Abstract
8-Oxoguanine (GO) is a major purine oxidation product in DNA. Because of its highly mutagenic properties, GO absolutely must be eliminated from DNA. To do this, aerobic and anaerobic organisms from the three kingdoms of life have evolved repair mechanisms to prevent its deleterious effect on genetic integrity. The major way to remove GO is the base excision repair pathway, usually initiated by a GO-DNA glycosylase. First identified in bacteria (Fpg) and eukaryotes (OGG1), GO-DNA glycosylases were more recently identified in archaea (OGG2 and AGOG). AGOG is the less documented enzyme and its mode of damage recognition and removing remains to be clarified at the molecular and atomic levels. This study presents a complete structural characterisation of apo AGOGs from Pyrococcus abyssi (Pab) and Thermococcus gammatolerans (Tga) and the first structure of Pab-AGOG bound to lesion-containing single- or double-stranded DNA. By combining X-ray structure analysis, site directed mutagenesis and biochemistry experiments, we identified key amino acid residues of AGOGs responsible for the specific recognition of the lesion and the base opposite the lesion and for catalysis. Moreover, a unique binding mode of GO, involving double base flipping, never observed for any other DNA glycosylases, is revealed. In addition to unravelling the properties of AGOGs, our study, through comparative biochemical and structural analysis, offers new insights into the evolutionary plasticity of DNA glycosylases across all three kingdoms of life.

Abstract
8-Oxoguanine (8oxoG) in DNA is a major oxidized base that poses a severe threat to genome stability. To counteract the mutagenic effect generated by 8oxoG in DNA, cells have evolved 8oxoG DNA glycosylase (OGG) that can excise this oxidized base from DNA. Currently, OGG enzymes have been divided into three families: OGG1, OGG2 and AGOG (archaeal 8oxoG DNA glycosylase). Due to the limited reports, our understanding on AGOG enzymes remains incomplete. Herein, we present evidence that an AGOG from the hyperthermophilic euryarchaeon Ch5 (Tb-AGOG) excises 8oxoG from DNA at high temperature. The enzyme displays maximum efficiency at 75°C-95°C and at pH 9.0. As expected, Tb-AGOG is a bifunctional glycosylase that harbors glycosylase activity and AP (apurinic/apyrimidinic) lyase activity. Importantly, we reveal for the first time that residue D41 in Tb-AGOG is essential for 8oxoG excision and intermediate formation, but not essential for DNA binding or AP cleavage. Furthermore, residue E79 in Tb-AGOG is essential for 8oxoG excision and intermediate formation, and is partially involved in DNA binding and AP cleavage, which has not been described among the reported AGOG members to date. Overall, our work provides new insights into catalytic mechanism of AGOG enzymes.

Abstract
To identify DNA-oxidation defenses of hyperthermophilic archaea, we deleted genes encoding the putative 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (oxoG)-targeted N-glycosylase of S. acidocaldarius (ogg; Saci_01367), the Y-family DNA polymerase (dbh; Saci_0554), or both, and measured the effects on cellular survival, replication accuracy, and oxoG bypass in vivo Spontaneous G:C to T:A transversions were elevated in all Δogg and Δdbh constructs, and the Δogg Δdbh double mutant lost viability at a faster rate than isogenic WT and ogg strains. The distribution of G:C to T:A transversions within mutation-detector genes suggested that reactivity of G toward oxidation and the effect on translation contribute heavily to the pattern of mutations that are recovered. An impact of the Ogg protein on overall efficiency of bypassing oxoG in transforming DNA was evident only in the absence of Dbh, and Ogg status did not affect the accuracy of bypass. Dbh function, in contrast, dramatically influenced both the efficiency and accuracy of oxoG bypass. Thus, Ogg and Dbh were found to work independently to avoid mutagenesis by oxoG, and inactivating this simple but effective defense system by deleting both genes imposed a severe mutational burden on S. acidocaldarius cells.IMPORTANCE Hyperthermophilic archaea are expected to have effective (and perhaps atypical) mechanisms to limit the genetic consequences of DNA damage, but few gene products have been demonstrated to have genome-preserving functions in vivo This study confirmed by genetic criteria that the S. acidocaldarius Ogg protein avoids the characteristic mutagenesis of G oxidation. This enzyme and the bypass polymerase Dbh have similar impacts on genome stability but work independently, and may comprise most of the DNA-oxidation defense of S. acidocaldarius The critical dependence of accurate oxoG bypass on the accessory DNA polymerase Dbh further argues that some form of polymerase exchange is important for accurate genome replication in Sulfolobus, and perhaps in related hyperthermophilic archaea.

