Long-term XPC silencing reduces DNA double-strand break repair.
To study the relationships between different DNA repair pathways, we established a set of clones in which one specific DNA repair gene was silenced using long-term RNA interference in HeLa cell line. We focus here on genes involved in either nucleotide excision repair (XPA and XPC) or nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ; DNA-PKcs and XRCC4). As expected, XPA(KD) (knock down) and XPC(KD) cells were ...
متن کاملSilencing , Heterochromatin , and DNA Double Strand Break Repair in
The repair of damaged DNA is a crucial function carried out by all cells. Unrepaired DNA damage can lead to mutation, loss of genetic information, cellular transformation, or cell death. The DNA double strand break (DSB) is one type of damage that must be efficiently and accurately repaired. Two general mechanisms are employed by eukaryotic cells to repair DSBs: homologous recombination and non...

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 کاملLong-range heterochromatin association is mediated by silencing and double-strand DNA break repair proteins
The eukaryotic genome is highly organized in the nucleus, and this organization affects various nuclear processes. However, the molecular details of higher-order organization of chromatin remain obscure. In the present study, we show that the Saccharomyces cerevisiae silenced loci HML and HMR cluster in three-dimensional space throughout the cell cycle and independently of the telomeres. Long-r...
