Abstract
Aldehydes are widespread in the environment, with multiple sources such as food and beverages, industrial effluents, cigarette smoke, and additives. The toxic effects of exposure to several aldehydes have been observed in numerous studies. At the molecular level, aldehydes damage DNA, cross-link DNA and proteins, lead to lipid peroxidation, and are associated with increased disease risk including cancer. People genetically predisposed to aldehyde sensitivity exhibit severe health outcomes. In various diseases such as Fanconi's anemia and Cockayne syndrome, loss of aldehyde-metabolizing pathways in conjunction with defects in DNA repair leads to widespread DNA damage. Importantly, aldehyde-associated mutagenicity is being explored in a growing number of studies, which could offer key insights into how they potentially contribute to tumorigenesis. Here, we review the genotoxic effects of various aldehydes, focusing particularly on the DNA adducts underlying the mutagenicity of environmentally derived aldehydes. We summarize the chemical structures of the aldehydes and their predominant DNA adducts, discuss various methodologies, in vitro and in vivo, commonly used in measuring aldehyde-associated mutagenesis, and highlight some recent studies looking at aldehyde-associated mutation signatures and spectra. We conclude the Review with a discussion on the challenges and future perspectives of investigating aldehyde-associated mutagenesis.

Abstract
Genomic instability, one of cancer's hallmarks, is induced by genotoxins from endogenous and exogenous sources, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), diet, and environmental pollutants. A sensitive in vivo genotoxicity test is required for the identification of human hazards to reduce the potential health risk. The somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) or wing spot test is a genotoxicity assay involving Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) as a classical, alternative human model. This review describes the principle of the SMART assay in conjunction with its advantages and disadvantages and discusses applications of the assay covering all segments of health-related industries, including food, dietary supplements, drug industries, pesticides, and herbicides, as well as nanoparticles. Chemopreventive strategies are outlined as a global health trend for the anti-genotoxicity of interesting herbal extract compounds determined by SMART assay. The successful application of Drosophila for high-throughput screening of mutagens is also discussed as a future perspective.

Abstract
It has been two decades since the discovery of the most mutagenic human DNA polymerase, polymerase iota (Polι). Since then, the biochemical activity of this translesion synthesis (TLS) enzyme has been extensively explored, mostly through in vitro experiments, with some insight into its cellular activity. Polι is one of four members of the Y-family of polymerases, which are the best characterized DNA damage-tolerant polymerases involved in TLS. Polι shares some common Y-family features, including low catalytic efficiency and processivity, high infidelity, the ability to bypass some DNA lesions, and a deficiency in 3'→5' exonucleolytic proofreading. However, Polι exhibits numerous properties unique among the Y-family enzymes. Polι has an unusual catalytic pocket structure and prefers Hoogsteen over Watson-Crick pairing, and its replication fidelity strongly depends on the template; further, it prefers Mn2+ ions rather than Mg2+ as catalytic activators. In addition to its polymerase activity, Polι possesses also 5'-deoxyribose phosphate (dRP) lyase activity, and its ability to participate in base excision repair has been shown. As a highly error-prone polymerase, its regulation is crucial and mostly involves posttranslational modifications and protein-protein interactions. The upregulation and downregulation of Polι are correlated with different types of cancer and suggestions regarding the possible function of this polymerase have emerged from studies of various cancer lines. Nonetheless, after twenty years of research, the biological function of Polι certainly remains unresolved.

PARP1 protects from benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide-induced replication stress and mutagenicity. Arch Toxicol 2017; 92:1323-1340.

