Abstract
Background We have previously described the association between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) prevalence and the two mutY Homolog (E. coli) (MUTYH) SNPs (rs3219463 and rs3219476) among the Taiwanese population. This present study will aim to elucidate whether the SNPs can alter the expression of EGFR in the progression of RA. Methods The cohort study included 368 Taiwan’s Han Chinese RA patients and 364 healthy controls. Blood samples collected from the participants were analyzed to determine their serum MUTYH levels and to identify rs3219463 SNP of MUTYH from their genomic DNA. Results Our data resulted in a statistically significant difference in genotype frequency distributions at rs3219463 for RA patients and controls (p < 0.0002). Also, the patients with G carrier at rs3219463 were less likely to suffer from painful joints (p < 0.006) and DAS28 scores (p < 0.003). Furthermore, the increase in serum level of MUTYH was also observed in RA patients (p < 0.005). Conclusions Our study showed that RA is associated with rs3219463 SNP in EGFR gene and an increased serum level of the MUTYH protein. These findings suggest MUTYH is worthy of further investigation as a therapeutic target for RA.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) is an essential DNA repair pathway involved in the maintenance of genome stability and thus in the prevention of human diseases, such as premature aging, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Protein posttranslational modifications (PTMs), including acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, SUMOylation, and ubiquitylation, have emerged as important contributors in controlling cellular BER protein levels, enzymatic activities, protein-protein interactions, and protein cellular localization. These PTMs therefore play key roles in regulating the BER pathway and are consequently crucial for coordinating an efficient cellular DNA damage response. In this review, we summarize the presently available data on characterized PTMs of key BER proteins, the functional consequences of these modifications at the protein level, and also the impact on BER in vitro and in vivo.

SIRT6 protein deacetylase interacts with MYH DNA glycosylase, APE1 endonuclease, and Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 checkpoint clamp. BMC Mol Biol 2015; 16:12.

Abstract
Background SIRT6, a member of the NAD+-dependent histone/protein deacetylase family, regulates genomic stability, metabolism, and lifespan. MYH glycosylase and APE1 are two base excision repair (BER) enzymes involved in mutation avoidance from oxidative DNA damage. Rad9–Rad1–Hus1 (9–1–1) checkpoint clamp promotes cell cycle checkpoint signaling and DNA repair. BER is coordinated with the checkpoint machinery and requires chromatin remodeling for efficient repair. SIRT6 is involved in DNA double-strand break repair and has been implicated in BER. Here we investigate the direct physical and functional interactions between SIRT6 and BER enzymes. Results We show that SIRT6 interacts with and stimulates MYH glycosylase and APE1. In addition, SIRT6 interacts with the 9-1-1 checkpoint clamp. These interactions are enhanced following oxidative stress. The interdomain connector of MYH is important for interactions with SIRT6, APE1, and 9–1–1. Mutagenesis studies indicate that SIRT6, APE1, and Hus1 bind overlapping but different sequence motifs on MYH. However, there is no competition of APE1, Hus1, or SIRT6 binding to MYH. Rather, one MYH partner enhances the association of the other two partners to MYH. Moreover, APE1 and Hus1 act together to stabilize the MYH/SIRT6 complex. Within human cells, MYH and SIRT6 are efficiently recruited to confined oxidative DNA damage sites within transcriptionally active chromatin, but not within repressive chromatin. In addition, Myh foci induced by oxidative stress and Sirt6 depletion are frequently localized on mouse telomeres. Conclusions Although SIRT6, APE1, and 9-1-1 bind to the interdomain connector of MYH, they do not compete for MYH association. Our findings indicate that SIRT6 forms a complex with MYH, APE1, and 9-1-1 to maintain genomic and telomeric integrity in mammalian cells.

Abstract
The RAD9A-HUS1-RAD1 (9-1-1) complex is a heterotrimeric clamp that promotes checkpoint signaling and repair at DNA damage sites. In this study, we elucidated HUS1 functional residues that drive clamp assembly, DNA interactions, and downstream effector functions. First, we mapped a HUS1-RAD9A interface residue that was critical for 9-1-1 assembly and DNA loading. Next, we identified multiple positively charged residues in the inner ring of HUS1 that were crucial for genotoxin-induced 9-1-1 chromatin localization and ATR signaling. Finally, we found two hydrophobic pockets on the HUS1 outer surface that were important for cell survival after DNA damage. Interestingly, these pockets were not required for 9-1-1 chromatin localization or ATR-mediated CHK1 activation but were necessary for interactions between HUS1 and its binding partner MYH, suggesting that they serve as interaction domains for the recruitment and coordination of downstream effectors at damage sites. Together, these results indicate that, once properly loaded onto damaged DNA, the 9-1-1 complex executes multiple, separable functions that promote genome maintenance.

