The nucleoid sedimentation technique is one of the most sensitive methods for measuring DNA excision repair. With this technique, we have shown that both UV- and ionizing radiation-type repair (the latter induced by bleomycin) can be discriminated in HeLa and normal diploid cells using 1-beta-D-arabinofuranosylcytosine. The latter compound inhibits UV-type repair synthesis, and thus causes DNA breaks due to enzymic incision to persist, but has no effect on rejoining DNA after ionizing radiation-type damage. It was then possible to prove that 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide induces both types of lesions which are repaired simultaneously. This effect could be demonstrated in HeLa and normal human diploid cells in a single experimental set-up. 相似文献

Summary Recombinational repair is the means by which DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are repaired in yeast. DNA divergence between chromosomes was shown previously to inhibit repair in diploid G1 cells, resulting in chromosome loss at low nonlethal doses of ionizing radiation. Furthermore, 15–20% divergence prevents meiotic recombination between individual pairs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and S. carlsbergensis chromosomes in an otherwise S. cerevisiae background. Based on analysis of the efficiency of DSB-induced chromosome loss and direct genetic detection of intragenic recombination, we conclude that limited DSB recombinational repair can occur between homoeologous chromosomes. There is no difference in loss between a repair-proficient Pms+ strain and a mismatch repair mutant, pms1. Since DSB recombinational repair is tolerant of diverged DNAs, this type of repair could lead to novel genes and altered chromosomes. The sensitivity to DSB-induced loss of 11 individual yeast artificial chromosomes (YACs) containing mouse or human (chromosome 21 or HeLa) DNA was determined. Recombinational repair between a pair of homologous HeLa YACs appears as efficient as that between homologous yeast chromosomes in that there is no loss at low radiation doses. Single YACs exhibited considerable variation in response, although the response for individual YACs was highly reproducible. Based on the results with the yeast homoeologous chromosomes, we propose that the potential exists for intra- YAC recombinational repair between diverged repeat DNA and that the extent of repair is dependent upon the amount of repeat DNA and the degree of divergence. The sensitivity of YACs containing mammalian DNA to ionizing radiation-induced loss may thus be an indicator of the extent of repeat DNA. 相似文献

Endo-exonucleases (EEs) are nucleolytic enzymes which have been shown to participate in the processes of DNA repair and recombination in eukaryotes. Recently, we have demonstrated that transient expression of Saccharomyces cerevisiae EE NUD1 gene in HeLa cells increased the resistance of the latter to ionizing radiation and cisplatin, suggesting the involvement of the NUD1 gene product in the recombination repair of double-strand breaks (DSB). Here, we report that transient expression of NUD1 results in up to 62% increase in the frequency of homologous recombination between two co-transfected linear plasmids in mouse Ltk- cells. 相似文献

A model is proposed for interpreting the radiosensitivity of yeast cells as a function of linear energy transfer (LET) of ionizing radiation. The model takes into account the role of repair processes in sensitivity of yeast cells to ionizing radiation of different LET. Two types of repair are discussed: (1) a nonspecific repair (characteristic of both haploid and diploid cells), and (2) a diploid-specific repair (characteristic of diploid cells only). 相似文献

DNA repair synthesis in human fibroblasts requires DNA polymerase delta 总被引:34,自引:0,他引:34
When UV-irradiated cultured diploid human fibroblasts were permeabilized with Brij-58 then separated from soluble material by centrifugation, conservative DNA repair synthesis could be restored by a soluble factor obtained from the supernatant of similarly treated HeLa cells. Extensive purification of this factor yielded a 10.2 S, 220,000-dalton polypeptide with the DNA polymerase and 3'- to 5'-exonuclease activities reported for DNA polymerase delta II (Crute, J. J., Wahl, A. F., and Bambara, R. A. (1986) Biochemistry 25, 26-36). Monoclonal antibody to KB cell DNA polymerase alpha, while binding to HeLa DNA polymerase alpha, did not bind to the HeLa DNA polymerase delta. Moreover, at micromolar concentrations N2-(p-n-butylphenyl)-2'-deoxyguanosine 5'-triphosphate (BuPdGTP) and 2-(p-n-butylanilino)-2'-deoxyadenosine 5'-triphosphate (BuAdATP) were potent inhibitors of DNA polymerase alpha, but did not inhibit the DNA polymerase delta. Neither purified DNA polymerase alpha nor beta could promote repair DNA synthesis in the permeabilized cells. Furthermore, under conditions which inhibited purified DNA polymerase alpha by greater than 90%, neither monoclonal antibodies to DNA polymerase alpha, BuPdGTP, nor BuAdATP was able to inhibit significantly the DNA repair synthesis mediated by the DNA polymerase delta. Thus, it appears that a major portion of DNA repair synthesis induced by UV irradiation might be catalyzed by DNA polymerase delta. When xeroderma pigmentosum human diploid fibroblasts were utilized, DNA repair synthesis dependent upon ultraviolet light could be restored by addition of both T4 endonuclease V and DNA polymerase delta, but not by addition of either one alone. This result suggests that cytosol-depleted permeabilized DNA repair-defective human fibroblasts and HeLa DNA polymerase delta might be exploited to provide a functional assay for purifying active DNA repair factors from DNA repair-proficient cells without a preknowledge of their function. 相似文献

