Shikazono N, Akamatsu K. The role of DNA polymerase I in tolerating single-strand breaks generated at clustered DNA damage in Escherichia coli. Sci Rep 2024; 14:19124. [PMID: 39155334 PMCID: PMC11330960 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-69823-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Accepted: 08/08/2024] [Indexed: 08/20/2024] Open
Abstract
Clustered DNA damage, when multiple lesions are generated in close proximity, has various biological consequences, including cell death, chromosome aberrations, and mutations. It is generally perceived as a hallmark of ionizing radiation. The enhanced mutagenic potential of lesions within a cluster has been suggested to result, at least in part, from the selection of the strand with the mutagenic lesion as the preferred template strand, and that this process is relevant to the tolerance of persistent single-strand breaks generated during an attempted repair. Using a plasmid-based assay in Escherichia coli, we examined how the strand bias is affected in mutant strains deficient in different DNA polymerase I activities. Our study revealed that the strand-displacement and 5'-flap endonuclease activities are required for this process, while 3'-to-5' exonuclease activity is not. We also found the strand template that the mutagenic lesion was located on, whether lagging or leading, had no effect on this strand bias. Our results imply that an unknown pathway operates to repair/tolerate the single-strand break generated at a bi-stranded clustered damage site, and that there exist different backup pathways, depending on which DNA polymerase I activity is compromised.

Abstract
Numerous studies have shown that oxidative modifications of guanine (7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine, 8-oxoG) can affect cellular functions. 7,8-Dihydro-8-oxoadenine (8-oxoA) is another abundant paradigmatic ambiguous nucleobase but findings reported on the mutagenicity of 8-oxoA in bacterial and eukaryotic cells are incomplete and contradictory. Although several genotoxic studies have demonstrated the mutagenic potential of 8-oxoA in eukaryotic cells, very little biochemical and bioinformatics data about the mechanism of 8-oxoA-induced mutagenesis are available. In this review, we discuss dual coding properties of 8-oxoA, summarize historical and recent genotoxicity and biochemical studies, and address the main protective cellular mechanisms of response to 8-oxoA. We also discuss the available structural data for 8-oxoA bypass by different DNA polymerases as well as the mechanisms of 8-oxoA recognition by DNA repair enzymes.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are among the most common and lethal cancers worldwide. GI microbes play an important role in the occurrence and development of GI cancers. The common mechanisms by which GI microbes may lead to the occurrence and development of cancer include the instability of the microbial internal environment, secretion of cancer-related metabolites, and destabilization of the GI mucosal barrier. In recent years, many studies have found that the relationship between GI microbes and the development of cancer is closely associated with the GI redox level. Redox instability associated with GI microbes may induce oxidative stress, DNA damage, cumulative gene mutation, protein dysfunction and abnormal lipid metabolism in GI cells. Redox-related metabolites of GI microbes, such as short-chain fatty acids, hydrogen sulfide and nitric oxide, which are involved in cancer, may also influence GI redox levels. This paper reviews the redox reactions of GI cells regulated by microorganisms and their metabolites, as well as redox reactions in the cancer-related GI microbes themselves. This study provides a new perspective for the prevention and treatment of GI cancers.

Abstract
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and geminin are overexpressed in ovarian cancer, and increasing evidence supports their contribution to ovarian tumor development. Here, we reveal that geminin depletion induces autophagy suppression and enhances reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and apoptosis of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) cells. Bioinformatics analysis and pharmacological inhibition studies confirm that LPA activates geminin expression in the early S phase in HGSOC cells via the LPAR1/3/MMPs/EGFR/PI3K/mTOR pathway. Furthermore, LPA phosphorylates Aurora-A kinase on Thr288 through EGFR transactivation, and this event potentiates additional geminin stabilization. In turn, overexpressed and stabilized geminin regulates DNA replication, cell-cycle progression, and cell proliferation of HGSOC cells. Our data provide potential targets for enhancing the clinical benefit of HGSOC precision medicine.