Abstract
8-oxoguanine (GO) is a major lesion found in DNA that arises from guanine oxidation. The hyperthermophilic and radioresistant euryarchaeon Thermococcus gammatolerans encodes an archaeal GO DNA glycosylase (Tg-AGOG). Here, we characterized biochemically Tg-AGOG and probed its GO removal mechanism by mutational studies. Tg-AGOG can remove GO from DNA at high temperature through a β-elimination reaction. The enzyme displays an optimal temperature, ca.85-95 °C, and an optimal pH, ca.7.0-8.5. In addition, Tg-AGOG activity is independent on a divalent metal ion. However, both Co2+ and Cu2+ inhibit its activity. The enzyme activity is also inhibited by NaCl. Furthermore, Tg-AGOG specifically cleaves GO-containing dsDNA in the order: GO:C, GO:T, GO:A, and GO:G. Moreover, the temperature dependence of cleavage rates of the enzyme was determined, and from this, the activation energy for GO removal from DNA was first estimated to be 16.9 ± 0.9 kcal/mol. In comparison with the wild-type Tg-AGOG, the R197A mutant has a reduced cleavage activity for GO-containing DNA, whereas both the P193A and F167A mutants exhibit similar cleavage activities for GO-containing DNA. While the mutations of P193 and F167 to Ala lead to increased binding, the mutation of R197 to Ala had no significant effect on binding. These observations suggest that residue R197 is involved in catalysis, and residues P193 and F167 are flexible for conformational change.

Characterization of a Thermostable 8-Oxoguanine DNA Glycosylase Specific for GO/N Mismatches from the Thermoacidophilic Archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium. ARCHAEA-AN INTERNATIONAL MICROBIOLOGICAL JOURNAL 2016; 2016:8734894.

Abstract
The oxidation of guanine (G) to 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (GO) forms one of the major DNA lesions generated by reactive oxygen species (ROS). The GO can be corrected by GO DNA glycosylases (Ogg), enzymes involved in base excision repair (BER). Unrepaired GO induces mismatched base pairing with adenine (A); as a result, the mismatch causes a point mutation, from G paired with cytosine (C) to thymine (T) paired with adenine (A), during DNA replication. Here, we report the characterization of a putative Ogg from the thermoacidophilic archaeon Thermoplasma volcanium. The 204-amino acid sequence of the putative Ogg (TVG_RS00315) shares significant sequence homology with the DNA glycosylases of Methanocaldococcus jannaschii (MjaOgg) and Sulfolobus solfataricus (SsoOgg). The six histidine-tagged recombinant TVG_RS00315 protein gene was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified. The Ogg protein is thermostable, with optimal activity near a pH of 7.5 and a temperature of 60°C. The enzyme displays DNA glycosylase, and apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activities on GO/N (where N is A, T, G, or C) mismatch; yet it cannot eliminate U from U/G or T from T/G, as mismatch glycosylase (MIG) can. These results indicate that TvoOgg-encoding TVG_RS00315 is a member of the Ogg2 family of T. volcanium.

