A role for chromatin remodellers in replication of damaged DNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In eukaryotic cells, replication past damaged sites in DNA is regulated by the ubiquitination of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). Little is known about how this process is affected by chromatin structure.

Chemical Incorporation of Chain-Terminating Nucleoside Analogs as 3′-Blocking DNA Damage and Their Removal by Human ERCC1-XPF Endonuclease

open access: yesMolecules, 2016
Nucleoside/nucleotide analogs that lack the 3′-hydroxy group are widely utilized for HIV therapy. These chain-terminating nucleoside analogs (CTNAs) block DNA synthesis after their incorporation into growing DNA, leading to the antiviral effects. However,

Nucleotide Excision Repair in Mammalian Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
is found throughout thenatural world in organisms ranging from mycoplasma to mam-mals. In humans, NER is a major defense against the carcino-genic effects of ultraviolet light from the sun. This repair path-way acts with varying efficiencies on a wide variety of DNAalterations and is especially important for bulky, helix-distort-ing lesions.

ERCC1 Expression as a Predictor of Survival After Operation in Stage I Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Patients

open access: yesChinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2010
Background and objective Proteins of the nucleotide excision repair pathway can repair DNA damage. The excision repair cross-complementing (ERCC) gene family reduce damagement of DNA by nucleotide excision and repair.

DNA Damage Induced by Alkylating Agents and Repair Pathways

open access: yesJournal of Nucleic Acids, 2010
The cytotoxic effects of alkylating agents are strongly attenuated by cellular DNA repair processes, necessitating a clear understanding of the repair mechanisms. Simple methylating agents form adducts at N- and O-atoms.

A theory for the tissue specificity of BRCA1/2 related and other hereditary cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Women who inherit a defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene have risks for breast and ovarian cancer that are so high and seem so selective that many mutation carriers choose to have prophylactic surgery. There has been much conjecture to explain such apparently

Nucleotide excision repair syndromes

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 1995
The phenotypic consequences of a nucleotide excision repair (NER) defect in man are apparent from three distinct inborn diseases characterized by hypersensitivity of the skin to ultraviolet light and a remarkable clinical and genetic heterogeneity. These are the prototype repair syndrome, xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) (seven genetic complementation groups,
