Abstract
Fishing communities living near gold mining areas are at increased risk of mercury (Hg) exposure via bioaccumulation of methylmercury (MeHg) in fish. This exposure has been linked to health effects that may be triggered by genotoxic events. Genetic polymorphisms play a role in the risk associated with Hg exposure. This study evaluated the effect of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in metabolic and DNA repair genes on genetic instability and total hair Hg (T-Hg) levels in 78 individuals from "La Mojana" in northern Colombia and 34 individuals from a reference area. Genetic instability was assessed by the frequency of micronuclei (MNBN), nuclear buds (NBUDS), and nucleoplasmic bridges (NPB). We used a Poisson regression to assess the influence of SNPs on T-Hg levels and genetic instability, and a Bayesian regression to examine the interaction between Hg detoxification and DNA repair. Among exposed individuals, carriers of XRCC1Arg399Gln had a significantly higher frequency of MNBN. Conversely, the XRCC1Arg194Trp and OGG1Ser326Cys polymorphisms were associated with lower frequencies of MNBN. XRCC1Arg399Gln, XRCC1Arg280His, and GSTM1Null carriers showed lower NPB frequencies. Our results also indicated that individuals with the GSTM1Nulland GSTT1null polymorphisms had a 1.6-fold risk for higher T-Hg levels. The Bayesian model showed increased MNBN frequencies in carriers of the GSTM1Null polymorphism in combination with XRCC1Arg399Gln and increased NBUDS frequencies in the GSTM1Null carriers with the XRCC3Thr241Met and OGG1Ser326Cys alleles. The GSTM1+ variant was found to be a protective factor in individuals carrying OGG1Ser326Cys (MNBN) and XRCC1Arg280His (NPB); the GSTT1+ polymorphism combined with XRCCArg194Trp also modulated lower MNBN frequencies, while GSTT1+ carriers with the XRCC1Arg399Gln allele showed lower NPB frequencies. Consistent with GSTM1, GSTT1Null carriers with XRCC3Thr241Met showed increased NBUDS frequency. With the rise of gold mining activities, these approaches are vital to identify and safeguard populations vulnerable to Hg's toxic effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a complication of diabetes mellitus (DM) that increases the risk of morbidity and mortality by disrupting cardiac innervation. Recent evidence suggests that CAN may manifest even before the onset of DM, with prediabetes and metabolic syndrome potentially serving as precursors. This study aims to identify genetic markers associated with CAN development in the Kazakh population by investigating the SNPs of specific genes. MATERIALS AND METHODS A case-control study involved 82 patients with CAN (cases) and 100 patients without CAN (controls). A total of 182 individuals of Kazakh nationality were enrolled from a hospital affiliated with the RSE "Medical Center Hospital of the President's Affairs Administration of the Republic of Kazakhstan". 7 SNPs of genes FTO, PPARG, SNCA, XRCC1, FLACC1/CASP8 were studied. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square methods, calculation of odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), and logistic regression in SPSS 26.0. RESULTS Among the SNCA gene polymorphisms, rs2737029 was significantly associated with CAN, almost doubling the risk of CAN (OR 2.03(1.09-3.77), p = 0.03). However, no statistically significant association with CAN was detected with the rs2736990 of the SNCA gene (OR 1.00 CI (0.63-1.59), p = 0.99). rs12149832 of the FTO gene increased the risk of CAN threefold (OR 3.22(1.04-9.95), p = 0.04), while rs1801282 of the PPARG gene and rs13016963 of the FLACC1 gene increased the risk twofold (OR 2.56(1.19-5.49), p = 0.02) and (OR 2.34(1.00-5.46), p = 0.05) respectively. rs1108775 and rs1799782 of the XRCC1 gene were associated with reduced chances of developing CAN both before and after adjustment (OR 0.24, CI (0.09-0.68), p = 0.007, and OR 0.43, CI (0.22-0.84), p = 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSION The study suggests that rs2737029 (SNCA gene), rs12149832 (FTO gene), rs1801282 (PPARG gene), and rs13016963 (FLACC1 gene) may be predisposing factors for CAN development. Additionally, SNPs rs1108775 and rs1799782 (XRCC1 gene) may confer resistance to CAN. Only one polymorphism rs2736990 of the SNCA gene was not associated with CAN.

Abstract
XRCC1 is involved in repair of single-strand breaks generated by mutagenic exposure. Polymorphisms within XRCC1 affect its ability to efficiently repair DNA damage. Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons or PAHs are genotoxic compounds which form bulky DNA adducts that are linked with infertility. Few reports suggest combined role of XRCC1 polymorphisms and PAHs in infertility. Present study investigates association of three XRCC1 polymorphisms (p.Arg194Trp, p.Arg280His, p.Arg399Gln) with male and female infertility in a North-West Indian population using case-control approach. Additionally, in silico approach has been used to predict whether XRCC1 polymorphisms effect interaction of XRCC1 with different PAHs. For case-control study, XRCC1 polymorphisms were screened in peripheral blood samples of age- and gender-matched 201 infertile cases (♂-100, ♀-101) and 201 fertile controls (♂-100, ♀-101) using PCR-RFLP method. For in silico study, AutoDock v4.2.6 was used for molecular docking of B[a]P, BPDE-I, ( ±)-anti-BPDE, DB[a,l]P, 1-N, 2-N, 1-OHP, 2-OHF with XRCC1 and assess effect of XRCC1 polymorphisms on their interaction. In case-control study, statistical analysis showed association of XRCC1 p.Arg280His GA genotype (p = 0.027), A allele (p = 0.019) with reduced risk of male infertility. XRCC1 p.Arg399Gln AA genotype (p = 0.021), A allele (p = 0.014) were associated with reduced risk for female primary infertility. XRCC1 p.Arg194Trp T allele was associated with increased risk for female infertility (p = 0.035). In silico analysis showed XRCC1-PAH interaction with non-significant effect of XRCC1 polymorphisms on predicted binding. Therefore, present study concludes that XRCC1 polymorphism-modified risk for male and female infertility in North-West Indians without significant effect on predicted XRCC1-PAH interactions. This is the first report on XRCC1 in female infertility.

J Mol Biol 2024; 436:168410.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) requires a coordination from gap filling by DNA polymerase (pol) β to subsequent nick sealing by DNA ligase (LIG) IIIα at downstream steps of the repair pathway. X-ray cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1), a non-enzymatic scaffolding protein, forms repair complexes with polβ and LIGIIIα. Yet, the impact of the polβ mutations that affect XRCC1 interaction and protein stability on the repair pathway coordination during nick sealing by LIGIIIα remains unknown. Our results show that the polβ colon cancer-associated variant T304 exhibits a reduced interaction with XRCC1 and the mutations in the interaction interface of V303 loop (L301R/V303R/V306R) and at the lysine residues (K206A/K244A) that prevent ubiquitin-mediated degradation of the protein exhibit a diminished repair protein complex formation with XRCC1. Furthermore, we demonstrate no significant effect on gap and nick DNA binding affinity of wild-type polβ by these mutations. Finally, our results reveal that XRCC1 leads to an efficient channeling of nick repair products after nucleotide incorporation by polβ variants to LIGIIIα, which is compromised by the L301R/V303R/V306R and K206A/K244A mutations. Overall, our findings provide insight into how the mutations in the polβ/XRCC1 interface and the regions affecting protein stability could dictate accurate BER pathway coordination at the downstream steps involving nick sealing by LIGIIIα.

