Abstract
Ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) has endonuclease activity for DNA repair. In particular, rpS3 cleaves the phosphodiester bonds of damaged DNA. In this study, we show that the repair domain of rpS3 spans amino acids 144-189. We fused rpS3 with the transactivator of transcription (TAT) sequence to introduce the rpS3 repair domain into cells. We find that the TAT-rpS3 (aa: 144-189) peptide cleaves UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) in cells. We also reveal that the TAT-rpS3 peptide reduces matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) induction in UV-irradiated fibroblasts and increases cell migration activity. Taken together, our study suggests that penetration of the rpS3 repair domain into cells can cleave UV-induced CPDs and reduce MMP-1 expression induced by UV.

[PMID: 30475795 PMCID: PMC6283612 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1007818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/26/2018] [Revised: 12/06/2018] [Accepted: 11/07/2018] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
No-go Decay (NGD) is a process that has evolved to deal with stalled ribosomes resulting from structural blocks or aberrant mRNAs. The process is distinguished by an endonucleolytic cleavage prior to degradation of the transcript. While many of the details of the pathway have been described, the identity of the endonuclease remains unknown. Here we identify residues of the small subunit ribosomal protein Rps3 that are important for NGD by affecting the cleavage reaction. Mutation of residues within the ribosomal entry tunnel that contact the incoming mRNA leads to significantly reduced accumulation of cleavage products, independent of the type of stall sequence, and renders cells sensitive to damaging agents thought to trigger NGD. These phenotypes are distinct from those seen in combination with other NGD factors, suggesting a separate role for Rps3 in NGD. Conversely, ribosomal proteins ubiquitination is not affected by rps3 mutations, indicating that upstream ribosome quality control (RQC) events are not dependent on these residues. Together, these results suggest that Rps3 is important for quality control on the ribosome and strongly supports the notion that the ribosome itself plays a central role in the endonucleolytic cleavage reaction during NGD. In all organisms, optimum cellular fitness depends on the ability of cells to recognize and degrade aberrant molecules. Messenger RNA is subject to alterations and, as a result, often presents roadblocks for the translating ribosomes. It is not surprising, then, that organisms evolved pathways to resolve these valuable stuck ribosomes. In eukaryotes, this process is called no-go decay (NGD) because it is coupled with decay of mRNAs that are associated with ribosomes that do not ‘go’. This decay process initiates with cleavage of the mRNA near the stall site, but some important details about this reaction are lacking. Here, we show that the ribosome itself is very central to the cleavage reaction. In particular, we identified a pair of residues of a ribosomal protein to be important for cleavage efficiency. These observations are consistent with prior structural studies showing that the residues make intimate contacts with the incoming mRNA in the entry tunnel. Altogether our data provide important clues about this quality-control pathway and suggest that the endonuclease not only recognizes stalled ribosomes but may have coevolved with the translation machinery to take advantage of certain residues of the ribosome to fulfill its function.

Exp Mol Med 2017; 49:e390. [PMID: 29147007 PMCID: PMC5704183 DOI: 10.1038/emm.2017.128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2017] [Revised: 03/25/2017] [Accepted: 03/27/2017] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
When a ribosome complex is stalled during the translation elongation process in eukaryotes, the mono-ubiquitination of Rps3 has recently been shown to be critical to ribosome quality control. We have discovered that the regulatory role of Rps3 mono-ubiquitination is controlled by a deubiquitinase. We also showed that an autophagic signal appears to be coupled to the mono-ubiquitination of Rps3p through the entrance of Ubp3p into the autophagosome in yeasts. The mono-ubiquitination of the Rps3 protein is tightly modulated by reciprocal action between the Hel2p E3 ligase and the Ubp3p deubiquitinase in yeasts and the reciprocal action between the RNF123 E3 ligase and the USP10 deubiquitinase in mammalian cells. We also found that the Ubp3p/USP10 deubiquitinases critically modulate Hel2p/RNF123-mediated Rps3p mono-ubiquitination. In addition, we found that Hel2p/RNF123 and Ubp3p/USP10 appeared to be differently localized in the ribosome complex after ultraviolet irradiation. Together, our results support a model in which coordinated ubiquitination and deubiquitination activities can finely balance the level of regulatory Rps3p mono-ubiquitination in ribosome-associated quality control and autophagy processes.

Abstract
Pests have been subjected to heavy selection pressure, and the development of resistance to pyrethroid has been recorded. It is extremely valuable to identify the resistance genes that are relevant for pest control. In our previous studies, we reported that UBL40 is the deltamethrin resistance-associated gene. UBL40 is cleaved by specific endopeptidases to release UB and L40. Whether UB or L40 participates in deltamethrin resistance requires further study. In this study, quantitative real-time PCR was applied to reveal that UB and L40 were both overexpressed in Drosophila kc cells after deltamethrin stimulation. To investigate the roles of UB and L40 further, RNA interferences (RNAi) and cell transfections were utilized. UB and L40 knockdown both significantly reduced the level of resistance of RNAi-treated cells after 48 h, and the overexpressions of UB and L40 in Drosophila kc cells conferred a degree of protection against deltamethrin. These results represent the first evidence that UB and L40 both play roles in the regulation of deltamethrin resistance and that this study could help us to elucidate the resistance mechanisms and identify new target genes associated with resistance.

