Chemical Biology of Mammalian DNA Repair
Damage to the heterocyclic bases of DNA in the genome is mainly corrected by the base excision repair (BER) or nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathways.

The Base Excision Repair Pathway in the Nematode Caenorhabditis elegans
Exogenous and endogenous damage to the DNA is inevitable. Several DNA repair pathways including base excision, nucleotide excision, mismatch, homologous and non-homologous recombinations are conserved across all organisms to faithfully maintain the ...

Base Excision Repair Pathways [PDF]
DNA repair is a process vital to the cell since the genetic material is the target of a multitude of daily attacks. Cells have evolved into possessing distinct but simultaneously intercalating ways of dealing with repair of DNA lesions. These repair pathways may include practices dealing with single strand damage (Base Excision Repair, Nucleotide ...

This study explores the distinct molecular mechanisms underlying Lynch syndrome‐associated and sporadic colorectal cancer (CRC). By highlighting the therapeutic potential of targeting the PI3K‐Akt pathway in Lynch syndrome‐associated CRC and the Wnt pathway in sporadic CRC, the findings open avenues for personalised treatment strategies, aiming to ...

RAS transformation requires CUX1-dependent repair of oxidative DNA damage.
The Cut homeobox 1 (CUX1) gene is a target of loss-of-heterozygosity in many cancers, yet elevated CUX1 expression is frequently observed and is associated with shorter disease-free survival.

High-resolution mapping demonstrates inhibition of DNA excision repair by transcription factors
DNA base damage arises frequently in living cells and needs to be removed by base excision repair (BER) to prevent mutagenesis and genome instability.

Immunoregulatory mechanisms of the arachidonic acid pathway in cancer
The central role of the arachidonic acid (AA) pathway in anticancer immunity. Enzymes and metabolites of the AA pathway can play both immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory roles in the tumor microenvironment. Therefore, their tailored targeting could be beneficial as a standalone therapy or in combination with current cancer immunotherapy.

Mechanisms of glycosylase induced genomic instability. [PDF]
Human alkyladenine DNA glycosylase (AAG) initiates base excision repair (BER) to guard against mutations by excising alkylated and deaminated purines. Counterintuitively, increased expression of AAG has been implicated in increased rates of spontaneous ...

Xeroderma Pigmentosum Complementation Group C (XPC): Emerging Roles in Non-Dermatologic Malignancies
Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) is a DNA damage recognition protein essential for initiation of global-genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER).
