E N D
Depurination • Release of adenine or guanine bases
Deamination • Often converts cytosine to uracil
Pyrimidine Dimers • Linkage of adjacent pyrimidine bases
Summary Of DNA Damage • hydrolysis (including depurinations and deaminations) • oxidation • methylation
Base Excision Repair • Remove damaged base using DNA glycosylase • Cut phosphodiester backbone • Fill in gap
Nucleotide Excision Repair Multienzyme complex • Recognizes bulky lesion • Cuts phosphodiester backbone
Repair of Double Strand Breaks • NHEJ: Ligation of broken ends with loss of sequence • HR: Undamaged homologous chromosome as template
Diseases Of DNA Repair Disease Defective Process Effect Xeroderma pigmentosum Nucleotide excision repair UV sensitivity, skin cancer BRCA-1, BRCA-2 Repair by homologous recombination Breast and ovarian cancer Hereditary nonpolyposis colon cancer Mismatch repair Colon cancer