Abstract
In pathophysiology, reactive oxygen species control diverse cellular phenotypes by oxidizing biomolecules. Among these, the guanine base in nucleic acids is the most vulnerable to producing 8-oxoguanine, which can pair with adenine. Because of this feature, 8-oxoguanine in DNA (8-oxo-dG) induces a G > T (C > A) mutation in cancers, which can be deleterious and thus actively repaired by DNA repair pathways. 8-Oxoguanine in RNA (o8G) causes problems in aberrant quality and translational fidelity, thereby it is subjected to the RNA decay pathway. In addition to oxidative damage, 8-oxo-dG serves as an epigenetic modification that affects transcriptional regulatory elements and other epigenetic modifications. With the ability of o8G•A in base pairing, o8G alters structural and functional RNA-RNA interactions, enabling redirection of posttranscriptional regulation. Here, we address the production, regulation, and function of 8-oxo-dG and o8G under oxidative stress. Primarily, we focus on the epigenetic and epitranscriptional roles of 8-oxoguanine, which highlights the significance of oxidative modification in redox-mediated control of gene expression.

Abstract
Cigarette smoke is a rich source of carcinogens and reactive oxygen species (ROS) that can damage macromolecules including DNA. Repair systems can restore DNA integrity. Depending on the duration or intensity of stress signals, cells may utilize various survival and adaptive mechanisms. ROS levels are kept in check through redundant detoxification processes controlled largely by antioxidant systems. This review covers and expands on the mechanisms available to cigarette smoke-exposed cancer cells for restoring the redox balance. These include multiple layers of transcriptional control, each of which is posited to be activated upon reaching a particular stress threshold, among them the NRF2 pathway, the AP-1 and NF-kB pathways, and, finally, TP53, which triggers apoptosis if extreme toxicity is reached. The review also discusses long noncoding RNAs, which have been implicated recently in regulating oxidative stress—with roles in ROS detoxification, the inflammatory response, oxidative stress-induced apoptosis, and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. Lastly, the emerging roles of tunneling nanotubes in providing additional mechanisms for metabolic rescue and the regulation of redox imbalance are considered, further highlighting the expanded redox reset arsenal available to cells.

Abstract
Multiple lines of evidence indicate that solar UV-B light acts as an important environmental signal in plants, regulating various cellular and metabolic activities, gene expression, growth and development. Here, we show that low levels of UV-B (4.0 kJ m-2) significantly influence plant response during early seedling development in the tropical legume crop Vigna radiata (L.) R. Wilczek. Exposure to low doses of UV-B showed relatively less growth inhibition yet remarkably enhanced lateral root formation in seedlings. Both low and high (8.0 kJ m-2) doses of UV-B treatment induced DNA double-strand breaks and activated the SOG1-related ATM-ATR-mediated DNA damage response pathway. These effects led to G2-M-phase arrest with a compromised expression of the key cell cycle regulators, including CDKB1;1, CDKB2;1 and CYCB1;1, respectively. However, along with these effects, imbibitional exposure of seeds to a low UV-B dose resulted in enhanced accumulation of FZR1/CCS52A, E2Fa and WEE1 kinase and prominent induction of endoreduplication in 7-day-old seedlings. Low dose of UV-B mediated phenotypical responses, while the onset of endoreduplication appeared to be regulated at least in part via UV-B induced reactive oxygen species accumulation. Transcriptome analyses further revealed a network of co-regulated genes associated with DNA repair, cell cycle regulation and oxidative stress response pathways that are activated upon exposure to low doses of UV-B.