Abstract
Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) is a complex and reversible posttranslational modification catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose)polymerases (PARPs), which orchestrates protein function and subcellular localization. The function of PARP1 in genotoxic stress response upon induction of oxidative DNA lesions and strand breaks is firmly established, but its role in the response to chemical-induced, bulky DNA adducts is understood incompletely. To address the role of PARP1 in the response to bulky DNA adducts, we treated human cancer cells with benzo[a]pyrene 7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE), which represents the active metabolite of the environmental carcinogen benzo[a]pyrene [B(a)P], in nanomolar to low micromolar concentrations. Using a highly sensitive LC-MS/MS method, we revealed that BPDE induces cellular PAR formation in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Consistently, PARP1 activity significantly contributed to BPDE-induced genotoxic stress response. On one hand, PARP1 ablation rescued BPDE-induced NAD+ depletion and protected cells from BPDE-induced short-term toxicity. On the other hand, strong sensitization effects of PARP inhibition and PARP1 ablation were observed in long-term clonogenic survival assays. Furthermore, PARP1 ablation significantly affected BPDE-induced S- and G2-phase transitions. Together, these results point towards unresolved BPDE-DNA lesions triggering replicative stress. In line with this, BPDE exposure resulted in enhanced formation and persistence of DNA double-strand breaks in PARP1-deficient cells as evaluated by microscopic co-localization studies of 53BP1 and γH2A.X foci. Consistently, an HPRT mutation assay revealed that PARP inhibition potentiated the mutagenicity of BPDE. In conclusion, this study demonstrates a profound role of PARylation in BPDE-induced genotoxic stress response with significant functional consequences and potential relevance with regard to B[a]P-induced cancer risks.

Abstract
Under physiological conditions, cells are in a stable state known as redox homeostasis, which is maintained by the balance between continuous ROS/RNS generation and several mechanisms involved in antioxidant activity. ROS overproduction results in alterations in the redox homeostasis that promote oxidative damage to major components of the cell, including the biomembrane phospholipids. Lipid peroxidation subsequently generates a diverse set of products, including α,β-unsaturated aldehydes. Of these products, 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (HNE) is the most studied aldehyde on the basis of its involvement in cellular physiology and pathology. This review summarizes the current knowledge in the field of HNE generation, metabolism, and detoxification, as well as its interactions with various cellular macromolecules (protein, phospholipid, and nucleic acid). The formation of HNE-protein adducts enables HNE to participate in multi-step regulation of cellular metabolic pathways that include signaling and transcription of antioxidant enzymes, pro-inflammatory factors, and anti-apoptotic proteins. The most widely described roles for HNE in the signaling pathways are associated with its activation of kinases, as well as transcription factors that are responsible for redox homeostasis (Ref-1, Nrf2, p53, NFκB, and Hsf1). Depending on its level, HNE exerts harmful or protective effects associated with the induction of antioxidant defense mechanisms. These effects make HNE a key player in maintaining redox homeostasis, as well as producing imbalances in this system that participate in aging and the development of pathological conditions.

Abstract
Replication stress is a strong and early driving force for genomic instability and tumor development. Beside replicative DNA polymerases, an emerging group of specialized DNA polymerases is involved in the technical assistance of the replication machinery in order to prevent replicative stress and its deleterious consequences. During S-phase, altered progression of the replication fork by endogenous or exogenous impediments induces replicative stress, causing cells to reach mitosis with genomic regions not fully duplicated. Recently, specific mechanisms to resolve replication intermediates during mitosis with the aim of limiting DNA damage transmission to daughter cells have been identified. In this review, we detail the two major actions of specialized DNA polymerases that limit DNA damage transmission: the prevention of replicative stress by non-B DNA replication and the recovery of stalled replication forks.

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene is a known human carcinogen. As underlying mechanism, the induction of stable DNA adducts and mutations have been repeatedly demonstrated. Also, the activation of cellular stress response on the transcriptional level has been described. Nevertheless, the interrelationship between these different events is less well understood, especially at low, for human exposure relevant concentrations. Within the present study, we applied the reactive metabolite benzo[a]pyrene diolepoxide (BPDE) in the nanomolar, non-cytotoxic concentration range in human TK6 cells and quantified the induction and repair of stable DNA adducts at the N2-position of guanine by HPLC with fluorescence detection. Significant levels of DNA lesions were detected even at the lowest concentration of 10 nM BPDE, with a linear increase up to 50 nM. Relative repair was similar at all damage levels, reaching about 30% after 8 h and 60% after 24 h. Mutation frequencies were quantified as GPI-deficient cells by the recently established in vitro PIG-A mutagenicity assay. Again, a linear dose–response-relationship in the before-mentioned concentration range was observed, also when plotting the number of GPI-deficient cells against the number of DNA adducts. Furthermore, we explored the time- and concentration-dependent DNA damage response on the transcriptional level via a high-throughput RT-qPCR technique by quantifying the impact of BPDE on the transcription of 95 genes comprising DNA damage response, DNA repair factors, oxidative stress response, cell cycle arrest, cell proliferation, and apoptosis. As expected, BPDE activated DNA damage signaling, p53 and AP-1 dependent signaling, oxidative stress response, and apoptosis. However, in contrast to DNA adducts and mutations, the onset of the transcriptional DNA damage response was restricted to higher concentrations, indicating that its respective activations require a certain level of DNA lesions. Altogether, the results indicate that in case of BPDE, DNA lesions and mutations were correlated at all concentrations, suggesting that repair is not complete even at low levels of DNA damage. Considering the ongoing discussion on potential thresholds also for genotoxic carcinogens, the results are of major relevance, both with respect to basic research as well as to risk assessment of chemical carcinogens.