Abstract
The intracellular ATP-ribosyltransferases PARP1 and PARP2, contribute to DNA base excision repair (BER) and DNA demethylation and have been implicated in epigenetic programming in early mammalian development. Recently, proteomic analyses identified BER proteins to be covalently poly-ADP-ribosylated by PARPs. The role of this posttranslational modification in the BER process is unknown. Here, we show that PARP1 senses AP-sites and SSBs generated during TET-TDG mediated active DNA demethylation and covalently attaches PAR to each BER protein engaged. Covalent PARylation dissociates BER proteins from DNA, which accelerates the completion of the repair process. Consistently, inhibition of PARylation in mESC resulted both in reduced locus-specific TET-TDG-targeted DNA demethylation, and in reduced general repair of random DNA damage. Our findings establish a critical function of covalent protein PARylation in coordinating molecular processes associated with dynamic DNA methylation.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) Polymerase 1 (PARP-1), also known as ADP-ribosyl transferase with diphtheria toxin homology 1 (ARTD-1), is a critical player in DNA damage repair, during which it catalyzes the ADP ribosylation of self and target enzymes. While the nuclear localization of PARP-1 has been well established, recent studies also suggest its mitochondrial localization. In this review, we summarize the differences between mitochondrial and nuclear Base Excision Repair (BER) pathways, the involvement of PARP-1 in mitochondrial and nuclear BER, and its functional interplay with other BER enzymes.

Abstract
DNA-protein cross-links remain the least-studied type of DNA damage. Recently, their repair was shown to involve proteolysis; however, the fate of the peptide remnant attached to DNA is unclear. Particularly, peptide cross-links could interfere with DNA polymerases. Apurinuic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites, abundant and spontaneously arising DNA lesions, readily form cross-links with proteins. Their degradation products (AP site-peptide cross-links, APPXLs) are non-instructive and should be even more problematic for polymerases. Here, we address the ability of human DNA polymerases involved in DNA repair and translesion synthesis (POLβ, POLλ, POLη, POLκ and PrimPOL) to carry out synthesis on templates containing AP sites cross-linked to the N-terminus of a 10-mer peptide (APPXL-I) or to an internal lysine of a 23-mer peptide (APPXL-Y). Generally, APPXLs strongly blocked processive DNA synthesis. The blocking properties of APPXL-I were comparable with those of an AP site, while APPXL-Y constituted a much stronger obstruction. POLη and POLκ demonstrated the highest bypass ability. DNA polymerases mostly used dNTP-stabilized template misalignment to incorporate nucleotides when encountering an APPXL. We conclude that APPXLs are likely highly cytotoxic and mutagenic intermediates of AP site-protein cross-link repair and must be quickly eliminated before replication.

Abstract
Somatic hypermutation (SHM) is necessary for Ab diversification and involves error-prone DNA repair of activation-induced cytidine deaminase-induced lesions in germinal center (GC) B cells but can also cause genomic instability. GC B cells express low levels of the DNA repair protein apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonuclease (APE)1 and high levels of its homolog APE2. Reduced SHM in APE2-deficient mice suggests that APE2 promotes SHM, but these GC B cells also exhibit reduced proliferation that could impact mutation frequency. In this study, we test the hypothesis that APE2 promotes and APE1 suppresses SHM. We show how APE1/APE2 expression changes in primary murine spleen B cells during activation, impacting both SHM and class-switch recombination (CSR). High levels of both APE1 and APE2 early after activation promote CSR. However, after 2 d, APE1 levels decrease steadily with each cell division, even with repeated stimulation, whereas APE2 levels increase with each stimulation. When GC-level APE1/APE2 expression was engineered by reducing APE1 genetically (apex1+/-) and overexpressing APE2, bona fide activation-induced cytidine deaminase-dependent VDJH4 intron SHM became detectable in primary B cell cultures. The C terminus of APE2 that interacts with proliferating cell nuclear Ag promotes SHM and CSR, although its ATR-Chk1-interacting Zf-GRF domain is not required. However, APE2 does not increase mutations unless APE1 is reduced. Although APE1 promotes CSR, it suppresses SHM, suggesting that downregulation of APE1 in the GC is required for SHM. Genome-wide expression data compare GC and cultured B cells and new models depict how APE1 and APE2 expression and protein interactions change during B cell activation and affect the balance between accurate and error-prone repair during CSR and SHM.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is carried out by a series of proteins that function in a step-by-step process to identify, remove, and replace DNA damage. During BER, the DNA transitions through various intermediate states as it is processed by each DNA repair enzyme. Left unrepaired, these BER intermediates can transition into double-stranded DNA breaks and promote genome instability. Previous studies have proposed a short-lived complex consisting of the BER intermediate, the incoming enzyme, and the outgoing enzyme at each step of the BER pathway to protect the BER intermediate. The transfer of BER intermediates between enzymes, known as BER coordination or substrate channeling, remains poorly understood. Here, we utilize single-molecule total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy to investigate the mechanism of BER coordination between apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) and DNA polymerase β (Pol β). When preformed complexes of APE1 and the incised abasic site product (APE1 product and Pol β substrate) were subsequently bound by Pol β, the Pol β enzyme dissociated shortly after binding in most of the observations. In the events where Pol β binding was followed by APE1 dissociation during substrate channeling, Pol β remained bound for a longer period of time to allow disassociation of APE1. Our results indicate that transfer of the BER intermediate from APE1 to Pol β during BER is dependent on the dissociation kinetics of APE1 and the duration of the ternary complex on the incised abasic site.

Fluorescently labeled human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease APE1 reveals effects of DNA polymerase β on the APE1-DNA interaction. DNA Repair (Amst) 2023; 123:103450. [PMID: 36689867 DOI: 10.1016/j.dnarep.2023.103450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2022] [Revised: 12/26/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/15/2023]
Abstract
The base excision repair (BER) pathway involves sequential action of DNA glycosylases and apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) endonucleases to incise damaged DNA and prepare DNA termini for incorporation of a correct nucleotide by DNA polymerases. It has been suggested that the enzymatic steps in BER include recognition of a product-enzyme complex by the next enzyme in the pathway, resulting in the "passing-the-baton" model of transfer of DNA intermediates between enzymes. To verify this model, in this work, we aimed to create a suitable experimental system. We prepared APE1 site-specifically labeled with a fluorescent reporter that is sensitive to stages of APE1-DNA binding, of formation of the catalytic complex, and of subsequent dissociation of the enzyme-product complex. Interactions of the labeled APE1 with various model DNA substrates (containing an abasic site) of varied lengths revealed that the enzyme remains mostly in complex with the DNA product. By means of the fluorescently labeled APE1 in combination with a stopped-flow fluorescence assay, it was found that Polβ stimulates both i) APE1 binding to an abasic-site-containing DNA duplex with the formation of a catalytically competent complex and ii) the dissociation of APE1 from its product. These findings confirm DNA-mediated coordination of APE1 and Polβ activities and suggest that Polβ is the key trigger of the DNA transfer between the enzymes participating in initial steps of BER.