Abstract
The Genetic Toxicology Technical Committee (GTTC) of the Health and Environmental Sciences Institute (HESI) is developing adverse outcome pathways (AOPs) that describe modes of action leading to potentially heritable genomic damage. The goal was to enhance the use of mechanistic information in genotoxicity assessment by building empirical support for the relationships between relevant molecular initiating events (MIEs) and regulatory endpoints in genetic toxicology. Herein, we present an AOP network that links oxidative DNA damage to two adverse outcomes (AOs): mutations and chromosomal aberrations. We collected empirical evidence from the literature to evaluate the key event relationships between the MIE and the AOs, and assessed the weight of evidence using the modified Bradford-Hill criteria for causality. Oxidative DNA damage is constantly induced and repaired in cells given the ubiquitous presence of reactive oxygen species and free radicals. However, xenobiotic exposures may increase damage above baseline levels through a variety of mechanisms and overwhelm DNA repair and endogenous antioxidant capacity. Unrepaired oxidative DNA base damage can lead to base substitutions during replication and, along with repair intermediates, can also cause DNA strand breaks that can lead to mutations and chromosomal aberrations if not repaired adequately. This AOP network identifies knowledge gaps that could be filled by targeted studies designed to better define the quantitative relationships between key events, which could be leveraged for quantitative chemical safety assessment. We anticipate that this AOP network will provide the building blocks for additional genotoxicity-associated AOPs and aid in designing novel integrated testing approaches for genotoxicity.

Abstract
Adult diffuse glioma, particularly glioblastoma (GBM), is a devastating tumor of the central nervous system. The existential threat of this disease requires on-going treatment to counteract tumor progression. The present outcome is discouraging as most patients will succumb to this disease. The low cure rate is consistent with the failure of first-line therapy, radiation and temozolomide (TMZ). Even with their therapeutic mechanism of action to incur lethal DNA lesions, tumor growth remains undeterred. Delivering additional treatments only delays the inescapable development of therapeutic tolerance and disease recurrence. The urgency of establishing lifelong tumor control needs to be re-examined with a greater focus on eliminating resistance. Early genomic and transcriptome studies suggest each tumor subtype possesses a unique molecular network to safeguard genome integrity. Subsequent seminal work on post-therapy tumor progression sheds light on the involvement of DNA repair as the causative contributor for hypermutation and therapeutic failure. In this review, we will provide an overview of known molecular factors that influence the engagement of different DNA repair pathways, including targetable vulnerabilities, which can be exploited for clinical benefit with the use of specific inhibitors.

Abstract
Salvicine is a new diterpenoid quinone substance from a natural source, specifically in a Chinese herb. It has powerful growth-controlling abilities against a broad range of human cancer cells in both in vitro and in vivo environments. A significant inhibitory effect of salvicine on multidrug-resistant (MDR) cells has also been discovered. Several research studies have examined the activities of salvicine on topoisomerase II (Topo II) by inducing reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling. As opposed to the well-known Topo II toxin etoposide, salvicine mostly decreases the catalytic activity with a negligible DNA breakage effect, as revealed by several enzymatic experiments. Interestingly, salvicine dramatically reduces lung metastatic formation in the MDA-MB-435 orthotopic lung cancer cell line. Recent investigations have established that salvicine is a new non-intercalative Topo II toxin by interacting with the ATPase domains, increasing DNA-Topo II interaction, and suppressing DNA relegation and ATP hydrolysis. In addition, investigations have revealed that salvicine-induced ROS play a critical role in the anticancer-mediated signaling pathway, involving Topo II suppression, DNA damage, overcoming multidrug resistance, and tumor cell adhesion suppression, among other things. In the current study, we demonstrate the role of salvicine in regulating the ROS signaling pathway and the DNA damage response (DDR) in suppressing the progression of cancer cells. We depict the mechanism of action of salvicine in suppressing the DNA-Topo II complex through ROS induction along with a brief discussion of the anticancer perspective of salvicine.

