Mitochondria-targeted oligomeric α-synuclein induces TOM40 degradation and mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease and parkinsonism-dementia of Guam

open access: yesCell Death and Disease
Mitochondrial dysfunction is a central aspect of Parkinson’s disease (PD) pathology, yet the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. This study investigates the link between α-Synuclein (α-Syn) pathology and the loss of translocase of the outer ...

Cytidine analogs are synthetic lethal with base excision repair default due to MBD4 deficiency

open access: yesnpj Precision Oncology, 2022
Inactivating mutations of MBD4 have been reported in subsets of various tumors. A deficiency of this DNA glycosylase, recognizing specifically T:G mismatch resulting from the deamination of methyl-cytosine, results in a hypermutated phenotype due to the ...

Rpd3L and Hda1 histone deacetylases facilitate repair of broken forks by promoting sister chromatid cohesion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Genome stability involves accurate replication and DNA repair. Broken replication forks, such as those encountering a nick, lead to double strand breaks (DSBs), which are preferentially repaired by sister-chromatid recombination (SCR).

Homologous recombination and the repair of DNA double-strand breaks

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
Homologous recombination enables the cell to access and copy intact DNA sequence information in trans, particularly to repair DNA damage affecting both strands of the double helix.

DNA Repair Enzymes [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 1982
The invention relates to methods of selection of agents and compositions for the treatment of proliferative diseases such as cancer. More specifically, the present invention relates to the methods of selecting compounds which modulate the activity of DNA repair enzymes HAB1 and HAB2 and their uses in the treatment of disorders, which would benefit from

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

FUS unveiled in mitochondrial DNA repair and targeted ligase-1 expression rescues repair-defects in FUS-linked motor neuron disease

open access: yesNature Communications
This study establishes the physiological role of Fused in Sarcoma (FUS) in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) repair and highlights its implications to the pathogenesis of FUS-associated neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS ...

The Role of NCOA4-Mediated Ferritinophagy in Health and Disease

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2018
Nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4) is a selective cargo receptor that mediates the autophagic degradation of ferritin (“ferritinophagy„), the cytosolic iron storage complex.

DNA single-strand break repair and spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy-1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) are the commonest DNA lesions arising spontaneously in cells, and if not repaired may block transcription or may be converted into potentially lethal/clastogenic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs).

Targeting DNA Repair

open access: yes, 2017
Genomic instability is a characteristic of most human cancers and plays critical roles in both cancer development and progression. There are various forms of genomic instability arising from many different pathways, such as DNA damage from endogenous and exogenous sources, centrosome amplification, telomere damage, and epigenetic modifications.
