Abstract
Objective To investigate the correlation between the ERCC1 and XPF expression and the clinicopathological parameters of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients through assessment of the expression of the DNA repair genes ERCC1 and XPF. Methods ERCC1 and XPF mRNA expression in HCC (n= 177) and adjacent para-cancer tissues (n=21) were assessed by RT-PCR. The correlation between ERCC1 and XPF expression, clinicopathological features and HCC prognosis were compared. Results ERCC1 expression in liver cancer tissues was significantly lower than that of adjacent tissues (9.5% (2/21) vs 38.1% (8/21); P<0.05). The positive expression rates of XPF in liver cancer tissues was lower than that of adjacent tissues (14.3% (3/21) vs 71.4% (15/21); P<0.05). ERCC1 and XPF expression were associated with hepatic capsular invasion and microvascular invasion. HCC patients with hepatic capsular invasion and microvascular tumor embolus formation had significantly lower levels of ERCC1 and XPF mRNA than those without hepatic capsular invasion and microvascular tumor embolus formation (P<0.05). In addition, ERCC1 expression was associated with TNM staging of HCC. The expression of ERCC1 mRNA in patients with stage II and III HCC were lower than that of patients with stage I HCC (P<0.05). The low levels of ERCC1 and XPF mRNA significantly correlated with relapse-free survival times (RFS) in HCC patients. The median RFS of the low ERCC1 expression group and low XPF expression group were shorter than those of the high expression group (15.0 months vs 32.0 months, P<0.05) and (19.0 months vs 33.0 months, P<0.05). The decrease in XPF mRNA expression was significantly associated with the overall survival (OS) of HCC patients. The median OS in the low XPF expression group was shorter than that of the high expression group (46.0 months vs 78.0 months, P<0.05). However, no significant difference in OS between the low ERCC1 expression group and the high ERCC1 expression groups were observed (63.0 months vs 64.0 months, P>0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that tumor size and the extent of differentiation were independent factors affecting the RFS in HCC patients (P<0.05). The extent of differentiation and XPF were independent factors affecting the OS in HCC (P<0.05). Conclusion The expression in ERCC1 and XPF were low in HCC and associated with early relapse after HCC surgery. Low XPF expression may be a potential indicator of a high risk of death.

Abstract
The nucleotide excision repair (NER) system removes a variety of types of helix-distorting lesions from DNA through a dual incision mechanism, in which the damaged nucleotide bases are excised in the form of a small, excised, damage-containing single-stranded DNA oligonucleotide (sedDNA). Damage removal leaves a gap in the DNA template that must then be filled in by the action of a DNA polymerase and ligated to the downstream phosphodiester backbone in the DNA to complete the repair reaction. Defects in damage removal, sedDNA processing, or gap filling have the potential to be mutagenic and lethal to cells, and thus several human pathologies, including cancer and aging, are associated with defects in NER. This review summarizes our current understanding of NER with a focus on the enzymes that excise sedDNAs and restore the duplex DNA to its native state in human cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND DNA repair genes are crucial for maintaining genomic stability by preventing mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. The present retrospective cohort study aimed at investigating whether MLH1, APEX1, MUTYH, OGG1, NUDT1, XRCC5, XPA, and ERCC2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with colorectal cancer (CRC) in Chinese population with Lynch syndrome. METHODS From Amsterdam criteria family registry, we identified 270 patients with Lynch syndrome. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between DNA repair SNPs and CRC were calculated using a weighted Cox proportional hazard regression model. RESULTS Heterozygous variants of rs1799832 in NUDT1 (HR = 2.97, 95% CI = 1.51-5.83) and rs13181 in ERCC2 (HR = 2.69, 95% CI = 1.10-6.55) were significantly associated with an increased risk of CRC compared with wild-type homozygous CC and TT genotypes, respectively. However, the variant CG+GG genotype of MUTYH rs3219489 was associated with a decreased risk of CRC (HR = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.26-0.91) compared with the homozygous CC wild-type counterparts. CONCLUSION Our findings revealed that polymorphisms of DNA repair genes that include NUDT1, ERCC2, and MUTYH are associated with CRC in patients with Lynch syndrome in Chinese population. Further studies with large sample size are needed to confirm our findings.

Analysis of DNA binding by human factor xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XPA) provides insight into its interactions with nucleotide excision repair substrates. J Biol Chem 2017; 292:16847-16857. [PMID: 28860187 DOI: 10.1074/jbc.m117.800078] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2017] [Revised: 08/31/2017] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) complementation group A (XPA) is an essential scaffolding protein in the multiprotein nucleotide excision repair (NER) machinery. The interaction of XPA with DNA is a core function of this protein; a number of mutations in the DNA-binding domain (DBD) are associated with XP disease. Although structures of the central globular domain of human XPA and data on binding of DNA substrates have been reported, the structural basis for XPA's DNA-binding activity remains unknown. X-ray crystal structures of the central globular domain of yeast XPA (Rad14) with lesion-containing DNA duplexes have provided valuable insights, but the DNA substrates used for this study do not correspond to the substrates of XPA as it functions within the NER machinery. To better understand the DNA-binding activity of human XPA in NER, we used NMR to investigate the interaction of its DBD with a range of DNA substrates. We found that XPA binds different single-stranded/double-stranded junction DNA substrates with a common surface. Comparisons of our NMR-based mapping of binding residues with the previously reported Rad14-DNA crystal structures revealed similarities and differences in substrate binding between XPA and Rad14. This includes direct evidence for DNA contacts to the residues extending C-terminally from the globular core, which are lacking in the Rad14 construct. Moreover, mutation of the XPA residue corresponding to Phe-262 in Rad14, previously reported as being critical for DNA binding, had only a moderate effect on the DNA-binding activity of XPA. The DNA-binding properties of several disease-associated mutations in the DBD were investigated. These results suggest that for XPA mutants exhibiting altered DNA-binding properties, a correlation exists between the extent of reduction in DNA-binding affinity and the severity of symptoms in XP patients.