Growth parameters of diploid and trisomic human fibroblasts were determined. The rate of growth of both classes of cells was examined in asynchronous cultures, and diploid and trisomic cells had similar growth rates. Synchronous cultures were developed using simple mitotic selection. The patterns and length of the DNA synthetic period (S phase) were found to be altered in trisomy 21 cells when compared to diploid human or to heteroploid HeLa cells. Early S-phase synthesis was absent or reduced and the overall length of the S phase was extended. However, the trisomic cells have apparently normal rates of DNA chain elongation and normal replicon sizes. 相似文献

The exposure to ionizing radiation of radiosensitive mutants of diploid yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae deficient in double-strand break repair results in formation of morphologically unstable colonies. Some characteristics of this process were studied. The results obtained are consistent with the hypothesis on relationship between DNA double-strand breaks or their repair with the formation of unstable clones of diploid yeast cells. 相似文献

The capacity for nucleotide excision repair of a normal (WISH) and three tumour (MCF-7, HeLa, Namalva) cell lines treated with human recombinant interferons (hrIFN-alpha and hrIFN-gamma) was compared by the host cell reactivation assay. The cells were transfected with in vitro UV-damaged plasmid DNA (pEGFP-N1). The repair capacity was determined by measuring the fluorescence intensity of the expressed marker protein in total cell lysates. The correlation between the interferon-induced NO content and the suppressive effect of interferons on DNA repair was shown. The decrease of repair activity and NO induction by hrIFN-alpha were greatest in WISH, followed by MCF-7, Namalva and HeLa cells, whereas hrIFN-gamma was the best NO inducer and inhibitor for the repair of Namalva, followed by WISH, MCF-7 and HeLa cells. Our data clearly show that the two types of interferon have a strong inhibitory effect on the repair of UV-damaged DNA and this effect is cell type-dependent. 相似文献

Most mechanistic studies of repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) produced by in vivo expression of endonucleases have utilized enzymes that produce cohesive-ended DSBs such as HO, I-SceI and EcoRI. We have developed systems for expression of PvuII and EcoRV, nucleases that produce DSBs containing blunt ends, using a modified GAL1 promoter that has reduced basal activity. Expression of PvuII and EcoRV caused growth inhibition and strong cell killing in both haploid and diploid yeast cells. Surprisingly, there was little difference in sensitivities of wildtype cells and mutants defective in homologous recombination, nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ), or both pathways. Physical analysis using standard and pulsed field gel electrophoresis demonstrated time-dependent breakage of chromosomal DNA within cells. Although ionizing radiation-induced DSBs were largely repaired within 4 h, no repair of PvuII-induced breaks could be detected in diploid cells, even after arrest in G2/M. Rare survivors of PvuII expression had an increased frequency of chromosome XII deletions, an indication that a fraction of the induced DSBs could be repaired by an error-prone process. These results indicate that, unlike DSBs with complementary single-stranded DNA overhangs, blunt-ended DSBs in yeast chromosomes are poor substrates for repair by either NHEJ or recombination. 相似文献

8,5'-Cyclopurine-2'-deoxynucleotides, which are strong blocks to mammalian DNA and RNA polymerases, represent a novel class of oxidative DNA lesion in that they are specifically repaired by nucleotide excision repair but not by base excision repair or direct enzymatic reversion. Previous studies using thin layer chromatography of (32)P-postlabeled DNA digests have detected several bulky oxidative lesions of unknown structure, called I-compounds, in DNA from normal mammalian organs. We investigated whether any of these type II I-compounds contained 8,5'-cyclo-2'-deoxyadenosine (cA). Two previously detected type II I-compounds were found to be dinucleotides of the sequence pAp-cAp and pCp-cAp. Furthermore, a modification of the technique resulted in detection of two additional I-compounds, pTp-cAp and pGp-cAp. Each I-compound isolated from neonatal rat liver DNA matched authentic (32)P-labeled cA-containing chromatographic standards under nine different chromatographic conditions. Their levels increased significantly after normal birth. The (32)P-postlabeling technique used here is capable of detecting 1-5 lesions/diploid mammalian cell. Thus, it should now be possible to detect changes of cA levels resulting from low level ionizing radiation and other conditions associated with oxidative stress, and to assess cA levels in tissues from patients with the genetic disease xeroderma pigmentosum who are unable to carry out nucleotide excision repair. 相似文献

