Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.

Protein–Protein Interactions in Base Excision Repair

open access: yesBiomolecules
The Base Excision Repair (BER) pathway involves a highly coordinated series of protein–protein interactions that facilitate the recognition, excision, and repair of damaged bases. Key enzymes such as DNA glycosylases, apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1

Weakening the nuclear envelope: Lamin B receptor in melanoma metastasis

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
LBR‐driven nuclear fragility supports melanoma invasion. A: Melanocyte presents low LBR (Lamin B Receptor) levels, maintaining nuclear integrity and lamina‐chromatin tethering. B: During malignant progression, upregulation of LBR clusters at the INM (Inner Nuclear Membrane) during confined migration causes local lamina weakening and cholesterol ...

Transcription influences repair-induced DNA methylation

open access: yes, 2008
This work is aimed at the dissection of the molecular mechanism(s) linking DNA damage and gene silencing. To this end, we have developed a genetic system that allows a rapid assessment of homologous-directed repair (HR) of an unique DNA double strand ...

Nitric oxide induced S-nitrosation causes base excision repair imbalance

open access: yes, 2018
It is well established that inflammation leads to the creation of potent DNA damaging chemicals, including reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Nitric oxide can react with glutathione to create S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), which can in turn lead to S ...

Histone modifications influence the action of Snf2 family remodelling enzymes by different mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Alteration of chromatin structure by chromatin modifying and remodelling activities is a key stage in the regulation of many nuclear processes. These activities are frequently interlinked, and many chromatin remodelling enzymes contain motifs that ...

Interactome analysis and docking site prediction of DNA X-ray repair cross-complementing protein (XRCC) in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]

open access: yesNetwork Biology, 2020
There are seven homologs in eukaryotic RAD51 gene family which are conserved among animals and plants, and those are RAD51, DMC1, RAD51c, XRCC3, RAD51b, RAD51d and XRCC2.

Loss of proton‐sensing TDAG8 increases tumor progression in mouse models of colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Loss of the pH‐sensing receptor TDAG8 accelerates colorectal cancer progression in mice. Animals lacking TDAG8 expression had increased tumor growth, DNA damage, and recruitment of tumor‐associated immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, and monocytes.

Enzymes DNA Repair in Skin Photoprotection: Strategies Counteracting Skin Cancer Development and Photoaging Strategies

open access: yesCosmetics
Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is a major contributor to skin aging and carcinogenesis, primarily through the induction of DNA damage. While conventional sunscreens provide passive protection by blocking UVR, active photoprotection using DNA repair enzymes ...

An Overview of DNA Repair in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2011
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neuron disease (MND), is an adult onset neurodegenerative disorder characterised by the degeneration of cortical and spinal cord motor neurons, resulting in progressive muscular weakness and death.
