DNA ligases as therapeutic targets. [PDF]

open access: yesTransl Cancer Res, 2013
During DNA replication, DNA joining events link Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand. In addition, they are required to repair DNA single- and double-strand breaks and to complete repair events initiated by the excision of mismatched and damaged bases. In human cells, there are three genes encoding DNA ligases.

SUMO chain formation is required for response to replication arrest in S. pombe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
SUMO is a ubiquitin-like protein that is post-translationally attached to one or more lysine residues on target proteins. Despite having only 18% sequence identity with ubiquitin, SUMO contains the conserved betabetaalphabetabetaalphabeta fold present in

Identification of Novel Inhibitors of Escherichia coli DNA Ligase (LigA)

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Present in all organisms, DNA ligases catalyse the formation of a phosphodiester bond between a 3′ hydroxyl and a 5′ phosphate, a reaction that is essential for maintaining genome integrity during replication and repair.

Bacterial DNA ligases [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2001
DNA ligases join breaks in the phosphodiester backbone of DNA molecules and are used in many essential reactions within the cell. All DNA ligases follow the same reaction mechanism, but they may use either ATP or NAD+ as a cofactor. All Bacteria (eubacteria) contain NAD+‐dependent DNA ligases, and the uniqueness of these enzymes to Bacteria makes them ...

Plant SUMO E3 Ligases: Function, Structural Organization, and Connection With DNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Protein modification by the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) plays an important role in multiple plant processes, including growth, development, and the response to abiotic stresses.

Detection of ligation products of DNA linkers with 5'-OH ends by denaturing PAGE silver stain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
To explore if DNA linkers with 5'-hydroxyl (OH) ends could be joined by commercial T4 and E. coli DNA ligase, these linkers were synthesized by using the solid-phase phosphoramidite method and joined by using commercial T4 and E. coli DNA ligases.

DNA Ligase I, the Replicative DNA Ligase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Multiple DNA ligation events are required to join the Okazaki fragments generated during lagging strand DNA synthesis. In eukaryotes, this is primarily carried out by members of the DNA ligase I family. The C-terminal catalytic region of these enzymes is composed of three domains: a DNA binding domain, an adenylation domain and an OB-fold domain.

Ubiquitylation in immune disorders and cancer: from molecular mechanisms to therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Conjugation of ubiquitin to proteins (ubiquitylation) has emerged to be one of the most crucial post-translational modifications controlling virtually all cellular processes.

RNF126, 168 and CUL1: The Potential Utilization of Multi-Functional E3 Ubiquitin Ligases in Genome Maintenance for Cancer Therapy

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Ubiquitination is a post-translational modification (PTM) that is involved in proteolysis, protein–protein interaction, and signal transduction. Accumulation of mutations and genomic instability are characteristic of cancer cells, and dysfunction of the ...