Aphidicolin, a potent and specific inhibitor of eukaryotic DNA polymerase α, has been reported to inhibit repair DNA synthesis in ultraviolet-irradiated, normal human fibroblasts but not in HeLa cells. By the use of assays for repair other than the measurement of repair synthesis, it is shown here that repair in HeLa cells is in fact susceptible to aphidicolin. Severe inhibition of DNA repair, with failure of individual repair events to be completed, and a smaller number of lesions removed, can occur even though repair synthesis continues. 相似文献

A marked increase in sensitivity to bleomycin was observed in two ataxia telangiectasia (AT) lymphoblastoid cell lines compared to that in cell lines from two normal individuals. This sensitivity was obtained at two different concentrations of bleomycin. While normal cells showed a rapid recovery of ability to divide, there was no indication of such a recovery in AT cells up to 120 h after bleomycin treatment. A similar level of breakage of DNA occurred in both cell types after incubation with bleomycin. The rate of repair of these breaks was also the same. DNA synthesis was found to be more resistant to bleomycin in AT cells than in control cells. The latter data are in keeping with results previously obtained using ionizing radiation. 相似文献

Background
Major genomic surveillance mechanisms regulated in response to DNA damage exist at the G1/S and G2/M checkpoints. It is presumed that these delays provide time for the repair of damaged DNA. Cells have developed multiple DNA repair pathways to protect themselves from different types of DNA damage. Oxidative DNA damage is processed by the base excision repair (BER) pathway. Little is known about the BER of ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage and putative heterogeneity of BER in the cell cycle context. We measured the activities of three BER enzymes throughout the cell cycle to investigate the cell cycle-specific repair of ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage. We further examined BER activities in G2 arrested human cells after exposure to ionizing radiation.Results
Using an in vitro incision assay involving radiolabeled oligonucleotides with specific DNA lesions, we examined the activities of several BER enzymes in the whole cell extracts prepared from synchronized human HeLa cells irradiated in G1 and G2 phase of the cell cycle. The activities of human endonuclease III (hNTH1), a glycosylase/lyase that removes several damaged bases from DNA including dihydrouracil (DHU), 8-oxoguanine-DNA glycosylase (hOGG1) that recognizes 7,8-dihydro-8-oxo-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxoG) lesion and apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease (hAPE1) that acts on abasic sites including synthetic analog furan were examined.Conclusion
Overall the repair activities of hNTH1 and hAPE1 were higher in the G1 compared to G2 phase of the cell cycle. The percent cleavages of oligonucleotide substrate with furan were greater than substrate with DHU in both G1 and G2 phases. The irradiation of cells enhanced the cleavage of substrates with furan and DHU only in G1 phase. The activity of hOGG1 was much lower and did not vary within the cell cycle. These results demonstrate the cell cycle phase dependence on the BER of ionizing radiation-induced DNA damage. Interestingly no evidence of enhanced BER activities was found in irradiated cells arrested in G2 phase. 相似文献16.
Replicative bypass repair of UV damage to DNA was studied in wide variety of human, mouse and hamster cells in culture. Survival curve analysis revealed that in established cell lines (mouse L, Chinese hamster V79, HeLa S3 and SV40-transformed xeroderma pigmentosum (XP)), post-UV caffeine treatment potentiated cell killing by reducing the extrapolation number and mean lethal UV fluence (Do). In the Do reduction as the result of random inactivation by caffeine of sensitive repair there were marked clonal differences among such cell lines, V79 being most sensitive to caffeine potentiation. However, other diploid cell lines (normal human, excision-defective XP and Syrian hamster) exhibited no obvious reduction in Do by caffeine. In parallel, alkaline sucrose sedimentation results showed that the conversion of initially smaller segments of DNA synthetized after irradiation with 10 J/m2 to high-molecular-weight DNA was inhibited by caffeine in transformed XP cells, but not in the diploid human cell lines. Exceptionall, diploid XP variants had a retarded ability of bypass repair which was drastically prevented by caffeine, so that caffeine enhanced the lethal effect of UV. Neutral CsCl study on the bypass repair mechanism by use of bromodeoxyuridine for DNA synthesis on damaged template suggests that the pyrimidine dimer acts as a block to replication and subsequently it is circumvented presumably by a new process involving replicative bypassing following strand displacement, rather than by gap-filling de novo. This mechanism worked similarly in normal and XP cells, whether or not caffeine was present, indicating that excision of dimer is not always necessary. However, replicative became defective in XP variant and transformed XP cells when caffeine was present. It appears, therefore, that the replicative bypass repair process is either caffeine resistant or sensitive, depending on the cell type used, but not necessarily on the excision repair capability. 相似文献