Abstract
Clusters of DNA damage, also called multiply damaged sites (MDS), are a signature of ionizing radiation exposure. They are defined as two or more lesions within one or two helix turns, which are created by the passage of a single radiation track. It has been shown that the clustering of DNA damage compromises their repair. Unresolved repair may lead to the formation of double-strand breaks (DSB) or the induction of mutation. We engineered three complex MDS, comprised of oxidatively damaged bases and a one-nucleotide (1 nt) gap (or not), in order to investigate the processing and the outcome of these MDS in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Such MDS could be caused by high linear energy transfer (LET) radiation. Using a whole-cell extract, deficient (or not) in base excision repair (BER), and a plasmid-based assay, we investigated in vitro excision/incision at the damaged bases and the mutations generated at MDS in wild-type, BER, and translesion synthesis-deficient cells. The processing of the studied MDS did not give rise to DSB (previously published). Our major finding is the extremely high mutation frequency that occurs at the MDS. The proposed processing of MDS is rather complex, and it largely depends on the nature and the distribution of the damaged bases relative to the 1 nt gap. Our results emphasize the deleterious consequences of MDS in eukaryotic cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Reduced efficiency of DNA repair systems has long been a suspected factor in increasing the risk of cancer. OBJECTIVE In this work we investigate influence of three selected polymorphisms of DNA repair gene XRCC1 and level of oxidative damage (measured as level of 8-oxo-guanine) on modulation of the risk of HNSCC. METHODS In group of 359 patients with HNSCC (diagnosed with OSCC) the occurrence of polymorphic variants in Arg399Gln, Arg280His and Arg194Trp of XRCC1 were studied with TaqMan technique. In addition we determined level of 8-oxo-guanine with ELISA. RESULTS Arg399Gln polymorphism and Arg194Trp polymorphism of XRCC1 gene increases the risk of HNSCC. The coexistence of Arg399Gln and Arg194Trp simultaneously enhances this effect. At the same time, their coexistence with His280His raises the risk to a level higher than in the absence of such coexistence, although the His280His itself is not associated with an increased risk of HNSCC. Patients have higher levels of 8-oxo-guanine than control group, and His280His is polymorphism with highest mean value of 8-oxoG level among studied. CONCLUSION Patients with HNSCC not only have an increased level of 8-oxoguanine and the Arg399Gln and Arg/Trp of XRCC1 modulate risk of cancer, but there is also a relationship between these two phenomena, and it can be explained using intragenic combinations revealing that a high level of 8-oxoG could be a potential mechanism behind the modulation of HNSCC risk by the polymorphisms studied.

Abstract
As like in mammalian system, the DNA damage responsive cell cycle checkpoint functions play crucial role for maintenance of genome stability in plants through repairing of damages in DNA and induction of programmed cell death or endoreduplication by extensive regulation of progression of cell cycle. ATM and ATR (ATAXIA-TELANGIECTASIA-MUTATED and -RAD3-RELATED) function as sensor kinases and play key role in the transmission of DNA damage signals to the downstream components of cell cycle regulatory network. The plant-specific NAC domain family transcription factor SOG1 (SUPPRESSOR OF GAMMA RESPONSE 1) plays crucial role in transducing signals from both ATM and ATR in presence of double strand breaks (DSBs) in the genome and found to play crucial role in the regulation of key genes involved in cell cycle progression, DNA damage repair, endoreduplication and programmed cell death. Here we report that Arabidopsis exposed to high salinity shows generation of oxidative stress induced DSBs along with the concomitant induction of endoreduplication, displaying increased cell size and DNA ploidy level without any change in chromosome number. These responses were significantly prominent in SOG1 overexpression line than wild-type Arabidopsis, while sog1 mutant lines showed much compromised induction of endoreduplication under salinity stress. We have found that both ATM-SOG1 and ATR-SOG1 pathways are involved in the salinity mediated induction of endoreduplication. SOG1was found to promote G2-M phase arrest in Arabidopsis under salinity stress by downregulating the expression of the key cell cycle regulators, including CDKB1;1, CDKB2;1, and CYCB1;1, while upregulating the expression of WEE1 kinase, CCS52A and E2Fa, which act as important regulators for induction of endoreduplication. Our results suggest that Arabidopsis undergoes endoreduplicative cycle in response to salinity induced DSBs, showcasing an adaptive response in plants under salinity stress.

Abstract
Disruption of circadian rhythms causes decreased health and fitness, and evidence from multiple organisms links clock disruption to dysregulation of the cell cycle. However, the function of circadian regulation for the essential process of DNA replication remains elusive. Here, we demonstrate that in the cyanobacterium Synechococcus elongatus, a model organism with the simplest known circadian oscillator, the clock generates rhythms in DNA replication to minimize the number of open replication forks near dusk that would have to complete after sunset. Metabolic rhythms generated by the clock ensure that resources are available early at night to support any remaining replication forks. Combining mathematical modeling and experiments, we show that metabolic defects caused by clock-environment misalignment result in premature replisome disassembly and replicative abortion in the dark, leaving cells with incomplete chromosomes that persist through the night. Our study thus demonstrates that a major function of this ancient clock in cyanobacteria is to ensure successful completion of genome replication in a cycling environment.