Abstract
MutY DNA glycosylase homologs (MYH or MUTYH) reduce G:C to T:A mutations by removing misincorporated adenines or 2-hydroxyadenines paired with guanine or 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxo-G). Mutations in the human MYH (hMYH) gene are associated with the colorectal cancer predisposition syndrome MYH-associated polyposis. To examine the function of MYH in human cells, we regulated MYH gene expression by knockdown or overproduction. MYH knockdown human HeLa cells are more sensitive to the killing effects of H2O2 than the control cells. In addition, hMYH knockdown cells have altered cell morphology, display enhanced susceptibility to apoptosis, and have altered DNA signaling activation in response to oxidative stress. The cell cycle progression of hMYH knockdown cells is also different from that of the control cells following oxidative stress. Moreover, hMYH knockdown cells contain higher levels of 8-oxo-G lesions than the control cells following H2O2 treatment. Although MYH does not directly remove 8-oxo-G, MYH may generate favorable substrates for other repair enzymes. Overexpression of mouse Myh (mMyh) in human mismatch repair defective HCT15 cells makes the cells more resistant to killing and refractory to apoptosis by oxidative stress than the cells transfected with vector. In conclusion, MYH is a vital DNA repair enzyme that protects cells from oxidative DNA damage and is critical for a proper cellular response to DNA damage.

Abstract
MUTYH, a human ortholog of MutY, is a post-replicative DNA glycosylase, highly conserved throughout evolution, involved in the correction of mismatches resulting from a faulty replication of the oxidized base 8-hydroxyguanine (8-oxodG). In particular removal of adenine from A:8-oxodG mispairs by MUTYH activity is followed by error-free base excision repair (BER) events, leading to the formation of C:8-oxodG base pairs. These are the substrate of another BER enzyme, the OGG1 DNA glycosylase, which then removes 8-oxodG from DNA. Thus the combined action of OGG1 and MUTYH prevents oxidative damage-induced mutations, i.e. GC->TA transversions. Germline mutations in MUTYH are associated with a recessively heritable colorectal polyposis, now referred to as MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). Here we will review the phenotype(s) associated with MUTYH inactivation from bacteria to mammals, the structure of the MUTYH protein, the molecular mechanisms of its enzymatic activity and the functional characterization of MUTYH variants. The relevance of these results will be discussed to define the role of specific human mutations in colorectal cancer risk together with the possible role of MUTYH inactivation in sporadic cancer.

Abstract
Maintenance of genetic stability is crucial for all organisms in order to avoid the onset of deleterious diseases such as cancer. One of the many proveniences of DNA base damage in mammalian cells is oxidative stress, arising from a variety of endogenous and exogenous sources, generating highly mutagenic oxidative DNA lesions. One of the best characterized oxidative DNA lesion is 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxo-G), which can give rise to base substitution mutations (also known as point mutations). This mutagenicity is due to the miscoding potential of 8-oxo-G that instructs most DNA polymerases (pols) to preferentially insert an Adenine (A) opposite 8-oxo-G instead of the appropriate Cytosine (C). If left unrepaired, such A:8-oxo-G mispairs can give rise to CG→AT transversion mutations. A:8-oxo-G mispairs are proficiently recognized by the MutY glycosylase homologue (MUTYH). MUTYH can remove the mispaired A from an A:8-oxo-G, giving way to the canonical base-excision repair (BER) that ultimately restores undamaged Guanine (G). The importance of this MUTYH-initiated pathway is illustrated by the fact that biallelic mutations in the MUTYH gene are associated with a hereditary colorectal cancer syndrome termed MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP). In this review, we will focus on MUTYH, from its discovery to the most recent data regarding its cellular roles and interaction partners. We discuss the involvement of the MUTYH protein in the A:8-oxo-G BER pathway acting together with pol λ, the pol that can faithfully incorporate C opposite 8-oxo-G and thus bypass this lesion in a correct manner. We also outline the current knowledge about the regulation of MUTYH itself and the A:8-oxo-G repair pathway by posttranslational modifications (PTM). Finally, to achieve a clearer overview of the literature, we will briefly touch on the rather confusing MUTYH nomenclature. In short, MUTYH is a unique DNA glycosylase that catalyzes the excision of an undamaged base from DNA.