Abstract
The human ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) has multi-functions such as translation, DNA repair and apoptosis. These multiple functions are regulated by post-translational modifications including phosphorylation, methylation and sumoylation. We report here a novel function of rpS3 that is involved in mitosis. When we examined localization of ribosomal proteins in mitosis, we found that rpS3 specifically localizes on the mitotic spindle. Depletion of the rpS3 proteins caused mitotic arrest during the metaphase. Furthermore, the shape of the spindle and chromosome movement in the rpS3 depleted cell was abnormal. Microtubule (MT) polymerization also decreased in rpS3 depleted cells, suggesting that rpS3 is involved in spindle dynamics. Therefore, we concluded that rpS3 acts as a microtubule associated protein (MAP) and regulates spindle dynamics during mitosis.

Abstract
The natural product leinamycin has been found to produce abasic sites in duplex DNA through the hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond of guanine residues modified by this drug. In the present study, using a synthetic oligonucleotide duplex, we demonstrate spontaneous DNA strand cleavage at leinamycin-induced abasic sites through a β-elimination reaction. However, methoxyamine modification of leinamycin-induced abasic sites was found to be refractory to the spontaneous β-elimination reaction. Furthermore, this complex was even resistant to the δ-elimination reaction with hot piperidine treatment. Bleomycin and methyl methanesulfonate also induced strand cleavage in a synthetic oligonucleotide duplex even without thermal treatment. However, methoxyamine has a negligible effect on DNA strand cleavage induced by both drugs, suggesting that the mechanism of DNA cleavage induced by leinamycin might be different from those induced by bleomycin or methyl methanesulfonate. In this study, we also assessed the cytotoxicity of leinamycin against a collection of mammalian cell lines defective in various repair pathways. The mammalian cell line defective in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) or base excision repair (BER) pathways was about 3 to 5 times more sensitive to leinamycin as compared to the parental cell line. In contrast, the radiosensitive mutant xrs-5 cell line deficient in V(D)J recombination showed similar sensitivity towards leinamycin compared to the parental cell line. Collectively, our findings suggest that both NER and BER pathways play an important role in the repair of DNA damage caused by leinamycin.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION It was demonstrated that metallopanstimulin-1 (MPS-1, RPS27) inhibited the growth of tumors formed by head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells and reduced paxillin gene expression. METHODS The present study examined whether and how MPS-1 affects another type of cancer, multiple myeloma (CAG). Enhanced expression of MPS-1 dramatically inhibited CAG in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS Overexpression of MPS-1 resulted in decreased fibroblast growth factor (FGF2) receptor 3 and impaired endogenous MAPK/ErK signaling. MAPK/ErK signaling was not stimulated by adding recombinant FGF2 to myeloma cells overexpressing MPS-1. CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that MPS-1 suppresses CAG growth and that weakened FGF2 signaling may contribute to this effect.

Abstract
Human ribosomal protein S3 (hRpS3) is a small ribosomal subunit showing apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activity and has been suggested to play a role in the cellular DNA-damage response pathway. However, the functional interactions between hRpS3 and other base excision repair (BER) DNA glycosylases have not been reported. We identified, for the first time, the interaction between hRpS3 and human uracil-DNA glycosylase (hUNG) and investigated the functional consequences of this interaction. hRpS3 was shown to interact with hUNG in co-immunoprecipitation assay using transiently transfected HEK293 cells and GST pull-down assay using microbial expression systems. In an assay using a 5'-end-radiolabeled 39-mer oligonucleotide duplex containing a U/G mismatch, hRpS3 dramatically stimulated the uracil-excision activity of hUNG, whereas hRpS3 alone had no cleavage activity. Pre-incubation of hRpS3 with the U/G mismatch containing DNA duplex also increased the hUNG uracil-excision activity; however, hRpS3 did not increase the DNA binding activity of hUNG in a trapping assay of hUNG and the U/G mismatch containing DNA duplex using UV cross-linking. hRpS3 has been suggested to stimulate the uracil-excision activity of hUNG by enhancing its dissociation from AP sites and increasing its turn-over rate. The disruption of hRpS3 by small-interfering RNA (siRNA-hRpS3) transfection reduced the uracil-excision activity preserved in cell extracts, whereas the supplement of purified hRpS3 retained uracil-excision activity. These results strongly suggest that hRpS3 may be involved in the uracil-excision pathway, probably by participating in the DNA repair mechanism to remove uracil generated by the deamination of cytosine in DNA, and by preventing C/G-->T/A transition mutations.

Abstract
In Drosophila melanogaster, ribosomal protein RpS3 has extra-ribosomal activities including apurinic/apyrimidinic lyase activity and N-glycosylase activity that participate in DNA repair. It has been suggested that these activities couple DNA repair to the translational machinery. To establish a basis for participation of RpS3 in DNA repair in mosquitoes, we cloned RpS3 cDNAs from Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquito cell lines. The sequence data were used to reconstruct the homologous gene from the Anopheles gambiae database. Mosquito RpS3 is a single copy gene, which in Aedes albopictus, lacks introns in the amino acid coding region. Although RpS3 proteins are well-conserved among eukaryotes, a critical glutamine residue, Q59, essential to robust DNA repair activity in the Drosophila protein, is replaced by an asparagine (N) in all three mosquito RpS3 proteins. In this respect, the mosquito protein resembles human RpS3, which has relatively modest DNA repair activity. None of the insect RpS3 proteins available in the database, other than those from Drosophila, contain glutamine at position 59. However, in the Lepidoptera, N59 is consistently replaced by serine (S), and the putative interactive site at position 134 is replaced by arginine (R). These data suggest that in the case of RpS3, the Drosophila protein may be uniquely unusual in having robust DNA repair activities that are unlikely to be common to RpS3 from other insects.

