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

Long noncoding RNA HCP5 participates in premature ovarian insufficiency by transcriptionally regulating MSH5 and DNA damage repair via YB1

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
The genetic etiology of premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) has been well established to date, however, the role of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in POI is largely unknown.

DNA Damage, Repair, and Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesBioMed Research International, 2002
DNA is the essential carrier of genetic information in all living cells. How is the huge amount of DNA in organisms from bacteria to humans maintained and protected from the ravages of noxious agents in the environment? The chemical stability of the DNA molecule is not unusually great, DNA undergoes several types of spontaneous modifications, and it ...

Histone post-translational modification and the DNA damage response

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2023
DNA is highly vulnerable to spontaneous and environmental timely damage in living cells. DNA damage may cause genetic instability and increase cancer risk if the damages are not repaired timely and efficiently.

ATM Localization and Heterochromatin Repair Depend on Direct Interaction of the 53BP1-BRCT2 Domain with γH2AX

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
53BP1 plays multiple roles in mammalian DNA damage repair, mediating pathway choice and facilitating DNA double-strand break repair in heterochromatin. Although it possesses a C-terminal BRCT2 domain, commonly involved in phospho-peptide binding in other

Oxidative stress-induced DNA damage and repair in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells: protective role of hemoglobin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BACKGROUND:DNA repair is a cellular defence mechanism responding to DNA damage caused in large part by oxidative stress. There is a controversy with regard to the effect of red blood cells on DNA damage and cellular response.

TDP2 promotes repair of topoisomerase I-mediated DNA damage in the absence of TDP1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The abortive activity of topoisomerases can result in clastogenic and/or lethal DNA damage in which the topoisomerase is covalently linked to the 3'- or 5'-terminus of a DNA strand break. This type of DNA damage is implicated in chromosome translocations

The Ability of Cyanobacterial Cells to Restore UV-B Radiation Induced Damage to Photosystem II is Influenced by Photolyase Dependent DNA Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Alterations of DNA damage repair in cancer: from mechanisms to applications

open access: yesAnnals of Translational Medicine, 2020
DNA damage repair (DDR) pathways are essential to ensure the accurate transmission of genetic material. However, different endogenous and exogenous factors challenge genomic integrity. Mechanisms involved in the alterations of DDR pathways mainly include
