DNA topoisomerases and DNA repair
BioEssays, 1988AbstractDNA topoisomerases are enzymes that can modify, and may regulate, the topological state of DNA through concerted breaking and rejoining of the DNA strands. They have been believed to be directly involved in DNA excision repair, and perhaps to be required for the control of repair as well. The vicissitudes of this hypothesis provide a noteworthy

DNA–protein crosslink repair
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2015DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs) are highly toxic DNA adducts, but whether dedicated DPC-repair mechanisms exist was until recently unknown. This has changed with discoveries made in yeast and Xenopus laevis that revealed a protease-based DNA-repair pathway specific for DPCs.

DNA Repair DNA double-strand breaks must be repaired efficiently to avoid cell death or cancer. The break ends can either be directly ligated by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) or more accurately repaired by homologous recombination that uses information from the sister chromatid. Sibanda et al.

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 1986
AbstractA number of human genetic diseases have come to be described as being defective in DNA repair. The minimum criterion on which this assignment is based is hypersensitivity to the clastogenic or lethal action of specific DNA damaging agents. In one disease, xeroderma pigmentosum, the molecular evidence for a defect in DNA repair is unequivocal ...

Our knowledge about DNA repair mechanisms in mammalian cells is reviewed. Ways of measuring excision repair are summarized, and various modes of excision repair are described in terms of mechanisms that yield patch sizes of 0, 1, and few (short patch), and many (long patch) bases.

Annual Review of Biochemistry, 1996
Eukaryotic cells have multiple mechanisms for repairing damaged DNA. 06-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase directly reverses some simple alkylation adducts. However, most repair strategies excise lesions from DNA. Two major pathways are base excision repair (BER), which eliminates single damaged-base residues, and nucleotide excision repair (NER ...

DNA Glycosylases in DNA Repair
1986The excision of potentially mutagenic and lethal lesions from DNA proceeds by one of two different routes. DNA damage which results in a major distortion of the DNA double-helix is generally recognized by a high-molecular weight nuclease that cuts two phosphodiester bonds in the altered strand, one on each side of the lesion.

DNA replication, repair, and repair tests
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1980The rate of inhibition and recovery of DNA synthesis can be used in a rapid assay system to detect genotoxic potentials of chemicals. Also, the observation that an agent stimulates DNA repair in a test system indicates its ability to cause damage in DNA. Different experimental approaches to the study of repair synthesis are discussed.