Abstract
Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites, a prominent type of DNA damage, are repaired through the base excision repair mechanism in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes and may interfere with many other cellular processes. A full repertoire of AP site-binding proteins in cells is presently unknown, preventing reliable assessment of harm inflicted by these ubiquitous lesions and of their involvement in the flux of DNA metabolism. We present a proteomics-based strategy for assembling at least a partial catalogue of proteins capable of binding AP sites in DNA. The general scheme relies on the sensitivity of many AP site-bound protein species to NaBH(4) cross-linking. An affinity-tagged substrate is used to facilitate isolation of the cross-linked species, which are then separated and analyzed by mass spectrometry methods. We report identification of seven proteins from Escherichia coli (AroF, DnaK, MutM, PolA, TnaA, TufA, and UvrA) and two proteins from bakers' yeast (ARC1 and Ygl245wp) reactive for AP sites in this system.

Abstract
The human ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) was expressed in E. coli using the pET-15b vector and the monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were produced and characterized. A total of five hybridoma cell lines were established and the antibodies recognized a single band of molecular weight of 33 kDa on immunoblot with purified rpS3. When the purified rpS3 was incubated with the mAbs, the UV endonuclease activity of rpS3 was inhibited up to a maximum of 49%. The binding affinity of mAbs to rpS3 determined by using a biosensor technology showed that they have similar binding affinities. Using the anti-rpS3 antibodies as probes, we investigated the cross-reactivities of various other mammalian brain tissues and cell lines, including human. The immunoreactive bands on Western blots appeared to be the same molecular mass of 33 kDa in all animal species tested. They also appear to be extensively cross-reactive among different organs in rat. These results demonstrated that only one type of immunologically similar rpS3 protein is present in all of the mammalian brain tissues including human. Furthermore, these antibodies were successfully applied in immunohistochemistry in order to detect rpS3 in the gerbil brain tissues. Among the various regions in the brain tissues, the rpS3 positive neurons were predominantly observed in the ependymal cells, hippocampus and stantia nigra pars compacta. The different distributions of rpS3 in brain tissues reply that rpS3 protein may play an important second function in the neuronal cells.

Abstract
Ribosomal protein S3 (rpS3) is a multifunctional ribosomal protein (RP) which is known to function as a DNA repair endonuclease as well as an RP. Recently, it was reported that rpS3 is involved in apoptosis. We identified the complete 4760 base pair genomic structure of the mouse rpS3 gene, which is composed of 7 exons and 6 introns. Promoter study revealed that transcription of the mouse rpS3 gene started at two C residues embedded in the 5'-terminal oligopyrimidine tract (5'-TOP); this was then compared with the human counterpart. Functional U15 small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) were expressed from the first and the fifth introns. About 300 base pairs (bps) upstream of the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of the mouse rpS3 gene was sufficient to show maximum transcription activity. This report shows the conservation of the genomic structure of the rpS3 gene in vertebrates and characteristics of its promoter similar to those of promoters of other mammalian RPs.

Abstract
Oxidative damage to DNA caused by free radicals and other oxidants generate base and sugar damage, strand breaks, clustered sites, tandem lesions and DNA-protein cross-links. Oxidative DNA damage is mainly repaired by base-excision repair in living cells with the involvement of DNA glycosylases in the first step and other enzymes in subsequent steps. DNA glycosylases remove modified bases from DNA, generating an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site. Some of these enzymes that remove oxidatively modified DNA bases also possess AP-lyase activity to cleave DNA at AP sites. DNA glycosylases possess varying substrate specificities, and some of them exhibit cross-activity for removal of both pyrimidine- and purine-derived lesions. Most studies on substrate specificities and excision kinetics of DNA glycosylases were performed using oligonucleotides with a single modified base incorporated at a specific position. Other studies used high-molecular weight DNA containing multiple pyrimidine- and purine-derived lesions. In this case, substrate specificities and excision kinetics were found to be different from those observed with oligonucleotides. This paper reviews substrate specificities and excision kinetics of DNA glycosylases for removal of pyrimidine- and purine-derived lesions in high-molecular weight DNA.

Abstract
In the yeast S. cerevisiae, ribosome assembly is linked to environmental conditions by the coordinate transcriptional regulation of genes required for ribosome biogenesis. In this study we show that two nonessential stress-responsive genes, YAR1 and LTV1, function in 40S subunit production. We provide genetic and biochemical evidence that Yar1, a small ankyrin-repeat protein, physically interacts with RpS3, a component of the 40S subunit, and with Ltv1, a protein recently identified as a substoichiometric component of a 43S preribosomal particle. We demonstrate that cells lacking YAR1 or LTV1 are hypersensitive to particular protein synthesis inhibitors and exhibit aberrant polysome profiles, with a reduced absolute number of 40S subunits and an excess of free 60S subunits. Surprisingly, both mutants are also hypersensitive to a variety of environmental stress conditions. Overexpression of RPS3 suppresses both the stress sensitivity and the ribosome biogenesis defect of Deltayar1 mutants, but does not suppress either defect in Deltaltv1 mutants. We propose that YAR1 and LTV1 play distinct, nonessential roles in 40S subunit production. The stress-sensitive phenotypes of strains lacking these genes reveal a hitherto unknown link between ribosome biogenesis factors and environmental stress sensitivity.

