DNA MISMATCH REPAIR [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 2005
▪ Abstract  DNA mismatch repair (MMR) is an evolutionarily conserved process that corrects mismatches generated during DNA replication and escape proofreading. MMR proteins also participate in many other DNA transactions, such that inactivation of MMR can have wide-ranging biological consequences, which can be either beneficial or detrimental.

A novel splice variant of the DNA-PKcs gene is associated with clinical and cellular radiosensivity in a patient with xeroderma pigmentosum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Radiotherapy-induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical cytotoxic lesions. Inherited defects in DNA DSB repair pathways lead to hypersensitivity to ionising radiation, immunodeficiency and increased cancer incidence.

Mechanism of substrate hydrolysis by the human nucleotide pool sanitiser DNPH1

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
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 repair systems and the pathogenesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: varying activities at different stages of infection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Mycobacteria, including most of all MTB (Mycobacterium tuberculosis), cause pathogenic infections in humans and, during the infectious process, are exposed to a range of environmental insults, including the host's immune response.

Role of phase partitioning in coordinating DNA damage response: focus on the Apurinic Apyrimidinic Endonuclease 1 interactome

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2020
Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) is a way to concentrate biochemical reactions while excluding noninteracting components. Disordered domains of proteins, as well as interaction with RNA, favor condensation but are not mandatory for modulating this ...

RNase H enables efficient repair of R-loop induced DNA damage. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
R-loops, three-stranded structures that form when transcripts hybridize to chromosomal DNA, are potent agents of genome instability. This instability has been explained by the ability of R-loops to induce DNA damage. Here, we show that persistent R-loops

Cohesin causes replicative DNA damage by trapping DNA topological stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
DNA topological stress inhibits DNA replication fork (RF) progression and contributes to DNA replication stress. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we demonstrate that centromeric DNA and the rDNA array are especially vulnerable to DNA topological stress ...

Personalized genome structure via single gamete sequencing

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Genetic maps have been fundamental to building our understanding of disease genetics and evolutionary processes. The gametes of an individual contain all of the information required to perform a de novo chromosome-scale assembly of an individual’s genome,

Retrospective study of efficacy and adverse events of immune checkpoint inhibitors in 22 xeroderma pigmentosum patients with metastatic or unresectable cancers

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
BackgroundXeroderma pigmentosum (XP), a rare disease with defects in DNA repair genes, has >1,000-fold increased risk of ultraviolet-induced skin cancers.
