Komiya E, Takamatsu S, Miura D, Tsukakoshi K, Tsugawa W, Sode K, Ikebukuro K, Asano R. Exploration and Application of DNA-Binding Proteins to Make a Versatile DNA-Protein Covalent-Linking Patch (D-Pclip): The Case of a Biosensing Element. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:4087-4097. [PMID: 38295327 PMCID: PMC10870700 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.3c12668] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/11/2023] [Revised: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/02/2024]
Abstract
DNA-protein complexes are attractive components with broad applications in various research fields, such as DNA aptamer-enzyme complexes as biosensing elements. However, noncovalent DNA-protein complexes often decrease detection sensitivity because they are highly susceptible to environmental conditions. In this study, we developed a versatile DNA-protein covalent-linking patch (D-Pclip) for fabricating covalent and stoichiometric DNA-protein complexes. We comprehensively explored the database to determine the DNA-binding ability of the candidates and selected UdgX as the only uracil-DNA glycosylase known to form covalent bonds with DNA via uracil, with a binding efficiency >90%. We integrated a SpyTag/SpyCatcher protein-coupling system into UdgX to create a universal and convenient D-Pclip. The usability of D-Pclip was shown by preparing a stoichiometric model complex of a hemoglobin (Hb)-binding aptamer and glucose oxidase (GOx) by mixing at 4 °C. The prepared aptamer-GOx complexes detected Hb in a dose-dependent manner within the clinically required detection range in buffer and human serum without any washing procedures. D-Pclip covalently connects any uracil-inserted DNA sequence and any SpyCatcher-fused protein stoichiometrically; therefore, it has a high potential for various applications.

Abstract
Enzymes in uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) superfamily are involved in removal of deaminated nucleobases such as uracil, methylcytosine derivatives such as formylcytosine and carboxylcytosine, and other base damage in DNA repair. UDGX is the latest addition of a new class to the UDG superfamily with a sporadic distribution in bacteria. UDGX type enzymes have a distinct biochemical property of cross-linking itself to the resulting AP site after uracil removal. Built on previous biochemical and structural analyses, this work comprehensively investigated the kinetic and enzymatic properties of Mycobacterium smegmatis UDGX. Kinetics and mutational analyses, coupled with structural information, defined the roles of E52, D56, D59, F65 of motif 1, H178 of motif 2 and N91, K94, R107 and H109 of motif 3 play in uracil excision and cross-linking. More importantly, a series of quantitative analyses underscored the structural coupling through inter-motif and intra-motif interactions and subsequent functional coupling of the uracil excision and cross-linking reactions. A catalytic model is proposed, which underlies this catalytic feature unique to UDGX type enzymes. This study offers new insight on the catalytic mechanism of UDGX and provides a unique example of enzyme evolution.

Abstract
DNA-editing enzymes perform chemical reactions on DNA nucleobases. These reactions can change the genetic identity of the modified base or modulate gene expression. Interest in DNA-editing enzymes has burgeoned in recent years due to the advent of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat-associated (CRISPR-Cas) systems, which can be used to direct their DNA-editing activity to specific genomic loci of interest. In this review, we showcase DNA-editing enzymes that have been repurposed or redesigned and developed into programmable base editors. These include deaminases, glycosylases, methyltransferases, and demethylases. We highlight the astounding degree to which these enzymes have been redesigned, evolved, and refined and present these collective engineering efforts as a paragon for future efforts to repurpose and engineer other families of enzymes. Collectively, base editors derived from these DNA-editing enzymes facilitate programmable point mutation introduction and gene expression modulation by targeted chemical modification of nucleobases.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species damage DNA and result in health issues. The major damage product, 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8oG), is repaired by human adenine DNA glycosylase homologue (MUTYH). Although MUTYH misfunction is associated with a genetic disorder called MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) and MUTYH is a potential target for cancer drugs, the catalytic mechanism required to develop disease treatments is debated in the literature. This study uses molecular dynamics simulations and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics techniques initiated from DNA-protein complexes that represent different stages of the repair pathway to map the catalytic mechanism of the wild-type MUTYH bacterial homologue (MutY). This multipronged computational approach characterizes a DNA-protein cross-linking mechanism that is consistent with all previous experimental data and is a distinct pathway across the broad class of monofunctional glycosylase repair enzymes. In addition to clarifying how the cross-link is formed, accommodated by the enzyme, and hydrolyzed for product release, our calculations rationalize why cross-link formation is favored over immediate glycosidic bond hydrolysis, the accepted mechanism for all other monofunctional DNA glycosylases to date. Calculations on the Y126F mutant MutY highlight critical roles for active site residues throughout the reaction, while investigation of the N146S mutant rationalizes the connection between the analogous N224S MUTYH mutation and MAP. In addition to furthering our knowledge of the chemistry associated with a devastating disorder, the structural information gained about the distinctive MutY mechanism compared to other repair enzymes represents an important step for the development of specific and potent small-molecule inhibitors as cancer therapeutics.

