Evolution of transcription factor DNA binding sites.
In bioinformatics, binding of transcription regulatory factors to the cognate binding sites is usually described by sequence-specific binding energy, which is estimated from a training sample of sites. This model implies that all binding sites with binding energy above some threshold are functional and site sequence variations should be considered neutral until they do not reduce this energy be...
متن کاملDDB accumulates at DNA damage sites immediately after UV irradiation and directly stimulates nucleotide excision repair.
Damaged DNA-binding protein, DDB, is a heterodimer of p127 and p48 with a high specificity for binding to several types of DNA damage. Mutations in the p48 gene that cause the loss of DDB activity were found in a subset of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group E (XP-E) patients and have linked to the deficiency in global genomic repair of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) in these cell...
متن کاملUV-induced DNA damage and repair: a review.
Increases in ultraviolet radiation at the Earth's surface due to the depletion of the stratospheric ozone layer have recently fuelled interest in the mechanisms of various effects it might have on organisms. DNA is certainly one of the key targets for UV-induced damage in a variety of organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. UV radiation induces two of the most abundant mutagenic and cytotoxi...
متن کاملSequential assembly of translesion DNA polymerases at UV-induced DNA damage sites
In response to DNA damage such as from UV irradiation, mammalian Y-family translesion synthesis (TLS) polymerases Polη and Rev1 colocalize with proliferating cell nuclear antigen at nuclear foci, presumably representing stalled replication sites. However, it is unclear whether the localization of one polymerase is dependent on another. Furthermore, there is no report on the in vivo characteriza...
متن کاملHereditary Disorders with Defective Repair of UV-Induced DNA Damage
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is an essential system for correcting ultraviolet (UV)-induced DNA damage. Lesions remaining in DNA due to reduced capacity of NER may result in cellular death, premature aging, mutagenesis and carcinogenesis of the skin. So, NER is an important protection against these changes. There are three representative genodermatoses resulting from genetic defects in NER:...
