Nucleotide excision repair: a versatile and smart toolkit [PDF]

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2022
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a major pathway to deal with bulky adducts induced by various environmental toxins in all cellular organisms. The two sub-pathways of NER, global genome repair (GGR) and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), differ in ...

Epigenetic Regulation of Nucleotide Excision Repair [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Genomic DNA is constantly attacked by a plethora of DNA damaging agents both from endogenous and exogenous sources. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the most versatile repair pathway that recognizes and removes a wide range of bulky and/or helix ...

Structural basis of TFIIH activation for nucleotide excision repair [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The NER machinery contains the multisubunit transcription factor IIH (TFIIH) that opens the DNA repair bubble, scans for the lesion, and coordinates excision of the damaged site.

Resistance to Nucleotide Excision Repair of Bulky Guanine Adducts Opposite Abasic Sites in DNA Duplexes and Relationships between Structure and Function. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The nucleotide excision repair of certain bulky DNA lesions is abrogated in some specific non-canonical DNA base sequence contexts, while the removal of the same lesions by the nucleotide excision repair mechanism is efficient in duplexes in which all ...

Global and transcription-coupled repair of 8-oxoG is initiated by nucleotide excision repair proteins

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Nucleotide excision repair proteins are involved in the repair of UV-induced DNA damage. Here, the authors show that NER proteins, DDB2, XPC, and XPA play a vital role in the 8-oxoguanine repair by coordinating with base excision repair protein OGG1.

Nucleotide excision repair genes shaping embryonic development [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2019
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a highly conserved mechanism to remove helix-distorting DNA lesions. A major substrate for NER is DNA damage caused by environmental genotoxins, most notably ultraviolet radiation.

Triple negative breast cancers have a reduced expression of DNA repair genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
DNA repair is a key determinant in the cellular response to therapy and tumor repair status could play an important role in tailoring patient therapy. Our goal was to evaluate the mRNA of 13 genes involved in different DNA repair pathways (base excision,

Ubiquitin and TFIIH-stimulated DDB2 dissociation drives DNA damage handover in nucleotide excision repair

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
DNA damage sensors DDB2 and XPC are fundamental factors to initiate global genome nucleotide excision repair and protect DNA from mutagenesis. Here the authors reveal that ubiquitin and TFIIH-stimulated DDB2 dissociation promotes DNA damage handover to ...

Inter-individual variation in nucleotide excision repair in young adults: effects of age, adiposity, micronutrient supplementation and genotype [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is responsible for repairing bulky helix-distorting DNA lesions and is essential for the maintenance of genomic integrity.
