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 repair and carcinogenesis [PDF]
The paper is dedicated to the natural phenomenon of cancer, with its possible causes, lifetime risks, mechanisms and possible outcomes discussed in fine detail. The molecular events resulting in uncontrolled cell growth and increased capacity to colonise distant topological sites are reviewed with regards to their impact as separate factors as well as ...

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.

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

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

Personalized genome structure via single gamete sequencing
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,

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 ...

This paper provides detailed insight into the mechanisms of repair of different types of DNA damage and the direct molecular players (enzymes repairing the damage or tagging the damaged site for further processing; damage sensor molecules; other signalling and effector molecules).
