Early stages of B and T lymphocyte development are dependent on recombination activating gene (RAG)-induced DSBs that form the basis for further V(D)J recombination. Non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway factors recognize, process, and ligate DSBs. Based on numerous loss-of-function studies, DDR factors were thought to be dispensable for the V(D)J recombination. In particular, mice lacking Mediator of DNA Damage Checkpoint Protein 1 (MDC1) possessed nearly wild-type levels of mature B and T lymphocytes in the spleen, thymus, and bone marrow. NHEJ factor XRCC4-like factor (XLF)/Cernunnos is functionally redundant with ATM, histone H2AX, and p53-binding protein 1 (53BP1) during the lymphocyte development in mice. -

ChandraSekar1 Received: 8 March 2019 /Accepted: 7 May 2019 /Published online: 5 July 2019 # Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) researches have become essential in finding out the congenital relationship of structural deviations with quantitative traits, heritable diseases and physical responsiveness to different medicines. NBN is a protein coding gene (Breast Cancer); Nibrin is used to fix and rebuild the body from damages caused because of strand breaks (both singular and double) associated with protein nibrin. NBN gene was retrieved from dbSNP/NCBI database and investigated using computational SNP analysis tools. The encrypted region in SNPs (exonal SNPs) were analyzed using software tools, SIFT, Provean, Polyphen, INPS, SNAP and Phd-SNP. The 3’ends of SNPs in un-translated region were also investigated to determine the impact of binding. The association of NBN gene polymorphism leads to several diseases was studied. Four SNPs were predicted to be highly damaged in coding regions which are responsible for the diseases such as, Aplastic Anemia, Nijmegan breakage syndrome, Microsephaly normal intelligence, immune deficiency and hereditary cancer predisposing syndrome (clivar). The present study will be helpful in finding the suitable drugs in future for various diseases especially for breast cancer. Keywords NBN . Single nucleotide polymorphism . Double strand breaks . nsSNP . Associated diseases Introduction NBN has a more complex structure due to its interaction with large proteins formed from the ATM gene which is NBN (Nibrin) is a protein coding gene, it is also known as highly essential in identifying damaged strands of DNA NBS1, Cell cycle regulatory Protein P95, is situated on and facilitating their repair [1]. -

Insights Into Regulation of Human RAD51 Nucleoprotein Filament Activity During
Insights into Regulation of Human RAD51 Nucleoprotein Filament Activity During Homologous Recombination Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ravindra Bandara Amunugama, B.S. Biophysics Graduate Program The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Richard Fishel PhD, Advisor Jeffrey Parvin MD PhD Charles Bell PhD Michael Poirier PhD Copyright by Ravindra Bandara Amunugama 2011 ABSTRACT Homologous recombination (HR) is a mechanistically conserved pathway that occurs during meiosis and following the formation of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) induced by exogenous stresses such as ionization radiation. HR is also involved in restoring replication when replication forks have stalled or collapsed. Defective recombination machinery leads to chromosomal instability and predisposition to tumorigenesis. However, unregulated HR repair system also leads to similar outcomes. Fortunately, eukaryotes have evolved elegant HR repair machinery with multiple mediators and regulatory inputs that largely ensures an appropriate outcome. A fundamental step in HR is the homology search and strand exchange catalyzed by the RAD51 recombinase. This process requires the formation of a nucleoprotein filament (NPF) on single-strand DNA (ssDNA). In Chapter 2 of this dissertation I describe work on identification of two residues of human RAD51 (HsRAD51) subunit interface, F129 in the Walker A box and H294 of the L2 ssDNA binding region that are essential residues for salt-induced recombinase activity. Mutation of F129 or H294 leads to loss or reduced DNA induced ATPase activity and formation of a non-functional NPF that eliminates recombinase activity. DNA binding studies indicate that these residues may be essential for sensing the ATP nucleotide for a functional NPF formation. -

MDC1 and RNF8 Function in a Pathway That Directs BRCA1
Research Article 6049 MDC1 and RNF8 function in a pathway that directs BRCA1-dependent localization of PALB2 required for homologous recombination Fan Zhang1, Gregory Bick1, Jung-Young Park1 and Paul R. Andreassen1,2,* 1Division of Experimental Hematology and Cancer Biology, Cincinnati Children’s Research Foundation, Cincinnati, OH 45229, USA 2Department of Pediatrics, University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, OH 45229, USA *Author for correspondence ([email protected]) Accepted 6 September 2012 Journal of Cell Science 125, 6049–6057 ß 2012. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi: 10.1242/jcs.111872 Summary The PALB2 protein is associated with breast cancer susceptibility and Fanconi anemia. Notably, PALB2 is also required for DNA repair by homologous recombination (HR). However, the mechanisms that regulate PALB2, and the functional significance of its interaction with the BRCA1 breast cancer susceptibility protein, are poorly understood. Here, to better understand these processes, we fused PALB2, or the PALB2(L21P) mutant which cannot bind to BRCA1, with the BRCT repeats that are present in, and which localize, BRCA1. Our results yield important insights into the regulation of PALB2 function. Both fusion proteins can bypass BRCA1 to localize to sites of DNA damage. Further, the localized fusion proteins are functional, as determined by their ability to support the assembly of RAD51 foci, even in the absence of the capacity of PALB2 to bind BRCA1. Strikingly, the localized fusion proteins mediate DNA double-strand break (DSB)-initiated HR and resistance to mitomycin C in PALB2-deficient cells. Additionally, we show that the BRCA1–PALB2 heterodimer, rather than the PALB2–PALB2 homodimer, mediates these responses. -
