DNA Damage, Mutagenesis, and DNA Repair [PDF]
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 ...

PTEN in DNA damage repair [PDF]
The ability of DNA repair in a cell is vital to its genomic integrity and thus to the normal functioning of an organism. Phosphatase and tensin homolog (PTEN) is a well-established tumor suppressor gene that induces apoptosis and controls cell growth by inhibiting the PI3K/AKT pathway.

The aesthetic appeal of the DNA double helix initially hindered notions of DNA mutation and repair, which would necessarily interfere with its pristine state. But it has since been recognized that DNA is subject to continuous damage and the cell has an arsenal of ways of responding to such injury.

Isolation of human and murine hematopoietic stem cells for DNA damage and DNA repair assays
Summary: Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) reside in the bone marrow and supply blood cells. Efficient methods for isolation of HSPCs are required. Here, we present protocols for the isolation of human and murine HSPCs using manual and FACS-

Uncovering an allosteric mode of action for a selective inhibitor of human Bloom syndrome protein
BLM (Bloom syndrome protein) is a RECQ-family helicase involved in the dissolution of complex DNA structures and repair intermediates. Synthetic lethality analysis implicates BLM as a promising target in a range of cancers with defects in the DNA damage ...

DNA Repair by Reversal of DNA Damage [PDF]
Endogenous and exogenous factors constantly challenge cellular DNA, generating cytotoxic and/or mutagenic DNA adducts. As a result, organisms have evolved different mechanisms to defend against the deleterious effects of DNA damage. Among these diverse repair pathways, direct DNA-repair systems provide cells with simple yet efficient solutions to ...

Research progress on the role and mechanism of DNA damage repair in germ cell development
In the complex and dynamic processes of replication, transcription, and translation of DNA molecules, a large number of replication errors or damage can occur which lead to obstacles in the development process of germ cells and result in a decreased ...

DNA damage and repair in atherosclerosis [PDF]
There is increasing evidence that human atherosclerosis is associated with damage to the DNA of both circulating cells, and cells of the vessel wall. Reactive oxygen species are the most likely agents inducing DNA damage in atherosclerosis. DNA damage produces a variety of responses, including cell senescence, apoptosis and DNA repair.
