Xeroderma pigmentosum D-HeLa hybrids with low and high ultraviolet sensitivity associated with normal and diminished DNA repair ability, respectively.
Fusion between HeLa and fibroblasts from complementation group D xeroderma pigmentosum (XPD) followed by challenge with small doses of ultraviolet light (u.v.) results in the production of hybrid cells expressing either HeLa (HD1) or XPD-like (HD2) sensitivity to u.v. and related repair capacity. Assays used included unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS), DNA break accumulation in the presence of inh...
متن کاملHuman damage-specific DNA-binding protein p48. Characterization of XPE mutations and regulation following UV irradiation.
Damage-specific DNA binding (DDB) activity purifies from HeLa cells as a heterodimer (p127 and p48) and is absent from cells of a subset (Ddb(-)) of xeroderma pigmentosum Group E (XPE) patients. Each subunit was overexpressed in insect cells and purified. Both must be present for the damaged DNA band shift characteristic of the HeLa heterodimer. However, overexpressed p48 peptides containing th...
متن کاملAn in vivo analysis of MMC-induced DNA damage and its repair.
Mitomycin C (MMC) induces various types of DNA damages that cause significant cytotoxicity to cells. Accordingly, repair of MMC-induced damages involves multiple repair pathways such as nucleotide excision repair, homologous recombination repair and translesion bypass repair pathways. Nonetheless, repair of the MMC-induced DNA damages in mammals have not been fully delineated. In this study, we...
متن کاملMammalian DNA nucleotide excision repair reconstituted with purified protein components
Nucleotide excision repair is the principal way by which human cells remove UV damage from DNA. Human cell extracts were fractionated to locate active components, including xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) and ERCC factors. The incision reaction was then reconstituted with the purified proteins RPA, XPA, TFIIH (containing XPB and XPD), XPC, UV-DDB, XPG, partially purified ERCC1/XPF complex, and a fac...
متن کاملDDB2 suppresses epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition in colon cancer.
Colon cancer is one of the deadliest cancers worldwide because of its metastasis to other essential organs. Metastasis of colon cancer involves a complex set of events, including epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) that increases invasiveness of the tumor cells. Here, we show that the xeroderma pigmentosum group E (XPE) gene product, damaged DNA-binding protein (DDB)-2, is downregulated ...