Abstract
Family A DNA polymerases (PolAs) form an important and well-studied class of extant polymerases participating in DNA replication and repair. Nonetheless, despite the characterization of multiple subfamilies in independent, dedicated works, their comprehensive classification thus far is missing. We therefore re-examine all presently available PolA sequences, converting their pairwise similarities into positions in Euclidean space, separating them into 19 major clusters. While 11 of them correspond to known subfamilies, eight had not been characterized before. For every group, we compile their general characteristics, examine their phylogenetic relationships and perform conservation analysis in the essential sequence motifs. While most subfamilies are linked to a particular domain of life (including phages), one subfamily appears in Bacteria, Archaea and Eukaryota. We also show that two new bacterial subfamilies contain functional enzymes. We use AlphaFold2 to generate high-confidence prediction models for all clusters lacking an experimentally determined structure. We identify new, conserved features involving structural alterations, ordered insertions and an apparent structural incorporation of a uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) domain. Finally, genetic and structural analyses of a subset of T7-like phages indicate a splitting of the 3'-5' exo and pol domains into two separate genes, observed in PolAs for the first time.

Abstract
Chemical modifications in DNA have profound influences on the structures and functions of DNA. Uracil, a naturally occurring DNA modification, can originate from the deamination of cytosine or arise from misincorporation of dUTP into DNA during DNA replication. Uracil in DNA will imperil genomic stability due to their potential in producing detrimental mutations. An in-depth understanding of the functions of uracil modification requires the accurate determination of its site as well as content in genomes. Herein, we characterized that a new member of the uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) family enzyme (UdgX-H109S) could selectively cleave both uracil-containing single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). Based on this unique property of UdgX-H109S, we developed an enzymatic cleavage-mediated extension stalling (ECES) method for the locus-specific detection and quantification of uracil in genomic DNA. In the ECES method, UdgX-H109S specifically recognizes and cleaves the N-glycosidic bond of uracil from dsDNA and generates an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site, which could be broken by APE1 to form a one-nucleotide gap. The specific cleavage by UdgX-H109S is then evaluated and quantified by qPCR. With the developed ECES approach, we demonstrated that the level of uracil at position Chr4:50566961 in genomic DNA of breast cancer tissues was significantly decreased. Collectively, the ECES method has been proved to be accurate and reproducible in the locus-specific quantification of uracil in genomic DNA from biological and clinical samples.

Abstract
C-to-G base editors have been successfully constructed recently, but limited work has been done on concurrent C-to-G and A-to-G base editing. In addition, there is also limited data on how chromatin-associated factors affect the base editing. Here, we test a series of chromatin-associated factors, and chromosomal protein HMGN1 was found to enhance the efficiency of both C-to-G and A-to-G base editing. By fusing HMGN1, GBE and ABE to Cas9, we develop a CRISPR-based dual-function A-to-G and C-to-G base editor (GGBE) which is capable of converting simultaneous A and C to G conversion with substantial editing efficiency. Accordingly, the HMGN1 role shown in this work and the resulting GGBE tool further broaden the genome manipulation capacity of CRISPR-directed base editors.