Abstract
COLORECTAL CANCER IS CLASSIFIED IN TO THREE FORMS sporadic (70-75%), familial (20-25%) and hereditary (5-10%). hereditary colorectal cancer syndromes classified into two different subtypes: polyposis and non polyposis. Familial Adenomatous polyposis (FAP; OMIM #175100) is the most common polyposis syndrome, account for <1% of colorectal cancer incidence and characterized by germline mutations in the Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC, 5q21- q22; OMIM #175100). FAP is a dominant cancer predisposing syndrome which 20-25% cases are de novo. There is also another polyposis syndrome; MUTYH associated polyposis (MAP, OMIM 608456) which it is caused by mutation in human Mut Y homologue MUTYH (MUTYH; OMIM 604933) and it is associated with multiple (15-100) colonic adenomas. In this paper we discuss MUTYH mechanism as an important member of Base Excision Repair (BER) family and its important role in polyposis condition.

Abstract
The DNA glycosylase MUTYH (mutY homolog (Escherichia coli)) counteracts the mutagenic effects of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxodG) by removing adenine (A) misincorporated opposite the oxidized purine. Biallelic germline mutations in MUTYH cause the autosomal recessive MUTYH-associated adenomatous polyposis (MAP). Here we designed new tools to investigate the biochemical defects and biological consequences associated with different MUTYH mutations in human cells. To identify phenotype(s) associated with MUTYH mutations, lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) were derived from seven MAP patients harboring missense as well as truncating mutations in MUTYH. These included homozygous p.Arg245His, p.Gly264TrpfsX7 or compound heterozygous variants (p.Gly396Asp/Arg245Cys, p.Gly396Asp/Tyr179Cys, p.Gly396Asp/Glu410GlyfsX43, p.Gly264TrpfsX7/Ala385ProfsX23 and p.Gly264TrpfsX7/Glu480del). DNA glycosylase assays of MAP LCL extracts confirmed that all these variants were defective in removing A from an 8-oxoG:A DNA substrate, but retained wild-type OGG1 activity. As a consequence of this defect, MAP LCLs accumulated DNA 8-oxodG in their genome and exhibited a fourfold increase in spontaneous mutagenesis at the PIG-A gene compared with LCLs from healthy donors. They were also hypermutable by KBrO3--a source of DNA 8-oxodG--indicating that the relatively modest spontaneous mutator phenotype associated with MUTYH loss can be significantly enhanced by conditions of oxidative stress. These observations identify accumulation of DNA 8-oxodG and a mutator phenotype as likely contributors to the pathogenesis of MUTYH variants.

Abstract
Oxidative genome damage induced by reactive oxygen species includes oxidized bases, abasic (AP) sites, and single-strand breaks, all of which are repaired via the evolutionarily conserved base excision repair/single-strand break repair (BER/SSBR) pathway. BER/SSBR in mammalian cells is complex, with preferred and backup sub-pathways, and is linked to genome replication and transcription. The early BER/SSBR enzymes, namely, DNA glycosylases (DGs) and the end-processing proteins such as abasic endonuclease 1 (APE1), form complexes with downstream repair (and other noncanonical) proteins via pairwise interactions. Furthermore, a unique feature of mammalian early BER/SSBR enzymes is the presence of a disordered terminal extension that is absent in their Escherichia coli prototypes. These nonconserved segments usually contain organelle-targeting signals, common interaction interfaces, and sites of posttranslational modifications that may be involved in regulating their repair function including lesion scanning. Finally, the linkage of BER/SSBR deficiency to cancer, aging, and human neurodegenerative diseases, and therapeutic targeting of BER/SSBR are discussed.

Abstract
MUTYH-associated polyposis (MAP) is a colorectal cancer predisposition syndrome that is caused by inherited biallelic mutations in the base excision repair (BER) gene, MUTYH. MUTYH is a DNA glycosylase that removes adenine (A) misinserted opposite 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (OG). In this work, wild type (WT) MUTYH overexpressed using a baculovirus-driven insect cell expression system (BEVS) provided significantly higher levels of enzyme compared to bacterial overexpression. The isolated MUTYH enzyme was analyzed for potential post-translational modifications using mass spectrometry. An in vivo phosphorylation site was validated at Serine 524, which is located in the C-terminal OG recognition domain within the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) binding region. Characterization of the phosphomimetic (S524D) and phosphoablating (S524A) mutants together with the observation that Ser 524 can be phosphorylated suggest that this residue may play an important regulatory role in vivo by altering stability and OG:A mismatch affinity.

