DNA damage and repair proteins in cellular response to sulfur mustard in Iranian veterans more than two decades after exposure [PDF]
Delayed effects of sulfur mustard (SM) exposure on the levels of five important damage/repair proteins were investigated in 40 SM-exposed veterans of Iran-Iraq war and 35 unexposed controls.

TGF-β signaling links E-cadherin loss to suppression of nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]
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 ...

PARP3 is a sensor of nicked nucleosomes and monoribosylates histone H2BGlu2
Chromosomal single-strand DNA breaks occur frequently and require repair to avoid disease outcomes. Here, the authors show that in bird cells, PARP3 accelerates this repair, and use structural biology and cell biology techniques to reveal details of the ...

Tyrosine dephosphorylation of H2AX modulates apoptosis and survival decisions. [PDF]
Life and death fate decisions allow cells to avoid massive apoptotic death in response to genotoxic stress. Although the regulatory mechanisms and signalling pathways controlling DNA repair and apoptosis are well characterized, the precise molecular ...

Damage repair DNA polymerases Y [PDF]
The newly found Y-family DNA polymerases are characterized by low fidelity replication using an undamaged template and the ability to carry out translesion DNA synthesis. The crystal structures of three Y-family polymerases, alone or complexed with DNA and nucleotide substrate, reveal a conventional right-hand-like catalytic core consisting of finger ...

Oxidative DNA damage has been shown to accumulate with age in the nuclear and mitochondrial genome and cause cancer. Among DNA lesions produced by reactive oxygen species, base lesions and single-strand breaks are most frequently produced and cause mutation and cell death.

Loss of urokinase receptor sensitizes cells to DNA damage and delays DNA repair. [PDF]
DNA damage induced by numerous exogenous or endogenous factors may have irreversible consequences on the cell leading to cell cycle arrest, senescence and cell death.

DNA Damage, DNA Repair, Aging, and Neurodegeneration [PDF]
Aging in mammals is accompanied by a progressive atrophy of tissues and organs, and stochastic damage accumulation to the macromolecules DNA, RNA, proteins, and lipids. The sequence of the human genome represents our genetic blueprint, and accumulating evidence suggests that loss of genomic maintenance may causally contribute to aging.