Abstract
APE1/Ref-1 (apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1, APE1 or APEX1; redox factor-1, Ref-1) is a dual-functional enzyme with crucial roles in DNA repair, reduction/oxidation (redox) signaling, and RNA processing and metabolism. The redox function of Ref-1 regulates several transcription factors, such as NF-κB, STAT3, HIF-1α, and others, which have been implicated in multiple human diseases, including ocular angiogenesis, inflammation, and multiple cancers. To better understand how APE1 influences these disease processes, we investigated the effects of APEX1 knockdown (KD) on gene expression in human retinal endothelial cells. This abolishes both DNA repair and redox signaling functions, as well as RNA interactions. Using RNA-seq analysis, we identified the crucial signaling pathways affected following APEX1 KD, with subsequent validation by qRT-PCR. Gene expression data revealed that multiple genes involved in DNA base excision repair, other DNA repair pathways, purine or pyrimidine metabolism signaling, and histidine/one carbon metabolism pathways were downregulated by APEX1 KD. This is in contrast with the alteration of pathways by APEX1 KD in human cancer lines, such as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, lung, HeLa, and malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors. These results highlight the unique role of APE1/Ref-1 and the clinical therapeutic potential of targeting APE1 and pathways regulated by APE1 in the eye. These findings provide novel avenues for ocular neovascularization treatment.

Abstract
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most aggressive type of cancer. Its current first-line postsurgery regimens are radiotherapy and temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy, both of which are DNA damage-inducing therapies but show very limited efficacy and a high risk of resistance. There is an urgent need to develop novel agents to sensitize GBM to DNA-damaging treatments. Here it is found that the triterpene compound stellettin B (STELB) greatly enhances the sensitivity of GBM to ionizing radiation and TMZ in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, STELB inhibits the expression of homologous recombination repair (HR) factors BRCA1/2 and RAD51 by promoting the degradation of PI3Kα through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway; and the induced HR deficiency then leads to augmented DNA damage and cell death. It is further demonstrated that STELB has the potential to rapidly penetrate the blood-brain barrier to exert anti-GBM effects in the brain, based on zebrafish and nude mouse orthotopic xenograft tumor models. The study provides strong evidence that STELB represents a promising drug candidate to improve GBM therapy in combination with DNA-damaging treatments.

Abstract
Cells experience increased genome instability through the course of disease development including cancer initiation and progression. Point mutations, insertion/deletions, translocations, and amplifications of both coding and noncoding regions all contribute to cancer phenotypes. Copy number variation (CNV), i.e., changes of the number of copies of nuclear DNA, occurs in the genome of even normal somatic cells. Studies to understand the effects of CNV on tumor development, especially aspects concerning tumor aggressiveness and the influence on outcomes of therapeutic modalities, have been reignited by the breakthrough technologies of the molecular genomics. This section discusses the significance of analyzing CNVs that cause simultaneous increase/decrease of clusters of genes, using the expression profile of XRCC1 with its neighbor genes LIG1, PNKP, and POLD1 as an example. Methods for CNV assay at the individual gene level on formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues using the NanoString nCounter technology will then be described.

Abstract
Apurinic apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a key enzyme of the Base Excision Repair (BER) pathway, which primarily manages oxidative lesions of DNA. Once the damaged base is removed, APE1 recognises the resulting abasic site and cleaves the phosphodiester backbone to allow for the correction by subsequent enzymes of the BER machinery. In spite of a wealth of information on APE1 structure and activity, its regulation mechanism still remains to be understood. Human APE1 consists of a globular catalytic domain preceded by a flexible N-terminal extension, which might be involved in the interaction with DNA. Moreover, the binding of the nuclear chaperone nucleophosmin (NPM1) to this region has been reported to impact APE1 catalysis. To evaluate intra- and inter-molecular conformational rearrangements upon DNA binding, incision, and interaction with NPM1, we used Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), a fluorescence spectroscopy technique sensitive to molecular distances. Our results suggest that the N-terminus approaches the DNA at the downstream side of the abasic site and enables the building of a predictive model of the full-length APE1/DNA complex. Furthermore, the spatial configuration of the N-terminal tail is sensitive to NPM1, which could be related to the regulation of APE1.

Abstract
The characteristics of the sleep drivers and the mechanisms through which sleep relieves the cellular homeostatic pressure are unclear. In flies, zebrafish, mice, and humans, DNA damage levels increase during wakefulness and decrease during sleep. Here, we show that 6 h of consolidated sleep is sufficient to reduce DNA damage in the zebrafish dorsal pallium. Induction of DNA damage by neuronal activity and mutagens triggered sleep and DNA repair. The activity of the DNA damage response (DDR) proteins Rad52 and Ku80 increased during sleep, and chromosome dynamics enhanced Rad52 activity. The activity of the DDR initiator poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (Parp1) increased following sleep deprivation. In both larva zebrafish and adult mice, Parp1 promoted sleep. Inhibition of Parp1 activity reduced sleep-dependent chromosome dynamics and repair. These results demonstrate that DNA damage is a homeostatic driver for sleep, and Parp1 pathways can sense this cellular pressure and facilitate sleep and repair activity.

Abstract
Humans are extensively exposed to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) daily via multiple pathways. Epidemiological studies have demonstrated that occupational exposure to PAHs increases the risk of lung cancer, but related studies in the general population are limited. Hence, we conducted a case-control study among the Chinese general population to investigate the associations between PAHs exposure and lung cancer risk and analyze the modifications of genetic polymorphisms in DNA repair genes. In this study, we enrolled 122 lung cancer cases and 244 healthy controls in Wuhan, China. Urinary PAHs metabolites were determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and rs25487 in X-ray repair cross-complementation 1 (XRCC1) gene was genotyped by the Agena Bioscience MassARRAY System. Then, multivariable logistic regression models were performed to estimate the potential associations. We found that urinary hydroxynaphthalene (OH-Nap), hydroxyphenanthrene (OH-Phe) and the sum of hydroxy PAHs (∑OH-PAHs) levels were significantly higher in lung cancer cases than those in controls. After adjusting for gender, age, BMI, smoking status, smoking pack-years, drinking status and family history, urinary ∑OH-Nap and ∑OH-Phe levels were positively associated with lung cancer risk, with dose-response relationships. Compared with those in the lowest tertiles, individuals in the highest tertiles of ∑OH-Nap and ∑OH-Phe had a 2.13-fold (95% CI: 1.10, 4.09) and 2.45-fold (95% CI: 1.23, 4.87) increased risk of lung cancer, respectively. Effects of gender, age, smoking status and smoking pack-years on the associations of PAHs exposure with lung cancer risk were shown in the subgroup analysis. Furthermore, associations of urinary ∑OH-Nap and ∑OH-PAHs levels with lung cancer risk were modified by XRCC1 rs25487 (Pinteraction ≤ 0.025), and were more pronounced in wild-types of rs25487. These findings suggest that environmental exposure to naphthalene and phenanthrene is associated with increased lung cancer risk, and polymorphism of XRCC1 rs25487 might modify the naphthalene exposure-related lung cancer effect.