Human diploid fibroblasts (HDF) can induce DNA synthesis in cycling HDF but not in quiescent HDF or senescent HDF 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

HeLa cells in S phase induce DNA synthesis in cycling cells, serum-deprived quiescent cells, and non-replicative senescent cells following cell fusion. In contrast normal human diploid fibroblasts (HDF) do not induce DNA synthesis in either quiescent cells or senescent cells. Instead, the replicative HDF nuclei are inhibited from entering S phase in heterokaryons formed with these two types of non-replicative cells. These differences in the inducing capabilities of normal HDF and HeLa cells raise the question whether normal HDF in S phase can induce DNA synthesis in cycling cells. This paper demonstrates that young HDF in S phase can induce DNA synthesis in cycling HDF. Thus, the hypothesis that initiation of DNA synthesis in cycling cells is positively controlled by inducer molecules appears to be valid for normal HDF as well as for transformed cells such as HeLa. 相似文献

Summary Haploid and diploid wild type strains, and three classes of radiation-sensitive mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were tested for enhancement of UV-inactivation by caffeine in growth medium. In addition, the sensitizing effect of caffeine was studied in a haploid and a diploid wild type strain after gamma-irradiation. The drug sensitized the UV-irradiated cells of all strains except those reported to be only slightly UV-sensitive but highly sensitive to ionizing radiation. After gamma-irradiation, no caffeine-enhancement of killing was observed in stationary phase cells of either the haploid or the diploid strain. However, log-phase cells of both strains were partially sensitized.The results of both sets of experiments suggested that caffeine interferes with a recombinational repair occurring in cells in S or G2 phase. 相似文献

Cells derived from individuals with ataxia-telangiectasia (AT) are more sensitive to ionizing radiation and radiomimetic drugs, as evidenced by decreased survival and increased chromosome aberrations at mitosis when compared with normal cell lines. Our previous studies showed that, despite similar initial levels of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), AT cells express higher initial chromosome damage than do normal cells as demonstrated by the technique of premature chromosome condensation. However, this finding accounted for only a portion of the increased sensitivity (T. K. Pandita and W. N. Hittelman, Radiat. Res. 130, 94-103, 1992). The purpose of the study reported here was to examine the contribution of DNA and chromosome repair to the radiosensitivity of AT cells. Exponentially growing AT and normal lymphoblastoid cells were fractionated into cell cycle phase-enriched populations by centrifugal elutriation, and their DNA and chromosome repair characteristics were evaluated by DNA neutral filter elution (for DNA DSBs) and by premature chromosome condensation, respectively. AT cells exhibited a reduced fast-repair component in both G1- and G2-phase cells, as observed at the level of both DNA DSBs and the chromosome; however, S-phase cells showed nearly normal DNA DSB repair. The findings that AT cells exhibit an increased level of chromosome damage and a deficiency in the fast component (but not the slow component) of repair suggest that chromatin organization might play a major role in the observed sensitivity of AT cells. When survival was plotted as a function of the residual amount of chromosome damage in G1- and G2- phase cells after 90 min of repair, the curves for normal and AT cells approached each other but did not overlap. These results suggest that, although higher initial levels of chromosome damage and reduced chromosome repair capability can explain much of the radiosensitivity of AT cells, other differences in AT cells must also contribute to their sensitivity phenotype. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to determine whether transformed cells have greater DNA synthesis-inducing ability (DSIA) than normal cells when fused with G1 phase cells. HeLa cells synchronized in G1 phase, prelabeled with large latex beads, were fused separately with (a) quiescent human diploid fibroblasts (HDF), (b) HDF partially synchronized in late G1, and random populations of (c) HeLa, (d) WI-38, (e) SV-40 transformed WI-38, (f) CHO, (g) chemically transformed mouse cells (AKR-MCA), and (h) T98G human glioblastoma cells (all prelabeled with small latex beads) using UV-inactivated Sendai virus. The fusion mixture was incubated with [3H] thymidine, sampled at regular intervals, and processed for radioautography. Among the heterodikaryons, the frequency of those with a labeled and an unlabeled nuclei (L/U) were scored as a function of time after fusion. The faster the induction of DNA synthesis in HeLa G1, the steeper the drop in the L/U class and hence the higher DSIA in the S phase cells. The DSIA, which is indicative of the intracellular levels of the inducers of DNA synthesis, was the highest in HeLa and virally transformed WI-38 cells and the lowest in normal human diploid fibroblasts (HDF) while those of chemically and spontaneously transformed cells are intermediate between these two extremes. Higher level of DNA synthesis inducers appears to be one of the pleotropic effects of transformation by DNA tumor viruses. These studies also revealed that initiation of DNA synthesis per se is regulated by the presence of inducers and not by inhibitors. 相似文献
