Revisiting Two Decades of Research Focused on Targeting APE1 for Cancer Therapy: The Pros and Cons
APE1 is an essential endodeoxyribonuclease of the base excision repair pathway that maintains genome stability. It was identified as a pivotal factor favoring tumor progression and chemoresistance through the control of gene expression by a redox-based ...

Anti-neoplastic effect of DNA cross-linking agents such as cisplatin, mitomycin C, and psoralen is attributed to their ability to induce DNA interstrand cross-links (ICLs), which block replication, transcription, and linear repair pathways by preventing ...

The integrity of the genome is essential to the health of the individual and to the reproductive success of a species. Transmission of genetic information is in a selective balance between two opposing forces, the maintenance of genetic stability versus elimination of mutational change and loss of evolutionary potential. Caenorhabditis elegans provides

DNA damage induced during mitosis undergoes DNA repair synthesis. [PDF]
Understanding the mitotic DNA damage response (DDR) is critical to our comprehension of cancer, premature aging and developmental disorders which are marked by DNA repair deficiencies.

Identification of MLH2/hPMS1 dominant mutations that prevent DNA mismatch repair function
Reyes et al. identified and characterized dominant mutations in the MutL homolog MLH2 (in S. cerevisiae) and PMS1 (in humans) causing an increased mutator phenotype.

Stability of DNA largely depends on accuracy of repair mechanisms, which remove structural anomalies induced by exogenous and endogenous agents or introduced by DNA metabolism, such as replication. Most repair mechanisms include nucleolytic processing of DNA, where nucleases cleave a phosphodiester bond between a deoxyribose and a phosphate residue ...

Mechanism of substrate hydrolysis by the human nucleotide pool sanitiser DNPH1
Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors are used in the clinic to treat BRCA-deficient breast, ovarian and prostate cancers. As their efficacy is potentiated by loss of the nucleotide salvage factor DNPH1 there is considerable interest in the ...

DNA polymerases required for repair of UV-induced damage in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
The ability of yeast DNA polymerase mutant strains to carry out repair synthesis after UV irradiation was studied by analysis of postirradiation molecular weight changes in cellular DNA.