Abstract
Human 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (OGG1) efficiently removes mutagenic 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoGua) and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine when paired with cytosine in oxidatively damaged DNA. Excision of 8-oxoGua mispaired with adenine may lead to G-->T transversions. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation could affect the cellular distribution and enzymatic activity of OGG1. Mutations and polymorphisms of OGG1 may affect the enzymatic activity and have been associated with increased risk of several cancers. In this study, we used double-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides containing 8-oxoGua:Cyt or 8-oxoGua:Ade pairs, as well as gamma-irradiated calf thymus DNA, to investigate the kinetics and substrate specificity of several known OGG1 polymorphic variants and phosphomimetic Ser-->Glu mutants. Among the polymorphic variants, A288V and S326C displayed opposite-base specificity similar to that of wild-type OGG1, whereas OGG1-D322N was 2.3-fold more specific for the correct opposite base than the wild-type enzyme. All phosphomimetic mutants displayed approximately 1.5-3-fold lower ability to remove 8-oxoGua in both assays, whereas the substrate specificity of the phosphomimetic mutants was similar to that of the wild-type enzyme. OGG1-S326C efficiently excised 8-oxoGua from oligodeoxynucleotides and 2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine from gamma-irradiated DNA, but excised 8-oxoG rather inefficiently from gamma-irradiated DNA. Otherwise, kcat values for 8-oxoGua excision obtained from both types of experiments were similar for all OGG1 variants studied. It is known that the human AP endonuclease APEX1 can stimulate OGG1 activity by increasing its turnover rate. However, when wild-type OGG1 was replaced by one of the phosphomimetic mutants, very little stimulation of 8-oxoGua removal was observed in the presence of APEX1.

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

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS The human mutyh gene encodes a base excision repair protein that prevents G:C to T:A transversions in DNA. Biallelic mutations in this gene are associated with recessively inherited familial colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to characterize the functional activity of mutant-MUTYH and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-MUTYH proteins involving familial colorectal cancer. METHODS MUTYH variants were cloned and assayed for their glycosylase and DNA binding activities using synthetic double-stranded oligonucleotide substrates by analyzing cleavage products by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. RESULTS In this study, we have characterized 9 missense/frameshift mutants and 2 SNPs for their DNA binding and repair activity in vitro. Two missense mutants (R260Q and G382D) were found to be partially active in both glycosylase and DNA binding, whereas 3 other missense mutants (Y165C, R231H, and P281L) were severely defective in both activities. All of the frameshift mutants (Y90X, Q377X, E466X, and 1103delC) were completely devoid of both glycosylase and DNA binding activities. One SNP (V22M) showed the same activity as wild-type MUTYH protein, but the other SNP (Q324H) was partially impaired in adenine removal. CONCLUSIONS This study of MUTYH mutants suggests that certain SNPs may be as partially dysfunctional in base excision repair as missense-MUTYH mutants and lead to colorectal carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated as one of the agents responsible for many neurodegenerative diseases. A critical target for ROS is DNA. Most oxidative stress-induced DNA damage in the nucleus and mitochondria is removed by the base excision repair pathway. Apn1 is a yeast enzyme in this pathway which possesses a wider substrate specificity and greater enzyme activity than its mammalian counterpart for removing DNA damage, making it a good therapeutic candidate. For this study we targeted Apn1 to mitochondria in a neuronal cell line derived from the substantia nigra by using a mitochondrial targeting signal (MTS) in an effort to hasten the removal of DNA damage and thereby protect these cells. We found that following oxidative stress, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) was repaired more efficiently in cells containing Apn1 with the MTS than controls. There was no difference in nuclear repair. However, cells that expressed Apn1 without the MTS showed enhanced repair of both nuclear and mtDNA. Both Apn1-expressing cells were more resistant to cell death following oxidative stress compared with controls. Therefore, these results reveal that the expression of Apn1 in neurons may be of potential therapeutic benefit for treating patients with specific neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
The checkpoint protein Rad9/Rad1/Hus1 heterotrimer (the 9-1-1 complex) is structurally similar to the proliferating cell nuclear antigen sliding clamp and has been proposed to sense DNA damage that leads to cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. Human (h) NEIL1 DNA glycosylase, an ortholog of bacterial Nei/Fpg, is involved in repairing oxidatively damaged DNA bases. In this study, we show that hNEIL1 interacts with hRad9, hRad1 and hHus1 as individual proteins and as a complex. Residues 290–350 of hNEIL1 are important for the 9-1-1 association. A significant fraction of the hNEIL1 nuclear foci co-localize with hRad9 foci in hydrogen peroxide treated cells. Human NEIL1 DNA glycosylase activity is significantly stimulated by hHus1, hRad1, hRad9 separately and the 9-1-1 complex. Thus, the 9-1-1 complex at the lesion sites serves as both a damage sensor to activate checkpoint control and a component of base excision repair.