Abstract
It is known that mammalian rpS3 functions as a DNA repair endonuclease and ribosomal protein S3. It was also observed that several ribosomal proteins or DNA repair enzymes are related to apoptosis. We report here a third function of rpS3, induction of apoptosis. The localization of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-rpS3 is changed to the nuclear membrane when lymphocytic cells undergo rpS3-induced apoptosis. Transient expression of GFP-rpS3 activates caspase-8/caspase-3 and sensitizes cytokine-induced apoptosis. Deletion analysis reveals that the two functions of rpS3, DNA repair and apoptosis, use independent functional domains.

Abstract
The S3 ribosomal protein of Drosophila melanogaster possesses various DNA repair activities, including the capacity to incise at apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) residues. We have recently hypothesized that this multifunctional protein may improve the efficiency of DNA base excision repair (BER) in mammalian cells. We have investigated the effect of pure GST-tagged Drosophila S3 on BER of different endogenous lesions performed by human and mouse cell extracts. Drosophila S3 significantly accelerated the BER of 8-oxoG (initiated by the bifunctional glycosylase OGG1). The stimulating effect was linked to the capacity of S3 to remove the 8-oxoG lesion and cleave the resulting AP site, rather than acceleration of downstream steps of the BER pathway (e.g., removal of 3' blocking fragments). No stimulating effect was observed on the BER of uracil, natural AP sites, and beta-lyase-cleaved AP sites. Heterologous expression of Drosophila S3 may be used to enhance 8-oxoG repair in human cells.

Abstract
DNA beta-polymerase (beta-pol) carries out two critical enzymatic reactions in mammalian single-nucleotide base excision repair (BER): DNA synthesis to fill the repair patch and lyase removal of the 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (dRP) group following cleavage of the abasic site by apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease (1). The requirement for beta-pol in single-nucleotide BER is exemplified in mouse fibroblasts with a null mutation in the beta-pol gene. These cells are hypersensitive to monofunctional DNA methylating agents such as methyl methane-sulfonate (MMS) (2). This hypersensitivity is associated with an abundance of chromosomal damage and induction of apoptosis and necrotic cell death (3). We have found that beta-pol null cells are defective in repair of MMS-induced DNA lesions, consistent with a cellular BER deficiency as a causative agent in the observed hypersensitivity. Further, the N-terminal 8-kDa domain of beta-pol, which contains the dRP lyase activity in the wild-type enzyme, is sufficient to reverse the methylating agent hypersensitivity in beta-pol null cells. These results indicate that lyase removal of the dRP group is a pivotal step in BER in vivo. Finally, we examined MMS-induced genomic DNA mutagenesis in two isogenic mouse cell lines designed for study of the role of BER. MMS exposure strongly increases mutant frequency in beta-pol null cells, but not in wild-type cells. With MMS treatment, beta-pol null cells have a higher frequency of all six base-pair substitutions, suggesting that BER plays a role in protecting the cell against methylation-induced mutations.

Abstract
The Drosophila S3 ribosomal protein has important roles in both protein translation and DNA repair. In regards to the latter activity, it has been shown that S3 contains vigorous N-glycosylase activity for the removal of 8-oxoguanine residues in DNA that leaves baseless sites in their places. Drosophila S3 also possesses an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activity in which the enzyme catalyzes a beta-elimination reaction that cleaves phosphodiester bonds 3' and adjacent to an AP lesion in DNA. In certain situations, this is followed by a delta-elimination reaction that ultimately leads to the formation of a single nucleotide gap in DNA bordered by 5'- and 3'-phosphate groups. The human S3 protein, although 80% identical to its Drosophila homolog and shorter by only two amino acids, has only marginal N-glycosylase activity. Its lyase activity only cleaves AP DNA by a beta-elimination reaction, thus further distinguishing itself from the Drosophila S3 protein in lacking a delta-elimination activity. Using a hidden Markov model analysis based on the crystal structures of several DNA repair proteins, the enzymatic differences between Drosophila and human S3 were suggested by the absence of a conserved glutamine residue in human S3 that usually resides at the cleft of the deduced active site pocket of DNA glycosylases. Here we show that the replacement of the Drosophila glutamine by an alanine residue leads to the complete loss of glycosylase activity. Unexpectedly, the delta-elimination reaction at AP sites was also abrogated by a change in the Drosophila glutamine residue. Thus, a single amino acid change converted the Drosophila activity into one that is similar to that possessed by the human S3 protein. In support of this were experiments executed in vivo that showed that human S3 and the Drosophila site-directed glutamine-changed S3 performed poorly when compared with Drosophila wild-type S3 and its ability to protect a bacterial mutant from the harmful effects of DNA-damaging agents.

Abstract
The genetic stability of living cells is continuously threatened by the presence of endogenous reactive oxygen species and other genotoxic molecules. Of particular threat are the thousands of DNA single-strand breaks that arise in each cell, each day, both directly from disintegration of damaged sugars and indirectly from the excision repair of damaged bases. If un-repaired, single-strand breaks can be converted into double-strand breaks during DNA replication, potentially resulting in chromosomal rearrangement and genetic deletion. Consequently, cells have adopted multiple pathways to ensure the rapid and efficient removal of single-strand breaks. A general feature of these pathways appears to be the extensive employment of protein-protein interactions to stimulate both the individual component steps and the overall repair reaction. Our current understanding of DNA single-strand break repair is discussed, and testable models for the architectural coordination of this important process are presented.

