Managing DNA polymerases: coordinating DNA replication, DNA repair, and DNA recombination.
Two important and timely questions with respect to DNA replication, DNA recombination, and DNA repair are: (i) what controls which DNA polymerase gains access to a particular primer-terminus, and (ii) what determines whether a DNA polymerase hands off its DNA substrate to either a different DNA polymerase or to a different protein(s) for the completion of the specific biological process? These ...
متن کاملDNA in 3R: Repair, Replication, and Recombination
This special issue entitled “DNA in 3R: Repair, Replication, and Recombination” is dedicated to biological processes that preserve the integrity of our genome. These phenomena have attracted broad interest among a large community of scientists that cross disciplines from mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology to clinical scientists. DNA is continuously exposed to a range of damaging agent...
متن کاملDNA Replication and Recombination
This book represents the proceedings of a Satellite Symposium to the 30th Congress of the International Union of Physiological Sciences, held in Canada during July of 1986. It is the twenty-fourth volume of the neurology and neurobiology collection. The contents of the book are divided into seven sections, beginning with an overview of the field of excitatory amino acid transmission, and a disc...
متن کاملHijacked DNA repair proteins and unchained DNA polymerases.
Somatic hypermutation of immunoglobulin (Ig) genes occurs at a frequency that is a million times greater than the mutation in other genes. Mutations occur in variable genes to increase antibody affinity, and in switch regions before constant genes to cause switching from IgM to IgG. Hypermutation is initiated in activated B cells when the activation-induced deaminase protein deaminates cytosine...
متن کاملOGG1 DNA Repair Gene Polymorphism As a Biomarker of Oxidative and Genotoxic DNA Damage
Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms in 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase-1 (OGG1) gene modulates DNA repair capacity and functions as one of the first lines of protective mechanisms against 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) mutagenicity. OGG1-Cys326 gene polymorphism may decrease DNA repair function, causing oxidative stress due to higher oxidative DNA damage. The main purpose of this stu...