Abstract
Uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) initiates base excision repair (BER) by removing damaged or modified nucleobases during DNA repair or mammalian demethylation. The UDG superfamily consists of at least six families with a variety of catalytic specificities and functions. Deinococcus radiodurans, an extreme radiation resistant bacterium, contains multiple members of UDG enzymes within its genome. The present study reveals that the putative protein, DR0022, is a uracil-DNA glycosylase that requires acidic conditions for its glycosylase activity, which is the first case of such an enzyme within the UDG superfamily. The key residues in the catalytic motifs are investigated by biochemical, enzyme kinetics, and de novo structural prediction, as well as molecular modeling analyses. The structural and catalytic roles of several distinct residues are discussed in light of predicted and modeled DR0022 glycosylase structures. The spontaneous mutation rate analysis performed in a dr0022 deficient D. radiodurans strain indicated that the dr0022 gene plays a role in mutation prevention. Furthermore, survival rate analysis in a dr0022 deficient D. radiodurans strain demonstrated its role in stress resistance, including γ-irradiation. Additionally, the novel acid UDG activity in relationship to its in vivo roles is discussed. This work underscores the functional diversity in the UDG superfamily.

Abstract
5-Methylcytosine (mC) is an epigenetic mark that impacts transcription, development, diseases including cancer and aging. The demethylation process involves Tet-mediated stepwise oxidation of mC to hmC, fC, or caC, excision of fC or caC by thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG), and subsequent base excision repair. Thymine-DNA glycosylase (TDG) belongs to uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) superfamily, which is a group of enzymes that are initially found to be responsible for excising the deaminated bases from DNA and generating apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites. mC oxidative derivatives may also be generated from Fenton chemistry and γ-irradiation. In screening DNA glycosylase activity in UDG superfamily, we identified new activity on fC- and caC-containing DNA in family 2 MUG/TDG and family 6 HDG enzymes. Surprisingly, we found a glycosylase SMUG2 from bacterium Pedobacter heparinus (Phe), a subfamily of family 3 SMUG1 DNA glycosylase, displayed catalytic activity towards not only DNA containing uracil, but also fC and caC. Given the sequence and structural differences between the family 3 and other family enzymes, we investigated the catalytic mechanism using mutational, enzyme kinetics and molecular modeling approaches. Mutational analysis and kinetics measurements identified I62, N63 and F76 of motif 1, and H205 of motif 2 in Phe SMUG2 as important catalytic residues, of which H205 of motif 2 played a critical role in catalyzing the removal of fC and caC. A catalytic model underlying the roles of these residues was proposed. The structural and catalytic differences between Phe SMUG2 and human TDG were compared by molecular modeling and molecular dynamics simulations. This study expands our understanding of DNA glycosylase capacity in UDG superfamily and provides insights into the molecular mechanism of fC and caC excision in Phe SMUG2.

Abstract
Bacteria are continuously exposed to numerous endogenous and exogenous DNA-damaging agents. To maintain genome integrity and ensure cell survival, bacteria have evolved several DNA repair pathways to correct different types of DNA damage and non-canonical bases, including strand breaks, nucleotide modifications, cross-links, mismatches and ribonucleotide incorporations. Recent advances in genome-wide screens, the availability of thousands of whole-genome sequences and advances in structural biology have enabled the rapid discovery and characterization of novel bacterial DNA repair pathways and new enzymatic activities. In this Review, we discuss recent advances in our understanding of base excision repair and nucleotide excision repair, and we discuss several new repair processes including the EndoMS mismatch correction pathway and the MrfAB excision repair system.

In vitro eradication of abasic site-mediated DNA-peptide/protein cross-links by Escherichia coli long-patch base excision repair. J Biol Chem 2022; 298:102055.

