Roles of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 and mitophagy in progeroid syndromes as well as physiological ageing

open access: yesExploration of Medicine, 2023
Progeroid syndromes are characterized by clinical signs of premature ageing, which may contain several diseases such as Werner syndrome, Bloom syndrome, Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome, and Cockayne syndrome.

RNA Analysis Uncovers Pathogenic PARN Variant in Dyskeratosis Congenita

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 346-351, February 2026.
Using WGS and RNA analysis, we identified a branch point‐disrupting variant in the PARN gene and elucidated its pathogenic molecular mechanism in a child with atypical dyskeratosis congenita presentation. ABSTRACT Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is a rare genetic disorder caused by impaired telomere maintenance, leading to diverse clinical manifestations ...

Snf2 family ATPases and DExx box helicases:differences and unifying concepts from high-resolution crystal structures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Proteins with sequence similarity to the yeast Snf2 protein form a large family of ATPases that act to alter the structure of a diverse range of DNA–protein structures including chromatin. Snf2 family enzymes are related in sequence to DExx box helicases,

Promising Results With NAD Supplementation in Rare Diseases With Premature Aging and DNA Damage

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
Increased DNA damage leads to increased parylation, causing mitochondrial dysfunction. This happens when DNA repair is defective, for example in known diseases and DNA repair capacity varies between individuals, some being at higher risk for hyperparylation.

RNA‐Seq of Cultured Peripheral Blood Lymphocytes Improves Identification of Cryptic Splicing Defects in Rare Disease Diagnostics

open access: yesHuman Mutation, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Accurate identification of the genetic determinants of rare diseases is essential for effective recurrence‐risk management and informed reproductive decision‐making. Although whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and whole‐genome sequencing (WGS) have significantly improved diagnostic capabilities, a subset of affected families still receives no definitive ...

ATM and CDK2 control chromatin remodeler CSB to inhibit RIF1 in DSB repair pathway choice

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Cockayne syndrome group B protein (CSB) is a multifunctional chromatin remodeler involved in double-strand break repair. Here the authors investigate the molecular post-translational signals regulating CSB activity.

Cockayne syndrome proteins CSA and CSB maintain mitochondrial homeostasis through NAD+ signaling

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Background Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare premature aging disease, most commonly caused by mutations of the genes encoding the CSA or CSB proteins. CS patients display cachectic dwarfism and severe neurological manifestations and have an average life ...
