Translesion synthesis in mammalian cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
DNA damage blocks the progression of the replication fork. In order to circumvent the damaged bases, cells employ specialized low stringency DNA polymerases, which are able to carry out translesion synthesis (TLS) past different types of damage. The five

Basal Cell Carcinoma in Cases with or without Xeroderma Pigmentosum

open access: yesJournal of Nepal Medical Association, 2017
Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of cancer in humans and comprises the vast majority of skin cancers. It predominantly affects fair-skinned individuals, and its incidence is rapidly increasing.

TGF-β signaling links E-cadherin loss to suppression of nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
E-cadherin is a cell adhesion molecule best known for its function in suppressing tumor progression and metastasis. Here we show that E-cadherin promotes nucleotide excision repair through positively regulating the expression of xeroderma pigmentosum ...

Xeroderma pigmentosum with ocular involvement and squamous cell carcinoma: A case report

open access: yesDermatology Reports, 2019
Xeroderma Pigmentosum is a rare, autosomal recessive genetic disorder, characterized by defective DNA repair leading to clinical and cellular hypersensitivity to ultraviolet radiation and carcinogenic agents.

DNA strand break repair and neurodegeneration. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A number of DNA repair disorders are known to cause neurological problems. These disorders can be broadly characterised into early developmental, mid-to-late developmental or progressive.

Structural basis of TFIIH activation for nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the major DNA repair pathway that removes UV-induced and bulky DNA lesions. There is currently no structure of NER intermediates, which form around the large multisubunit transcription factor IIH (TFIIH).

Xeroderma Pigmentosum: a case report with oral implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Xeroderma Pigmentosum is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by defective DNA repair leading to clinical and cellular hypersensitivity to ultraviolet radiation and carcinogenic agents.

Shining a Light on Xeroderma Pigmentosum [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2012
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder of DNA repair characterized by sun sensitivity and UV radiation-induced skin and mucous membrane cancers. Initially described in 1874 by Moriz Kaposi in Vienna, nearly 100 years later, James Cleaver in San Francisco reported defective DNA repair in XP cells. This eventually provided the

The influence of DNA repair on neurological degeneration, cachexia, skin cancer and internal neoplasms: autopsy report of four xeroderma pigmentosum patients (XP-A, XP-C and XP-D) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: To investigate the association of DNA nucleotide excision repair (NER) defects with neurological degeneration, cachexia and cancer, we performed autopsies on 4 adult xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients with different clinical features and ...

Melanoma and Other Skin Cancers in Xeroderma Pigmentosum Patients and Mutation in Their Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Malignant melanomas were found in 15.8% of xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patients with skin cancer in Japan. When multiple cancers were scored separately depending on the histopathologic types, 12.1% of the skin cancers in XP patients was malignant melanoma.