Abstract
Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP or abasic) sites are among the most abundant DNA lesions. Numerous proteins within different organisms ranging from bacteria to human have been demonstrated to react with AP sites to form covalent Schiff base DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs). These DPCs are unstable due to their spontaneous hydrolysis, but the half-lives of these cross-links can be as long as several hours. Such long-lived DPCs are extremely toxic due to their large sizes, which physically block DNA replication. Therefore, these adducts must be promptly eradicated to maintain genome integrity. Herein, we used in vitro reconstitution experiments with chemically synthesized, stable, and site-specific Schiff base AP-peptide/protein cross-link analogs to demonstrate for the first time that this type of DPC can be repaired by Escherichia coli (E. coli) long-patch base excision repair. We demonstrated that the repair process requires a minimum of three enzymes and five consecutive steps, including: (1) 5′-DNA strand incision of the DPC by endonuclease IV; (2 to 4) strand-displacement DNA synthesis, removal of the 5′-deoxyribose phosphate-peptide/protein adduct-containing flap, and gap-filling DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase I; and (5) strand ligation by a ligase. We further demonstrated that endonuclease IV plays a major role in incising an AP-peptide cross-link within E. coli cell extracts. We also report that eradicating model AP-protein (11.2–36.1 kDa) DPCs is less efficient than that of an AP-peptide10mer cross-link, supporting the emerging model that proteolysis is likely required for efficient DPC repair.

Abstract
As an aberrant base in DNA, uracil is generated by either deoxyuridine (dU) misincorporation or cytosine deamination, and involved in multiple physiological and pathological processes. Genome-wide profiles of uracil are important for study of these processes. Current methods for whole-genome mapping of uracil all rely on uracil-DNA N-glycosylase (UNG) and are limited in resolution, specificity, and/or sensitivity. Here, we developed a UdgX cross-linking and polymerase stalling sequencing ("Ucaps-seq") method to detect dU at single-nucleotide resolution. First, the specificity of Ucaps-seq was confirmed on synthetic DNA. Then the effectiveness of the approach was verified on two genomes from different sources. Ucaps-seq not only identified the enrichment of dU at dT sites in pemetrexed-treated cancer cells with globally elevated uracil but also detected dU at dC sites within the "WRC" motif in activated B cells which have increased dU in specific regions. Finally, Ucaps-seq was utilized to detect dU introduced by the cytosine base editor (nCas9-APOBEC) and identified a novel off-target site in cellular context. In conclusion, Ucaps-seq is a powerful tool with many potential applications, especially in evaluation of base editing fidelity.

Abstract
Programmable C•G-to-G•C base editors (CGBEs) have broad scientific and therapeutic potential, but their editing outcomes have proved difficult to predict and their editing efficiency and product purity are often low. We describe a suite of engineered CGBEs paired with machine learning models to enable efficient, high-purity C•G-to-G•C base editing. We performed a CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) screen targeting DNA repair genes to identify factors that affect C•G-to-G•C editing outcomes and used these insights to develop CGBEs with diverse editing profiles. We characterized ten promising CGBEs on a library of 10,638 genomically integrated target sites in mammalian cells and trained machine learning models that accurately predict the purity and yield of editing outcomes (R = 0.90) using these data. These CGBEs enable correction to the wild-type coding sequence of 546 disease-related transversion single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) with >90% precision (mean 96%) and up to 70% efficiency (mean 14%). Computational prediction of optimal CGBE-single-guide RNA pairs enables high-purity transversion base editing at over fourfold more target sites than achieved using any single CGBE variant.

Abstract
In the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) repair pathways, DNA repair enzymes have great significance for genomic integrity. As one important initiator of the base-excision repair pathway, the aberrant activity of uracil-DNA glycosylase (UDG) is closely associated with many diseases. Herein, we developed a simple distance-based device for visual detection of UDG activity using a load-free DNA hydrogel. The DNA hydrogel consists of polyacrylamide-DNA chains being bridged by a single-stranded DNA crosslinker containing a responsive uracil base site. UDG can recognize and remove the uracil, resulting in the cleavage effect of the DNA crosslinker strand with the assistance of endonuclease IV (Endo IV). Plugging one end of the capillary tube, the DNA hydrogel acting as a filter membrane separator would control molecules to flow into the tube. The integrity of the DNA hydrogel networks is affected by the excision of UDG. Therefore, taking full advantage of membrane filtration of the DNA hydrogel, the activity of UDG can be quantitatively detected via reading the distance of the red indicator solution in the capillary tube. Without any instruments and complicated procedures, this method realizes high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of UDG as low as 0.02 mU/mL and can even measure UDG in complex cell samples. Additionally, this method is simple, universal, and can be used to screen inhibitors, which shows great potential for point-of-care testing, clinical diagnosis, and drug discovery.

