We investigated whether transcription-coupled repair deficient mice (Cockayne syndrome B knockout mice (Csb-/-)), known to be sensitive to oxidative stressors, have a different response to ozone than its repair-proficient control, Csb heterozygote (Csb+/-) mice.

The kinetics of DNA repair and RNA synthesis recovery in human cells following UV-irradiation were assessed using nascent RNA Bru-seq and quantitative long PCR. It was found that UV light inhibited transcription elongation and that recovery of RNA synthesis occurred as a wave in the 5’-3’ direction ...

Drosophila, which Lacks Canonical Transcription-Coupled Repair Proteins, Performs Transcription-Coupled Repair
Transcription-coupled DNA repair (TCR) removes transcription-blocking DNA lesions through the coordinated assembly of repair factors on arrested RNA polymerase II (Pol II). This process requires the site-specific ubiquitylation of Pol II by the CRL4CSA ubiquitin ligase. Pol II ubiquitylation is faci...

Deficient DNA repair capacity is associated with genetic lesions accumulation and susceptibility to carcinogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate various cellular pathways including DNA repair. Here we hypothesized that the existence of HBV products may interfere with ce...

RNA polymerases deal with obstacles during transcription elongation that need to be removed. One important type of hindrance consists of DNA lesions, which are removed by transcription-coupled repair (TCR). To improve our knowledge of transcription elongation and its coupling to TCR, we performed DN...

Here we report our observations that have led us to propose that the transcription elongation factor NusA promotes a novel class of transcription-coupled repair (TCR) in addition to its previously proposed role in recruiting translesion synthesis (TLS) DNA polymerases to gaps encountered during tran...

UV-induced DNA lesions are an important contributor to mutagenesis and cancer, but it is not fully understood how the chromosomal landscape influences UV lesion formation and repair. We have used a novel high-throughput sequencing method to precisely map UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD...

Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a photosensitive, DNA repair disorder associated with progeria caused by a defect in the transcription-coupled repair (TCR) subpathway of nucleotide excision repair (NER). Here, complete inactivation of NER in Csbm/m/Xpa-/- mutants causes a phenotype that reliably mimics th...