Abstract
Human DNA polymerases (pols) η and ι are Y-family DNA polymerase paralogs that facilitate translesion synthesis past damaged DNA. Both polη and polι can be monoubiquitinated in vivo. Polη has been shown to be ubiquitinated at one primary site. When this site is unavailable, three nearby lysines may become ubiquitinated. In contrast, mass spectrometry analysis of monoubiquitinated polι revealed that it is ubiquitinated at over 27 unique sites. Many of these sites are localized in different functional domains of the protein, including the catalytic polymerase domain, the proliferating cell nuclear antigen-interacting region, the Rev1-interacting region, and its ubiquitin binding motifs UBM1 and UBM2. Polι monoubiquitination remains unchanged after cells are exposed to DNA-damaging agents such as UV light (generating UV photoproducts), ethyl methanesulfonate (generating alkylation damage), mitomycin C (generating interstrand cross-links), or potassium bromate (generating direct oxidative DNA damage). However, when exposed to naphthoquinones, such as menadione and plumbagin, which cause indirect oxidative damage through mitochondrial dysfunction, polι becomes transiently polyubiquitinated via Lys11- and Lys48-linked chains of ubiquitin and subsequently targeted for degradation. Polyubiquitination does not occur as a direct result of the perturbation of the redox cycle as no polyubiquitination was observed after treatment with rotenone or antimycin A, which both inhibit mitochondrial electron transport. Interestingly, polyubiquitination was observed after the inhibition of the lysine acetyltransferase KATB3/p300. We hypothesize that the formation of polyubiquitination chains attached to polι occurs via the interplay between lysine acetylation and ubiquitination of ubiquitin itself at Lys11 and Lys48 rather than oxidative damage per se.

Abstract
Deficiencies in DNA repair due to inherited germ-line mutations in DNA repair genes cause increased risk of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer. In sporadic GI cancers, mutations in DNA repair genes are relatively rare. However, epigenetic alterations that reduce expression of DNA repair genes are frequent in sporadic GI cancers. These epigenetic reductions are also found in field defects that give rise to cancers. Reduced DNA repair likely allows excessive DNA damages to accumulate in somatic cells. Then either inaccurate translesion synthesis past the un-repaired DNA damages or error-prone DNA repair can cause mutations. Erroneous DNA repair can also cause epigenetic alterations (i.e., epimutations, transmitted through multiple replication cycles). Some of these mutations and epimutations may cause progression to cancer. Thus, deficient or absent DNA repair is likely an important underlying cause of cancer. Whole genome sequencing of GI cancers show that between thousands to hundreds of thousands of mutations occur in these cancers. Epimutations that reduce DNA repair gene expression and occur early in progression to GI cancers are a likely source of this high genomic instability. Cancer cells deficient in DNA repair are more vulnerable than normal cells to inactivation by DNA damaging agents. Thus, some of the most clinically effective chemotherapeutic agents in cancer treatment are DNA damaging agents, and their effectiveness often depends on deficient DNA repair in cancer cells. Recently, at least 18 DNA repair proteins, each active in one of six DNA repair pathways, were found to be subject to epigenetic reduction of expression in GI cancers. Different DNA repair pathways repair different types of DNA damage. Evaluation of which DNA repair pathway(s) are deficient in particular types of GI cancer and/or particular patients may prove useful in guiding choice of therapeutic agents in cancer therapy.

Abstract
Most spontaneous and DNA damage-induced nucleotide substitutions in eukaryotes depend on translesion synthesis polymerases Rev1 and Pol ζ, the latter consisting of the catalytic subunit Rev3 and the accessory protein Rev7. Here we review the regulation, and the biochemical and cellular functions, of Rev1/Pol ζ-dependent translesion synthesis. These are correlated with phenotypes of mouse models with defects in Rev1, Rev3 or Rev7. The data indicate that Rev1/Pol ζ-mediated translesion synthesis is important for adaptive immunity while playing paradoxical roles in oncogenesis. On the other hand, by enabling the replication of endogenously damaged templates, Rev1/Pol ζ -dependent translesion synthesis protects stem cells, thereby preventing features of ageing. In conclusion, Rev1/Pol ζ-dependent translesion synthesis at DNA helix-distorting nucleotide lesions orchestrates pleiotropic responses that determine organismal fitness and disease.