Abstract
The base excision repair carried out by the bacterial MutY DNA glycosylase and eukaryotic MutY homolog (MYH) is responsible for removing adenines misincorporated into DNA opposite 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-guanines (8-oxoG), thereby preventing G:C to T:A mutations. MutY and MYH can also remove adenines from A/G and A/C and can remove guanines from G/8-oxoG mismatches at reduced rates. Biallelic germline mutations in the human MYH gene predispose individuals to multiple colorectal adenomas and carcinoma. Four functional assays are usually employed to characterize the MutY and MYH. Gel mobility shift or fluorescence anisotropy assays measures DNA-binding affinity and the apparent dissociation constants. Glycosylase assay determines the catalytic parameters of the enzyme. By using a trapping assay in the presence of sodium borohydride, the protein-DNA covalent intermediate can be identified. The in vivo activity of MutY or MYH can be measured by complementation in Escherichia coli mutY mutants or fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe MYH knockout cells. MutY and MYH interacting proteins can be analyzed by the glutathione S-transferase pull-down assay, Far-western, and coimmunoprecipitation. The in vitro and in vivo activities of MYH can be modulated by several proteins, including mismatch recognition enzymes MSH2/MSH6, proliferating cell nuclear antigen, and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease.

Abstract
The MYH (MutY glycosylase homologue) increases replication fidelity by removing adenines or 2-hydroxyadenine misincorporated opposite GO (7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-guanine). The 9-1-1 complex (Rad9, Rad1 and Hus1 heterotrimer complex) has been suggested as a DNA damage sensor. Here, we report that hMYH (human MYH) interacts with hHus1 (human Hus1) and hRad1 (human Rad1), but not with hRad9. In addition, interactions between MYH and the 9-1-1 complex, from both the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe and human cells, are partially interchangeable. The major Hus1-binding site is localized to residues 295-350 of hMYH and to residues 245-293 of SpMYH (S. pombe MYH). Val315 of hMYH and Ile261 of SpMYH play important roles for their interactions with Hus1. hHus1 protein and the 9-1-1 complex of S. pombe can enhance the glycosylase activity of SpMYH. Moreover, the interaction of hMYH-hHus1 is enhanced following ionizing radiation. A significant fraction of the hMYH nuclear foci co-localizes with hRad9 foci in H2O2-treated cells. These results reveal that the 9-1-1 complex plays a direct role in base excision repair.

Abstract
The MutY homolog (MYH) can excise adenines misincorporated opposite to guanines or 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-guanines (8-oxoG) during DNA replication; thereby preventing G:C to T:A transversions. Germline mutations in the human MYH gene are associated with recessive inheritance of colorectal adenomatous polyposis (MAP). Here, we characterize one newly identified MAP-associated MYH missense mutation (R231L) that lies adjacent to the putative hMSH6 binding domain. The R231L mutant protein has severe defects in A/GO binding and in adenine glycosylase activities. The mutant fails to complement mutY-deficiency in Escherichia coli, but does not affect binding to hMSH6. These data support the role of the hMYH pathway in carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Inherited biallelic mutations in the human MUTYH gene are responsible for the recessive syndrome--adenomatous colorectal polyposis (MUTYH associated polyposis, MAP)--which significantly increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Defective MUTYH activity causes G:C to T:A transversions in tumour APC and other genes thereby altering genomic integrity. We report that of the four established cell lines, derived from patients with the MAP phenotype and containing biallelic MUTYH mutations, three contain altered expressions of MUTYH protein (MUTYH Y165C(-/-), MUTYH 1103delC/G382D and MUTYH Y165C/G382D but not MUTYH G382D(-/-)), but that all four cell lines have wild type levels of MUTYH mRNA. Mutant MUTYH proteins in these four cell lines possess significantly lowered binding and cleavage activities with heteroduplex oligonucleotides containing A.8-oxoG and 8-oxoA.G mispairs. Transfection of mitochondrial or nuclear MUTYH cDNAs partially correct altered MUTYH expression and activity in these defective cell lines. Finally, we surprisingly find that defective MUTYH may not alter cell survival after hydrogen peroxide and menadione treatments. The Y165C and 1103delC mutations significantly reduce MUTYH protein stability and thus repair activity, whereas the G382D mutation produces dysfunctional protein only suggesting different functional molecular mechanisms by which the MAP phenotype may contribute to the development of CRC.

