DNA replication stress, genome instability and aging
Genome instability is a fundamentally important component of aging in all eukaryotes. How age-related genome instability occurs remains unclear. The free radical theory of aging posits oxidative damage to DNA and other cellular constituents as a primary determinant of aging. More recent versions of this theory predict that mitochondria are a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that ca...
متن کاملShelterin components mediate genome reorganization in response to replication stress.
The dynamic nature of genome organization impacts critical nuclear functions including the regulation of gene expression, replication, and DNA damage repair. Despite significant progress, the mechanisms responsible for reorganization of the genome in response to cellular stress, such as aberrant DNA replication, are poorly understood. Here, we show that fission yeast cells carrying a mutation i...
متن کاملDicer Promotes Transcription Termination at Sites of Replication Stress to Maintain Genome Stability
Nuclear RNAi is an important regulator of transcription and epigenetic modification, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Using a genome-wide approach in the fission yeast S. pombe, we have found that Dcr1, but not other components of the canonical RNAi pathway, promotes the release of Pol II from the 3? end of highly transcribed genes, and, surprisingly, from antisense transcription o...
متن کاملOncogene-Induced Replication Stress Drives Genome Instability and Tumorigenesis
Genomic instability plays a key role in driving cancer development. It is already found in precancerous lesions and allows the acquisition of additional cancerous features. A major source of genomic instability in early stages of tumorigenesis is DNA replication stress. Normally, origin licensing and activation, as well as replication fork progression, are tightly regulated to allow faithful du...