Abstract
Translesion synthesis (TLS) provides a highly conserved mechanism that enables DNA synthesis on a damaged template. TLS is performed by specialized DNA polymerases of which polymerase (Pol) κ is important for the cellular response to DNA damage induced by benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dihydrodiol-9,10-epoxide (BPDE), ultraviolet (UV) light and the alkylating agent methyl methanesulfonate (MMS). As TLS polymerases are intrinsically error-prone, tight regulation of their activity is required. One level of control is provided by ubiquitination of the homotrimeric DNA clamp PCNA at lysine residue 164 (PCNA-Ub). We here show that Polκ can function independently of PCNA modification and that Polη can function as a backup during TLS of MMS-induced lesions. Compared to cell lines deficient for PCNA modification (Pcna(K164R)) or Polκ, double mutant cell lines display hypersensitivity to MMS but not to BPDE or UV-C. Double mutant cells also displayed delayed post-replicative TLS, accumulate higher levels of replication stress and delayed S-phase progression. Furthermore, we show that Polη and Polκ are redundant in the DNA damage bypass of MMS-induced DNA damage. Taken together, we provide evidence for PCNA-Ub-independent activation of Polκ and establish Polη as an important backup polymerase in the absence of Polκ in response to MMS-induced DNA damage.

Abstract
The isothiocyanate sulforaphane (SFN), the major hydrolysis product of glucosinolates present in broccoli, has frequently been proposed to exert anticarcinogenic properties, mainly due to the induction of the nrf2/Keap1/ARE-signaling pathway. As potential underlying mechanism, a SFN-dependent zinc release from Keap1, the negative regulator of nrf2, has been described. This raises the question whether SFN is able to interfere with other zinc binding structures as well, for example those essential for DNA repair. Within this study, a SFN-induced deliberation of zinc from a synthesized peptide resembling the zinc binding domain of the xeroderma pigmentosum A (XPA) protein was observed starting at 50 μM SFN. Since XPA is absolutely required for nucleotide excision repair, the impact of SFN on the repair of (+)-anti-benzo[a]pyrene 7,8-diol-9,10-epoxide ((+)-anti-BPDE)-induced DNA adducts in HCT 116 cells was investigated. While preincubation with SFN did not affect initial lesion levels, a dose-dependent repair inhibition of (+)-anti-BPDE-induced DNA damage during the first 12 h after lesion induction was observed, starting at 1 μM SFN. In contrast, the later phase of DNA repair was not impaired by SFN. In support of an inactivation of XPA also in cells, SFN increased the (+)-anti-BPDE-induced cytotoxicity XPA dependently in XP12RO cells. Comparison of p53-proficient and p53-deficient cells revealed no difference in SFN-induced DNA repair inhibition, indicating that p53 is no cellular target of SFN. Since DNA repair processes are required to maintain DNA integrity, the presented data suggest a potential impairment of genomic stability by SFN.

Measurement of translesion synthesis by fluorescent capillary electrophoresis: 7,8-dihydro-8-oxodeoxyguanosine bypass modulation by natural products. Anal Biochem 2013; 440:23-31.

Abstract
Translesion synthesis (TLS) relies on a series of specialized DNA polymerases able to insert a base either correctly or incorrectly opposite a lesion on a DNA template strand during replication or post-repair synthesis. To measure the correct or mutagenic outcome of 7,8-dihydro-8-oxodeoxyguanosine (8-oxodG) bypass by TLS DNA polymerases, a capillary electrophoresis (CE) method with fluorescent label has been developed. Two oligonucleotides were designed and hybridized: (i) a 72-mer oligonucleotide framing one 8-oxodG at position 40 and (ii) the 39-mer oligonucleotide complementary to the first strand from the 3' end to the lesion and labeled at the 5' end with a fluorochrome. After incubation with FHs 74 Int human intestinal epithelial cell nuclear proteins, in the presence of either deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) or deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP), and denaturation, the resulting elongated oligomers were analyzed by fluorescent capillary electrophoresis. This primer extension assay was then validated in terms of linearity (linear range=0.5-2.5 nM), detectability (limits of detection and quantification=0.023 and 0.091 nM, respectively), and precision (total precisions=8.1% and 3.7% for dATP and dCTP, respectively, n=9). The addition of some natural phytochemicals to the reaction mix significantly influences the outcome of TLS either in an error-free way or in a mutagenic way.