Abstract
Oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) initiates the repair of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), a major oxidative DNA base modification that has been directly implicated in cancer and aging. OGG1 functions in the base excision repair pathway, for which a molecular hand-off mechanism has been proposed. To date, only one functional and a few physical protein interactions have been reported for OGG1. Using the yeast two-hybrid system and a protein array membrane, we identified two novel protein interactions of OGG1, with two different protein kinases: Cdk4, a serine-threonine kinase, and c-Abl, a tyrosine kinase. We confirmed these interactions in vitro using recombinant proteins and in vivo by co-immunoprecipitation from whole cell extracts. OGG1 is phosphorylated in vitro by Cdk4, resulting in a 2.5-fold increase in the 8-oxoG/C incision activity of OGG1. C-Abl tyrosine phosphorylates OGG1 in vitro; however, this phosphorylation event does not affect OGG1 8-oxoG/C incision activity. These results provide the first evidence that a post-translational modification of OGG1 can affect its catalytic activity. The distinct functional outcomes from serine/threonine or tyrosine phosphorylation may indicate that activation of different signal transduction pathways modulate OGG1 activity in different ways.

Abstract
E. coli MutY excises adenine from duplex DNA when it is mispaired with the mutagenic oxidative lesion 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (OG). While E. coli MutY has been extensively studied, a detailed kinetic analysis of a mammalian MutY homologue has been inhibited by poor overexpression in bacterial hosts. This current work is the first detailed study of substrate recognition and repair of mismatched DNA by a mammalian adenine glycosylase, the murine MutY homologue (mMYH). Similar to E. coli MutY, the processing of OG:A substrates by mMYH is biphasic, indicating that product release is rate-limiting. Surprisingly, the intrinsic rates of adenine removal from both OG:A and G:A substrates by mMYH are diminished ( approximately 10-fold) compared to E. coli MutY. However, similar to E. coli MutY, the rate of adenine removal is approximately nine-fold faster with an OG:A- than a G:A-containing substrate. Interestingly, the rate of removal of 2-hydroxyadenine mispaired with OG or G in duplex DNA by mMYH was similar to the rate of adenine removal from the analogous context. In contrast, 2-hydroxyadenine removal by E. coli MutY was significantly reduced compared to adenine removal opposite both OG and G. Furthermore, dissociation constant measurements with duplexes containing noncleavable 2'-deoxyadenosine analogues indicate that mMYH is less sensitive to the structure of the base mispaired with OG or G than MutY. Though in many respects the catalytic behavior of mMYH is similar to E. coli MutY, the subtle differences may translate into differences in their in vivo functions.

Abstract
The generation of reactive oxygen species may be both beneficial to cells, performing a function in inter- and intracellular signalling, and detrimental, modifying cellular biomolecules, accumulation of which has been associated with numerous diseases. Of the molecules subject to oxidative modification, DNA has received the greatest attention, with biomarkers of exposure and effect closest to validation. Despite nearly a quarter of a century of study, and a large number of base- and sugar-derived DNA lesions having been identified, the majority of studies have focussed upon the guanine modification, 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG). For the most part, the biological significance of other lesions has not, as yet, been investigated. In contrast, the description and characterisation of enzyme systems responsible for repairing oxidative DNA base damage is growing rapidly, being the subject of intense study. However, there remain notable gaps in our knowledge of which repair proteins remove which lesions, plus, as more lesions identified, new processes/substrates need to be determined. There are many reports describing elevated levels of oxidatively modified DNA lesions, in various biological matrices, in a plethora of diseases; however, for the majority of these the association could merely be coincidental, and more detailed studies are required. Nevertheless, even based simply upon reports of studies investigating the potential role of 8-OH-dG in disease, the weight of evidence strongly suggests a link between such damage and the pathogenesis of disease. However, exact roles remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
Repair of most modified and mispaired bases in the genome is initiated by DNA glycosylases, which bind to their respective targets and cleave the N-glycosyl bond to initiate base excision repair (BER). The mammalian homolog of the Escherichia coli MutY DNA glycosylase (MYH) cleaves adenine residues paired with either oxidized or non-modified guanines. MYH is crucial for the avoidance of mutations resulting from oxidative DNA damage. Multiple N-terminal splice variants of MYH exist in mammalian cells and it is likely that different variants result in the production of enzymes with altered properties. To investigate whether modifications in the N-terminus are consequential to MYH function, we overexpressed intact and N-terminal-deletion rat MYH proteins and examined their activities. We found that deletion of 75 amino acids, which perturbs the catalytic core that is conserved with E.coli MutY, abolished excision activity. In contrast, deletions limited to the extended mammalian N-terminal domain, differentially influenced steady-state excision rates. Notably, deletion of 50 amino acids resulted in an enzyme with a significantly lower K(m) favoring formation of excision products with 3'-OH termini. Our findings suggest that MYH isoforms divergent in the N-terminus influence excision rates and processing of abasic sites.