Abstract
The hyperthermophilic archaeon Thermococcus gammatolerans can resist huge doses of γ-irradiation, up to 5.0 kGy, without loss of viability. The potential to withstand such harsh conditions is probably due to complementary passive and active mechanisms, including repair of damaged chromosomes. In this work, we documented the formation and repair of oxidative DNA lesions in T. gammatolerans. The basal level of the oxidized nucleoside, 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxo-dGuo), was established at 9.2 (± 0.9) 8-oxo-dGuo per 106 nucleosides, a higher level than those usually measured in eukaryotic cells or bacteria. A significant increase in oxidative damage, i.e., up to 24.2 (± 8.0) 8-oxo-dGuo/106 nucleosides, was measured for T. gammatolerans exposed to a 5.0 kGy dose of γ-rays. Surprisingly, the yield of radiation-induced modifications was lower than those previously observed for human cells exposed to doses corresponding to a few grays. One hour after irradiation, 8-oxo-dGuo levels were significantly reduced, indicating an efficient repair. Two putative base excision repair (BER) enzymes, TGAM_1277 and TGAM_1653, were demonstrated both by proteomics and transcriptomics to be present in the cells without exposure to ionizing radiation. Their transcripts were moderately upregulated after gamma irradiation. After heterologous production and purification of these enzymes, biochemical assays based on electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF (matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight) mass spectrometry indicated that both have a β-elimination cleavage activity. TGAM_1653 repairs 8-oxo-dGuo, whereas TGAM_1277 is also able to remove lesions affecting pyrimidines (1-[2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxyhydantoin (5-OH-dHyd) and 1-[2-deoxy-β-d-erythro-pentofuranosyl]-5-hydroxy-5-methylhydantoin (5-OH-5-Me-dHyd)). This work showed that in normal growth conditions or in the presence of a strong oxidative stress, T. gammatolerans has the potential to rapidly reduce the extent of DNA oxidation, with at least these two BER enzymes as bodyguards with distinct substrate ranges.

Abstract
Together with Bacteria and Eukarya, Archaea represents one of the three domain of life. In contrast with the morphological difference existing between Archaea and Eukarya, these two domains are closely related. Phylogenetic analyses confirm this evolutionary relationship showing that most of the proteins involved in DNA transcription and replication are highly conserved. On the contrary, information is scanty about DNA repair pathways and their mechanisms. In the present review the most important proteins involved in base excision repair, namely glycosylases, AP lyases, AP endonucleases, polymerases, sliding clamps, flap endonucleases, and ligases, will be discussed and compared with bacterial and eukaryotic ones. Finally, possible applications and future perspectives derived from studies on Archaea and their repair pathways, will be taken into account.

Abstract
DNA glycosylases safeguard the genome by locating and excising a diverse array of aberrant nucleobases created from oxidation, alkylation, and deamination of DNA. Since the discovery 28years ago that these enzymes employ a base flipping mechanism to trap their substrates, six different protein architectures have been identified to perform the same basic task. Work over the past several years has unraveled details for how the various DNA glycosylases survey DNA, detect damage within the duplex, select for the correct modification, and catalyze base excision. Here, we provide a broad overview of these latest advances in glycosylase mechanisms gleaned from structural enzymology, highlighting features common to all glycosylases as well as key differences that define their particular substrate specificities.

Abstract
Hydrolytic deamination of cytosine to uracil in DNA is increased in organisms adapted to high temperatures. Hitherto, the uracil base excision repair (BER) pathway has only been described in two archaeons, the crenarchaeon Pyrobaculum aerophilum and the euryarchaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus, which are hyperthermophiles and use single-nucleotide replacement. In the former the apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site intermediate is removed by the sequential action of a 5'-acting AP endonuclease and a 5'-deoxyribose phosphate lyase, whereas in the latter the AP site is primarily removed by a 3'-acting AP lyase, followed by a 3'-phosphodiesterase. We describe here uracil BER by a cell extract of the thermoacidophilic euryarchaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum, which prefers a similar short-patch repair mode as A. fulgidus. Importantly, T. acidophilumcell extract also efficiently executes ATP/ADP-stimulated long-patch BER in the presence of deoxynucleoside triphosphates, with a repair track of ∼15 nucleotides. Supplementation of recombinant uracil-DNA glycosylase (rTaUDG; ORF Ta0477) increased the formation of short-patch at the expense of long-patch repair intermediates, and additional supplementation of recombinant DNA ligase (rTalig; Ta1148) greatly enhanced repair product formation. TaUDG seems to recruit AP-incising and -excising functions to prepare for rapid single-nucleotide insertion and ligation, thus excluding slower and energy-costly long-patch BER.