Abstract
Trans-lesion DNA synthesis (TLS) is a DNA damage-tolerance mechanism that uses low-fidelity DNA polymerases to replicate damaged DNA. The inherited cancer-propensity syndrome xeroderma pigmentosum variant (XPV) results from error-prone TLS of UV-damaged DNA. TLS is initiated when the Rad6/Rad18 complex monoubiquitinates proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), but the basis for recruitment of Rad18 to PCNA is not completely understood. Here, we show that Rad18 is targeted to PCNA by DNA polymerase eta (Polη), the XPV gene product that is mutated in XPV patients. The C-terminal domain of Polη binds to both Rad18 and PCNA and promotes PCNA monoubiquitination, a function unique to Polη among Y-family TLS polymerases and dissociable from its catalytic activity. Importantly, XPV cells expressing full-length catalytically-inactive Polη exhibit increased recruitment of other error-prone TLS polymerases (Polκ and Polι) after UV irradiation. These results define a novel non-catalytic role for Polη in promoting PCNA monoubiquitination and provide a new potential mechanism for mutagenesis and genome instability in XPV individuals.

Abstract
DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) are covalent linkages between two strands of DNA, and their presence interferes with essential metabolic processes such as transcription and replication. These lesions are extremely toxic, and their repair is essential for genome stability and cell survival. In this review, we will discuss how the removal of ICLs requires interplay between multiple genome maintenance pathways and can occur in the absence of replication (replication-independent ICL repair) or during S phase (replication-coupled ICL repair), the latter being the predominant pathway used in mammalian cells. It is now well recognized that translesion DNA synthesis (TLS), especially through the activities of REV1 and DNA polymerase zeta (Polζ), is necessary for both ICL repair pathways operating throughout the cell cycle. Recent studies suggest that the convergence of two replication forks upon an ICL initiates a cascade of events including unhooking of the lesion through the actions of structure-specific endonucleases, thereby creating a DNA double-stranded break (DSB). TLS across the unhooked lesion is necessary for restoring the sister chromatid before homologous recombination repair. Biochemical and genetic studies implicate REV1 and Polζ as being essential for performing lesion bypass across the unhooked crosslink, and this step appears to be important for subsequent events to repair the intermediate DSB. The potential role of Fanconi anemia pathway in the regulation of REV1 and Polζ-dependent TLS and the involvement of additional polymerases, including DNA polymerases kappa, nu, and theta, in the repair of ICLs is also discussed in this review.

Abstract
Replicative polymerases (Pols) arrest at damaged DNA nucleotides, which induces ubiquitination of the DNA sliding clamp PCNA (PCNA-Ub) and DNA damage signaling. PCNA-Ub is associated with the recruitment or activation of translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases of the Y family that can bypass the lesions, thereby rescuing replication and preventing replication fork collapse and consequent formation of double-strand DNA breaks. Here, we have used gene-targeted mouse embryonic fibroblasts to perform a comprehensive study of the in vivo roles of PCNA-Ub and of the Y family TLS Pols η, ι, κ, Rev1 and the B family TLS Polζ in TLS and in the suppression of DNA damage signaling and genome instability after exposure to UV light. Our data indicate that TLS Pols ι and κ and the N-terminal BRCT domain of Rev1, that previously was implicated in the regulation of TLS, play minor roles in TLS of DNA photoproducts. PCNA-Ub is critical for an early TLS pathway that replicates both strongly helix-distorting (6-4) pyrimidine-pyrimidone ((6-4)PP) and mildly distorting cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) photoproducts. The role of Polη is mainly restricted to early TLS of CPD photoproducts, whereas Rev1 and, in particular, Polζ are essential for the bypass of (6-4)PP photoproducts, both early and late after exposure. Thus, structurally distinct photoproducts at the mammalian genome are bypassed by different TLS Pols in temporally different, PCNA-Ub-dependent and independent fashions.
