Non-homologous end-joining pathway associated with occurrence of myocardial infarction: gene set analysis of genome-wide association study data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
<p>Purpose: DNA repair deficiencies have been postulated to play a role in the development and progression of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The hypothesis is that DNA damage accumulating with age may induce cell death, which promotes formation of ...

Mfd Protects Against Oxidative Stress in Bacillus Subtilis Independently of its Canonical Function in DNA Repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background: Previous reports showed that mutagenesis in nutrient-limiting conditions is dependent on Mfd in Bacillus subtilis. Mfd initiates one type of transcription-coupled repair (TCR); this type of repair is known to target bulky lesions, like those ...

Nucleotide excision repair in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiological Reviews, 1990
One of the best-studied DNA repair pathways is nucleotide excision repair, a process consisting of DNA damage recognition, incision, excision, repair resynthesis, and DNA ligation. Escherichia coli has served as a model organism for the study of this process. Recently, many of the proteins that mediate E.

Chromatin structure and DNA damage repair

open access: yesEpigenetics & Chromatin, 2008
The integrity of the genome is continuously challenged by both endogenous and exogenous DNA damaging agents. These damaging agents can induce a wide variety of lesions in the DNA, such as double strand breaks, single strand breaks, oxidative lesions and ...

Structure and Function of a Mycobacterial NHEJ DNA Repair Polymerase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD).

DNA Repair Gene Polymorphisms May Be Associated with Prognosis of Upper Urinary Tract Transitional Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2008
Upper urinary tract transitional cell carcinoma (UUT-TCC) is quite an uncommon disease, and its prognosis differs among individuals irrespective of tumor stage. DNA repair gene polymorphisms are reported to result in the modulation of the repair capacity

Nothing in excess - lessons learned from the expression of high-mobility group proteins type A in non-cancer and cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
High-mobility group A (HMGA) proteins are major transcription regulators which are abundantly and ubiquitously expressed in undifferentiated cells but present at a low level in somatic cells of adult organisms.

Interplay of replication timing, DNA repair, and translesion synthesis in UV mutagenesis in yeast

open access: yesNucleus
Replication timing during S-phase impacts mutation rates in yeast and human cancers; however, the exact mechanism involved remains unclear. Here, we analyze the impact of replication timing on UV mutagenesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Phosphorylated HBO1 at UV irradiated sites is essential for nucleotide excision repair

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers requires access to DNA by the nucleotide excision repair machinery. Here the authors show that HBO1 facilitates accumulation of SNF2H and ACF1 to make chromatin more accessible after ultraviolet damage.