Abstract
The nucleotide excision repair system removes a wide variety of DNA lesions from the human genome, including photoproducts induced by ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths of sunlight. A defining feature of nucleotide excision repair is its dual incision mechanism, in which two nucleolytic incision events on the damaged strand of DNA at sites bracketing the lesion generate a damage-containing DNA oligonucleotide and a single-stranded DNA gap approximately 30 nucleotides in length. Although the early events of nucleotide excision repair, which include lesion recognition and the dual incisions, have been explored in detail and are reasonably well understood, the fate of the single-stranded DNA gaps and excised oligonucleotide products of repair have not been as extensively examined. In this review, recent findings that address these less-explored aspects of nucleotide excision repair are discussed and support the concept that postincision gap and excised oligonucleotide processing are critical steps in the cellular response to DNA damage induced by UV light and other environmental carcinogens. Defects in these latter stages of repair lead to cell death and other DNA damage signaling responses and may therefore contribute to a number of human disease states associated with exposure to UV wavelengths of sunlight, including skin cancer, aging and autoimmunity.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a highly versatile and efficient DNA repair process, which is responsible for the removal of a large number of structurally diverse DNA lesions. Its extreme broad substrate specificity ranges from DNA damages formed upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation to numerous bulky DNA adducts induced by mutagenic environmental chemicals and cytotoxic drugs used in chemotherapy. Defective NER leads to serious diseases, such as xeroderma pigmentosum (XP). Eight XP complementation groups are known of which seven (XPA-XPG) are caused by mutations in genes involved in the NER process. The eighth gene, XPV, codes for the DNA polymerase ɳ, which replicates through DNA lesions in a process called translesion synthesis (TLS). Over the past decade, detailed structural information of these DNA repair proteins involved in eukaryotic NER and TLS have emerged. These structures allow us now to understand the molecular mechanism of the NER and TLS processes in quite some detail and we have begun to understand the broad substrate specificity of NER. In this review, we aim to highlight recent advances in the process of damage recognition and repair as well as damage tolerance by the XP proteins.

Abstract
Characterization of transcription factor-DNA interaction is of high importance in elucidating the molecular mechanisms of gene transcriptions. DNA-based affinity probes were developed to capture and identify transcription factors by covalent crosslinking; however, the requirement of a crosslinker on the affinity probe remains a disadvantage, as the crosslinker itself often interferes with the protein-DNA interactions. We report a dual-probe method able to capture DNA-binding transcription factors with unmodified protein-binding sites in scenarios where conventional probes have failed. We have also shown the method's converse application in selecting specific transcription factor-binding DNA sequences from a probe library and its extension to studying proteins recognizing epigenetic marks. This study may provide a new tool for exploring DNA-binding proteins in biology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE DNA repair pathway genes have been implicated to play an important role in the development of lung cancer. However, contradictory results are often reported by various studies, making it difficult to interpret them. So in this meta-analysis, we have assessed the association between lung cancer risk and two DNA repair pathway genes. XRCC1 and ERCC2, by analyzing 67 published case-control studies. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase and Web of Science using terms "XRCC1" or "XPD" or "ERCC2" and "lung cancer" on August 1, 2012. Three criteria were applied to select included studies for resulting studies. Information was carefully extracted by two investigators independently. We used pooled odds ratio (OR) to assess the effect of a polymorphism, and a dominant model was applied where genotypes that contain the non-reference allele were combined together. All the calculations were performed using STATA version 11.0. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES AND RESULTS Three common nonsynonymous polymorphisms in XRCC1, codon 194, codon 280 and codon 399, and two common nonsynonymous polymorphisms in ERCC2, codon 312 and codon 751, were analyzed. The result showed in total population, Lys751Gln in ERCC2 is associated with an increase of lung cancer risk, with a summary OR as 1.15. No association was found for any other polymorphisms. When studies were stratified by ethnicity, the risk effect of Lys751Gln in ERCC2 was found only in Caucasians, not in Asians. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, Lys751Gln in ERCC2 is associated with lung cancer, and the risk effect probably exists in Caucasians. By contrast, polymorphisms in XRCC1 are less likely to be susceptible to lung cancer risks.

Abstract
The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. The interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA was analyzed using model DNA duplexes containing a single fluorescein-substituted dUMP analog as a lesion. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed similarity between human and yeast proteins in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed by fluorescent depolarization measurements. XPC-RAD23B and Rad4-Rad23 proteins demonstrate approximately equal binding affinity to the damaged DNA duplex (K(D) ∼ (0.5 ± 0.1) and (0.6 ± 0.3) nM, respectively). Using photoreactive DNA containing 5-iodo-dUMP in defined positions, XPC/Rad4 location on damaged DNA was shown. Under conditions of equimolar binding to DNA both proteins exhibited the highest level of cross-links to 5I-dUMP located exactly opposite the damaged nucleotide. The positioning of the XPC and Rad4 proteins on damaged DNA by photocross-linking footprinting is consistent with x-ray analysis of the Rad4-DNA crystal complex. The identity of the XPC and Rad4 location illustrates the common principles of structure organization of DNA damage-scanning proteins from different Eukarya organisms.

