Isolation of human and murine hematopoietic stem cells for DNA damage and DNA repair assays

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2021
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

open access: yeseLife, 2021
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 ...

Research progress on the role and mechanism of DNA damage repair in germ cell development

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
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 ...

Suppression of isoprenylcysteine carboxylmethyltransferase compromises DNA damage repair

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2021
Inhibition of isoprenylcysteine carboxylmethyltransferase reduces cancer cells’ ability to repair DNA damage by suppressing the expression of critical DNA damage repair pathway genes, hence increasing their vulnerability to DNA damaging insults such as ...

Cooperation of the ATM and Fanconi Anemia/BRCA Pathways in Double-Strand Break End Resection

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Cells deficient in ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) are hypersensitive to ionizing radiation and other anti-cancer agents that induce double-strand DNA breaks. ATM inhibitors may therefore sensitize cancer cells to these agents.

DNA Damage Repair and Current Therapeutic Approaches in Gastric Cancer: A Comprehensive Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
DNA in cells is frequently damaged by endogenous and exogenous agents. However, comprehensive mechanisms to combat and repair DNA damage have evolved to ensure genomic stability and integrity.

Fatty acid oxidation facilitates DNA double-strand break repair by promoting PARP1 acetylation

open access: yesCell Death and Disease, 2023
DNA repair is a tightly coordinated stress response to DNA damage, which is critical for preserving genome integrity. Accruing evidence suggests that metabolic pathways have been correlated with cellular response to DNA damage.

Phosphorylation-mediated interactions with TOPBP1 couple 53BP1 and 9-1-1 to control the G1 DNA damage checkpoint

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Coordination of the cellular response to DNA damage is organised by multi-domain ‘scaffold’ proteins, including 53BP1 and TOPBP1, which recognise post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation, methylation and ubiquitylation on other proteins ...

BRCT domains of the DNA damage checkpoint proteins TOPBP1/Rad4 display distinct specificities for phosphopeptide ligands

open access: yeseLife, 2018
TOPBP1 and its fission yeast homologue Rad4, are critical players in a range of DNA replication, repair and damage signalling processes. They are composed of multiple BRCT domains, some of which bind phosphorylated motifs in other proteins. They thus act

Targeting DNA damage response as a potential therapeutic strategy for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
Cells experience both endogenous and exogenous DNA damage daily. To maintain genome integrity and suppress tumorigenesis, individuals have evolutionarily acquired a series of repair functions, termed DNA damage response (DDR), to repair DNA damage and ...
