Dynamic features of human mitochondrial DNA maintenance and transcription
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Mitochondria are the primary sites for cellular energy production and are required for many essential cellular processes. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is a 16.6 kb circular DNA molecule that encodes only 13 gene products of the approximately 90 different ...

Resistance to Nucleotide Excision Repair of Bulky Guanine Adducts Opposite Abasic Sites in DNA Duplexes and Relationships between Structure and Function. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The nucleotide excision repair of certain bulky DNA lesions is abrogated in some specific non-canonical DNA base sequence contexts, while the removal of the same lesions by the nucleotide excision repair mechanism is efficient in duplexes in which all ...

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2013 Base excision repair (BER) corrects DNA damage from oxidation, deamination and alkylation. Such base lesions cause little distortion to the DNA helix structure. BER is initiated by a DNA glycosylase that recognizes and removes the damaged base, leaving an abasic site that is further processed by short-patch repair or long-patch repair that largely uses

DNA Repair Repertoire of the Enigmatic Hydra
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Since its discovery by Abraham Trembley in 1744, hydra has been a popular research organism. Features like spectacular regeneration capacity, peculiar tissue dynamics, continuous pattern formation, unique evolutionary position, and an apparent lack of ...

Nature Communications, 2022 Nucleotide excision repair proteins are involved in the repair of UV-induced DNA damage. Here, the authors show that NER proteins, DDB2, XPC, and XPA play a vital role in the 8-oxoguanine repair by coordinating with base excision repair protein OGG1.

Cooperation and interplay between base and nucleotide excision repair pathways: From DNA lesions to proteins [PDF]
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2020 Base and nucleotide excision repair (BER and NER) pathways are normally associated with removal of specific types of DNA damage: small base modifications (such as those induced by DNA oxidation) and bulky DNA lesions (such as those induced by ultraviolet

The Role of DNA Damage and Repair in Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis
Antioxidants, 2022 The mortality rate of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) increases yearly due to ineffective treatment. Given that the lung is exposed to the external environment, it is likely that oxidative stress, especially the stimulation of DNA, would be of ...

Extended Frontobasal Approach for Skull Base Lesions
Indian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2021 Background Lesions involving the skull base can be approached by a variety of surgical corridors and extended frontobasal approach is one of them. It provides quite a wide exposure to lesions in the midline of anterior skull base, paranasal sinuses, and ...