Abstract
The nervous system is vulnerable to genomic instability and mutations in DNA damage response factors lead to numerous developmental and progressive neurological disorders. Despite this, the sources and mechanisms of DNA damage that are most relevant to the development of neuronal dysfunction are poorly understood. The identification of primarily neurological abnormalities in patients with mutations in TDP1 and TDP2 suggest that topoisomerase-mediated DNA damage could be an important underlying source of neuronal dysfunction. Here we review the potential sources of topoisomerase-induced DNA damage in neurons, describe the cellular mechanisms that have evolved to repair such damage, and discuss the importance of these repair mechanisms for preventing neurological disorders.

Abstract
Radiotherapy is an important method for the treatment of malignant tumors. It can directly or indirectly lead to the formation of free radicals and DNA damage, resulting in a series of biological effects, including tumor cell death and normal tissue damage. These radiation effects are typically accompanied by the abnormal expression of sirtuin 1 (Sirt1), which deacetylates histones and non-histones. These Sirt1 substrates, including transcription factors and some catalytic enzymes, play a crucial role in anti-oxidative stress, DNA damage repair, autophagy regulation, anti-senescence, and apoptosis, which are closely related to triggering cell defense and survival in radiation-induced damage. In this article, we review the mechanisms underlying cellular responses to ionizing radiation and the role of Sirt1 in the process, with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for protection against radiation by Sirt1 as well as novel targets for developing radioprotective agents.

Abstract
Cellular DNA damage response (DDR) is an extensive signaling network that orchestrates DNA damage recognition, repair and avoidance, cell cycle progression and cell death. DDR alteration is a hallmark of cancer, with the deficiency in one DDR capability often compensated by a dependency on alternative pathways endowing cancer cells with survival and growth advantage. Targeting these DDR pathways has provided multiple opportunities for the development of cancer therapies. Traditional drug discovery has mainly focused on catalytic inhibitors that block enzyme active sites, which limits the number of potential drug targets within the DDR pathways. This review article describes the emerging approach to the development of cancer therapeutics targeting essential protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in the DDR network. The overall strategy for the structure-based design of small molecule PPI inhibitors is discussed, followed by an overview of the major DNA damage sensing, DNA repair, and DNA damage tolerance pathways with a specific focus on PPI targets for anti-cancer drug design. The existing small molecule inhibitors of DDR PPIs are summarized that selectively kill cancer cells and/or sensitize cancers to front-line genotoxic therapies, and a range of new PPI targets are proposed that may lead to the development of novel chemotherapeutics.

J Biol Chem 2021; 297:100921. [PMID: 34181949 PMCID: PMC8318918 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2021.100921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/19/2021] [Revised: 06/10/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Tyrosyl DNA phosphodiesterase 1 (TDP1) and DNA Ligase IIIα (LigIIIα) are key enzymes in single-strand break (SSB) repair. TDP1 removes 3'-tyrosine residues remaining after degradation of DNA topoisomerase (TOP) 1 cleavage complexes trapped by either DNA lesions or TOP1 inhibitors. It is not known how TDP1 is linked to subsequent processing and LigIIIα-catalyzed joining of the SSB. Here we define a direct interaction between the TDP1 catalytic domain and the LigIII DNA-binding domain (DBD) regulated by conformational changes in the unstructured TDP1 N-terminal region induced by phosphorylation and/or alterations in amino acid sequence. Full-length and N-terminally truncated TDP1 are more effective at correcting SSB repair defects in TDP1 null cells compared with full-length TDP1 with amino acid substitutions of an N-terminal serine residue phosphorylated in response to DNA damage. TDP1 forms a stable complex with LigIII170-755, as well as full-length LigIIIα alone or in complex with the DNA repair scaffold protein XRCC1. Small-angle X-ray scattering and negative stain electron microscopy combined with mapping of the interacting regions identified a TDP1/LigIIIα compact dimer of heterodimers in which the two LigIII catalytic cores are positioned in the center, whereas the two TDP1 molecules are located at the edges of the core complex flanked by highly flexible regions that can interact with other repair proteins and SSBs. As TDP1and LigIIIα together repair adducts caused by TOP1 cancer chemotherapy inhibitors, the defined interaction architecture and regulation of this enzyme complex provide insights into a key repair pathway in nonmalignant and cancer cells.

The scaffold protein XRCC1 stabilizes the formation of polβ/gap DNA and ligase IIIα/nick DNA complexes in base excision repair. J Biol Chem 2021; 297:101025.

Abstract
The base excision repair (BER) pathway involves gap filling by DNA polymerase (pol) β and subsequent nick sealing by ligase IIIα. X-ray cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1), a nonenzymatic scaffold protein, assembles multiprotein complexes, although the mechanism by which XRCC1 orchestrates the final steps of coordinated BER remains incompletely defined. Here, using a combination of biochemical and biophysical approaches, we revealed that the polβ/XRCC1 complex increases the processivity of BER reactions after correct nucleotide insertion into gaps in DNA and enhances the handoff of nicked repair products to the final ligation step. Moreover, the mutagenic ligation of nicked repair intermediate following polβ 8-oxodGTP insertion is enhanced in the presence of XRCC1. Our results demonstrated a stabilizing effect of XRCC1 on the formation of polβ/dNTP/gap DNA and ligase IIIα/ATP/nick DNA catalytic ternary complexes. Real-time monitoring of protein–protein interactions and DNA-binding kinetics showed stronger binding of XRCC1 to polβ than to ligase IIIα or aprataxin, and higher affinity for nick DNA with undamaged or damaged ends than for one nucleotide gap repair intermediate. Finally, we demonstrated slight differences in stable polβ/XRCC1 complex formation, polβ and ligase IIIα protein interaction kinetics, and handoff process as a result of cancer-associated (P161L, R194W, R280H, R399Q, Y576S) and cerebellar ataxia-related (K431N) XRCC1 variants. Overall, our findings provide novel insights into the coordinating role of XRCC1 and the effect of its disease-associated variants on substrate-product channeling in multiprotein/DNA complexes for efficient BER.