Abstract
Cells harvested from Fanconi anemia (FA) patients show an increased hypersensitivity to the multifunctional DNA damaging agent mitomycin C (MMC), which causes cross-links in DNA as well as 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) adducts indicative of escalated oxidative DNA damage. We show here that the Drosophila multifunctional S3 cDNA, which encodes an N-glycosylase/apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activity was found to correct the FA Group A (FA(A)) and FA Group C (FA(C)) sensitivity to MMC and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Furthermore, the Drosophila S3 cDNA was shown to protect AP endonuclease deficient E. coli cells against H(2)O(2) and MMC, and also protect 8-oxoG repair deficient mutM E. coli strains against MMC and H2O2 cell toxicity. Conversely, the human S3 protein failed to complement the AP endonuclease deficient E. coli strain, most likely because it lacks N-glycosylase activity for the repair of oxidatively-damaged DNA bases. Although the human S3 gene is clearly not the genetic alteration in FA cells, our results suggest that oxidative DNA damage is intimately involved in the overall FA phenotype, and the cytotoxic effect of selective DNA damaging agents in FA cells can be overcome by trans-complementation with specific DNA repair cDNAs. Based on these findings, we would predict other oxidative repair proteins, or oxidative scavengers, could serve as protective agents against the oxidative DNA damage that occurs in FA.

Abstract
In Drosophila, the S3 ribosomal protein has been shown to act as a DNA glycosylase/AP lyase capable of releasing 8-hydroxyguanine (8-OH-Gua) in damaged DNA. Here we describe a second Drosophila protein (dOgg1) with 8-OH-Gua and abasic (AP) site DNA repair activities. The Drosophila OGG1 gene codes for a protein of 327 amino acids, which shows 33 and 37% identity with the yeast and human Ogg1 proteins, respectively. The DNA glycosylase activity of purified dOgg1 was investigated using gamma-irradiated DNA and gas chromatography/isotope dilution mass spectrometry (GC/IDMS). The dOgg1 protein excises 8-OH-Gua and 2, 6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua) from gamma-irradiated DNA. with k(ca)(t)/K:(M) values of 21.0 x 10(-5) and 11.2 x 10(-5) (min(-1) nM(-1)), respectively. Enzymatic assays using oligodeoxyribonucleotides containing a single lesion show that dOgg1 displays a marked preference for DNA duplexes containing 8-OH-Gua, 8-OH-Ade or an AP site placed opposite a cytosine. The cleavage of the 8-OH-Gua-containing strand results from the excision of the damaged base followed by a ss-elimination reaction at the 3'-side of the resulting AP site. Cleavage of 8-OH-Gua.C duplex involves the formation of a reaction intermediate that is converted into a stable covalent adduct in the presence of sodium borohydre. dOgg1 complements the mutator phenotype of fpg mutY mutants of Escherichia coli. Whole-mount in situ hybridizations on tissues at different stages of Drosophila development reveal that the dOGG1 messenger is expressed uniformly at a low level in cells in which mitotic division occurs. Therefore, Drosophila possesses two DNA glycosylase activities that can excise 8-OH-Gua and formamidopyrimidines from DNA, dOgg1 and the ribosomal protein S3.

Abstract
The DNA base excision repair (BER) pathway is responsible for the repair of cellular alkylation and oxidative DNA damage. A crucial and the second step in the BER pathway involves the cleavage of baseless sites in DNA by an AP endonuclease. The major AP endonuclease in mammalian cells is Ape1/ref-1. Ape1/ref-1 is a multifunctional protein that is not only responsible for repair of AP sites, but also functions as a reduction-oxidation (redox) factor maintaining transcription factors in an active reduced state. Ape1/ref-1 has been shown to stimulate the DNA binding activity of numerous transcription factors that are involved in cancer promotion and progression such as Fos, Jun, NF(B, PAX, HIF-1(, HLF and p53. Ape1/ref-1 has also been implicated in the activation of bioreductive drugs which require reduction in order to be active and has been shown to interact with a subunit of the Ku antigen to act as a negative regulator of the parathyroid hormone promoter, as well as part of the HREBP transcription factor complex. Ape1/ref-1 levels have been found to be elevated in a number of cancers such as ovarian, cervical, prostate, rhabdomyosarcomas and germ cell tumors and correlated with the radiosensitivity of cervical cancers. In this review, we have attempted to try and assimilated as much data concerning Ape1/ref-1 and incorporate the rapidly growing information on Ape1/ref-1 in a wide variety of functions and systems.

Abstract
Tortula ruralis (Syntrichia ruralis) is an important model system for the study of plant vegetative desiccation tolerance. One of the most intriguing aspects of desiccation-tolerant plants is the maintenance of key cellular components in stable and viable forms in the desiccated state, particularly those related to the translational apparatus (i.e. ribosomes and ribosomal RNAs). This study investigated the third integral component of the translational apparatus, the ribosomal proteins. Three T. ruralis cDNAs encoding predicted polypeptides with significant similarity to ribosomal proteins were isolated from a cDNA expression library derived from the polysomal, messenger ribonucleoprotein particle (mRNP) fraction of desiccated gametophytes; Rps14 and Rps16 encode the small-subunit ribosomal proteins RPS14 and RPS16, respectively, and Rpl23 encodes the large-subunit ribosomal protein RPL23. RPS14, RPS16 and RPL23, the deduced polypeptides, have predicted molecular masses of 14.4 kDa, 16.2 kDa and 14.9 kDa and predicted pI's of 11.08, 10.34 and 10. 67, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences demonstrated that each of the T. ruralis proteins is most similar to ribosomal proteins from higher plants even though RPS14 and RPL23 show high divergence from their other plant counterparts. RNA blot hybridizations of RNAs present within the polysomal mRNP fraction (i.e. the 100 Kxg pellet) demonstrated that Rps14, Rps16 and Rpl23 are expressed in moss gametophytes during a desiccation-rehydration cycle and, according to the prior cDNA classification scheme in T. ruralis, are constitutive clones. These findings clearly demonstrated that Rps14, Rps16 and Rpl23 transcripts are retained within the polysomal fractions of desiccated gametophytes.