Abstract
Structural characterization of macromolecular assemblies is often limited by the transient nature of the interactions. The development of specific chemical tools to covalently tether interacting proteins to each other has played a major role in various fundamental discoveries in recent years. To this end, protein engineering techniques such as mutagenesis, incorporation of unnatural amino acids, and methods using synthetic substrate/cosubstrate derivatives were employed. In this review, we give an overview of both commonly used and recently developed biochemical methodologies for covalent stabilization of macromolecular complexes enabling structural investigation via crystallography, nuclear magnetic resonance, and cryo-electron microscopy. We divided the strategies into nonenzymatic- and enzymatic-driven cross-linking and further categorized them in either naturally occurring or engineered covalent linkage. This review offers a compilation of recent advances in diverse scientific fields where the structural characterization of macromolecular complexes was achieved by the aid of intermolecular covalent linkage.

Abstract
Covalent binding of DNA to proteins produces DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs). DPCs are formed as intermediates of enzymatic processes, generated from the reactions of protein nucleophiles with DNA electrophiles, and produced by endogenous and exogenous cross-linking agents. DPCs are heterogeneous due to the variations of DNA conjugation sites, flanking DNA structures, protein sizes, and cross-link bonds. Unrepaired DPCs are toxic because their bulky sizes physically block DNA replication and transcription, resulting in impaired genomic integrity. Compared to other types of DNA lesions, DPC repair is less understood. Emerging evidence suggests a general repair model that DPCs are proteolyzed by the proteasome and/or DPC proteases, followed by the peptide removal through canonical repair pathways. Herein, we first describe the recently discovered DPCs. We then review the mechanisms of DPC proteolysis with the focus on recently identified DPC proteases. Finally, distinct pathways that bypass or remove the cross-linked peptides following proteolysis are discussed.

Abstract
The appearance of uracil in the deoxyuridine moiety of DNA is among the most frequently occurring genomic modifications. Three different routes can result in genomic uracil, two of which do not require specific enzymes: spontaneous cytosine deamination due to the inherent chemical reactivity of living cells, and thymine-replacing incorporation upon nucleotide pool imbalances. There is also an enzymatic pathway of cytosine deamination with multiple DNA (cytosine) deaminases involved in this process. In order to describe potential roles of genomic uracil, it is of key importance to utilize efficient uracil-DNA detection methods. In this review, we provide a comprehensive and critical assessment of currently available uracil detection methods with special focus on genome-wide mapping solutions. Recent developments in PCR-based and in situ detection as well as the quantitation of genomic uracil are also discussed.

Abstract
Francisella tularensis is one of the most virulent pathogenic bacteria causing the acute human respiratory disease tularemia. While the mechanisms underlying F. tularensis pathogenesis are largely unknown, previous studies have shown that a F. novicida transposon mutant with insertions in a gene coding for a putative lysine decarboxylase was attenuated in mouse spleen, suggesting a possible role of its protein product as a virulence factor. Therefore, we set out to structurally and functionally characterize the F. novicida lysine decarboxylase, which we termed LdcF. Here, we investigate the genetic environment of ldcF as well as its evolutionary relationships with other basic AAT-fold amino acid decarboxylase superfamily members, known as key actors in bacterial adaptative stress response and polyamine biosynthesis. We determine the crystal structure of LdcF and compare it with the most thoroughly studied lysine decarboxylase, E. coli LdcI. We analyze the influence of ldcF deletion on bacterial growth under different stress conditions in dedicated growth media, as well as in infected macrophages, and demonstrate its involvement in oxidative stress resistance. Finally, our mass spectrometry-based quantitative proteomic analysis enables identification of 80 proteins with expression levels significantly affected by ldcF deletion, including several DNA repair proteins potentially involved in the diminished capacity of the F. novicida mutant to deal with oxidative stress. Taken together, we uncover an important role of LdcF in F. novicida survival in host cells through participation in oxidative stress response, thereby singling out this previously uncharacterized protein as a potential drug target.

