RecQ helicase family proteins play vital roles in maintaining genome stability, including DNA replication, recombination, and DNA repair. In human cells, there are five RecQ helicases: RECQL1, Bloom syndrome (BLM), Werner syndrome (WRN), RECQL4, and ...

GEN1 promotes common fragile site expression
Summary: Our genomes harbor conserved DNA sequences, known as common fragile sites (CFSs), that are difficult to replicate and correspond to regions of genome instability.

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 ...

DNA repair defects in cancer and therapeutic opportunities
In this review, Hopkins et al. review the major classes of DNA repair and damage signaling defects in cancer, the genomic instability that they give rise to, and therapeutic strategies to exploit the resulting vulnerabilities.

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 ...

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.

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 fi ber fl uorography is widely employed to study the kinetics of DNA replication, but the usefulness of this approach has been limited by the lack of freely-available automated analysis tools.
