MRE11 facilitates the removal of human topoisomerase II complexes from genomic DNA [PDF]
Topoisomerase II creates a double-strand break intermediate with topoisomerase covalently coupled to the DNA via a 5'-phosphotyrosyl bond. These intermediate complexes can become cytotoxic protein-DNA adducts and DSB repair at these lesions requires ...

Sperm DNA oxidative damage and DNA adducts [PDF]
The objective of this study was to investigate DNA damage and adducts in sperm from coke oven workers who have been exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. A longitudinal study was conducted with repeated measurements during spermatogenesis. Coke-oven workers (n=112) from a coke-oven plant served the PAH-exposed group, while administrators and ...

Cryo-EM structure of TFIIH/Rad4–Rad23–Rad33 in damaged DNA opening in nucleotide excision repair
The conserved eukaryotic nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway protects the genome from a wide variety of environmentally induced DNA lesions. Here, the authors provide insights into how NER is initiated on lesions by determining the cryo-EM structure

PCNA Ubiquitination Is Important, But Not Essential for Translesion DNA Synthesis in Mammalian Cells [PDF]
Translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) is a DNA damage tolerance mechanism in which specialized low-fidelity DNA polymerases bypass replication-blocking lesions, and it is usually associated with mutagenesis.

Unusual DNA binding modes for metal anticancer complexes [PDF]
DNA is believed to be the primary target for many metal-based drugs. For example, platinum-based anticancer drugs can form specific lesions on DNA that induce apoptosis.
