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

March 19, 2002
Author(s)
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

Chlorella Virus Pyrimidine Dimer Glycosylase Excises Ultraviolet Radiation- and Hydroxyl Radical-Induced Products 4,6-Diamino-5-Formamidopyrimidine and 2,6-Diamino-4-Hydroxy-5-Formamidopyrimidine from DNA

February 1, 2002
Author(s)
Pawel Jaruga, R Jabil, Amanda K. McCullough, H Rodriguez, M Miral Dizdar, R S. Lloyd
A DNA glycosylase specific for UV radiation-induced pyrimidine dimers has been identified from chlorella virus Paramecium bursaria chlorella virus-1. This enzyme (Chlorella virus Pyrimidine dimer glycosylase [cv-pdgl) exhibits a 41% amino acid identity

Determination of Active Site Residues in Escherichia Coli Endonuclease VIII

January 25, 2002
Author(s)
S. M. Burgess, Pawel Jaruga, M L. Dodson, Miral M. Dizdar, R S. Lloyd
Endonuclease VIII from Escherichia coli is a DNA glycosylase/lyase that removes oxidatively damaged bases. EndoVIII is a functional homologue of endonuclease III, but a sequence homologue of formamidopyrimidine DNA glycosylase (Fpg). Using multiple

The Cockayne Syndrome Group B Gene Product is Involved in General Genome Base Excision Repair of 8-hydroxyguanine in DNA

December 7, 2001
Author(s)
J Tuo, M Muftuoglu, C Chen, Pawel Jaruga, R R. Selzer, R M. Brosh, H Rodriguez, Miral M. Dizdar, V. Bohr
Cockayne Syndrome (CS) is a human genetic disorder with two complementation groups, CS-A and CS-B. The CSB gene product is involved in transcription-coupled repair of DNA damage but may participate in other pathways of DNA metabolism. The present study

Mechanisms of Free Radical Damage to DNA

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
M Miral Dizdar
1.1 Reactions of Free Radicals with DNAFree radicals produce a number of lesions in DNA such as base lesions, sugar lesions, DNA-protein cross-links, single-strand breaks, double-strand breaks and abasic sites by a variety of mechanisms (Teoule and Cadet