Abstract
Infertility is one of the main social and health problems among young couples. Although a noticeable ratio of infertilities are asymptomatic, about half of the cases are observed among males. Various environmental factors such as life style, dietary patterns, and pathogens are associated with male infertility. Mutations and chromosomal abnormalities are also the most important genetic risk factors of male infertility. Similar to other populations, there is a dramatically rising trend of male infertility among Iranian. Regarding the high ratio of asymptomatic cases, it is required to clarify the molecular biology and cellular processes involved in male infertility in this population to suggest an efficient panel of diagnostic markers. In this review, we have summarized all of the cellular and molecular processes which have been reported among Iranian infertile males to clarify the molecular biology of male infertility in this population. It was observed that the stress response, cellular detoxification, and DNA repair processes were the most common aberrant cellular mechanisms among Iranian infertile males. This review paves the way of introducing a population-based diagnostic panel of genetic markers among Iranian infertile males.

Abstract
APE1 (DNA (apurinic/apyrimidinic site) endonuclease 1) is a key enzyme of one of the major DNA repair routes, the BER (base excision repair) pathway. APE1 fulfils additional functions, acting as a redox regulator of transcription factors and taking part in RNA metabolism. The mechanisms regulating APE1 are still being deciphered. Structurally, human APE1 consists of a well-characterized globular catalytic domain responsible for its endonuclease activity, preceded by a conformationally flexible N-terminal extension, acquired along evolution. This N-terminal tail appears to play a prominent role in the modulation of APE1 and probably in BER coordination. Thus, it is primarily involved in mediating APE1 localization, post-translational modifications, and protein–protein interactions, with all three factors jointly contributing to regulate the enzyme. In this review, recent insights on the regulatory role of the N-terminal region in several aspects of APE1 function are covered. In particular, interaction of this region with nucleophosmin (NPM1) might modulate certain APE1 activities, representing a paradigmatic example of the interconnection between various regulatory factors.

Abstract
With the rapid development of economic globalization and industrialization, lead (Pb), one of the most important heavy metals, has been used widely since antiquity for several purposes. In fact, its impact on the health of animals and humans is a significant public health risk all the time. Pb could be accumulated in the body for a long time, causing irreversible damage to the health of animals and humans, including hostile reproductive health. Up to now, although there are some published studies on impeding the normal development of ovarian folliculogenesis of female resulted from Pb exposure, with the damage of structure in uterine tissue, the imbalance of female menstrual status, and the change of hormone levels. The potential mechanism of Pb exposure on female reproduction system, however, remains enigmatic. How to alleviate the damage of Pb toxicity to reproductive function of female has become an urgent problem. Therefore, the aim of the present review is to discuss the information on the growth and development of ovarian follicle of mammalians and the potential toxic mechanism when exposed to Pb. The literatures were collected via various websites and consulting books, reports, etc. In summary, Pb impair folliculogenesis of mammalians, which may be related to the interference to the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), in turn impairs various molecules including proteins, lipids and DNA, as well as the disruption of the antioxidant defense system, ionic equilibrium and endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis.

Abstract
Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a segmental premature aging syndrome caused primarily by defects in the CSA or CSB genes. In addition to premature aging, CS patients typically exhibit microcephaly, progressive mental and sensorial retardation and cutaneous photosensitivity. Defects in the CSB gene were initially thought to primarily impair transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER), predicting a relatively consistent phenotype among CS patients. In contrast, the phenotypes of CS patients are pleiotropic and variable. The latter is consistent with recent work that implicates CSB in multiple cellular systems and pathways, including DNA base excision repair, interstrand cross-link repair, transcription, chromatin remodeling, RNAPII processing, nucleolin regulation, rDNA transcription, redox homeostasis, and mitochondrial function. The discovery of additional functions for CSB could potentially explain the many clinical phenotypes of CSB patients. This review focuses on the diverse roles played by CSB in cellular pathways that enhance genome stability, providing insight into the molecular features of this complex premature aging disease.

Abstract
The XRCC1–DNA ligase IIIα complex (XL) is critical for DNA single-strand break repair, a key target for PARP inhibitors in cancer cells deficient in homologous recombination. Here, we combined biophysical approaches to gain insights into the shape and conformational flexibility of the XL as well as XRCC1 and DNA ligase IIIα (LigIIIα) alone. Structurally-guided mutational analyses based on the crystal structure of the human BRCT–BRCT heterodimer identified the network of salt bridges that together with the N-terminal extension of the XRCC1 C-terminal BRCT domain constitute the XL molecular interface. Coupling size exclusion chromatography with small angle X-ray scattering and multiangle light scattering (SEC-SAXS–MALS), we determined that the XL is more compact than either XRCC1 or LigIIIα, both of which form transient homodimers and are highly disordered. The reduced disorder and flexibility allowed us to build models of XL particles visualized by negative stain electron microscopy that predict close spatial organization between the LigIIIα catalytic core and both BRCT domains of XRCC1. Together our results identify an atypical BRCT–BRCT interaction as the stable nucleating core of the XL that links the flexible nick sensing and catalytic domains of LigIIIα to other protein partners of the flexible XRCC1 scaffold.

Abstract
Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and its metabolites function as critical regulators to maintain physiologic processes, enabling the plastic cells to adapt to environmental changes including nutrient perturbation, genotoxic factors, circadian disorder, infection, inflammation and xenobiotics. These effects are mainly achieved by the driving effect of NAD+ on metabolic pathways as enzyme cofactors transferring hydrogen in oxidation-reduction reactions. Besides, multiple NAD+-dependent enzymes are involved in physiology either by post-synthesis chemical modification of DNA, RNA and proteins, or releasing second messenger cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR) and NAADP+. Prolonged disequilibrium of NAD+ metabolism disturbs the physiological functions, resulting in diseases including metabolic diseases, cancer, aging and neurodegeneration disorder. In this review, we summarize recent advances in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of NAD+-regulated physiological responses to stresses, the contribution of NAD+ deficiency to various diseases via manipulating cellular communication networks and the potential new avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Modulation of the Apurinic/Apyrimidinic Endonuclease Activity of Human APE1 and of Its Natural Polymorphic Variants by Base Excision Repair Proteins. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21197147. [PMID: 32998246 PMCID: PMC7583023 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21197147] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/08/2020] [Revised: 09/24/2020] [Accepted: 09/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is known to be a critical player of the base excision repair (BER) pathway. In general, BER involves consecutive actions of DNA glycosylases, AP endonucleases, DNA polymerases, and DNA ligases. It is known that these proteins interact with APE1 either at upstream or downstream steps of BER. Therefore, we may propose that even a minor disturbance of protein–protein interactions on the DNA template reduces coordination and repair efficiency. Here, the ability of various human DNA repair enzymes (such as DNA glycosylases OGG1, UNG2, and AAG; DNA polymerase Polβ; or accessory proteins XRCC1 and PCNA) to influence the activity of wild-type (WT) APE1 and its seven natural polymorphic variants (R221C, N222H, R237A, G241R, M270T, R274Q, and P311S) was tested. Förster resonance energy transfer–based kinetic analysis of abasic site cleavage in a model DNA substrate was conducted to detect the effects of interacting proteins on the activity of WT APE1 and its single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) variants. The results revealed that WT APE1 activity was stimulated by almost all tested DNA repair proteins. For the SNP variants, the matters were more complicated. Analysis of two SNP variants, R237A and G241R, suggested that a positive charge in this area of the APE1 surface impairs the protein–protein interactions. In contrast, variant R221C (where the affected residue is located near the DNA-binding site) showed permanently lower activation relative to WT APE1, whereas neighboring SNP N222H did not cause a noticeable difference as compared to WT APE1. Buried substitution P311S had an inconsistent effect, whereas each substitution at the DNA-binding site, M270T and R274Q, resulted in the lowest stimulation by BER proteins. Protein–protein molecular docking was performed between repair proteins to identify amino acid residues involved in their interactions. The data uncovered differences in the effects of BER proteins on APE1, indicating an important role of protein–protein interactions in the coordination of the repair pathway.