Abstract
Hydrolytic deamination of cytosine to uracil in cellular DNA is a major source of C-to-T transition mutations if uracil is not repaired by the DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway. Since deamination increases rapidly with temperature, hyperthermophiles, in particular, are expected to succumb to such damage. There has been only one report of crenarchaeotic BER showing strong similarities to that in most eukaryotes and bacteria for hyperthermophilic Archaea. Here we report a different type of BER performed by extract prepared from cells of the euryarchaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus. Although immunodepletion showed that the monofunctional family 4 type of uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) is the principal and probably only UDG in this organism, a β-elimination mechanism rather than a hydrolytic mechanism is employed for incision of the abasic site following uracil removal. The resulting 3' remnant is removed by efficient 3'-phosphodiesterase activity followed by single-nucleotide insertion and ligation. The finding that repair product formation is stimulated similarly by ATP and ADP in vitro raises the question of whether ADP is more important in vivo because of its higher heat stability.

Abstract
Among the four DNA bases, guanine is particularly vulnerable to oxidative damage and the most common oxidative product, 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), is the most prevalent lesion observed in DNA molecules. Fortunately, 8-oxoG is recognized and excised by the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg) of the base excision repair pathway. Ogg enzymes are divided into three separate families, namely, Ogg1, Ogg2, and archaeal GO glycosylase (AGOG). To date, structures of members of both Ogg1 and AGOG families are known but no structural information is available for members of Ogg2. Here we describe the first crystal structures of two archaeal Ogg2: Methanocaldococcus janischii Ogg and Sulfolobus solfataricus Ogg. A structural comparison with OGG1 and AGOG suggested that the C-terminal lysine of Ogg2 may play a key role in discriminating between guanine and 8-oxoG. This prediction was substantiated by measuring the glycosylase/lyase activity of a C-terminal deletion mutant of MjaOgg.

Abstract
DNA is subject to a multitude of oxidative damages generated by oxidizing agents from metabolism and exogenous sources and by ionizing radiation. Guanine is particularly vulnerable to oxidation, and the most common oxidative product 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is the most prevalent lesion observed in DNA molecules. 8-OxoG can form a normal Watson-Crick pair with cytosine (8-oxoG:C), but it can also form a stable Hoogsteen pair with adenine (8-oxoG:A), leading to a G:C-->T:A transversion after replication. Fortunately, 8-oxoG is recognized and excised by either of two DNA glycosylases of the base excision repair pathway: formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase and 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg). While Clostridium acetobutylicum Ogg (CacOgg) DNA glycosylase can specifically recognize and remove 8-oxoG, it displays little preference for the base opposite the lesion, which is unusual for a member of the Ogg1 family. This work describes the crystal structures of CacOgg in its apo form and in complex with 8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine. A structural comparison between the apo form and the liganded form of the enzyme reveals a structural reorganization of the C-terminal domain upon binding of 8-oxoG, similar to that reported for human OGG1. A structural comparison of CacOgg with human OGG1, in complex with 8-oxoG containing DNA, provides a structural rationale for the lack of opposite base specificity displayed by CacOgg.

Abstract
During repair of damaged DNA, the oxidized base 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is removed by 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (Ogg) in eukaryotes and most archaea, whereas in most bacteria it is removed by formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg). We report the first characterization of a bacterial Ogg, Clostridium acetobutylicum Ogg (CacOgg). Like human OGG1 and Escherichia coli Fpg (EcoFpg), CacOgg excised 8-oxoguanine. However, unlike hOGG1 and EcoFpg, CacOgg showed little preference for the base opposite the damage during base excision and removed 8-oxoguanine from single-stranded DNA. Thus, our results showed unambiguous qualitative functional differences in vitro between CacOgg and both hOGG1 and EcoFpg. CacOgg differs in sequence from the eukaryotic enzymes at two sequence positions, M132 and F179, which align with amino acids (R154 and Y203) in human OGG1 (hOGG1) found to be involved in opposite base interaction. To address the sequence basis for functional differences with respect to opposite base interactions, we prepared three CacOgg variants, M132R, F179Y, and M132R/F179Y. All three variants showed a substantial increase in specificity for 8-oxoG.C relative to 8-oxoG.A. While we were unable to definitively associate these qualitative functional differences with differences in selective pressure between eukaryotes, Clostridia, and other bacteria, our results are consistent with the idea that evolution of Ogg function is based on kinetic control of repair.