Abstract
AIM In our study, we analyzed the allelic frequency of XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism of the XPD gene and the correlation between its variant alleles with colorectal cancer in patients and control groups. BACKGROUND Human cells are routinely exposed to mutagenic and carcinogenic aromatic amines via smoking, pollution areas and other sources. These chemicals can form DNA adducts in vivo and thus lead to DNA damage. Amongst the known genetic polymorphisms of the DNA-repair genes the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD, also known as ERCC2) has been the most extensively studied most commonly. PATIENTS AND METHODS This study has examined the relationship between the XPD Lys 751 Gln polymorphism and colorectal cancer in 88 patients and their 88 age and sex-matched controls. Genomic DNA from peripheral whole blood was extracted using Miller method to determine the genotype of subjects with RFLP-PCR analysis. RESULTS This study shows cancer patients have more of the heterozygous genotype (XPD Lys 751 Gln) compared to control group. However the results are not statistically significant. Furthermore, colorectal cancer was less common in individuals with recessive homozygous genotype (P< 0.0001). CONCLUSION This study suggests that individuals with heterozygous polymorphism (Lys/Gln) may have an increased susceptibility to colorectal cancer compared to other polymorphisms (Lys/Lys and Gln/Gln).

Abstract
Rad14p is a DNA damage recognition factor in nucleotide excision repair. Intriguingly, we show here that Rad14p associates with the promoter of a galactose-inducible GAL1 gene after transcriptional induction in the absence of DNA lesion. Such an association of Rad14p facilitates the recruitment of TBP, TFIIH, and RNA polymerase II to the GAL1 promoter. Furthermore, the association of RNA polymerase II with the GAL1 promoter is significantly decreased in the absence of Rad14p, when the coding sequence was deleted. These results support the role of Rad14p in transcriptional initiation. Consistently, the level of GAL1 mRNA is significantly decreased in the absence of Rad14p. Similar results are also obtained at other galactose-inducible GAL genes such as GAL7 and GAL10. Likewise, Rad14p promotes transcription of other non-GAL genes such as CUP1, CTT1, and STL1 after transcriptional induction. However, the effect of Rad14p on the steady-state levels of transcription of GAL genes or constitutively active genes such as ADH1, PGK1, PYK1, and RPS5 is not observed. Thus, Rad14p promotes initial transcription but does not appear to regulate the steady-state level. Collectively, our results unveil a new role of Rad14p in stimulating transcription in addition to its well-known function in nucleotide excision repair.

Abstract
A wide range of environmental and carcinogenic agents form bulky lesions on DNA that are removed from the human genome in the form of short, ∼30-nucleotide oligonucleotides by the process of nucleotide excision repair. Although significant insights have been made regarding the mechanisms of damage recognition, dual incisions, and repair resynthesis during nucleotide excision repair, the fate of the dual incision/excision product is unknown. Using excision assays with both mammalian cell-free extract and purified proteins, we unexpectedly discovered that lesion-containing oligonucleotides are released from duplex DNA in complex with the general transcription and repair factor, Transcription Factor IIH (TFIIH). Release of excision products from TFIIH requires ATP but not ATP hydrolysis, and release occurs slowly, with a t(1/2) of 3.3 h. Excised oligonucleotides released from TFIIH then become bound by the single-stranded binding protein Replication Protein A or are targeted by cellular nucleases. These results provide a mechanism for release and an understanding of the initial fate of excised oligonucleotides during nucleotide excision repair.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Published data on the association between XPD Lys751Gln and Asp312Asn gene polymorphism and lung cancer risk are inconclusive. METHODS To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, a meta-analysis was performed. RESULTS A total of 22 studies including 15,507 subjects for XPD Lys751Gln genotype and 13,198 subjects for XPD Asp312Asn genotype were examined. For XPD Lys751Gln genotype, significantly increased lung cancer risk was associated with two variant genotypes (CC versus AA: odds ratio [OR] = 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.12-1.42, p = 0.473 for heterogeneity; C allele carriers versus AA: OR = 1.18, 95% CI = 1.08-1.36, p = 0.732 for heterogeneity). When stratified by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found among Caucasians but not in Asians. For XPD Asp312Asn genotype, significantly increased lung cancer risk was associated with two variant genotypes (AA versus GG: OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.09-1.42, p = 0.104 for heterogeneity; the A allele carriers versus GG: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.13-1.57, p = 0.219 for heterogeneity). When stratified analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found among Asians but not in Caucasians. In the subgroup analyses by smoking status, there were no significant associations among the nonsmoker subgroup; however, significantly increased lung cancer risks were found in the smoking group. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that the XPD Lys751Gln and Asp312Asn gene polymorphisms are associated with lung cancer risk, the C allele of XPD Lys751Gln genotype is an increased risk factor for developing lung cancer among Caucasians and in smokers, and the A allele of XPD 312 genotype is also an increased risk factor among Asians and in smokers.

Abstract
The xeroderma pigmentosum group A protein (XPA) is a core component of nucleotide excision repair (NER). To coordinate early stage NER, XPA interacts with various proteins, including replication protein A (RPA), ERCC1, DDB2, and TFIIH, in addition to UV-damaged or chemical carcinogen-damaged DNA. In this study, we investigated the effects of mutations in the RPA binding regions of XPA on XPA function in NER. XPA binds through an N-terminal region to the middle subunit (RPA32) of the RPA heterotrimer and through a central region that overlaps with its damaged DNA binding region to the RPA70 subunit. In cell-free NER assays, an N-terminal deletion mutant of XPA showed loss of binding to RPA32 and reduced DNA repair activity, but it could still bind to UV-damaged DNA and RPA. In contrast, amino acid substitutions in the central region reduced incisions at the damaged site in the cell-free NER assay, and four of these mutants (K141A, T142A, K167A, and K179A) showed reduced binding to RPA70 but normal binding to damaged DNA. Furthermore, mutants that had one of the four aforementioned substitutions and an N-terminal deletion exhibited lower DNA incision activity and binding to RPA than XPA with only one of these substitutions or the deletion. Taken together, these results indicate that XPA interaction with both RPA32 and RPA70 is indispensable for NER reactions.