Targeting Base Excision Repair in Cancer: NQO1-Bioactivatable Drugs Improve Tumor Selectivity and Reduce Treatment Toxicity Through Radiosensitization of Human Cancer. Front Oncol 2020; 10:1575.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation (IR) creates lethal DNA damage that can effectively kill tumor cells. However, the high dose required for a therapeutic outcome also damages healthy tissue. Thus, a therapeutic strategy with predictive biomarkers to enhance the beneficial effects of IR allowing a dose reduction without losing efficacy is highly desirable. NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) is overexpressed in the majority of recalcitrant solid tumors in comparison with normal tissue. Studies have shown that NQO1 can bioactivate certain quinone molecules (e.g., ortho-naphthoquinone and β-lapachone) to induce a futile redox cycle leading to the formation of oxidative DNA damage, hyperactivation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), and catastrophic depletion of NAD+ and ATP, which culminates in cellular lethality via NAD+-Keresis. However, NQO1-bioactivatable drugs induce methemoglobinemia and hemolytic anemia at high doses. To circumvent this, NQO1-bioactivatable agents have been shown to synergize with PARP1 inhibitors, pyrimidine radiosensitizers, and IR. This therapeutic strategy allows for a reduction in the dose of the combined agents to decrease unwanted side effects by increasing tumor selectivity. In this review, we discuss the mechanisms of radiosensitization between NQO1-bioactivatable drugs and IR with a focus on the involvement of base excision repair (BER). This combination therapeutic strategy presents a unique tumor-selective and minimally toxic approach for targeting solid tumors that overexpress NQO1.

Displacement of Slow-Turnover DNA Glycosylases by Molecular Traffic on DNA. Genes (Basel) 2020; 11:genes11080866.

Abstract
In the base excision repair pathway, the initiating enzymes, DNA glycosylases, remove damaged bases and form long-living complexes with the abasic DNA product, but can be displaced by AP endonucleases. However, many nuclear proteins can move along DNA, either actively (such as DNA or RNA polymerases) or by passive one-dimensional diffusion. In most cases, it is not clear whether this movement is disturbed by other bound proteins or how collisions with moving proteins affect the bound proteins, including DNA glycosylases. We have used a two-substrate system to study the displacement of human OGG1 and NEIL1 DNA glycosylases by DNA polymerases in both elongation and diffusion mode and by D4, a passively diffusing subunit of a viral DNA polymerase. The OGG1–DNA product complex was disrupted by DNA polymerase β (POLβ) in both elongation and diffusion mode, Klenow fragment (KF) in the elongation mode and by D4. NEIL1, which has a shorter half-life on DNA, was displaced more efficiently. Hence, both possibly specific interactions with POLβ and nonspecific collisions (KF, D4) can displace DNA glycosylases from DNA. The protein movement along DNA was blocked by very tightly bound Cas9 RNA-targeted nuclease, providing an upper limit on the efficiency of obstacle clearance.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is a co-ordinated DNA repair pathway that recognises and repairs chemically modified bases and DNA single strand breaks. It is essential for the maintenance of genome integrity and thus in the prevention of the development of human diseases, including premature ageing, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. Within the cell, DNA is usually packaged with histone proteins to form chromatin which imposes major constraints on the capacity of cells to perform BER. Therefore chromatin remodelling, stimulated through histone post-translational modifications (PTMs) or ATP-dependent chromatin remodelling complexes (ACRs), are required to stimulate access to the DNA damage and therefore enhance the BER process. Despite this, the molecular mechanisms through which this is co-ordinated and the specific enzymes that promote chromatin remodelling required for BER remain elusive. In this review, we summarise the multitude of in vitro studies utilising mononucleosome substrates containing site-specific DNA base damage that demonstrate the requirement for chromatin remodelling to facilitate BER, particularly in occluded regions. We also highlight preliminary evidence to date for the identity of ACRs, their mechanisms and the role of histone PTMs in modulating the cellular capacity for BER.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage represents one of the most abundant DNA lesions. It remains unclear how DNA repair and DNA damage response (DDR) pathways are co-ordinated and regulated following oxidative stress. While XRCC1 has been implicated in DNA repair, it remains unknown how exactly oxidative DNA damage is repaired and sensed by XRCC1. In this communication, we have demonstrated evidence that XRCC1 is dispensable for ATR-Chk1 DDR pathway following oxidative stress in Xenopus egg extracts. Whereas APE2 is essential for SSB repair, XRCC1 is not required for the repair of defined SSB and gapped plasmids with a 5'-OH or 5'-P terminus, suggesting that XRCC1 and APE2 may contribute to SSB repair via different mechanisms. Neither Polymerase beta nor Polymerase alpha is important for the repair of defined SSB structure. Nonetheless, XRCC1 is important for the repair of DNA damage following oxidative stress. Our observations suggest distinct roles of XRCC1 for genome integrity in oxidative stress in Xenopus egg extracts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Keratoconus is a progressive disorder distinguished by thinning of the corneal tissue and bulging forward into a cone-shaped fashion. Yet its etiology, which is multifactorial, despite intensive research remains elusive. Corneal exposure a reactive oxygen species causing oxidative DNA damage has been reported to be associated with KC and therefore suggesting that DNA base excision repair mechanism might lie behind the pathogenesis of the disease. METHODS We studied the association of three variants in two BER genes (XRCC1 and POLG) and QC occurrence in a cohort of patients from Egypt. Genotyping of the three variants was performed using PCR and restriction enzymes analysis. RESULTS We observed that A allele and A/A genotype of the c.1196A>G variant in the XRCC1 gene were significantly associated with increased KC occurrence while the G allele was associated with decreased KC occurrence. Similarly, the A/A genotype of the c.-1370T>A polymorphism in the POLG gene and the A allele were associated with increased occurrence of KC, while T/A genotype and the T allele were accompanied with decreased occurrence of KC. On the other hand, no association was observed between the c.580C>T variant in the XRCC1 gene and KC occurrence among the studied group of patients. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that c.1196A>G variant of the XRCC1 and c.-1370T>A variant of the POLG gene may be involved in KC pathogenesis and might be considered as a genetic risk factors of the disease among Egyptian population.

