متن کاملCOMMENTARY DNA repair and transcriptional activity in genes
Recent findings on the genomic heterogeneity of mammalian DNA repair have disclosed new features about molecular aspects of the repair processes and have also raised new interesting questions to help direct our research. The studies on preferential DNA repair in active genes demonstrate that there are variations in the repair processes corresponding to different parts of the genome and we are n...
متن کاملDNA-Repair Capacity in Down\'s Syndrome
Down's syndrome (DS) is the most common chromosomal abnormality in human. Subjects with DS are known to be peridisposed to develop leukemia. The molecular basis of the association between DS and leukemia is unknown. The unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) test measure the ability of DNA-repair in mammalian cells after excision of a stretch of DNA containing the region of damage induced by chemical ...
متن کاملDNA repair: Disorders Lehmann, Alan R and O‟Driscoll, Mark
Deoxyribonucleic acid inside cells is being damaged continually. Cells have evolved a series of complex mechanisms to repair all types of damage. Deficiencies in these repair pathways can result in several different genetic disorders. In many cases these are associated with a greatly elevated incidence of specific cancers. Other disorders do not show increased cancer susceptibility, but instead...
متن کاملHereditary Disorders with Defective Repair of UV-Induced DNA Damage
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is an essential system for correcting ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage. Lesions remaining in DNA due to reduced capacity of NER may result in cellular death, premature aging, mutagenesis and carcinogenesis of the skin. So, NER is an important protection against these changes. There are three representative genodermatoses resulting from genetic defects in NER:...
