Cutting edge: CTNNBL1 is dispensable for Ig class switch recombination.
Ig class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation require activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). The search for AID-interaction factors has been a major research effort in the field, as the mechanism of preferential targeting of AID to Ig loci remains elusive. CTNNBL1 is one of the few identified AID-interacting factors and has been shown to affect AID-mediated mutation and ge...
متن کاملNibrin functions in Ig class-switch recombination.
Nijmegen breakage syndrome (NBS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by predisposition to hematopoietic malignancy, cell-cycle checkpoint defects, and ionizing radiation sensitivity. NBS is caused by a hypomorphic mutation of the NBS1 gene, encoding nibrin, which forms a protein complex with Mre11 and Rad50, both involved in DNA repair. Nibrin localizes to chromosomal sites of ...
متن کاملCutting edge: the G-U mismatch glycosylase methyl-CpG binding domain 4 is dispensable for somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination.
Affinity maturation of the humoral response is accomplished by somatic hypermutation and class switch recombination (CSR) of Ig genes. Activation-induced cytidine deaminase likely initiates these processes by deamination of cytidines in the V and switch regions of Ig genes. This activity is expected to produce G-U mismatches that can be substrates for MutS homolog 2/MutS homolog 6 heterodimers ...
متن کاملAPE1 is dispensable for S-region cleavage but required for its repair in class switch recombination.
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) is essential for antibody diversification, namely somatic hypermutation (SHM) and class switch recombination (CSR). The deficiency of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (Ape1) in CH12F3-2A B cells reduces CSR to ∼20% of wild-type cells, whereas the effect of APE1 loss on SHM has not been examined. Here we show that, although APE1's endonuclease acti...
متن کاملALKBH1 Is Dispensable for Abasic Site Cleavage during Base Excision Repair and Class Switch Recombination
Potential roles of the abasic site lyase activity associated with AlkB homolog 1 (ALKBH1) were assessed by studies focusing on the two cellular processes that create abasic sites as intermediates: base excision repair and class switch recombination. Alkbh1(-/-) pups (lacking exon 3) were born at a lower than expected frequency from heterozygous parents, suggesting a reduced survival rate and no...
