ABSTRACT Background The MUTYH gene is involved in DNA repair and is known for MAP (MUTYH‐associated polyposis), an autosomal recessive disorder that predisposes individuals to colorectal cancer (CRC), with a lifetime risk ranging from 40% to 90%. Homozygosity or double heterozygosity (DH) for pathogenic variants (PVs) in MUTYH causes MAP, but several ...

Base excision repair of oxidative DNA damage coupled with removal of a CAG repeat hairpin attenuates trinucleotide repeat expansion [PDF]
Trinucleotide repeat (TNR) expansion is responsible for numerous human neurodegenerative diseases. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Recent studies have shown that DNA base excision repair (BER) can mediate TNR expansion and deletion by ...

Insight into mechanism of oxidative DNA damage in angiomyolipomas from TSC patients
Background The tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is caused by defects in one of two tumor suppressor genes, TSC-1 or TSC-2. TSC-2 gene encodes tuberin, a protein involved in the pathogenesis of kidney tumors, both angiomyolipomas and renal cell carcinomas.

Mitochondrial DNA Damage: Role of Ogg1 and Aconitase
Mitochondria have a vital role in respiration-coupled energy production, amino acid and fatty acid metabolism, Fe2+/Ca2+ homeostasis and the integration of apoptotic signals that regulate cellular life and death (Babcock et al., 1997; Loeb et al., 2005; Taylor & Turnbull, 2005; Kroemer et al., 2007).
