine and Physiology for its discovery and the year it became

Trinucleotide Repeat Instability Modulated by DNA Repair Enzymes and Cofactors [PDF]
Trinucleotide repeat (TNR) instability including repeat expansions and repeat deletions is the cause of more than 40 inherited incurable neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.

Trinucleotide Repeat Instability is Modulated by DNA Base Lesions and DNA Base Excision Repair [PDF]
Trinucleotide repeat (TNR) expansions are the cause of over 40 human neurodegenerative diseases, and are linked to DNA damage and base excision repair (BER). We explored the role of DNA damage and BER in modulating TNR instability through analysis of DNA
