Ribonucleolytic resection is required for repair of strand displaced nonhomologous end-joining intermediates [PDF]
Nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) pathways repair DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) in eukaryotes and many prokaryotes, although it is not reported to operate in the third domain of life, archaea. Here, we describe a complete NHEJ complex, consisting of DNA

The ubiquitin E3/E4 ligase, UBE4A, fine-tunes protein ubiquitylation and accumulation at sites of DNA damage facilitating double-strand break repair [PDF]
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical DNA lesions that robustly activate the elaborate DNA damage response (DDR) network. We identified a critical player in DDR fine-tuning - the E3/E4 ubiquitin ligase, UBE4A.

Cleavage of 3′-terminal adenosine by archaeal ATP-dependent RNA ligase [PDF]
Methanothermobacter thermoautotrophicus RNA ligase (MthRnl) catalyzes formation of phosphodiester bonds between the 5′-phosphate and 3′-hydroxyl termini of single-stranded RNAs.

Evaluation of NAD(+)-dependent DNA ligase of mycobacteria as a potential target for antibiotics [PDF]
Mycobacteria contain genes for several DNA ligases, including ligA, which encodes a NAD+-dependent enzyme that has been postulated to be a target for novel antibacterial compounds.

PARP (Poly ADP-ribose Polymerase) Family in Health and Disease. [PDF]
PARP family orchestrates ADP‐ribosylation to regulate genomic stability (DNA repair, telomeres) and metabolism (NAD⁺, glucose/lipid). Physiological roles sustain health; dysregulation drives pathologies: cancer (DNA repair addiction), neurodegeneration (parthanatos), cardiovascular disorders (hypertrophy/fibrosis), inflammation (dual role), and viral ...

Label-free electrochemical monitoring of DNA ligase activity [PDF]
This study presents a simple, label-free electrochemical technique for the monitoring of DNA ligase activity. DNA ligases are enzymes that catalyze joining of breaks in the backbone of DNA and are of significant scientific interest due to their essential

Processing of Damaged DNA Ends for Double-Strand Break Repair in Mammalian Cells [PDF]
Most DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formed in a natural environment have chemical modifications at or near the ends that preclude direct religation and require removal or other processing so that rejoining can proceed.

Structure and Function of a Mycobacterial NHEJ DNA Repair Polymerase [PDF]
Non homologous end-joining (NHEJ)-mediated repair of DNA double-strand breaks in prokaryotes requires Ku and a specific multidomain DNA ligase (LigD).