Abstract
To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between the excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, group 2 (ERCC2) Lys751Gln polymorphism and lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed. A total of 23 studies including 8137 cases and 9824 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Overall, significantly elevated lung cancer risk was associated with ERCC2 Gln allele when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (Lys/Gln versus Lys/Lys: odds ratio (OR)=1.10, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.03-1.19; Gln/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.20, 95% CI=1.06-1.35; dominant model: OR=1.13, 95% CI=1.05-1.20; and recessive model: OR=1.15, 95% CI=1.03-1.29). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risk was only found for Caucasians (Gln/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.25, 95% CI=1.08-1.45; dominant model: OR=1.10, 95% CI=1.00-1.22; and recessive model: OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.06-1.40). When stratified by study design, statistically significantly elevated risks were found in hospital-based studies (Lys/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.12, 95% CI=1.03-1.22; Gln/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.24, 95% CI=1.06-1.44; dominant model: OR=1.15, 95% CI=1.06-1.24; and recessive model: OR=1.19, 95% CI=1.03-1.37) and population-based studies (Gln/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.57, 95% CI=1.12-2.20 and recessive model: OR=1.50, 95% CI=1.08-2.07). In the subgroup analysis whether or not the studies were matched on smoking, significantly increased risk was found not in those matched studies but in the unmatched studies (Lys/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.11, 95% CI=1.03-1.19; Gln/Gln versus Lys/Lys: OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.07-1.40; dominant model: OR=1.13, 95% CI=1.05-1.22; and recessive model: OR=1.18, 95% CI=1.04-1.33). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the ERCC2 Lys751Gln polymorphism may contribute to lung cancer susceptibility among Caucasians.

Abstract
To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) Asp312Asn polymorphism and lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed. PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science were searched. Crude ORs with 95% CIs were used to assess the strength of association between the XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism and lung cancer risk. The pooled ORs were performed with co-dominant model (Asp/Asn vs. Asp/Asp, Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp), dominant model (Asp/Asn + Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp), and recessive model (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp+Asp/Asn), respectively. A total of 18 studies including 7,552 cases and 9,397 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Overall, significantly elevated lung cancer risk was associated with XPD Asn allele when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.158, 95% CI=1.018-1.317; recessive model: OR=1.161, 95% CI=1.029-1.311). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found for both Caucasians (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.164, 95% CI=1.003-1.351; recessive model: OR=1.169, 95% CI=1.016-1.345) and Asians (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=8.056, 95% CI=2.420-26.817; recessive model: OR=7.956, 95% CI=2.391-26.477). When stratified by study design, statistically significantly elevated risk was noted in hospital-based studies (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.315, 95% CI=1.110-1.558; recessive model: OR=1.290, 95% CI=1.099-1.513). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the XPD Asn allele is a low-penetrant risk factor for developing lung cancer.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is one of the major DNA repair pathways in eukaryotic cells that counteract the formation of genetic damage. NER removes structurally diverse lesions such as pyrimidine dimers, arising upon UV irradiation, and bulky chemical adducts, arising upon exposure to carcinogens and some chemotherapeutic drugs. NER defects lead to severe diseases, including some forms of cancer. In view of the broad substrate specificity of NER, it is of interest to understand how a certain set of proteins recognizes various DNA lesions in the contest of a large excess of intact DNA. This review focuses on DNA damage recognition, the key and, as yet, most questionable step of NER. Understanding of mechanism of this step of NER may give a key contribution to study of similar processes of DNA damage recognition (base excision repair, mismatch repair) and regulation of assembly of various DNA repair machines. The major models of primary damage recognition and pre-incision complex assembly are considered. The model of a sequential loading of repair proteins on damaged DNA seems most reasonable in the light of the available data. The possible contribution of affinity labeling technique in study of this process is discussed.

Abstract
Psoralen is a chemotherapeutic agent that acts by producing DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs), which are especially cytotoxic and mutagenic because their complex chemical nature makes them difficult to repair. Proteins from multiple repair pathways, including nucleotide excision repair (NER), are involved in their removal in mammalian cells, but the exact nature of their repair is poorly understood. We have shown previously that HMGB1, a protein involved in chromatin structure, transcriptional regulation, and inflammation, can bind cooperatively to triplex-directed psoralen ICLs with RPA, and that mammalian cells lacking HMGB1 are hypersensitive to psoralen ICLs. However, whether this effect is mediated by a role for HMGB1 in DNA damage recognition is still unknown. Given HMGB1's ability to bind to damaged DNA and its interaction with the RPA protein, we hypothesized that HMGB1 works together with the NER damage recognition proteins to aid in the removal of ICLs. We show here that HMGB1 is capable of binding to triplex-directed psoralen ICLs with the dedicated NER damage recognition complex XPC-RAD23B, as well as XPA-RPA, and that they form a higher-order complex on these lesions. In addition, we demonstrate that HMGB1 interacts with XPC-RAD23B and XPA in the absence of DNA. These findings directly demonstrate interactions between HMGB1 and the NER damage recognition proteins, and suggest that HMGB1 may affect ICL repair by enhancing the interactions between NER damage recognition factors.

Abstract
Baicalin, one kind of Chinese herbal medicine with anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant property, has been commonly used as a clinical medicine. However, little has been known about the effects of Baicalin on ultraviolet (UV) induced photo-aging and photo-carcinogenesis. The photoproduct is critical to the initial event of UV-induced photo-carcinogenesis. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether Baicalin, in immortalized human keratinocyte HaCaT cells, could inhibit ultraviolet-B (UVB) induced skin damage and its possible underlying mechanisms, such as inhibiting UVB-induced cytotoxicity and apoptosis, cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs), down-regulating the expression of regulatory proteins which are related to cell apoptosis and DNA damage/repair. Our study revealed that Baicalin treatment could inhibit the UVB-induced cytotoxicity, apoptosis and CPD level. It also decreased the mRNA expression of apoptosis-regulatory genes (p53-p21 and c-fos), the protein levels of p53, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and repair protein A (RPA), and the secretion of cytokines [interleukin(IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha)]. These results suggested that Baicalin may have an inhibitory effect on the UVB-induced photo-damage by blocking the relevant cytokine secretion and expression of p53-p21, c-fos, PCNA and RPA genes.

