In vitro chromatin templates to study nucleotide excision repair.Liu, West Lafayette, United States. In Dna Repair (amst), Dec 2015
At least three systems have been used to analyze the effect of nucleosome folding on nucleotide excision repair (NER) in vitro: (a) human cell extracts that have to rely on labeling of repair synthesis to monitor DNA repair, due to very low repair efficacy; (b) Xenopus oocyte nuclear extracts, that have very robust DNA repair efficacy, have been utilized to follow direct removal of DNA damage; (c) six purified human DNA repair factors (RPA, XPA, XPC, TFIIH, XPG, and XPF-ERCC1) that have been used to reconstitute excision repair in vitro.
Cadmium and cancer.Hartwig, Karlsruhe, Germany. In Met Ions Life Sci, 2012
Particularly sensitive targets appear to be proteins with zinc-binding structures, present in DNA repair proteins such as XPA, PARP-1 as well as in the tumor suppressor protein p53.
Pharmacogenetic analyses of a phase III trial in metastatic gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma with fluorouracil and leucovorin plus either oxaliplatin or cisplatin: a study of the arbeitsgemeinschaft internistische onkologie.Stoehlmacher et al., Dresden, Germany. In J Clin Oncol, 2009
Polymorphisms within genes of TS, MTHFR, MTR, OPRT, XPD, ERCC1, XRCC1, XPA, GSTP1, GSTT1, and GSTM1 were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction-based techniques.
Premature aging in mice deficient in DNA repair and transcription.Hoeijmakers et al., Rotterdam, Netherlands. In Science, 2002
TTD mice carrying an additional mutation in XPA, which enhances the DNA repair defect, showed a greatly accelerated aging phenotype, which correlated with an increased cellular sensitivity to oxidative DNA damage.
