Structure of a DNA Glycosylase Bound to a Nicked T:G Mismatch-Containing DNA
Mismatched T:G base pairs can arise during de novo replication as well as base excision repair (BER). In particular, the action of the gap-filling polymerase β (Polβ) can generate a T:G pair as well as a nick in the DNA backbone.

8-Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) is the major cellular enzyme required for the excision of 8-oxoguanine DNA base lesions in DNA through the base excision repair (BER) pathway, and therefore plays a major role in suppressing mutagenesis and in ...

Organocatalytic Switches of DNA Glycosylase OGG1 Catalyze a Highly Efficient AP‐Lyase Function
Organocatalytic switches are small molecules that combine active site affinity and a nitrogen‐centered base for catalysis, effectively removing the rate‐determining step of the OGG1 biochemical cascade. Here, we identify a minimal structure and modulate the active nitrogen pKa, enabling the catalysis of ultrafast AP site incisions in a range of pH ...

MUTYH DNA glycosylase: the rationale for removing undamaged bases from the DNA
Maintenance of genetic stability is crucial for all organisms in order to avoid the onset of deleterious diseases such as cancer. One of the many proveniences of DNA base damage in mammalian cells is oxidative stress, arising from a variety of endogenous

Cell transformation in tumor-development: a result of accumulation of Misrepairs of DNA through many generations of cells [PDF]
Development of a tumor is known to be a result of accumulation of DNA changes in somatic cells. However, the processes of how DNA changes are produced and how they accumulate in somatic cells are not clear. DNA changes include two types: point DNA mutations and chromosome changes.

DNA-Correcting Codes in DNA Storage Systems [PDF]
In [1], the authors proposed a new model of DNA storage system that integrates all three steps of retrieval and introduced the concept of DNA-correcting codes, which guarantees that the output of the storage system can be decoded to the original data. They also gave necessary and sufficient conditions for DNA-correcting codes when the data part is free

Abstract Regulatory genetic toxicology focuses on DNA damage and subsequent gene mutations. However, genotoxic agents can also affect epigenetic marks, and incorporation of epigenetic data into the regulatory framework may thus enhance the accuracy of risk assessment.

ABSTRACT Adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) provide a framework to organize and weigh evidence linking molecular interactions of toxicants in cells to adverse outcomes relevant to risk assessment or regulatory decision‐making. Applying this framework facilitates the interpretation of data produced using new test methods. We used an existing AOP (AOP #296)

Cross‐species extrapolation of adverse outcome pathway network on reproductive toxicity under the One Health perspective using new approach methodologies. AOP = adverse outcome pathway. Abstract Although ecotoxicological and toxicological risk assessments are performed separately from each other, recent efforts have been made in both disciplines to ...