Abstract
The interaction of nucleotide excision repair factors--xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C protein in complex with human homolog of yeast Rad23 protein (XPC-HR23B), replication protein A (RPA), and xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A protein (XPA)--with 48-mer DNA duplexes imitating damaged DNA structures was investigated. All studied proteins demonstrated low specificity in binding to damaged DNA compared with undamaged DNA duplexes. RPA stimulates formation of XPC-HR23B complex with DNA, and when XPA and XPC-HR23B are simultaneously present in the reaction mixture a synergistic effect in binding of these proteins to DNA is observed. RPA crosslinks to DNA bearing photoreactive 5I-dUMP residue on one strand and fluorescein-substituted dUMP analog as a lesion in the opposite strand of DNA duplex and also stimulates cross-linking with XPC-HR23B. Therefore, RPA might be one of the main regulation factors at various stages of nucleotide excision repair. The data are in agreement with the cooperative binding model of nucleotide excision repair factors participating in pre-incision complex formation with DNA duplexes bearing damages.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair is a cut-and-patch pathway that eliminates potentially mutagenic DNA lesions caused by ultraviolet light, electrophilic chemicals, oxygen radicals and many other genetic insults. Unlike antigen recognition by the immune system, which employs billions of immunoglobulins and T-cell receptors, the nucleotide excision repair complex relies on just a few generic factors to detect an extremely wide range of DNA adducts. This molecular versatility is achieved by a bipartite strategy initiated by the detection of abnormal strand fluctuations, followed by the localization of injured residues through an enzymatic scanning process coupled to DNA unwinding. The early recognition subunits are able to probe the thermodynamic properties of nucleic acid substrates but avoid direct contacts with chemically altered bases. Only downstream subunits of the bipartite recognition process interact more closely with damaged bases to delineate the sites of DNA incision. Thus, consecutive factors expand the spectrum of deleterious genetic lesions conveyed to DNA repair by detecting distinct molecular features of target substrates.

Abstract
A mathematical model of human nucleotide excision repair was constructed and validated. The model incorporates cooperative damage recognition by RPA, XPA, and XPC followed by three kinetic proofreading steps by the TFIIH transcription/repair factor. The model yields results consistent with experimental data regarding excision rates of UV photoproducts by the reconstituted human excision nuclease system as well as the excision of oligonucleotides from undamaged DNA. The model predicts the effect that changes in the initial concentrations of repair factors have on the excision rate of damaged DNA and provides a testable hypothesis on the biochemical mechanism of cooperativity in protein assembly, suggesting experiments to determine if cooperativity in protein assembly results from an increased association rate or a decreased dissociation rate. Finally, a comparison between the random order assembly with kinetic proofreading model and a sequential assembly model is made. This investigation reveals the advantages of the random order assembly/kinetic proofreading model.

A new assay to probe the mechanism of mammalian nucleotide excision repair (NER) was developed. Photoreactive arylazido analogues of dNMP in DNA were shown to be substrates for the human NER system. Oligonucleotides carrying photoreactive "damages" were prepared using the multi-stage protocol including one-nucleotide gap filling by DNA polymerase beta using photoreactive dCTP or dUTP analogues followed by ligation of the resulting nick. Photoreactive 60-mers were annealed with single-stranded pBluescript II SK (+) and subsequently primer extension reactions were performed. Incubation of HeLa extracts with the plasmids containing photoreactive moieties resulted in an excision pattern typical of NER. DNA duplexes containing photoreactive analogues were used to analyze the interaction of XPC-HR23B, RPA, and XPA with damaged DNA using the photocrosslinking assay. Crosslinking of the XPC-HR23B complex with photoreactive 60-mers resulted in modification of its XPC subunit. RPA crosslinked to ssDNA or mismatched dsDNA more efficiently than to dsDNA, whereas XPA did not show a preference for any of the DNA species. XPC and XPA photocrosslinking to DNA decreased in the presence of Mg(2+) whereas RPA crosslinking to DNA was not sensitive to this cofactor. Our data establish a photocrosslinking assay for the investigation of the damage recognition step in human nucleotide excision repair.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair and reversal of pyrimidine dimers by photolyase (photoreactivation) are two major pathways to remove UV-lesions from DNA. Here, it is discussed how lesions are recognized and removed when the DNA is condensed into nucleosomes. During the recent years it was shown that nucleosomes inhibit photolyase and excision repair in vitro and slow down repair in vivo. The correlation of DNA-repair rates with nucleosome positions in yeast suggests that intrinsic properties of nucleosomes such as mobility and transient unwrapping of nucleosomal DNA facilitate damage recognition. Moreover, it was shown that nucleosome remodeling activities can act on UV-damaged DNA in vitro and facilitate repair suggesting that random remodeling of chromatin might contribute to damage recognition in vivo. Recent work on nucleosome structure and mobility is included to evaluate how nucleosomes accommodate DNA lesions and how nucleosome mobility and remodeling can take place on damaged DNA.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in the XPD and the XPC gene have been associated with a lower DNA repair capacity. We determined the risk of colorectal cancer in association with the four polymorphisms XPA A23G, XPC Lys939Gln, XPD Lys751Gln and XPD Asp312Asn, and interactions between the polymorphisms and the environmental factors: smoking intensity, intake of alcohol, red meat, processed meat, fish and poultry, fruits and vegetables and dietary fibres, in relation to development of colorectal cancer in a study population of 405 colorectal cancer cases and a comparison group of 810 persons, nested within the Danish prospective cohort, Diet, Cancer and Health, of 57053 cohort members. No association was found between the XPC Lys939Gln, XPA A23G, XPD Lys751Gln, and XPD Asp312Asn polymorphisms and risk of colorectal cancer. The association of the XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism was statistically significantly different between genders, with a lower risk of colorectal cancer among women carrying the variant allele. We observed a statistically significant interaction between the XPC Lys939Gln polymorphism and consumption of red meat, with a 3.7-fold increase in colorectal cancer risk per 100g red meat intake per day among carriers of the homozygous variant, but virtually no effect of red meat intake among carriers of the wild type allele. In the light of the multiple comparisons being made, this result may be a chance finding. The results showed no interaction between the XPD Lys751Gln, XPA A23G, and XPD Asp312Asn polymorphisms and the environmental factors for the development of colorectal cancer. Overall, the results of the present study indicate that the four polymorphisms are not of major importance in colorectal cancer carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Interaction of nucleotide excision repair factors--replication protein A (RPA) and Xeroderma pigmentosum complementing group A protein (XPA)--with DNA structures containing nucleotides with bulky photoreactive groups imitating damaged nucleotides was investigated. Efficiency of photoaffinity modification of two proteins by photoreactive DNAs varied depending on DNA structure and type of photoreactive group. The secondary structure of DNA and, first of all, the presence of extended single-stranded parts plays a key role in recognition by RPA. However, it was shown that RPA efficiently interacts with DNA duplex containing a bulky substituent at the 5 -end of a nick. XPA was shown to prefer the nicked DNA; however, this protein was cross-linked with approximately equal efficiency by single-stranded and double-stranded DNA containing a bulky substituent inside the strand. XPA seems to be sensitive not only to the structure of DNA double helix, but also to a bulky group incorporated into DNA. The mechanism of damage recognition in the process of nucleotide excision repair is discussed.

