DNA 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 کاملDouble 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: from mechanistic understanding to cancer treatment.
Accurate repair of DNA double-strand breaks is essential to life. Indeed, defective DNA double-strand break repair can lead to toxicity and large scale sequence rearrangements that cause cancer and promote premature aging. Here, we highlight the two major repair systems for handling DNA double-strand breaks: homologous recombination and non-homologous end joining. To clarify recombination mecha...
متن کاملERCC1-XPF endonuclease facilitates DNA double-strand break repair.
ERCC1-XPF endonuclease is required for nucleotide excision repair (NER) of helix-distorting DNA lesions. However, mutations in ERCC1 or XPF in humans or mice cause a more severe phenotype than absence of NER, prompting a search for novel repair activities of the nuclease. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, orthologs of ERCC1-XPF (Rad10-Rad1) participate in the repair of double-strand breaks (DSBs). R...
