The Ability of Cyanobacterial Cells to Restore UV-B Radiation Induced Damage to Photosystem II is Influenced by Photolyase Dependent DNA Repair [PDF]
, 2013 Damage of DNA and Photosystem-II are among the most significant effects of UV-B irradiation in photosynthetic organisms. Both damaged DNA and Photosystem-II can be repaired, which represent important defense mechanisms against detrimental UV-B effects ...

DNA Damage, Mutagenesis, and DNA Repair [PDF]
Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2010 This special issue of the Journal of Nucleic Acids is dedicated to DNA damage and two important biological consequences provoked by such damage: lesion repair and lesion-induced mutagenesis. These phenomena have attracted broad interest among a large community of scientists that cross disciplines from mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology to ...

Tau and DNA Damage in Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Brain Sciences, 2020 Neurodegenerative disorders are a family of incurable conditions. Among them, Alzheimer’s disease and tauopathies are the most common. Pathological features of these two disorders are synaptic loss, neuronal cell death and increased DNA damage. A key pathological protein for the onset and progression of the conditions is the protein tau, a microtubule ...

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

TGF-β signaling links E-cadherin loss to suppression of nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]
, 2016 E-cadherin is a cell adhesion molecule best known for its function in suppressing tumor progression and metastasis. Here we show that E-cadherin promotes nucleotide excision repair through positively regulating the expression of xeroderma pigmentosum ...

DNA Damage and Oxidative DNA Damage in Inflammatory Bowel Disease [PDF]
Journal of Crohn's and Colitis, 2016 Inflammation has long been regarded as a major contributor to cellular oxidative damage and to be involved in the promotion of carcinogenesis.We aimed to investigate the oxidative damage in inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] patients through a case-control and prospective study involving 344 IBD patients and 294 healthy controls. DNA damage and oxidative

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

PALB2 self-interaction controls homologous recombination. [PDF]
, 2012 PALB2 is essential for BRCA2 anchorage to nuclear structures and for homologous recombinational repair of DNA double-strand breaks. Here, we report that the N-terminal coiled-coil motif of PALB2 regulates its self-association and homologous recombination.
