We analysed the associations between genetic polymorphisms in genes coding for DNA repair enzymes XPD (exon 23 A --> C, K751Q), XPG (exon 15 G --> C, D1104H), XPC (exon 15 A --> C, K939Q), XRCC1 (exon 10 G --> A, R399Q) and XRCC3 (exon 7 C --> T, T241 M) and the levels of chromosomal aberrations (CAs) and single-strand breaks (SSBs) in peripheral lymphocytes in a central European population. We...
TO THE EDITOR Individuals with xeroderma pigmentosum syndrome (XP) present an extremely high sensitivity to sunlight, with increased incidence of skin cancer (especially in sun-exposed areas), when compared to the normal population. Some XP patients can also display developmental complications and early aging features. A genetic defect in the nucleotide excision repair pathway (NER) was describ...
Human flap endonuclease-1 (hFEN-1) is highly homologous to human XPG, Saccharomyces cerevisiae RAD2 and S.cerevisiae RTH1 and shares structural and functional similarity with viral exonucleases such as T4 RNase H, T5 exonuclease and prokaryotic DNA polymerase 5'nucleases. Sequence alignment of 18 structure-specific nucleases revealed two conserved nuclease domains with seven conserved carboxyl ...
Ultraviolet radiation B (UVB) is the main cause of DNA damage in epidermal cells; and if not repaired, this DNA damage leads to skin cancer. In earlier studies, we have reported that natural flavonolignan silibinin exerts strong chemopreventive efficacy against UVB-induced skin damage and carcinogenesis; however mechanistic studies are still being actively pursued. Here, we investigated the rol...
Polymorphisms in six genes involved in nucleotide excision repair of DNA were examined in a large population-based case-control study of melanoma. Genotyping was conducted for 2485 patients with a single primary melanoma (controls) and 1238 patients with second or higher order primary melanomas (cases). Patients were ascertained from nine geographic regions in Australia, Canada, Italy and the U...
Effects of DNA damaging agents on cultured fibroblasts derived from patients with Cockayne syndrome.
The cytotoxic action of physical and chemical agents on 10 skin fibroblast strains in culture derived from individuals with Cockayne's syndrome was measured in terms of colony-forming ability. As compared to fibroblasts from normal donors, all Cockayne cell strains tested exhibited a significantly increased sensitivity to UV light and a normal sensitivity to X-rays. Cells from two sets of paren...
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is critical for the repair of DNA lesions induced by UV radiation, but its contribution in replicating cells is less clear. Here, we show that dual incision by NER endonucleases, including XPF and XPG, promotes the S-phase accumulation of the BRCA1 and Fanconi anemia-associated DNA helicase FANCJ to sites of UV-induced damage. FANCJ promotes replication protein ...
Functional genetic variants of DNA repair genes may alter the host DNA repair capacity, and thus influence efficiency of therapies. We genotyped eight potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes (i.e. ERCC1, XPA, XPC, XPD and XPG) involved in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway in 496 Japanese gastric cancer patients, and assessed overall survival and recurre...
PURPOSE Interindividual differences in DNA repair capacity not only modify individual susceptibility to carcinogenesis, but also affect individual response to cancer treatment. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is one of the major DNA repair pathways in mammalian cells involved in the removal of a wide variety of DNA lesions. Polymorphisms in NER genes may influence DNA repair capacity and affec...
In this note we show how the formalism of eXtended Positional Grammars (XPGs) allow us to model a wide class of statecharts. Statecharts are a very rich graphical specification formalism. They are an extension of conventional finite state machines with more powerful concepts such as hierarchy of states, orthogonality, interlevel transitions, etc. It is widely recognized that the main difficulti...
