(5'S)-8,5'-Cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (S-cdA), which arises from the reaction of the hydroxyl radical (*OH) with 2'-deoxyadenosine in DNA, is a lesion comprising a base-sugar linkage that distorts the DNA backbone. This structure impedes transcription and

Repair of Formamidopyrimidines in DNA Involves Different Glycosylases - Role of the OGG1, NTH1, and NEIL1 Enzymes

2,6-diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyG) and 4,6-diamino-5-formamidopyrimidine (FapyA), are formed abundantly in DNA of cultured cells or tissues exposed to ionizing radiation or to other free radical-generating systems. We show here that FapyG

Oxidative DNA Damage: Induction, Repair and Significance

September 1, 2004

M D. Evans, Miral M. Dizdar, M S. Cooke
The generation of reactive oxygen species may be both beneficial to cells, performing a function in inter- and intra-cellular signaling, and detrimental, modifying cellular bimolecules, accumulation of which has been associated with numerous diseases. Of

Arabidopsis Thaliana Ogg1 Protein Excises 8-Hydroxyguanine and 2,6- Diamino-4-hydroxy-5-formamidopyrimidine from Oxidative Damaged DNA Containing Multiple Lesions

T Morales-Ruiz, M Birincioglu, Pawel Jaruga, H Rodriguez, T. Roldan-Arjona, Miral M. Dizdar
A functional homologue of eukaryotic Ogg1 proteins in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana has recently been cloned, isolated, and characterized [Garcia-Ortiz, M.V., Ariza, R.R., and Roldan-Arjona, T. (2001) Plant Mol. Biol. 47, 795-804]. This enzyme

Identification and Characterization of a Human DNA Glycosylase for Repair of Modified Bases in Oxidatively Damaged DNA

T. K. Hazra, T. Izumi, I Boldough, B Imhoff, Y W. Kow, Pawel Jaruga, Miral M. Dizdar, Somenath Mitra
8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG), ring-opened purines (formamidopyrimidines or Fapys), and other oxidized DNA base lesions generated by reactive oxygen species, are often mutagenic and toxic, and have been implicated in the etiology of many diseases including cancer
