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

Nucleotide excision repair in humans [PDF]
The demonstration of DNA damage excision and repair replication by Setlow, Howard-Flanders, Hanawalt and their colleagues in the early 1960s, constituted the discovery of the ubiquitous pathway of nucleotide excision repair (NER). The serial steps in NER are similar in organisms from unicellular bacteria to complex mammals and plants, and involve ...

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

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]
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.

Prokaryotic Nucleotide Excision Repair [PDF]
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) has allowed bacteria to flourish in many different niches around the globe that inflict harsh environmental damage to their genetic material. NER is remarkable because of its diverse substrate repertoire, which differs greatly in chemical composition and structure.

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

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 ...

Base Flipping in Nucleotide Excision Repair [PDF]
UvrB, the ultimate damage-binding protein in bacterial nucleotide excision repair is capable of binding a vast array of structurally unrelated lesions. A beta-hairpin structure in the protein plays an important role in damage-specific binding. In this paper we have monitored DNA conformational alterations in the UvrB-DNA complex, using the fluorescent ...