Abstract
The AID/APOBEC enzymes deaminate cytosines in single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and play key roles in innate and adaptive immunity. The resulting uracils cause mutations and strand breaks that inactivate viruses and diversify antibody repertoire. Mutational evidence suggests that two members of this family, APOBEC3A (A3A) and APOBEC3B, deaminate cytosines in the lagging-strand template during replication. To obtain direct evidence for the presence of these uracils, we engineered a protein that covalently links to DNA at uracils, UdgX, for mammalian expression and immunohistochemistry. We show that UdgX strongly prefers uracils in ssDNA over those in U•G or U:A pairs, and localizes to nuclei in a dispersed form. When A3A is expressed in these cells, UdgX tends to form foci. The treatment of cells with cisplatin, which blocks replication, causes a significant increase in UdgX foci. Furthermore, this protein- and hence the uracils created by A3A- colocalize with replication protein A (RPA), but not with A3A. Using purified proteins, we confirm that RPA inhibits A3A by binding ssDNA, but despite its overexpression following cisplatin treatment, RPA is unable to fully protect ssDNA created by cisplatin adducts. This suggests that cisplatin treatment of cells expressing APOBEC3A should cause accumulation of APOBEC signature mutations.

Abstract
Thymine:guanine base pairs are major promutagenic mismatches occurring in DNA metabolism. If left unrepaired, these mispairs can cause C to T transition mutations. In humans, T:G mismatches are repaired in part by mismatch-specific DNA glycosylases such as methyl-CpG-binding domain 4 (hMBD4) and thymine-DNA glycosylase. Unlike lesion-specific DNA glycosylases, T:G-mismatch-specific DNA glycosylases specifically recognize both bases of the mismatch and remove the thymine but only from mispairs with guanine. Despite the advances in biochemical and structural characterizations of hMBD4, the catalytic mechanism of hMBD4 remains elusive. Herein, we report two structures of hMBD4 processing T:G-mismatched DNA. A high-resolution crystal structure of Asp560Asn hMBD4-T:G complex suggests that hMBD4-mediated glycosidic bond cleavage occurs via a general base catalysis mechanism assisted by Asp560. A structure of wild-type hMBD4 encountering T:G-containing DNA shows the generation of an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site bearing the C1'-(S)-OH. The inversion of the stereochemistry at the C1' of the AP-site indicates that a nucleophilic water molecule approaches from the back of the thymine substrate, suggesting a bimolecular displacement mechanism (SN2) for hMBD4-catalyzed thymine excision. The AP-site is stabilized by an extensive hydrogen bond network in the MBD4 catalytic site, highlighting the role of MBD4 in protecting the genotoxic AP-site.

Abstract
UdgX from Mycobacterium smegmatis (MsmUdgX) is a prototypical enzyme representing a new class of uracil-DNA glycosylases (UDG) closely related to the family 4 enzymes. It possesses a unique R-loop rich in positive residues and forms a covalent bond with single-stranded uracil-containing DNAs (ssDNA-Us) that is resistant to denaturants after the removal of the target uracil. We previously identified the H109E mutant of MsmUdgX that forms a weak covalent complex with ssDNA-U and yet possesses moderate uracil excision activity, but the mechanism of its action is not fully understood. To further study the catalytic process of MsmUdgX, we solved the high-resolution crystal structures of H109E in the free and DNA-bound forms, respectively. We found that the key residue Glu109 adopts a similar conformation to that of WT to form the covalent bond, suggesting that it still employs the same "excision-inhibition" mechanism to that of the WT enzyme. The enzyme remains nearly intact before and after the crosslinking reaction, but the first half of the R-loop exhibits large structural differences while the rest of the loop barely moves, owing to the salt-bridge interaction formed via Arg107. Additionally, Arg107, along with Gln53 was found to play important roles in the biochemical properties of MsmUdgX. Our studies provide new insights into the MsmUdgX catalysis and improve our understanding on this unique enzyme.