Strand with mutagenic lesion is preferentially used as a template in the region of a bi-stranded clustered DNA damage site in Escherichia coli. Sci Rep 2020; 10:9737.

Abstract
The damaging potential of ionizing radiation arises largely from the generation of clustered DNA damage sites within cells. Previous studies using synthetic DNA lesions have demonstrated that models of clustered DNA damage exhibit enhanced mutagenic potential of the comprising lesions. However, little is known regarding the processes that lead to mutations in these sites, apart from the fact that base excision repair of lesions within the cluster is compromised. Unique features of the mutation frequencies within bi-stranded clusters have led researchers to speculate that the strand containing the mutagenic lesion is preferentially used as the template for DNA synthesis. To gain further insights into the processing of clustered DNA damage sites, we used a plasmid-based assay in E. coli cells. Our findings revealed that the strand containing a mutagenic lesion within a bi-stranded clustered DNA damage site is frequently used as the template. This suggests the presence of an, as yet unknown, strand synthesis process that is unrelated to base excision repair, and that this process plays an important role in mutagenesis. The length of the region of strand preference was found to be determined by DNA polymerase I.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species are a constant threat to DNA as they modify bases with the risk of disrupting genome function, inducing genome instability and mutation. Such risks are due to primary oxidative DNA damage and also mediated by the repair process. This leads to a delicate decision process for the cell as to whether to repair a damaged base at a specific genomic location or better leave it unrepaired. Persistent DNA damage can disrupt genome function, but on the other hand it can also contribute to gene regulation by serving as an epigenetic mark. When such processes are out of balance, pathophysiological conditions could get accelerated, because oxidative DNA damage and resulting mutagenic processes are tightly linked to ageing, inflammation, and the development of multiple age-related diseases, such as cancer and neurodegenerative disorders. Recent technological advancements and novel data analysis strategies have revealed that oxidative DNA damage, its repair, and related mutations distribute heterogeneously over the genome at multiple levels of resolution. The involved mechanisms act in the context of genome sequence, in interaction with genome function and chromatin. This review addresses what we currently know about the genome distribution of oxidative DNA damage, repair intermediates, and mutations. It will specifically focus on the various methodologies to measure oxidative DNA damage distribution and discuss the mechanistic conclusions derived from the different approaches. It will also address the consequences of oxidative DNA damage, specifically how it gives rise to mutations, genome instability, and how it can act as an epigenetic mark.

