Mathematical modeling of recombination repair mechanism for double strand DNA breaks in Escherichia coli bacterial cells Alaa Mohamed Researcher Assistant, Nano Science and Technology Center, Nile University, Cairo, Egypt. Under the supervision of: Dr. Oleg V. Belov Deputy Head of the Radiobiology Department, Laboratory of Radiation Biology,Joint Institute for Nuclear Research
The Project of LRB Mathematical modeling of repair systems in living organisms Dr. Oleg Belov, Laboratory of Radiation Biology
The Project’s aim Ionizing radiation
Induced DNA damages by ionizing radiation DNA Damages DNA Repair Base excision repair Nucleotide excision repair Mismatch repair Recombination repair SOS repair • Single-strand breaks • Base damages • Sugar damages • Double-strand breaks • Clustered DNA damages
The Project We quantitatively modeled the recombination repair mechanism for DNA double strands breaks, induced by ionization radiation, in Escherichia coli bacterial cells
3. Parameters / Variables • dsDNA • RecBCD • ssDNA tail • Complex • RecA • D-Loop • Holiday Junction • Repaired DNA
4. Output • All reactions were simulated using Mathematica software, using two approaches: • Stochastic approach • Deterministic approach • Outputs we obtained, characterized DNA repair steps as well as enzymes’ concentration changes.

Conclusion • Determined the key processes making the main contribution to the functioning of DNA recombination repair system • Developed a phenomenological model for DNA recombination repair system • Constructed a mathematical model for the DNA recombination repair system using the deterministic and stochastic approaches • Obtained and analyzed solutions for the proposed model
Future tasks • Development of mathematical models for other DNA repair systems. • Development of mutagenesis model for damages induced by ionization radiationsin Escherichia coli bacteria.
