Double strand break repair.
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most dangerous form of DNA damage and can lead to death, mutation, or malignant transformation. Mammalian cells use three major pathways to repair DSBs: homologous recombination (HR), classical nonhomologous end joining (C-NHEJ), and alternative end joining (A-NHEJ). Cells choose among the pathways by interactions of the pathways with CtIP and 53BP1. HR i...
متن کاملDNA Double-Strand Break Repair
ownloade C regulates a myriad of genes controlling cell proliferation, metabolism, differentiation, and apoptosis. lso controls the expression of DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair genes and therefore may be a ial target for anticancer therapy to sensitize cancer cells to DNA damage or prevent genetic instability. report, we studied whether MYC binds to DSB repair gene promoters and modulates...
متن کاملDNA double-strand break repair
The integrity of genomic DNA is crucial for its function. And yet, DNA in living cells is inherently unstable. It is subject to mechanical stress and to many types of chemical modification that may lead to breaks in one or both strands of the double helix. Within the cell, reactive oxygen species generated by normal respiratory metabolism can cause double-strand breaks, as can stalled DNA repli...
متن کاملMu Insertions Are Repaired by the Double-Strand Break Repair Pathway of Escherichia coli
Mu is both a transposable element and a temperate bacteriophage. During lytic growth, it amplifies its genome by replicative transposition. During infection, it integrates into the Escherichia coli chromosome through a mechanism not requiring extensive DNA replication. In the latter pathway, the transposition intermediate is repaired by transposase-mediated resecting of the 5' flaps attached to...
متن کاملDrosophila ATR in double-strand break repair.
The ability of a cell to sense and respond to DNA damage is essential for genome stability. An important aspect of the response is arrest of the cell cycle, presumably to allow time for repair. Ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) and ATR are essential for such cell-cycle control, but some observations suggest that they also play a direct role in DNA repair. The Drosophila ortholog of ATR, MEI-4...