Abstract
PURPOSE It is of interest to perform a systematic comparative analysis of the conserved domains in DNA glycosylases and the evolution of DNA base excision repair systems. Furthermore, it is important to characterize the roles and regulation of base excision repair during the development of organisms. To address these issues, we first identified 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG)-DNA glycosylase (Ogg1) of the ascidian Ciona intestinalis as a good model system. MATERIALS AND METHODS A cDNA clone coding for a peptide with homology to human Ogg1 was identified in the expressed sequence tag (EST) database from the Ciona cDNA resources. We examined whether CiOgg1 has DNA glycosylase/AP (apurinic/apyrimidinic) lyase activities for 8-oxoG-containing oligonucleotide. Furthermore, the expression level of CiOgg1 was compared in various tissues of Ciona intestinalis. RESULTS The CiOgg1gene encoded a protein of 351 amino acids, which shows 37% identity of amino acid sequence with human Ogg1. The Helix-hairpin-Helix motif was highly conserved. The ascidian enzyme had functional 8-oxoG-DNA glycosylase/AP lyase activities, which removed 8-oxoG opposite cytosine from DNA. Expression of the CiOgg1 significantly reduced the frequency of spontaneous G:C to T:A transversions in E. coli mutM mutY. The highest expression level was observed in testis in Ciona intestinalis. CONCLUSIONS The structure and functions of Ogg1 are well conserved in Ciona intestinalis. CiOgg1 is involved in the repair of 8-oxoG in DNA in Ciona intestinalis.

Abstract
Oxidative damage represents a major threat to genomic stability because the major product of DNA oxidation, 8-oxoguanine (GO), frequently mispairs with adenine during replication. We were interested in finding out how hyperthermophilic bacteria under goes the process of excising mispaired adenine from A/GO to deal with genomic oxidative damage. Herein we report the properties of an Escherichia coli MutY (EcMutY) homolog, TthMutY, derived from a hyperthermophile Thermus thermophilus. TthMutY preferentially excises on A/GO and G/GO mispairs and has additional activities on T/GO and A/G mismatches. TthMutY has significant sequence homology to the A/G and T/G mismatch recognition motifs, respectively, of MutY and Mig.MthI. A substitution from Tyr112 to Ser or Ala (Y112S and Y112A) in the putative thymine-binding site of TthMutY showed significant decrease in DNA glycosylase activity. A mutant form of TthMutY, R134K, could form a Schiff base with DNA and fully retained its DNA glycosylase activity against A/GO and A/G mispair. Interestingly, although TthMutY cannot form a trapped complex with substrate in the presence of NaBH(4), it expressed AP lyase activity, suggesting Tyr112 in TthMutY may be the key residue for AP lyase activity. These results suggest that TthMutY may be an example of a novel class of bifunctional A/GO mismatch DNA glycosylase that can also remove thymine from T/GO mispair.

Abstract
Hydrolytic deamination of DNA-cytosines into uracils is a major source of spontaneously induced mutations, and at elevated temperatures the rate of cytosine deamination is increased. Uracil lesions are repaired by the base excision repair pathway, which is initiated by a specific uracil DNA glycosylase enzyme (UDG). The hyperthermophilic archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus contains a recently characterized novel type of UDG (Afung), and in this paper we describe the over-expression of the afung gene and characterization of the encoded protein. Fluorescence and activity measurements following incubation at different temperatures may suggest the following model describing structure-activity relationships: At temperatures from 20 to 50 degrees C Afung exists as a compact protein exhibiting low enzyme activity, whereas at temperatures above 50 degrees C, the Afung conformation opens up, which is associated with the acquisition of high enzyme activity. The enzyme exhibits opposite base-dependent excision of uracil in the following order: U>U:T>U:C>>U:G>>U:A. Afung is product-inhibited by uracil and shows a pronounced inhibition by p-hydroxymercuribenzoate, indicating a cysteine residue essential for enzyme function. The Afung protein was estimated to be present in A. fulgidus at a concentration of approximately 1000 molecules per cell. Kinetic parameters determined for Afung suggest a significantly lower level of enzymatic uracil release in A. fulgidus as compared to the mesophilic Escherichia coli.
