The clustered DNA lesions (CDLs) are a characteristic feature of ionizing radiation’s impact on the human genetic material. CDLs impair the efficiency of cellular repair machinery, especially base excision repair (BER).

ULK1 in autophagy: sugar it up
Autophagy is a highly conserved cellular degradation and recycling process in mammalian cells, which is comprised of three main types: microautophagy, macroautophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy (CMA).

Molecular rectifiers with very high rectification ratio enabled by oxidative damage in double-stranded DNA [PDF]
In this work, we report a novel strategy to construct molecular diodes with a record tunable rectification ratio of as high as 10^6 using oxidatively damaged DNA molecules. Being exposed to several endogenous and exogenous events, DNA suffers constant oxidative damages leading to oxidation of guanine to 8-Oxoguanine (8oxoG).

The 5′,8-cyclo-2′-deoxypurines (cdPus) affect the DNA structure. When these bulky structures are a part of clustered DNA lesions (CDL), they affect the repair of the other lesions within the cluster.

DNA damage response signaling pathways and targets for radiotherapy sensitization in cancer
Radiotherapy is one of the most common countermeasures for treating a wide range of tumors. However, the radioresistance of cancer cells is still a major limitation for radiotherapy applications.

DNA damage and autophagy [PDF]
Both exogenous and endogenous agents are a threat to DNA integrity. Exogenous environmental agents such as ultraviolet (UV) and ionizing radiation, genotoxic chemicals and endogenous byproducts of metabolism including reactive oxygen species can cause alterations in DNA structure (DNA damage). Unrepaired DNA damage has been linked to a variety of human

Autoradiography of 32P-radiolabeled oligonucleotides is one of the most precise detection methods of DNA repair processes. In this study, autoradiography allowed assessing the activity of proteins in the cytoplasm involved in DNA repair. The cytoplasm is

Electronic Excitation Response of DNA to High-energy Proton Radiation in Water [PDF]
The lack of molecular-level understanding for the electronic excitation response of DNA to charged particle radiation, such as high-energy protons, remains a fundamental scientific bottleneck in advancing proton and other ion beam cancer therapies.

Cohesin causes replicative DNA damage by trapping DNA topological stress [PDF]
DNA topological stress inhibits DNA replication fork (RF) progression and contributes to DNA replication stress. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we demonstrate that centromeric DNA and the rDNA array are especially vulnerable to DNA topological stress ...