Abstract
Class-II AP-endonuclease (XthA) and NAD+-dependent DNA ligase (LigA) are involved in initial and terminal stages of bacterial DNA base excision repair (BER), respectively. XthA acts on abasic sites of damaged DNA to create nicks with 3′OH and 5′-deoxyribose phosphate (5′-dRP) moieties. Co-immunoprecipitation using mycobacterial cell-lysate, identified MtbLigA-MtbXthA complex formation. Pull-down experiments using purified wild-type, and domain-deleted MtbLigA mutants show that LigA-XthA interactions are mediated by the BRCT-domain of LigA. Small-Angle-X-ray scattering, 15N/1H-HSQC chemical shift perturbation experiments and mutational analysis identified the BRCT-domain region that interacts with a novel 104DGQPSWSGKP113 motif on XthA for complex-formation. Isothermal-titration calorimetry experiments show that a synthetic peptide with this sequence interacts with MtbLigA and disrupts XthA–LigA interactions. In vitro assays involving DNA substrate and product analogs show that LigA can efficiently reseal 3′OH and 5′dRP DNA termini created by XthA at abasic sites. Assays and SAXS experiments performed in the presence and absence of DNA, show that XthA inhibits LigA by specifically engaging with the latter's BRCT-domain to prevent it from encircling substrate DNA. Overall, the study suggests a coordinating function for XthA whereby it engages initially with LigA to prevent the undesirable consequences of futile cleavage and ligation cycles that might derail bacterial BER.

Abstract
Human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) has multiple functions in base excision DNA repair (BER) and other cellular processes. Its eukaryote-specific N-terminal extension plays diverse regulatory roles in interaction with different partners. Here, we explored its involvement in interaction with canonical BER proteins. Using fluorescence based-techniques, we compared binding affinities of the full-length and N-terminally truncated forms of APE1 (APE1NΔ35 and APE1NΔ61) for functionally and structurally different DNA polymerase β (Polβ), X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1), and poly(adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1), in the absence and presence of model DNA intermediates. Influence of the N-terminal truncation on binding the AP site-containing DNA was additionally explored. These data suggest that the interaction domain for proteins is basically formed by the conserved catalytic core of APE1. The N-terminal extension being capable of dynamically interacting with the protein and DNA partners is mostly responsible for DNA-dependent modulation of protein–protein interactions. Polβ, XRCC1, and PARP1 were shown to more efficiently regulate the endonuclease activity of the full-length protein than that of APE1NΔ61, further suggesting contribution of the N-terminal extension to BER coordination. Our results advance the understanding of functional roles of eukaryote-specific protein extensions in highly coordinated BER processes.

Abstract
Nucleophosmin (NPM1), an abundant, nucleolar protein with multiple functions affecting cell homeostasis, has also been recently involved in DNA damage repair. The roles of NPM1 in different repair pathways remain however to be elucidated. NPM1 has been described to interact with APE1 (apurinic apyrimidinic endonuclease 1), a key enzyme of the base excision repair (BER) pathway, which could reflect a direct participation of NPM1 in this route. To gain insight into the possible role(s) of NPM1 in BER, we have explored the interplay between the subnuclear localization of both APE1 and NPM1, the in vitro interaction they establish, the effect of binding to abasic DNA on APE1 conformation, and the modulation by NPM1 of APE1 binding and catalysis on DNA. We have found that, upon oxidative damage, NPM1 is released from nucleoli and locates on patches throughout the chromatin, perhaps co-localizing with APE1, and that this traffic could be mediated by phosphorylation of NPM1 on T199. NPM1 and APE1 form a complex in vitro, involving, apart from the core domain, at least part of the linker region of NPM1, whereas the C-terminal domain is dispensable for binding, which explains that an AML leukemia-related NPM1 mutant with an unfolded C-terminal domain can bind APE1. APE1 interaction with abasic DNA stabilizes APE1 structure, as based on thermal unfolding. Moreover, our data suggest that NPM1, maybe by keeping APE1 in an "open" conformation, favours specific recognition of abasic sites on DNA, competing with off-target associations. Therefore, NPM1 might participate in BER favouring APE1 target selection as well as turnover from incised abasic DNA.

Abstract
Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) generates U:G mismatches in Ig genes that can be converted into untemplated mutations during somatic hypermutation or DNA double-strand breaks during class switch recombination (CSR). Null mutations in UNG and MSH2 demonstrate the complementary roles of the base excision repair (BER) and mismatch repair pathways, respectively, in CSR. Phosphorylation of AID at serine 38 was previously hypothesized to regulate BER during CSR, as the AID phosphorylation mutant, AID(S38A), cannot interact with APE1, a BER protein. Consistent with these findings, we observe a complete block in CSR in AIDS38A/S38AMSH2-/- mouse B cells that correlates with an impaired mutation frequency at 5'Sμ. Similarly, somatic hypermutation is almost negligible at the JH4 intron in AIDS38A/S38AMSH2-/- mouse B cells, and, consistent with this, NP-specific affinity maturation in AIDS38A/S38AMSH2-/- mice is not significantly elevated in response to NP-CGG immunization. Surprisingly, AIDS38A/S38AUNG-/- mouse B cells also cannot complete CSR or affinity maturation despite accumulating significant mutations in 5'Sμ as well as the JH4 intron. These data identify a novel role for phosphorylation of AID at serine 38 in mismatch repair-dependent CSR and affinity maturation.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common carcinoma worldwide. Despite the progress in screening and treatment, CRC remains a leading cause of cancer-related mortality. Alterations to normal nucleic acid processing may drive neoplastic transformation of colorectal epithelium. DNA repair machinery performs an essential function in the protection of genome by reducing the number of genetic polymorphisms/variations that may drive carcinogenicity. Four essential DNA repair systems are known which include nucleotide excision repair (NER), base excision repair (BER), mismatch repair (MMR), and double-strand break repair (DSBR). Polymorphisms of DNA repair genes have been shown to influence the risk of cancer development as well as outcomes of treatment. Several studies demonstrated the association between genetic polymorphism of DNA repair genes and increased risk of CRC in different populations. In this review, we have summarized the impact of DNA repair gene polymorphisms on risk of CRC development and treatment outcomes. Advancements of the current understanding for the impact of DNA repair gene polymorphisms on the risk and treatment of CRC may support diagnostic and predictive roles in patients with CRC.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is a critical genome defense pathway that deals with a broad range of non-voluminous DNA lesions induced by endogenous or exogenous genotoxic agents. BER is a complex process initiated by the excision of the damaged base, proceeds through a sequence of reactions that generate various DNA intermediates, and culminates with restoration of the original DNA structure. BER has been extensively studied in microbial and animal systems, but knowledge in plants has lagged behind until recently. Results obtained so far indicate that plants share many BER factors with other organisms, but also possess some unique features and combinations. Plant BER plays an important role in preserving genome integrity through removal of damaged bases. However, it performs additional important functions, such as the replacement of the naturally modified base 5-methylcytosine with cytosine in a plant-specific pathway for active DNA demethylation.