Abstract
Oxidative DNA damage can generate a variety of cytotoxic DNA lesions such as 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), which is one of the most mutagenic bases formed from oxidation of genomic DNA because 8-oxoG can readily mispair with either cytosine or adenine. If unrepaired, further replication of A.8-oxoG mispairs results in C:G to A:T transversions, a form of genomic instability. We reported previously that repair of A.8-oxoG mispairs was defective and that 8-oxoG levels were elevated in several microsatellite stable human colorectal cancer cell lines lacking MutY mutations (human MutY homolog gene, hmyh, MYH MutY homolog protein). In this report, we provide biochemical evidence that the defective repair of A.8-oxoG may be due, at least in part, to defective phosphorylation of the MutY protein in these cell lines. In MutY-defective cell extracts, but not extracts with functional MutY, A.8-oxoG repair was increased by incubation with protein kinases A and C (PKA and PKC) and caesin kinase II. Treatment of these defective cells, but not cells with functional MutY, with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate also increased the cellular A.8-oxoG repair activity and decreased the elevated 8-oxoG levels. We show that MutY is serine-phosphorylated in vitro by the action of PKC and in the MutY-defective cells by phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate but that MutY is already phosphorylated at baseline in proficient cell lines. Finally, using antibody-isolated MutY protein, we show that MutY can be directly phosphorylated by PKC that directly increases the level of MutY catalyzed A.8-oxoG repair.

Abstract
Base excision repair (BER) protects against damage to DNA from reactive oxygen species, methylation, deamination, hydroxylation and other by-products of cellular metabolism. Until last year, inherited deficiencies in the BER pathway had not been causally linked with any human genetic disorder. An apparent explanation was functional redundancy between proteins in this and other pathways. However, it was recently discovered that biallelic mutations in the BER DNA glycosylase MYH lead to an autosomal recessive syndrome of adenomatous colorectal polyposis and very high colorectal cancer risk. We review the molecular mechanism of tumourigenesis in MYH polyposis, the preliminary delineation of the MYH polyposis phenotype and the functional overlap of MYH with other repair proteins.

Abstract
Previous work from our laboratory identified YggX as a protein whose accumulation increased the resistance of Salmonella enterica to superoxide stress, reversed defects attributed to oxidized [Fe-S] clusters, and decreased the spontaneous mutation frequency of the cells. Here we present work aimed at determining why the accumulation of YggX correlates with reduced mutation frequency. Genetic and biochemical data showed that accumulation of YggX reduced the damage to DNA by hydroxyl radicals. The ability of purified YggX to protect DNA from Fenton chemistry mediated damage in vitro and to decrease the concentration of Fe(II) ions in solution available for chelation provided a framework for the interpretation of data obtained from in vivo experiments. The interpretation of in vitro assay results, within the context of the in vivo phenotypes, was validated by a mutant variant of YggX (C7S) that was unable to function in vivo or in vitro. We propose a model, based on data presented here and reported earlier, that suggests YggX is a player in Fe(II) trafficking in bacteria.