Abstract
Genomic DNA is prone to oxidation by reactive oxygen species. A major product of DNA oxidation is the miscoding base 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). The mutagenic effects of 8-oxoG in mammalian cells are prevented by a DNA repair system consisting of 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (Ogg1), adenine-DNA glycosylase, and 8-oxo-dGTPase. We have cloned, overexpressed, and characterized mOgg1, the product of the murine ogg1 gene. mOgg1 is a DNA glycosylase/AP lyase belonging to the endonuclease III family of DNA repair enzymes. The AP lyase activity of mOgg1 is significantly lower than its glycosylase activity. mOgg1 releases 8-oxoG from DNA when paired with C, T, or G, but efficient DNA strand nicking is observed only with 8-oxoG:C. Binding of mOgg1 to oligonucleotides containing 8-oxoG:C is strong (K(D) = 51.5 nm), unlike other mispairs. The average residence time for mOgg1 bound to substrate containing 8-oxoG:C is 18.3 min; the time course for accumulation of the NaBH(4)-sensitive intermediate suggests a two-step reaction mechanism. Various analogs of 8-oxoG were tested as substrates for mOgg1. An electron-withdrawing or hydrogen bond acceptor moiety at C8 is required for efficient binding of mOgg1. A substituent at C6 and a keto group at C8 are required for cleavage. The proposed mechanism of 8-oxoG excision involves protonation of O(8) or the deoxyribose oxygen moiety.

Abstract
Small DNA lesions such as oxidized or alkylated bases are repaired by the base excision repair (BER) pathway. BER includes removal of the damaged base by a lesion-specific DNA glycosylase, strand scission by apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease, DNA resynthesis and ligation. BER may be further subdivided into DNA beta-polymerase (beta-pol)-dependent single-nucleotide repair and beta-pol-dependent or -independent long patch repair subpathways. Two important enzymatic steps in mammalian single-nucleotide BER are contributed by beta-pol: DNA resynthesis of the repair patch and lyase removal of 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (dRP). Fibroblasts from beta-pol null mice are hypersensitive to mono-functional DNA-methylating agents, resulting in increases in chromosomal damage, apoptosis and necrotic cell death. Here we show that only the dRP lyase activity of beta-pol is required to reverse methylating agent hypersensitivity in beta-pol null cells. These results indicate that removal of the dRP group is a pivotal step in BER in vivo. Persistence of the dRP moiety in DNA results in the hypersensitivity phenotype of beta-pol null cells and may signal downstream events such as apoptosis and necrotic cell death.

Abstract
A significant contribution to human mutagenesis and carcinogenesis may come from DNA damage of endogenous, rather than exogenous, origin. Efficient repair mechanisms have evolved to cope with this. The main repair pathway involved in repair of endogenous damage is DNA base excision repair. In addition, an important contribution is given by O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltranferase, that repairs specifically the miscoding base O6-alkylguanine. In recent years, several attempts have been carried out to enhance the efficiency of repair of endogenous damage by overexpressing in mammalian cells single enzymatic activities. In some cases (e.g. O6-alkylguanine DNA alkyltransferase or yeast AP endonuclease) this approach has been successful in improving cellular protection from endogenous and exogenous mutagens, while overexpression of other enzymatic activities (e.g. alkyl N-purine glycosylase or DNA polymerase beta) were detrimental and even produced a genome instability phenotype. The reasons for these different outcomes are analyzed and alternative enzymatic activities whose overexpression may improve the efficiency of repair of endogenous damage in human cells are proposed.

Abstract
The Drosophila S3 protein is known to be associated with ribosomes, where it is thought to play a role in the initiation of protein translation. The S3 protein also contains a DNA repair activity, efficiently processing 8-oxoguanine residues in DNA via an N-glycosylase/apurinic-apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activity. The gene that encodes S3 has previously been localized to one of the Minute loci on chromosome 3 in Drosophila. This study focused on the genomic organization of S3 at M(3)95A, initial promoter characterization, and analysis of three mutant alleles at this locus. The S3 gene was found to be a single-copy gene 2 to 3 kb in length and containing a single intron. The upstream 1.6-kb region was analyzed for promoter activity, identifying a presumptive regulatory domain containing potential enhancer and suppressor elements. This finding is of interest, as the S3 gene is constitutively expressed throughout development and mRNA is most likely maternally inherited. Lastly, three Minute alleles from the same locus were sequenced and two alleles found to contain a 22-bp deletion in exon 2, resulting in a truncated S3 protein, although wildtype levels of S3 mRNA and protein were detected in the viable heterozygous Minute alleles, possibly reflecting dosage compensation.