Abstract
Infectious diseases continue to be a major cause of human mortality. With the emergence of drug resistance, diseases that were long thought to have been curable by antibiotics are resurging. There is an urgent clinical need for newer antibiotics that target novel cellular pathways to overcome resistance to currently used therapeutics. The base excision repair (BER) pathways of the pathogen restore altered bases and safeguard the genomic integrity of the pathogen from the host's immune response. Although the BER machinery is of paramount importance to the survival of the pathogens, its potential as a drug target is largely unexplored. In this review, we discuss the importance of BER in different pathogenic organisms and the potential of its inhibition with small molecules.

Abstract
The occurrence of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (OG) in the genome, as one of the major DNA oxidative damages, has been implicated in an array of biological processes, ranging from mutagenesis to transcriptional regulation. Genome-wide mapping of oxidative damages could shed light on the underlying cellular mechanism. In the present study, we engineered the hOGG1 enzyme, a primary 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase, into a guanine oxidation-profiling tool. Our method, called enTRAP-seq, successfully identified more than 1400 guanine oxidation sites in the mouse embryonic fibroblast genome. These OG peaks were enriched in open chromatin regions and regulatory elements, including promoters, 5' untranslated regions, and CpG islands. Collectively, we present a simple and generalizable approach for the genome-wide profiling of DNA damages with high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Uracil is not always a mistakenly occurring base in DNA. Uracils in DNA genomes are known to be important in the life cycles of Bacillus subtilis phages (PBS1/2) and the malarial parasite, Plasmodium falciparum; and have been implicated in the development of fruit fly and antibody maturation in B-lymphocytes. Availability of a sensitive, specific and robust technique for the detection uracils in genes/genomes is essential to understand its varied biological roles. Mycobacterium smegmatis UdgX (MsmUdgX), identified and characterised in our laboratory, forms covalent complexes with the uracil sites in DNA in a specific manner. MsmUdgX cleaves the glycosidic bond between uracil and the deoxyribose sugar in DNA to produce uracilate and oxocarbenium ions. The oxocarbenium ion is then captured into a covalent complex by the nucleophilic attack of a histidine side chain of MsmUdgX. Here, we describe the use of a fusion protein, mCherry tagged MsmUdgX (mChUdgX), which combines the property of MsmUdgX to covalently and specifically bind the uracil sites in the genome, with the sensitivity of fluorescent detection of mCherry as a reporter. We show that both the purified mChUdgX and the Escherichia coli cell-extracts overexpressing mChUdgX provide high sensitivity and specificity of detecting uracils in DNA.

Abstract
N7-Methyl-2'-deoxyguanosine (MdG) is the major damage product in DNA produced by methylating agents, but it often thought to be nontoxic and nonmutagenic. MdG is chemically unstable. An abasic site (AP) is the major product produced from MdG under physiologically relevant conditions. AP formation is frequently considered to be responsible for the cytotoxic effects of MdG, but the reaction is suppressed in nucleosome core particles (NCPs). Recently, it was discovered that histone proteins form reversible DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) with MdG in reconstituted NCPs, as well as in methylmethanesulfonate (MMS) treated cells. In this study, the formation and reactivity of MdG in MMS treated NCPs was examined at single nucleotide resolution. Sequences consisting of three or more consecutive dGs are more reactive with MMS. The efficiency and selectivity of MdG formation by MMS is largely unaffected within a NCP, although reactivity at several dGs is ∼1.5-2.5-fold higher in NCPs. DPC formation from MdG (DPCMdG) predominates over AP at all positions within the NCP. With few exceptions, DPCMdG yield is strongly dependent upon the accessibility of the major groove containing MdG to lysine-rich histone N-terminal tails. These data indicate that histone-MdG DPC formation will depend upon DNA sequence and translational position within an NCP.