Abstract
DNA-protein crosslinks are relatively common DNA lesions that form during the physiological processing of DNA by replication and recombination proteins, by side reactions of base excision repair enzymes, and by cellular exposure to bifunctional DNA-damaging agents such as platinum compounds. The mechanism by which pathological DNA-protein crosslinks are repaired in humans is not known. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of recognition and repair of protein-DNA and oligopeptide-DNA crosslinks by the human excision nuclease. Under our assay conditions, the human nucleotide excision repair system did not remove a 16-kDa protein crosslinked to DNA at a detectable level. However, 4- and 12-aa-long oligopeptides crosslinked to the DNA backbone were recognized by some of the damage recognition factors of the human excision nuclease with moderate selectivity and were excised from DNA at relatively efficient rates. Our data suggest that, if coupled with proteolytic degradation of the crosslinked protein, the human excision nuclease may be the major enzyme system for eliminating protein-DNA crosslinks from the genome.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) in eukaryotes requires the assembly of a large number of protein factors at the lesion site which then coordinate the dual incision of the damaged DNA strand. However, the manner by which the different protein factors are assembled at the lesion site has remained unclear. Previously, we have shown that in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, NER proteins exist as components of different protein subassemblies: the Rad1-Rad10 nuclease, for example, forms a tight complex with the damage recognition protein Rad14, and the complex of Rad1-Rad10-Rad14 can be purified intact from yeast cells. As the Rad1-Rad10 nuclease shows no specificity for binding UV lesions in DNA, association with Rad14 could provide an effective means for the targeting of Rad1-Rad10 nuclease to damage sites in vivo. To test the validity of this idea, here we identify two rad1 mutations that render yeast cells as UV sensitive as the rad1Delta mutation but which have no effect on the recombination function of Rad1. From our genetic and biochemical studies with these rad1 mutations, we conclude that the ability of Rad1-Rad10 nuclease to associate in a complex with Rad14 is paramount for the targeting of this nuclease to lesion sites in vivo. We discuss the implications of these observations for the means by which the different NER proteins are assembled at the lesion site.

Abstract
Synthetic DNA probes were incubated in human cell extracts to dissect the early step of bulky lesion recognition in the nucleotide excision repair pathway. Excision was induced upon combination of the target adduct with either a two-sided bulge, involving both the damaged sequence and its undamaged partner strand, or a one-sided bulge, affecting exclusively the undamaged complementary sequence. Surprisingly, the same adduct became refractory to repair when only the modified strand was bulged out of the double helix. Adduct removal was further dependent on an intact opposing strand and, at carcinogen-DNA adducts, the assembly of excision complexes was triggered by a single flipped-out deoxyribonucleotide in the complementary sequence. These findings describe a mechanism of molecular readout in DNA repair that, unexpectedly, is entirely confined to the undamaged side of the double helix.

Abstract
The transcription-coupled repair (TCR) pathway preferentially repairs DNA damage located in the transcribed strand of an active gene. To gain insight into the coupling mechanism between transcription and repair, we have set up an in vitro system in which we isolate an elongating RNA pol IIO, which is stalled in front of a cisplatin adduct. This immobilized RNA pol IIO is used as 'bait' to sequentially recruit TFIIH, XPA, RPA, XPG and XPF repair factors in an ATP-dependent manner. This RNA pol IIO/repair complex allows the ATP-dependent removal of the lesion only in the presence of CSB, while the latter does not promote dual incision in an XPC-dependent nucleotide excision repair reaction. In parallel to the dual incision, the repair factors also allow the partial release of RNA pol IIO. In this 'minimal TCR system', the RNA pol IIO can effectively act as a loading point for all the repair factors required to eliminate a transcription-blocking lesion.