Abstract
Enzymes that release 5'-deoxyribose-5-phosphate (dRP) residues from preincised apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) DNA have been collectively termed DNA deoxyribophosphodiesterases (dRPases), but they fall into two distinct categories: the hydrolytic dRPases and AP lyases. In order to resolve a number of conflicting reports in the dRPase literature, we examined two putative hydrolytic dRPases (Escherichia coli exonuclease I (exo I) and RecJ) and four AP lyases (E. coli 2, 6-dihydroxy-5N-formamidopyrimidine (Fapy) DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and endonuclease III (endo III), bacteriophage T4 endonuclease V (endo V), and rat polymerase beta (beta-pol)) for their abilities to (i) excise dRP from preincised AP DNA and (ii) incise AP DNA. Although exo I and RecJ exhibited robust 3' to 5' and 5' to 3' exonucleolytic activities, respectively, on appropriate substrates, they failed to demonstrate detectable dRPase activity. All four AP lyases possessed both dRPase and traditional AP lyase activities, albeit to varying degrees. Moreover, as best illustrated with Fpg, AP lyase enzymes could be trapped on both preincised and unincised AP DNA using NaBH(4) as the reducing agent. These results further support the assertion that the catalytic mechanism of the AP lyases, the beta-elimination reaction, does proceed through an imine enzyme-DNA intermediate and that the active site residues responsible for dRP release must contain primary amines. Further, these data indicate a biological significance for the beta-elimination reaction of DNA glycosylase/AP lyases in that they, in concert with hydrolytic AP endonucleases, can create appropriate gapped substrates for short patch base excision repair (BER) synthesis to occur efficiently.

Abstract
The ability of a novel class of hybrid polar compounds (HPCs) to induce differentiation and consequent cessation of proliferation of transformed cells has led to their development as potential chemotherapeutic agents in the treatment of cancer. Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is a prototype of a family of hydroxamic acid based compounds (SAHA-like HPCs) that can, at micromolar concentrations, induce a variety of transformed cell lines to differentiate. The mechanism of action of the HPCs is not entirely understood. Searching for a cellular target of the SAHA-like HPCs, we synthesized a photoaffinity labeling reagent structurally based on SAHA, and probed for SAHA-binding proteins in murine erythroleukemia (MEL) cells. Photoaffinity labeling in cell free extracts identified a 32-kDa protein (p32) that was specifically labeled by the photoaffinity reagent. Cell fractionation assays localized p32 to the P100 fraction. p32 was partially purified and identified by mass spectrometry as the 40 S ribosomal protein S3. Expression of epitope-tagged S3 in bacterial lysates followed by photoaffinity labeling confirmed its specific labeling. Identification of a cytodifferentiation agent target may shed light on the mechanism by which the SAHA-like HPCs exert their antitumor effects.

Abstract
Down-regulation of the Drosophila ribosomal protein S21 gene (rpS21) causes a dominant weak Minute phenotype and recessively produces massive hyperplasia of the hematopoietic organs and moderate overgrowth of the imaginal discs during larval development. Here, we show that the S21 protein (RpS21) is bound to native 40S ribosomal subunits in a salt-labile association and is absent from polysomes, indicating that it acts as a translation initiation factor rather than as a core ribosomal protein. RpS21 can interact strongly with P40, a ribosomal peripheral protein encoded by the stubarista (sta) gene. Genetic studies reveal that P40 underexpression drastically enhances imaginal disc overgrowth in rpS21-deficient larvae, whereas viable combinations between rpS21 and sta affect the morphology of bristles, antennae, and aristae. These data demonstrate a strong interaction between components of the translation machinery and showed that their underexpression impairs the control of cell proliferation in both hematopoietic organs and imaginal discs.

Abstract
DNA polymerase beta (beta-pol) cleaves the sugar-phosphate bond 3' to an intact apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site (i.e. AP lyase activity). The same bond is cleaved even if the AP site has been previously 5'-incised by AP endonuclease, resulting in a 5' 2-deoxyribose 5-phosphate (i.e. dRP lyase activity). We characterized these lyase reactions by steady-state kinetics with the amino-terminal 8-kDa domain of beta-pol and with the entire 39-kDa polymerase. Steady-state kinetic analyses show that the Michaelis constants for both the dRP and AP lyase activities of beta-pol are similar. However, kcat is approximately 200-fold lower for the AP lyase activity on an intact AP site than for an AP endonuclease-preincised site. The 8-kDa domain was also less efficient with an intact AP site than on a preincised site. The full-length enzyme and the 8-kDa domain efficiently remove the 5' dRP from a preincised AP site in the absence of Mg2+, and the pH profiles of beta-pol and 8-kDa domain dRP lyase catalytic efficiency exhibit a broad alkaline pH optimum. An inhibitory effect of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate on the dRP lyase activity is consistent with involvement of a primary amine (Lys72) as the Schiff base nucleophile during lyase chemistry.

