Incorporation of large heterologies into heteroduplex DNA during double-strand-break repair in mouse cells.
In this study, the formation and repair of large (>1 kb) insertion/deletion (I/D) heterologies during double-strand-break repair (DSBR) was investigated using a gene-targeting assay that permits efficient recovery of sequence insertion events at the haploid chromosomal immunoglobulin (Ig) mu-locus in mouse hybridoma cells. The results revealed that (i) large I/D heterologies were generated on o...
متن کاملFoxp3+ T-regulatory cells require DNA methyltransferase 1 expression to prevent development of lethal autoimmunity.
Protocols to use Foxp3+ T-regulatory (Treg) cells for cellular therapy, especially postallogeneic stem cell transplantation, are currently being developed and tested by various groups. Inhibitors of DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) enzymes have been advocated as a means to promote and stabilize Foxp3 expression in Tregs undergoing expansion in vitro before their injection in vivo. We investigated t...
متن کاملStationary-Phase Persisters to Ofloxacin Sustain DNA Damage and Require Repair Systems Only during Recovery
UNLABELLED Chronic infections are a serious health care problem, and bacterial persisters have been implicated in infection reoccurrence. Progress toward finding antipersister therapies has been slow, in part because of knowledge gaps regarding the physiology of these rare phenotypic variants. Evidence shows that growth status is important for survival, as nongrowing cultures can have 100-fold ...
متن کاملIncorporation of lododeoxyuridine-12 51 into the DNA of LI210 Leukemia Cells during Tumor Development1
bearing L1210 or L1210/MTX leukemia to study DNA synthesis in vivo. In mice bearing a large population of leukemia cells, most of the retained radioactivity could be recovered from the DNA of these cells. Total body retention and the anatomical distribution of radioactivity in leukemic mice were highly dependent upon the route of iododeoxyuridine administration. Intraperitoneal injections into ...
متن کاملArchaeal dUTPase enhances PCR amplifications with archaeal DNA polymerases by preventing dUTP incorporation.
We discovered a thermostable enzyme from the archaeon Pyrococcus furiosus (Pfu), which increases yields of PCR product amplified with Pfu DNA polymerase. A high molecular mass (>250 kDa) complex with PCR-enhancing activity was purified from Pfu extracts. The complex is a multimer of two discrete proteins, P45 and P50, with significant similarity to bacterial dCTP deaminase/dUTPase and DNA flavo...
