Binary system for selective photoaffinity labeling of base excision repair DNA polymerases.
A system of photoaffinity reagents for selective labeling of DNA polymerases in extracts has been examined. To create the photoreactive DNA probe in situ, DNA substrates containing a synthetic abasic site are incubated in mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) cellular extract in the presence of base-substituted arylazido derivatives of dNTPs. This results in synthesis of a photoreactive long patch b...
متن کاملEvolving DNA Repair Polymerases: From Double—Strand Break Repair to Base Excision Repair and VDJ Recombination
Currently five polymerases have been identified in Escherichia coli, at least eight in Saccharo‐ myces cerevisiae, nine in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and fourteen in humans [1-4]. Based on the primary structure of the catalytic subunits, DNA polymerases have been classified into different families. Eukaryotic organisms have four families: A family (Polγ, Polθ and Polν), B family (Polα, Polδ, Po...
متن کاملSelective base excision repair of DNA damage by the non-base-flipping DNA glycosylase AlkC.
DNA glycosylases preserve genome integrity and define the specificity of the base excision repair pathway for discreet, detrimental modifications, and thus, the mechanisms by which glycosylases locate DNA damage are of particular interest. Bacterial AlkC and AlkD are specific for cationic alkylated nucleobases and have a distinctive HEAT-like repeat (HLR) fold. AlkD uses a unique non-base-flipp...
متن کاملPhotoaffinity labeling of mouse fibroblast enzymes by a base excision repair intermediate. Evidence for the role of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 in DNA repair.
To examine the interaction of mammalian base excision repair (BER) enzymes with DNA intermediates formed during BER, we used a novel photoaffinity labeling probe and mouse embryonic fibroblast cellular extracts. The probe was formed in situ, using an end-labeled oligonucleotide containing a synthetic abasic site; this site was incised by apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease creating a nick with 3...
متن کاملImpact of ribonucleotide incorporation by DNA polymerases β and λ on oxidative base excision repair
Oxidative stress is a very frequent source of DNA damage. Many cellular DNA polymerases (Pols) can incorporate ribonucleotides (rNMPs) during DNA synthesis. However, whether oxidative stress-triggered DNA repair synthesis contributes to genomic rNMPs incorporation is so far not fully understood. Human specialized Pols β and λ are the important enzymes involved in the oxidative stress tolerance,...
