DNA repair of clustered lesions in mammalian cells: involvement of non-homologous end-joining
Clustered lesions are defined as >or=two lesions within 20 bps and are generated in DNA by ionizing radiation. In vitro studies and work in bacteria have shown that attempted repair of two closely opposed lesions can result in the formation of double strand breaks (DSBs). Since mammalian cells can repair DSBs by non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ), we hypothesized that NHEJ would repair DSBs form...
متن کاملRepair-Resistant DNA Lesions
The eukaryotic global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) pathway is the major mechanism that removes most bulky and some nonbulky lesions from cellular DNA. There is growing evidence that certain DNA lesions are repaired slowly or are entirely resistant to repair in cells, tissues, and in cell extract model assay systems. It is well established that the eukaryotic DNA lesion-sensing pr...
متن کاملAbortive base-excision repair of radiation-induced clustered DNA lesions in Escherichia coli.
It has been postulated that ionizing radiation produces a unique form of cellular DNA damage called "clustered damages" or "multiply damaged sites". Here, we show that clustered DNA damages are indeed formed in Escherichia coli by ionizing radiation and are converted to lethal double-strand breaks during attempted base-excision repair. In wild-type cells possessing the oxidative DNA glycosylase...
متن کاملClustered DNA Lesions Containing 5-Formyluracil and AP Site: Repair via the BER System
Lesions in the DNA arise under ionizing irradiation conditions or various chemical oxidants as a single damage or as part of a multiply damaged site within 1-2 helical turns (clustered lesion). Here, we explored the repair opportunity of the apurinic/apyrimidinic site (AP site) composed of the clustered lesion with 5-formyluracil (5-foU) by the base excision repair (BER) proteins. We found, tha...
متن کاملOrder effect of repair processes to clustered DNA damage
In a living cell, a multiply damaged site in DNA is thought to be processed by several different pathways simultaneously or sequentially. Under this situation, the cellular response to the lesion cluster might depend on the order of repair processes because the configuration of the lesions will be modified by the reaction of initial repair protein, affecting the DNA-binding or lesion-excision a...