Abstract
The DNA-binding of the natural benzophenanthridine alkaloid chelerythrine (CHE) has been assessed by combining molecular modeling and optical absorption spectroscopy. Specifically, both double-helical (B-DNA) and G-quadruplex sequences—representative of different topologies and possessing biological relevance, such as telomeric or regulatory sequences—have been considered. An original multiscale protocol, making use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) calculations, allowed us to compare the theoretical and experimental circular dichroism spectra of the different DNA topologies, readily providing atomic-level details of the CHE–DNA binding modes. The binding selectivity towards G-quadruplexes is confirmed by both experimental and theoretical determination of the binding free energies. Overall, our mixed computational and experimental approach is able to shed light on the interaction of small molecules with different DNA conformations. In particular, CHE may be seen as the building block of promising drug candidates specifically targeting G-quadruplexes for both antitumoral and antiviral purposes.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are a group of short-lived, highly reactive, oxygen-containing molecules that can induce DNA damage and affect the DNA damage response (DDR). There is unequivocal pre-clinical and clinical evidence that ROS influence the genotoxic stress caused by chemotherapeutics agents and ionizing radiation. Recent studies have provided mechanistic insight into how ROS can also influence the cellular response to DNA damage caused by genotoxic therapy, especially in the context of Double Strand Breaks (DSBs). This has led to the clinical evaluation of agents modulating ROS in combination with genotoxic therapy for cancer, with mixed success so far. These studies point to context dependent outcomes with ROS modulator combinations with Chemotherapy and radiotherapy, indicating a need for additional pre-clinical research in the field. In this review, we discuss the current knowledge on the effect of ROS in the DNA damage response, and its clinical relevance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND DNA is subject to constant chemical modification and damage, which eventually results in variable mutation rates throughout the genome. Although detailed molecular mechanisms of DNA damage and repair are well understood, damage impact and execution of repair across a genome remain poorly defined. RESULTS To bridge the gap between our understanding of DNA repair and mutation distributions, we developed a novel method, AP-seq, capable of mapping apurinic sites and 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine bases at approximately 250-bp resolution on a genome-wide scale. We directly demonstrate that the accumulation rate of apurinic sites varies widely across the genome, with hot spots acquiring many times more damage than cold spots. Unlike single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in cancers, damage burden correlates with marks for open chromatin notably H3K9ac and H3K4me2. Apurinic sites and oxidative damage are also highly enriched in transposable elements and other repetitive sequences. In contrast, we observe a reduction at chromatin loop anchors with increased damage load towards inactive compartments. Less damage is found at promoters, exons, and termination sites, but not introns, in a seemingly transcription-independent but GC content-dependent manner. Leveraging cancer genomic data, we also find locally reduced SNV rates in promoters, coding sequence, and other functional elements. CONCLUSIONS Our study reveals that oxidative DNA damage accumulation and repair differ strongly across the genome, but culminate in a previously unappreciated mechanism that safeguards the regulatory and coding regions of genes from mutations.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation causes various different types of DNA damage. If not repaired, DNA damage can have detrimental effects. Previous studies indicate that the spatial distribution of DNA lesions induced by ionizing radiation is highly relevant to the ensuing biological effects. Clustered DNA damage, consisting of DNA lesions in close proximity, has been studied in detail, and has enhanced mutagenic potential depending on the configuration of the lesions. However, it is not known whether clustered DNA damage affects the mutagenic potential of a sufficiently separated, isolated lesion. Using synthetic damage constructs, we investigated the mutagenic potential of an isolated 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) separated by at least 7 bp from other lesions. Under the spatial distribution of DNA lesions tested in the present study, neighboring clustered DNA lesions likely retarded the processing of the isolated 8-oxoG and resulted in enhanced mutation frequency. However, the enhanced mutagenic potential was dependent on which strand the isolated 8-oxoG was located. Our results indicate that the processing of a bi-stranded cluster could affect the mutagenic outcome of a nearby isolated lesion, separated up to ∼20 bp.

Abstract
DNA is the target of chemical compounds (drugs, pollutants, photosensitizers, etc.), which bind through non-covalent interactions. Depending on their structure and their chemical properties, DNA binders can associate to the minor or to the major groove of double-stranded DNA. They can also intercalate between two adjacent base pairs, or even replace one or two base pairs within the DNA double helix. The subsequent biological effects are strongly dependent on the architecture of the binding motif. Discriminating between the different binding patterns is of paramount importance to predict and rationalize the effect of a given compound on DNA. The structural characterization of DNA complexes remains, however, cumbersome at the experimental level. In this contribution, we employed all-atom molecular dynamics simulations to determine the standard binding free energy of DNA with netropsin, a well-characterized antiviral and antimicrobial drug, which associates to the minor groove of double-stranded DNA. To overcome the sampling limitations of classical molecular dynamics simulations, which cannot capture the large change in configurational entropy that accompanies binding, we resort to a series of potentials of mean force calculations involving a set of geometrical restraints acting on collective variables.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation produces clustered damage to DNA which is difficult to repair and thus more harmful than single lesions. Clustered lesions have only been investigated in dsDNA models. Introducing the term 'clustered damage to G-quadruplexes' we report here on the structural effects of multiple tetrahydrofuranyl abasic sites replacing loop adenines (A/AP) and tetrad guanines (G/AP) in quadruplexes formed by the human telomere d[AG3(TTAG3)3] (htel-22) and d[TAG3(TTAG3)3TT] (htel-25) in K+ solutions. Single to triple A/APs increased the population of parallel strands in their structures by stabilizing propeller type loops, shifting the antiparallel htel-22 into hybrid or parallel quadruplexes. In htel-25, the G/APs inhibited the formation of parallel strands and these adopted antiparallel topologies. Clustered G/AP and A/APs reduced the thermal stability of the wild-type htel-25. Depending on position, A/APs diminished or intensified the damaging effect of the G/APs. Taken together, clustered lesions can disrupt the topology and stability of the htel quadruplexes and restrict their conformational space. These in vitro results suggest that formation of clustered lesions in the chromosome capping structure can result in the unfolding of existing G-quadruplexes which can lead to telomere shortening.

