New Discoveries on Protein Recruitment and Regulation during the Early Stages of the DNA Damage Response Pathways
Published 2024-01-01“…The five major pathways involved in repairing eukaryotic DNA include base excision repair (BER), nucleotide excision repair (NER), mismatch repair (MMR), non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), and homologous recombination (HR). When these pathways do not properly repair damaged DNA, genomic stability is compromised and can contribute to diseases such as cancer. …”

Polymorphisms of the DNA repair genes XRCC1 and XRCC3 in a Brazilian population
Published 2005-09-01“…We genotyped 300 healthy Southeastern Brazilian individuals (262 of European ancestry and 38 of African ancestry) for polymorphisms of codons 194 and 399 of the XRCC1 base excision repair pathway gene and of codon 241 of the XRCC3 homologous recombination repair pathway gene. The allele frequencies were 0.07 for the Arg194Trp and 0.33 for the Arg399Gln codons of the XRCC1 gene and 0.35 for the Thr241Met codon of the XRCC3 gene. …”

In vitro recombination of non-homologous genes can result in gene fusions that confer a switching phenotype to cells.
Published 2011-01-01“…We have previously demonstrated that the non-homologous recombination of the genes encoding maltose binding protein (MBP) and TEM1 β-lactamase (BLA) can result in fusion proteins in which β-lactamase enzyme activity is allosterically regulated by maltose. …”

The Chromatin Landscape Channels DNA Double-Strand Breaks to Distinct Repair Pathways
Published 2022-06-01“…DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), the most deleterious DNA lesions, are primarily repaired by two pathways, namely homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end joining (NHEJ), the choice of which is largely dependent on cell cycle phase and the local chromatin landscape. …”

Beta HPV Deregulates Double-Strand Break Repair
Published 2022-04-01“…Of the two, beta HPV E6 appears to have the greatest ability to increase UV mutagenesis, by attenuating two major double-strand break (DSB) repair pathways, homologous recombination, and non-homologous end-joining. Here, we review this dysregulation of DSB repair and emerging approaches that can be used to further these efforts.…”

Tumorigenesis in mice with a fusion of the leukaemia oncogene Mll and the bacterial lacZ gene.
Published 2000“…The consequence of MLL truncation and fusion has been analysed by joining exon 8 of Mll with the bacterial lacZ gene using homologous recombination in mouse embryonic stem cells. We show that this fusion is sufficient to cause embryonic stem cell-derived acute leukaemias in chimeric mice, and these tumours occur with long latency compared with those found in MLL-Af9 chimeric mice. …”

Yeast Sen1 helicase protects the genome from transcription-associated instability
Published 2011“…SEN1 genetically interacts with DNA repair genes, suggesting that R loop resolution requires proteins involved in homologous recombination. Based on these findings, we propose that R loop formation is a frequent event during transcription and a key function of Sen1 is to prevent their accumulation and associated genome instability.…”
