Cisplatin depletes TREX2 and causes Robertsonian translocations as seen in TREX2 knockout cells.
Cisplatin, an anticancer drug, forms DNA interstrand cross-links (ICL) that interfere with replication, whereas TREX2 is a 3'-->5' exonuclease that removes 3' mismatched nucleotides and promotes cellular proliferation. Here, we show that TREX2 is depleted in human cells derived from cancer after exposure to cisplatin but not other genotoxins including another cross-linking agent, mitomycin C (M...
متن کاملIncreased Susceptibility to Skin Carcinogenesis in TREX2 Knockout Mice.
TREX2 is a proofreading 3'-5' exonuclease that can be involved in genome maintenance; however, its biological role remains undefined. To better understand the function and physiologic relevance of TREX2, we generated mice deficient in TREX2 by targeted disruption of its unique coding exon. The knockout mice are viable and do not show relevant differences in growth, survival, lymphocyte developm...
متن کاملBiochemical and cellular characteristics of the 3′ → 5′ exonuclease TREX2
TREX2 is an autonomous nonprocessive 3' --> 5' exonuclease, suggesting that it maintains genome integrity. To investigate TREX2's biochemical and cellular properties, we show that endogenous TREX2 is expressed widely in mouse tissues and human cell lines. Unexpectedly, endogenous human TREX2 is predominantly expressed as a 30-kDa protein (not 26 kDa, as previously believed), which is likely enc...
متن کاملRobertsonian Translocations: An Overview of 872 Robertsonian Translocations Identified in a Diagnostic Laboratory in China
Robertsonian translocations (ROBs) have an estimated incidence rate of 1/1000 births, making this type of rearrangement the most common structural chromosomal abnormalities seen in the general population. In this study, we reports 872 cases of ROBs from 205,001 specimens karyotyped postnatally in a single accredited laboratory in China, including 583 balanced ROBs, 264 unbalanced ROBs, 9 mosaic...
متن کاملTrex2 enables spontaneous sister chromatid exchanges without facilitating DNA double-strand break repair.
Trex2 is a 3' → 5' exonuclease that removes 3'-mismatched sequences in a biochemical assay; however, its biological function remains unclear. To address biology we previously generated trex2(null) mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells and expressed in these cells wild-type human TREX2 cDNA (Trex2(hTX2)) or cDNA with a single-amino-acid change in the catalytic domain (Trex2(H188A)) or in the DNA-bindi...
