Induction of Stress Granule Assembly is Essential for the Orchestration of DNA Damage Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
DNA damage provokes several responses including DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis that collectively represent the DNA damage response (DDR).

Common Mitochondrial DNA Mutations Generated through DNA-Mediated Charge Transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Mutation sites that arise in human mitochondrial DNA as a result of oxidation by a rhodium photooxidant have been identified. HeLa cells were incubated with [Rh(phi)2bpy]Cl3 (phi is 9,10-phenanthrenequinone diimine), an intercalating photooxidant, to ...

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Specialized interfaces of Smc5/6 control hinge stability and DNA association

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Structural Maintenance of Chromosomes (SMC) complexes maintain genome integrity by regulating the segregation of chromosomes. Here, Altet al. describe the structure of the heterodimeric Smc5/6-hinge from fission yeast and define functional features ...

The AT Interstrand Cross-Link: Structure, Electronic Properties, and Influence on Charge Transfer in dsDNA

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2018
The interaction of chemical and physical agents with genetic material can lead to almost 80 different DNA damage formations. The targeted intentional DNA damage by radiotherapy or chemotherapy is a front-line anticancer therapy. An interstrand cross-link

Clustered DNA Damage: Electronic Properties and Their Influence on Charge Transfer. 7,8-Dihydro-8-Oxo-2′-Deoxyguaosine Versus 5′,8-Cyclo-2′-Deoxyadenosines: A Theoretical Approach

open access: yesCells, 2020
Approximately 3 × 1017 DNA damage events take place per hour in the human body. Within clustered DNA lesions, they pose a serious problem for repair proteins, especially for iron−sulfur glycosylases (MutyH), which can recognize them by the ...

Targeting DNA damage in SCLC [PDF]

open access: yesLung Cancer, 2017
SCLC accounts for 15% of lung cancer worldwide. Characterised by early dissemination and rapid development of chemo-resistant disease, less than 5% of patients survive 5 years. Despite 3 decades of clinical trials there has been no change to the standard platinum and etoposide regimen for first line treatment developed in the 1970's.

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

IKKα and IKKβ Regulation of DNA Damage-Induced Cleavage of Huntingtin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Proteolysis of huntingtin (Htt) plays a key role in the pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD). However, the environmental cues and signaling pathways that regulate Htt proteolysis are poorly understood. One stimulus may be the DNA damage

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.