Abstract
PURPOSE The fluorinated benzothiazole analogue 2-(4-amino-3-methylphenyl)-5-fluorobenzothiazole (5F 203, NSC 703786) exhibits selective and potent anticancer activity, and its lysylamide prodrug (Phortress, NSC 710305) recently entered Phase I clinical trials in the United Kingdom. Only cancer cells sensitive to the anti-proliferative effects of 5F 203 deplete this drug candidate from nutrient media. 5F 203 induces cell cycle arrest, cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP 1A1) mRNA and protein expression, and is metabolized into reactive electrophilic species that can covalently bind to DNA and form adducts in sensitive (i.e., MCF-7) but not in resistant (i.e., MDA-MB-435) breast cancer cells. METHODS In this present study, we investigated additional anticancer effects of 5F 203 in MCF-7 cells. In addition, we sought to determine if cells deficient in the xeroderma pigmentosum D gene, a gene critical in DNA repair, would show greater sensitivity to the cytotoxic effects of 5F 203 than those complemented with XPD. RESULTS Alkaline Elution revealed that 5F 203 induced single-strand breaks and DNA-protein cross-links in sensitive MCF-7 cells. In contrast, we detected no double-strand breaks or protein-associated strand breaks typically associated with topoisomerase I (top1) or topoisomerase II (top2) inhibition. In addition, 5F 203 was unable to trap top1- or top2-DNA cleavage complexes in MCF-7 cells. 5F 203 induced cell cycle arrest in MCF-7 cells following DNA damage after brief exposures. Cells deficient in the nucleotide excision repair xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) gene displayed sensitivity to 5F 203 while cells complemented with XPD displayed resistance to 5F 203. CONCLUSION These data suggest that the anti-cancer activity of 5F 203 depends upon targets other than top1 or top2 and on the ability of this benzothiazole to form single-strand breaks and DNA-protein cross-links in cancer cells.

Abstract
Mitomycin C (MMC) induces various types of DNA damages that cause significant cytotoxicity to cells. Accordingly, repair of MMC-induced damages involves multiple repair pathways such as nucleotide excision repair, homologous recombination repair and translesion bypass repair pathways. Nonetheless, repair of the MMC-induced DNA damages in mammals have not been fully delineated. In this study, we investigated potential roles for Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) proteins in the repair of MMC-induced DNA damages using an assay that detects the ssDNA patches generated following treatment with MMC or 8'-methoxy-psoralen (8-MOP) + UVA (ultraviolet light A). Human wild-type cells formed distinctive ssDNA foci following treatment with MMC or 8-MOP + UVA, but not with those inducing alkylation damage, oxidative damage or strand-break damage, suggesting that the foci represent ssDNA patches formed during the crosslink repair. In contrast to wild-type cells, mutant defective in XPE orXPG did not form the ssDNA foci following MMC treatment, while XPF mutant cells showed a significantly delayed response in forming the foci. A positive role for XPG in the repair of MMC-induced DNA damages was further supported by observations that cells treated with MMC induced a tight association of XPG with chromatin, and a targeted inhibition of XPG abolished MMC-induced ssDNA foci formation, rendering cells hypersensitive to MMC. Together, our results suggest that XPG along with XPE and XPF play unique role(s) in the repair of MMC-induced DNA damages.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) requires the concerted action of many different proteins that assemble at sites of damaged DNA in a sequential fashion. We have constructed a mathematical model delineating hallmarks and general characteristics for NER. We measured the assembly kinetics of the putative damage-recognition factor XPC-HR23B at sites of DNA damage in the nuclei of living cells. These and other in vivo kinetic data allowed us to scrutinize the dynamic behavior of the nucleotide excision repair process in detail. A sequential assembly mechanism appears remarkably advantageous in terms of repair efficiency. Alternative mechanisms for repairosome formation, including random assembly and preassembly, can readily become kinetically unfavorable. Based on the model, new experiments can be defined to gain further insight into this complex process and to critically test model predictions. Our work provides a kinetic framework for NER and rationalizes why many multiprotein processes within the cell nucleus show sequential assembly strategy.

Abstract
DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) represent a severe form of damage that blocks DNA metabolic processes and can lead to cell death or carcinogenesis. The repair of DNA ICLs in mammals is not well characterized. We have reported previously that a key protein complex of nucleotide excision repair (NER), XPA-RPA, recognizes DNA ICLs. We now report the use of triplex technology to direct a site-specific psoralen ICL to a target DNA substrate to determine whether the human global genome NER damage recognition complex, XPC-hHR23B, recognizes this lesion. Our results demonstrate that XPC-hHR23B recognizes psoralen ICLs, which have a structure fundamentally different from other lesions that XPC-hHR23B is known to bind, with high affinity and specificity. XPC-hHR23B and XPA-RPA protein complexes were also observed to bind psoralen ICLs simultaneously, demonstrating not only that psoralen ICLs are recognized by XPC-hHR23B alone, but also that XPA-RPA may interact cooperatively with XPC-hHR23B on damaged DNA, forming a multimeric complex. Since XPC-hHR23B and XPA-RPA participate in the recognition and verification of DNA damage, these results support the hypothesis that interplay between components of the global genome repair sub-pathway of NER is critical for the recognition of psoralen DNA ICLs in the mammalian genome.

Abstract
Human replication protein A (hRPA), a heterotrimeric single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) binding protein, is required for many cellular pathways including DNA damage repair, recombination, and replication as well as the ATR-mediated DNA damage response. While extensive effort has been devoted to understanding the structural relationships between RPA and ssDNA, information is currently limited to the RPA domains, the trimerization core, and a partial cocrystal structure. In this work, we employed a mass spectrometric protein footprinting method of single amino acid resolution to investigate the interactions of the entire heterotrimeric hRPA with ssDNA. In particular, we monitored surface accessibility of RPA lysines with NHS-biotin modification in the contexts of the free protein and the nucleoprotein complex. Our results not only indicated excellent agreement with the available crystal structure data for RPA70 DBD-AB-ssDNA complex but also revealed new protein contacts in the nucleoprotein complex. In addition to two residues, K263 and K343 of p70, previously identified by cocrystallography as direct DNA contacts, we observed protection of five additional lysines (K183, K259, K489, K577, and K588 of p70) upon ssDNA binding to RPA. Three residues, K489, K577, and K588, are located in ssDNA binding domain C and are likely to establish the direct contacts with cognate DNA. In contrast, no ssDNA-contacting lysines were identified in DBD-D. In addition, two lysines, K183 and K259, are positioned outside the putative ssDNA binding cleft. We propose that the protection of these lysines could result from the RPA interdomain structural reorganization induced by ssDNA binding.