Abstract
Clustered DNA lesions, also called Multiply Damaged Sites, is the hallmark of ionizing radiation. It is defined as the combination of two or more lesions, comprising strand breaks, oxidatively generated base damage, abasic sites within one or two DNA helix turns, created by the passage of a single radiation track. DSB clustered lesions associate DSB and several base damage and abasic sites in close vicinity, and are assimilated to complex DSB. Non-DSB clustered lesions comprise single strand break, base damage and abasic sites. At radiation with low Linear Energy Transfer (LET), such as X-rays or γ-rays clustered DNA lesions are 3-4 times more abundant than DSB. Their proportion and their complexity increase with increasing LET; they may represent a large part of the damage to DNA. Studies in vitro using engineered clustered DNA lesions of increasing complexity have greatly enhanced our understanding on how non-DSB clustered lesions are processed. Base excision repair is compromised, the observed hierarchy in the processing of the lesions within a cluster leads to the formation of SSB or DSB as repair intermediates and increases the lifetime of the lesions. As a consequence, the chances of mutation drastically increase. Complex DSB, either formed directly by irradiation or by the processing of non-DSB clustered lesions, are repaired by slow kinetics or left unrepaired and cause cell death or pass mitosis. In surviving cells, large deletions, translocations, and chromosomal aberrations are observed. This review details the most recent data on the processing of non-DSB clustered lesions and complex DSB and tends to demonstrate the high significance of these specific DNA damage in terms of genomic instability induction.

Abstract
Exposure of biological materials to ionizing radiation often induces clustered DNA damage. The mutagenicity of clustered DNA damage can be analyzed with plasmids carrying a clustered DNA damage site, in which the strand bias of a replicating plasmid (i.e., the degree to which each of the two strands of the plasmid are used as the template for replication of the plasmid) can help to clarify how clustered DNA damage enhances the mutagenic potential of comprising lesions. Placement of a mismatch near a clustered DNA damage site can help to determine the strand bias, but present plasmid-based methods do not allow insertion of a mismatch at a given site in the plasmid. Here, we describe a polymerization-based method for constructing a plasmid containing clustered DNA lesions and a mismatch. The presence of a DNA lesion and a mismatch in the plasmid was verified by enzymatic treatment and by determining the relative abundance of the progeny plasmids derived from each of the two strands of the plasmid.

Abstract
Clustered apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP; abasic) DNA lesions produced by ionizing radiation are by far more cytotoxic than isolated AP lesion entities. The structure and dynamics of a series of seven 23-bp oligonucleotides featuring simple bistranded clustered damage sites, comprising of two AP sites, zero, one, three or five bases 3′ or 5′ apart from each other, were investigated through 400 ns explicit solvent molecular dynamics simulations. They provide representative structures of synthetically engineered multiply damage sites-containing oligonucleotides whose repair was investigated experimentally (Nucl. Acids Res. 2004, 32:5609-5620; Nucl. Acids Res. 2002, 30: 2800–2808). The inspection of extrahelical positioning of the AP sites, bulge and non Watson–Crick hydrogen bonding corroborates the experimental measurements of repair efficiencies by bacterial or human AP endonucleases Nfo and APE1, respectively. This study provides unprecedented knowledge into the structure and dynamics of clustered abasic DNA lesions, notably rationalizing the non-symmetry with respect to 3′ to 5′ position. In addition, it provides strong mechanistic insights and basis for future studies on the effects of clustered DNA damage on the recognition and processing of these lesions by bacterial or human DNA repair enzymes specialized in the processing of such lesions.

