Alternative nucleotide incision repair pathway for oxidative DNA damage

Abstract: The DNA glycosylase pathway, which requires the sequential action of two enzymes for the incision of DNA, presents a serious problem for the efficient repair of oxidative DNA damage, because it generates genotoxic intermediates such as abasic sites and/or blocking 3'-end groups that must be eliminated by additional steps before DNA repair synthesis can be initiated. Besides the logistical problems, biological evidence hints at the existence of an alternative repair pathway. Mutants of Escherichia coli and mice… Show more

“…In other words, for specific types of oxidative damage, APE1 has the ability to cleave the damaged DNA strand in a glycosylase-independent manner. This novel function of APE1 was the driving force behind the development of the alternative BER pathway called nucleotide incision repair (NIR) [41]. Although kinetic data suggest that 5-hydroxy-2'-deoxycytidine (5OH-C) residues are inefficiently repaired by DNA glycosylases NTH1 and NEIL1 coupled with either APE1 3'phosphodiesterase or 3'phosphotase activity, Daviet et.…”

“…However, a direct incision activity immediately 5 0 to oxidized bases was identified in the Endo IV-type AP endonuclease (encoded by the nfo gene) from E. coli as well as a similar activity in budding yeast and human cell extracts (Ischenko and Saparbaev 2002). This incision leaves 3 0 -hydroxyl termini for further DNA synthesis and repair, which was designated as nucleotide incision repair (NIR) by the authors.…”