Abstract
The bacteria Escherichia coli contains several exonucleases acting on both double- and single-stranded DNA and in both a 5'-->3' and 3'-->5' direction. These enzymes are involved in replicative, repair and recombination functions. We have identified a new exonuclease found in E.coli, termed exonuclease IX, that acts preferentially on single-stranded DNA as a 3'-->5' exonuclease and also functions as a 3'-phosphodiesterase on DNA containing 3'-incised apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites to remove the product trans -4-hydroxy-2-pentenal 5-phosphate. The enzyme showed essentially no activity as a deoxyribophosphodiesterase acting on 5'-incised AP sites. The activity was isolated as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein from a sequence of the E.coli genome that was 60% identical to a 260 bp region of the small fragment of the DNA polymerase I gene. The protein has a molecular weight of 28 kDa and is free of AP endonuclease and phosphatase activities. Exonuclease IX is expressed in E.coli , as demonstrated by reverse transcription-PCR, and it may function in the DNA base excision repair and other pathways.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage has been implicated in mutagenesis, carcinogenesis and aging. Endogenous cellular processes such as aerobic metabolism generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) that interact with DNA to form dozens of DNA lesions. If unrepaired, these lesions can exert a number of deleterious effects including the induction of mutations. In an effort to understand the genetic consequences of cellular oxidative damage, many laboratories have determined the patterns of mutations generated by the interaction of ROS with DNA. Compilation of these mutational spectra has revealed that GC-->AT transitions and GC-->TA transversions are the most commonly observed mutations resulting from oxidative damage to DNA. Since mutational spectra convey only the end result of a complex cascade of events, which includes formation of multiple adducts, repair processing, and polymerase errors, it is difficult if not impossible to assess the mutational specificity of individual DNA lesions directly from these spectra. This problem is especially complicated in the case of oxidative DNA damage owing to the multiplicity of lesions formed by a single damaging agent. The task of assigning specific features of mutational spectra to individual DNA lesions has been made possible with the advent of a technology to analyze the mutational properties of single defined adducts, in vitro and in vivo. At the same time, parallel progress in the discovery and cloning of repair enzymes has advanced understanding of the biochemical mechanisms by which cells excise DNA damage. This combination of tools has brought our understanding of DNA lesions to a new level of sophistication. In this review, we summarize the known properties of individual oxidative lesions in terms of their structure, mutagenicity and repairability.

Abstract
The DNA base excision repair pathway is responsible for removal of oxidative and endogenous DNA base damage in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. This pathway involves formation of an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site in the DNA, which is further processed to restore the integrity of the DNA. In Escherichia coli it has been suggested that the major mode of repair involves replacement of a single nucleotide at the AP site, based on repair synthesis studies using oligonucleotide substrates containing a unique uracil base. The mechanism of the post-incision steps of the bacterial base excision repair pathway was examined using a DNA plasmid substrate containing a single U:G base pair. Repair synthesis carried out by repair-proficient ung, recJ and xon E.coli cell extracts was analyzed by restriction endonuclease cleavage of the DNA containing the uracil lesion. It was found that replacement of the uracil base was always accompanied by replacement of several nucleotides ( approximately 15) 3' of the uracil and this process was absolutely dependent on initial removal of the uracil base by the action of uracil-DNA glycosylase. In contrast to findings with oligonucleotide substrates, replacement of just a single nucleotide at the lesion site was not detected. These results suggest that repair patch length may be substrate dependent and a re-evaluation of the post-incision steps of base excision repair is suggested.

Abstract
We recently demonstrated that Drosophila ribosomal protein S3 specifically cleaved duplex oligodeoxynucleotides at sites of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoGua), presumably due to S3 protein possessing an N-glycosylase activity that is associated with its known apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) lyase activity. Here we show, using DNA substrates prepared by gamma-irradiation under N2O and analyzed by gas chromatography/isotope-dilution mass spectrometry, that S3 protein efficiently liberates 8-oxoGua as a free base from the damaged DNA substrate. Of the 15 additional modified bases present in the DNA substrate, the only other one acted on by S3 protein was 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyGua). Specificity constants measured for the removal of 8-oxoGua and FapyGua indicate that S3 protein has a similar preference for both of these modified purines. Having established that S3 protein contains an N-glycosylase activity, we next examined the repair of duplex oligonucleotides containing 8-oxoGua (8-oxoGua-37-mer) positioned opposite Cyt, Gua, Thy, or Ade. Significant cleavage of the 8-oxoGua-37-mer was only detected for an opposing Cyt. Moreover, we show that an imino covalent enzyme-substrate intermediate is formed between S3 protein and 8-oxoGua-37-mer, a result similar to other DNA repair enzymes that catalyze N-glycosylase/AP lyase-type reactions at sites of DNA damage.

Abstract
The yeast OGG1 gene was recently cloned and shown to encode a protein that possesses N-glycosylase/AP lyase activities for the repair of oxidatively damaged DNA at sites of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoguanine). Similar activities have been identified for Escherichia coli formamidopyrimidine-DNA glycosylase (Fpg) and Drosophila ribosomal protein S3. Both Fpg and S3 also contain a deoxyribophosphodiesterase (dRpase) activity that removes 2-deoxyribose-5-phosphate at an incised 5' apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites via a beta-elimination reaction. Drosophila S3 also has an additional activity that removes trans-4-hydroxy-2-pentenal-5-phosphate at a 3' incised AP site by a Mg2+-dependent hydrolytic mechanism. In view of the substrate similarities between Ogg1, Fpg and S3 at the level of base excision repair, we examined whether Ogg1 also contains dRpase activities. A glutathione S-transferase fusion protein of Ogg1 was purified and subsequently found to efficiently remove sugar-phosphate residues at incised 5' AP sites. Activity was also detected for the Mg2+-dependent removal of trans -4-hydroxy-2-pentenal-5-phosphate at 3' incised AP sites and from intact AP sites. Previous studies have shown that DNA repair proteins that possess AP lyase activity leave an inefficient DNA terminus for subsequent DNA synthesis steps associated with base excision repair. However, the results presented here suggest that in the presence of MgCl2, Ogg1 can efficiently process 8-oxoguanine so as to leave a one nucleotide gap that can be readily filled in by a DNA polymerase, and importantly, does not therefore require additional enzymes to process trans -4-hydroxy-2-pentenal-5-phosphate left at a 3' terminus created by a beta-elimination catalyst.