Abstract
Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair factor Cockayne syndrome protein B (CSB) was suggested to function in the repair of oxidative DNA damage. However thus far, no clear role for CSB in base excision repair (BER), the dedicated pathway to remove abundant oxidative DNA damage, could be established. Using live cell imaging with a laser-assisted procedure to locally induce 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) lesions, we previously showed that CSB is recruited to these lesions in a transcription-dependent but NER-independent fashion. Here we showed that recruitment of the preferred 8-oxoG-glycosylase 1 (OGG1) is independent of CSB or active transcription. In contrast, recruitment of the BER-scaffolding protein, X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1), to 8-oxoG lesions is stimulated by CSB and transcription. Remarkably, recruitment of XRCC1 to BER-unrelated single strand breaks (SSBs) does not require CSB or transcription. Together, our results suggest a specific transcription-dependent role for CSB in recruiting XRCC1 to BER-generated SSBs, whereas XRCC1 recruitment to SSBs generated independently of BER relies predominantly on PARP activation. Based on our results, we propose a model in which CSB plays a role in facilitating BER progression at transcribed genes, probably to allow XRCC1 recruitment to BER-intermediates masked by RNA polymerase II complexes stalled at these intermediates.

Abstract
Sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) is a class-III histone deacetylase (HDAC), an NAD+-dependent enzyme deeply involved in gene regulation, genome stability maintenance, apoptosis, autophagy, senescence, proliferation, aging, and tumorigenesis. It also has a key role in the epigenetic regulation of tissue homeostasis and many diseases by deacetylating both histone and non-histone targets. Different studies have shown ambiguous implications of SIRT1 as both a tumor suppressor and tumor promoter. However, this contradictory role seems to be determined by the cell type and SIRT1 localization. SIRT1 upregulation has already been demonstrated in some cancer cells, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and primary colon, prostate, melanoma, and non-melanoma skin cancers, while SIRT1 downregulation was described in breast cancer and hepatic cell carcinomas. Even though new functions of SIRT1 have been characterized, the underlying mechanisms that define its precise role on DNA damage and repair and their contribution to cancer development remains underexplored. Here, we discuss the recent findings on the interplay among SIRT1, oxidative stress, and DNA repair machinery and its impact on normal and cancer cells.

Abstract
Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is a fatal condition with dismal prognosis and aggressive local invasiveness; and with uncharacterised molecular pathology relating to non-specific therapeutic modalities. Given the importance of oxidative stress in chronic diseases and carcinogenesis, and the lacunae in literature regarding its role in gallbladder diseases, this study aimed to study the involvement of oxidative stress and deregulation in the base excision repair (BER) pathway in the pathogenesis of gallbladder diseases including GBC. This study involved patients from the North-East Indian population, where the numbers of reported cases are increasing rapidly and alarmingly. Oxidative stress, based on 8-OH-dG levels, was found to be significantly higher in gallbladder anomalies (cholelithiasis [CL] and cholecystitis [CS]) and GBC at the plasma and DNA level, and was associated with GBC severity. The expressions of key BER pathway genes were downregulated in gallbladder anomalies and GBC compared to controls, and in GBC compared to both non-neoplastic controls and gallbladder anomalies. Expression of XRCC1 and hOGG1 was significantly associated with both susceptibility and severity of GBC. The XRCC1 codon280 polymorphism was associated with disease susceptibility; and significantly higher oxidative stress was observed in hOGG1 genotypic variants. The genomes of GBC patients were found to be more hypermethylated compared to controls, with the promoters of XRCC1 and hOGG1 being hypermethylated and, therefore, being silenced. This study underlined the prognostic significance of the oxidative stress marker 8-OH-dG and BER pathway genes, especially hOGG1 and XRCC1, in gallbladder anomalies and GBC, as well as stated their potential for therapeutic targeting.

Abstract
Repair of two major forms of DNA damage, single strand breaks and base modifications, are dependent on XRCC1. XRCC1 orchestrates these repair processes by temporally and spatially coordinating interactions between several other repair proteins. Here we show that XRCC1 contains a central DNA binding domain (CDB, residues 219–415) encompassing its first BRCT domain. In contrast to the N-terminal domain of XRCC1, which has been reported to mediate damage sensing in vitro, we demonstrate that the DNA binding module identified here lacks binding specificity towards DNA containing nicks or gaps. Alanine substitution of residues within the CDB of XRCC1 disrupt DNA binding in vitro and lead to a significant reduction in XRCC1 retention at DNA damage sites without affecting initial recruitment. Interestingly, reduced retention at sites of DNA damage is associated with an increased rate of repair. These findings suggest that DNA binding activity of XRCC1 plays a significant role in retention at sites of damage and the rate at which damage is repaired.

Abstract
DNA-alkylating agents are commonly used to kill cancer cells, but the base excision repair (BER) pathway they trigger can also produce toxic intermediates that cause tissue damage, such as retinal degeneration (RD). Apoptosis, a process of programmed cell death, is assumed to be the main mechanism of this alkylation-induced photoreceptor (PR) cell death in RD. Here, we studied the involvement of necroptosis (another programmed cell death process) and inflammation in alkylation-induced RD. Male mice exposed to a methylating agent exhibited a reduced number of PR cell rows, active gliosis, and cytokine induction and macrophage infiltration in the retina. Dying PRs exhibited a necrotic morphology, increased 8-hydroxyguanosine abundance (an oxidative damage marker), and overexpression of the necroptosis-associated genes Rip1 and Rip3 The activity of PARP1, which mediates BER, cell death, and inflammation, was increased in PR cells and associated with the release of proinflammatory chemokine HMGB1 from PR nuclei. Mice lacking the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 exhibited more severe RD, whereas deficiency of RIP3 (also known as RIPK3) conferred partial protection. Female mice were partially protected from alkylation-induced RD, showing reduced necroptosis and inflammation compared to males. PRs in mice lacking the BER-initiating DNA glycosylase AAG did not exhibit alkylation-induced necroptosis or inflammation. Our findings show that AAG-initiated BER at alkylated DNA bases induces sex-dependent RD primarily by triggering necroptosis and activating an inflammatory response that amplifies the original damage and, furthermore, reveal new potential targets to prevent this side effect of chemotherapy.