Abstract
The oxidized guanine lesion 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (OG) is highly mutagenic, resulting in G:C to T:A transversion mutations in the absence of repair. The Escherichia coli adenine glycosylase MutY and its human homolog (hMYH) play an important role in the prevention of mutations associated with OG by removing misincorporated adenine residues from OG:A mismatches. Previously, biallelic mutations of hMYH have been identified in a British family (Family N) with symptoms characteristic of familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), which is typically associated with mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. Afflicted members of this family were compound heterozygotes for two mutations in hMYH, Y165C and G382D. These positions are highly conserved in MutY across phylogeny. The current work reveals a reduced ability of the hMYH variants compared to wild-type (WT) hMYH to complement the activity of E.coli MutY in mutY((-)) E.coli. In vitro analysis of the corresponding mutations in E.coli MutY revealed a reduction in the adenine glycosylase activity of the enzymes. In addition, evaluation of substrate affinity using a substrate analog, 2'-deoxy-2'-fluoroadenosine (FA) revealed that both mutations severely diminish the ability to recognize FA, and discriminate between OG and G. Importantly, adenine removal with both the mutant and WT E.coli enzymes was observed to be less efficient from a mismatch in the sequence context observed to be predominantly mutated in tumors of Family N. Interestingly, the magnitude of the reduced activity of the E.coli mutant enzymes relative to the WT enzyme was magnified in the "hotspot" sequence context. If the corresponding mutations in hMYH cause similar sensitivity to sequence context, this effect may contribute to the specific targeting of the APC gene. The lack of complementation of the hMYH variants for MutY, and the reduced activity of the Y82C and G253D E.coli enzymes, provide additional circumstantial evidence that the somatic mutations in APC, and the occurrence of FAP in Family N, are due to a reduced ability of the Y165C and G382D hMYH enzymes to recognize and repair OG:A mismatches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adenine paired with 8-hydroxyguanine, a major oxidatively damaged DNA lesion, is excised by mutY homologue (MYH) base excision repair protein in human cells. Since genetic polymorphisms of DNA repair genes associated with the activities and the expression levels of their products may modulate cancer susceptibility of individuals, we investigated the effect of a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the MYH gene on the difference in the expression levels of its products. RESULTS An aberrant size of the beta type nuclear form transcript was detected in a lung cancer cell line, VMRC-LCD, by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis. The transcript contained the intron 1 sequence, and it was due to alternative splicing resulting from IVS1+5G/C SNP. The presence of the upstream open reading frame (ORF) on the 5'-side of the native ORF in the beta type transcript from the IVS1+5C allele could reduce the translation efficiency of the transcript into the nuclear form protein. Thus, expression vectors bearing the 5'-untranslated region sequence of either the IVS1+5G or 5C allele were constructed. In vitro translation analysis, as well as Western blot and quantitative RT-PCR analyses of the H1299 lung cancer cell line transfected with these vectors, revealed that the translation efficiency of the IVS1+5C transcript into MYH protein was much lower (approximately 30) than that of the IVS1+5G transcript. CONCLUSIONS The SNP at the splice donor site of the MYH gene resulted in reduced translation efficiency of its transcripts. This is the fourth case of single nucleotide variations that cause alterations in translation initiation sites and translation efficiencies in human cells.

Abstract
The MutY homolog (MYH) is responsible for removing adenines misincorporated on a template DNA strand containing G or 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) and thus preventing G:C to T:A mutations. Human MYH has been shown to interact physically with human proliferating cell nuclear antigen (hPCNA). Here, we report that a similar interaction between SpMYH and SpPCNA occurs in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Binding of SpMYH to SpPCNA was not observed when phenylalanine 444 in the PCNA binding motif of SpMYH was replaced with alanine. The F444A mutant of SpMYH expressed in yeast cells had normal adenine glycosylase and DNA binding activities. However, expression of this mutant form of SpMYH in a SpMYHDelta cell could not reduce the mutation frequency of the cell to the normal level. Moreover, SpMYH interacted with hPCNA, and SpPCNA interacted with hMYH but not with F518A/F519A mutant hMYH containing mutations in its PCNA binding motif. Although the SpMYHDelta cells expressing hMYH had partially reduced mutation frequency, the F518A/F519A mutant hMYH could not reduce the mutation frequency of SpMYHDelta cells. Thus, the interaction between SpMYH and SpPCNA is important for SpMYH biological function in mutation avoidance.

Abstract
Adenines mismatched with guanines or 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-deoxyguanines that arise through DNA replication errors can be repaired by either base excision repair or mismatch repair. The human MutY homolog (hMYH), a DNA glycosylase, removes adenines from these mismatches. Human MutS homologs, hMSH2/hMSH6 (hMutSalpha), bind to the mismatches and initiate the repair on the daughter DNA strands. Human MYH is physically associated with hMSH2/hMSH6 via the hMSH6 subunit. The interaction of hMutSalpha and hMYH is not observed in several mismatch repair-defective cell lines. The hMutSalpha binding site is mapped to amino acid residues 232-254 of hMYH, a region conserved in the MutY family. Moreover, the binding and glycosylase activities of hMYH with an A/7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-deoxyguanine mismatch are enhanced by hMutSalpha. These results suggest that protein-protein interactions may be a means by which hMYH repair and mismatch repair cooperate in reducing replicative errors caused by oxidized bases.