Abstract
Influenza viruses account for significant morbidity worldwide. Inflammatory responses, including excessive generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), mediate lung injury in severe influenza infections. However, the molecular basis of inflammation-induced lung damage is not fully understood. Here, we studied influenza H1N1 infected cells in vitro, as well as H1N1 infected mice, and we monitored molecular and cellular responses over the course of 2 weeks in vivo. We show that influenza induces DNA damage to both, when cells are directly exposed to virus in vitro (measured using the comet assay) and also when cells are exposed to virus in vivo (estimated via γH2AX foci). We show that DNA damage, as well as responses to DNA damage persist in vivo until long after virus has been cleared, at times when there are inflammation associated RONS (measured by xanthine oxidase activity and oxidative products). The frequency of lung epithelial and immune cells with increased γH2AX foci is elevated in vivo, especially for dividing cells (Ki-67-positive) exposed to oxidative stress during tissue regeneration. Additionally, we observed a significant increase in apoptotic cells as well as increased levels of DNA double strand break (DSB) repair proteins Ku70, Ku86 and Rad51 during the regenerative phase. In conclusion, results show that influenza induces DNA damage both in vitro and in vivo, and that DNA damage responses are activated, raising the possibility that DNA repair capacity may be a determining factor for tissue recovery and disease outcome.

Abstract
Purpose Ionizing radiation induces DNA damage, some of which are present in clusters, defined as two or more lesions within one to two helical turns of DNA by passage of a single radiation track. These clusters are thought to contribute to the detrimental effects of radiation, in part due to the compromised repair of clustered DNA damaged sites. Materials and methods The repair of three-lesion cluster present in oligonucleotides were determined in vitro using the hamster cell line CHO-K1 nuclear extract or purified proteins involved in base excision repair. The mutagenic potential of these clusters present in a plasmid was determined using an Escherichia coli reporter assay. Results We have shown that the repair of an abasic (AP) site within a three-lesion cluster, comprised of an AP site and bi-stranded 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanine (8-oxoG) lesions, is retarded compared to that of an isolated AP site in an in vitro base excision repair (BER) assay. Further, the mutation frequency of the clustered damaged site is up to three times greater than that of an isolated 8-oxoG lesion. Conclusions As a consequence of enhanced mutagenic potential of clusters, non-double-strand break (DSB) DNA damage may contribute to the detrimental effects of radiation, in addition to the effects of DSB.

Abstract
A dL lesion is not repaired as effectively as an AP site. The repair of a cluster with dL and 8-oxodGuo lesions is compromised. Delayed repair of the cluster leads to an increase in mutation frequency.
A signature of ionizing radiation is the induction of DNA clustered damaged sites. Non-double strand break (DSB) clustered damage has been shown to compromise the base excision repair pathway, extending the lifetimes of the lesions within the cluster, compared to isolated lesions. This increases the likelihood the lesions persist to replication and thus increasing the mutagenic potential of the lesions within the cluster. Lesions formed by ionizing radiation include 8-oxo-7,8-dihydro-2′-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo) and 2-deoxyribonolactone (dL). dL poses an additional challenge to the cell as it is not repaired by the short-patch base excision repair pathway. Here we show recalcitrant dL repair is reflected in mutations observed when DNA containing it and a proximal 8-oxodGuo is replicated in Escherichia coli. 8-oxodGuo in close proximity to dL on the opposing DNA strand results in an enhanced frequency of mutation of the lesions within the cluster and a 20 base sequence flanking the clustered damage site in an E. coli based plasmid assay. In vitro repair of a dL lesion is reduced when compared to the repair of an abasic (AP) site and a tetrahydrofuran (THF), and this is due mainly to a reduction in the activity of polymerase β, leading to retarded FEN1 and ligase 1 activities. This study has given insights in to the biological effects of clusters containing dL.