Abstract
Using only a limited repertoire of recognition subunits, the nucleotide excision repair (NER) system is able to detect a nearly infinite variety of bulky DNA lesions. This extraordinary substrate versatility has generally been ascribed to an indirect readout mechanism, whereby particular distortions of the double helix, induced by a damaged nucleotide, provide the molecular determinants not only for lesion recognition but also for subsequent verification or demarcation processes. Here, we discuss the evidence in support of a bipartite mechanism of substrate discrimination that is initiated by the detection of thermodynamically unstable base pairs followed by direct localization of the lesion through an enzymatic proofreading activity. This bipartite discrimination mechanism is part of a dynamic reaction cycle that confers high levels of selectivity to avoid futile repair events on undamaged DNA and also protect the intact complementary strand from inappropriate cleavage.

Abstract
Phenotypic changes in injured livers involve complex network of genes whose interplays may lead to fibrosis and cirrhosis, a major risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. Gene expression profiles in fibrotic livers were analyzed by using cDNA microarray, hierarchical clustering and gene ontology. Analyses of a major cluster of upregulated genes in cirrhosis identified a new set of genes involved in DNA repair and damage. The upregulation of DNA repair genes was confirmed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and associated with necroinflammatory activity (P<0.001). Increased DNA repair activity in cirrhosis with inflammatory activity may reflect increased DNA damages as a consequence of chronic liver injury.

Abstract
Human RPA (replication protein A), a single-stranded DNA-binding protein, is required for many cellular pathways including DNA repair, recombination and replication. However, the role of RPA in nucleotide excision repair remains elusive. In the present study, we have systematically examined the binding of RPA to a battery of well-defined ssDNA (single-stranded DNA) substrates using fluorescence spectroscopy. These substrates contain adducts of (6-4) photoproducts, N-acetyl-2-aminofluorene-, 1-aminopyrene-, BPDE (benzo[a]pyrene diol epoxide)- and fluorescein that are different in many aspects such as molecular structure and size, DNA disruption mode (e.g. base stacking or non-stacking), as well as chemical properties. Our results showed that RPA has a lower binding affinity for damaged ssDNA than for non-damaged ssDNA and that the affinity of RPA for damaged ssDNA depends on the type of adduct. Interestingly, the bulkier lesions have a greater effect. With a fluorescent base-stacking bulky adduct, (+)-cis-anti-BPDE-dG, we demonstrated that, on binding of RPA, the fluorescence of BPDE-ssDNA was significantly enhanced by up to 8-9-fold. This indicated that the stacking between the BPDE adduct and its neighbouring ssDNA bases had been disrupted and there was a lack of substantial direct contacts between the protein residues and the lesion itself. For RPA interaction with short damaged ssDNA, we propose that, on RPA binding, the modified base of ssDNA is looped out from the surface of the protein, permitting proper contacts of RPA with the remaining unmodified bases.

Abstract
Interindividual variation in lung cancer susceptibility may be modulated in part through genetic polymorphisms in the DNA repair genes, especially the genes involved in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. The xeroderma pigmentosum complementary group D (XPD) is one of the NER genes, and two of the XPD polymorphisms 751A --> C and 312G --> A have been extensively studied in the association with lung cancer, although published studies have been inconclusive. To clarify the impact of XPD polymorphisms on lung cancer risk, we performed a meta-analysis of the published data from nine (10 comparisons) individual case-control studies of 3725 lung cancer cases and 4152 controls. The results showed that individuals with the XPD 751CC genotype had a 21% (odds ratio (OR)= 1.21, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.02-1.43) increased risk of lung cancer compared with individuals with the 751AA genotype without any between-study heterogeneity (P = 0.26). There was also a significant association in the recessive model of 751 C allele by comparing the CC with AC + AA genotypes (OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.02-1.40). The results also showed a significantly increased risk of lung cancer associated with the 312AA homozygous genotype compared with the GG genotype and the 312 A allele in the recessive model (compared with GA + AA genotypes) (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.04-1.56 and OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.09-1.59, respectively). These results support the hypothesis that both the XPD 751 C and 312 A are risk alleles and individuals with the XPD 751 CC and 312 AA genotypes are at higher risk of developing lung cancer. Large multi-center studies with precise design, and stratified/adjusted analyses of the gene-gene (haplotypes) and gene-environment interactions are needed.

Abstract
The xeroderma pigmentosum group A protein (XPA) binds to three nucleotide excision repair (NER) factors: RPA, ERCC1, and TFIIH. XPA also binds preferentially to UV- or chemical carcinogen-damaged DNA. In this study, we prepared anti-XPA monoclonal antibodies and examined their effects on NER. Two clones inhibited cell-free NER reactions. The mode of inhibition appeared to differ; one clone inhibited both 5' and 3' incisions equally while the other inhibited the 5' incision more. The two clones inhibited the binding of XPA to RPA, ERCC1, and TFIIH. They did not inhibit the binding to damaged DNA either. These results suggest that the interaction of XPA with these NER factors is essential to the NER pathway. The epitopes of these antibodies were located outside of the binding regions for these NER factors. Steric hindrance or conformational changes of XPA brought about by the binding of anti-XPA IgG possibly cause the inhibitory effects.
