Non-homologous DNA increases gene disruption efficiency by altering DNA repair outcomes

The Cas9 endonuclease can be targeted to genomic sequences by programming the sequence of an associated single guide RNA (sgRNA). For unknown reasons, the activity of these Cas9-sgRNA combinations varies widely at different genomic loci and in different cell types. Thus, disrupting genes in polyploid cell lines or when using poorly performing sgRNAs can require extensive downstream screening to...

Nickel Increases Chromosomal Abnormalities by Interfering with the Initiation of DNA Repair Pathways

Background: Nickel is a carcinogenic, heavy metal released through industrial activities and via natural resources. It is able to cause DNA damages by reducing the efficiency of DNA repair mechanisms. However, the exact time point at which it is able to interfere with these mechanisms is not yet clearly understood. Methods: To find the most nickel-vulnerable time of repair mechanisms, human de...

Disruption of maternal DNA repair increases sperm-derived chromosomal aberrations.

Male and female germ cells can transmit genetic defects that lead to pregnancy loss, infant mortality, birth defects, and genetic diseases in offspring; however, the parental origins of transmitted defects are not random, with de novo mutations and chromosomal structural aberrations transmitted predominantly by sperm. We tested the hypotheses that paternal mutagenic exposure during late spermat...

OGG1 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...

Non-homologous end joining as a mechanism of DNA repair

In spite of its essential role as the carrier of genetic information, DNA is not an inert structure. The genome is susceptible to potentially mutagenic threats of both endogenous and environmental origin. A dramatic threat to the covalent structure of DNA is posed by breaks in the phosphate backbone affecting one or both strands of the Watson–Crick double helix. Ionizing radiation and certain c...
