Identifying the mediators of intracellular E. coli inactivation under UVA light: The (photo) Fenton process and singlet oxygen

César Pulgarin, Stefanos Giannakis

Solar disinfection (SODIS) was probed for its underlying mechanism. When Escherichia coli was exposed to UVA irradiation, the dominant solar fraction acting in SODIS process, cells exhibited a shoulder before death ensued. This profile resembles cell killi ...

Allosteric control of type I-A CRISPR-Cas3 complexes and establishment as effective nucleic acid detection and human genome editing tools

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg, Dongchun Ni

Type I CRISPR-Cas systems typically rely on a two-step process to degrade DNA. First, an RNA-guided complex named Cascade identifies the complementary DNA target. The helicase-nuclease fusion enzyme Cas3 is then recruited in trans for processive DNA degrad ...

The makings of TERRA R-loops at chromosome ends

Joachim Lingner, Marianna Feretzaki, Rita Valador Fernandes

Telomeres protect chromosome ends from nucleolytic degradation, uncontrolled recombination by DNA repair enzymes and checkpoint signaling, and they provide mechanisms for their maintenance by semiconservative DNA replication, telomerase and homologous reco ...

Challenging endings: How telomeres prevent fragility

Joachim Lingner, Galina Glousker

It has become apparent that difficulties to replicate telomeres concern not only the very ends of eukaryotic chromosomes. The challenges already start when the replication fork enters the telomeric repeats. The obstacles encountered consist mainly of nonca ...

A Role for Human DNA Polymerase λ in Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres

Joachim Lingner, Liuh-Yow Chen

Telomerase negative cancer cell types use the Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres (ALT) pathway to elongate telomeres ends. Here, we show that silencing human DNA polymerase (Pol λ) in ALT cells represses ALT activity and induces telomeric stress. In addi ...

Relief of ParB autoinhibition by parS DNA catalysis and recycling of ParB by CTP hydrolysis promote bacterial centromere assembly

Paolo De Los Rios, Stefano Zamuner

Three-component ParABS systems are widely distributed factors for plasmid partitioning and chromosome segregation in bacteria. ParB acts as adaptor protein between the 16-base pair centromeric parS DNA sequences and the DNA segregation proteins ParA and Sm ...

Centromeres are dismantled by foundational meiotic proteins Spo11 and Rec8

Eftychia Kyriacou

Meiotic processes are potentially dangerous to genome stability and could be disastrous if activated in proliferative cells. Here we show that two key meiosis-defining proteins, the topoisomerase Spo11 (which forms double-strand breaks) and the meiotic coh ...

m6A methylation potentiates cytosolic dsDNA recognition in a sequence-specific manner

Andrea Ablasser, Muhammet Fatih Gülen

Nucleic acid sensing through pattern recognition receptors is critical for immune recognition of microbial infections. Microbial DNA is frequently methylated at the N-6 position of adenines (m6A), a modification that is rare in mammalian host DNA. We show ...

The human telomeric proteome during telomere replication

Joachim Lingner, Aleksandra Vancevska, Thomas Frédéric Lunardi, Gérald Joseph Paul Lossaint, Chih-Yi Gabriela Lin

Telomere shortening can cause detrimental diseases and contribute to aging. It occurs due to the end replication problem in cells lacking telomerase. Furthermore, recent studies revealed that telomere shortening can be attributed to difficulties of the sem ...

Electronic and structural dynamics in DNA single strands

Benjamin Bauer

The absorption, conversion and transport of electronic energy in molecular aggregates is at the heart of many important natural and artificial photochemical systems, including organic solar cell materials, photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes and DNA ...

Cell-autonomous inflammation of BRCA1-deficient ovarian cancers drives both tumor-intrinsic immunoreactivity and immune resistance via STING

Christian Iseli, Julien Dorier, Mauro Delorenzi, Alizée Jéléna Grimm, Marco Mina, George Coukos, Alexandre Harari, Giovanni Ciriello

In this study, we investigate mechanisms leading to inflammation and immunoreactivity in ovarian tumors with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD). BRCA1 loss is found to lead to transcriptional reprogramming in tumor cells and cell-intrinsic inflammat ...

Requirements for DNA bubble structure for efficient cleavage by helix-two-turn-helix DNA glycosylases

Kristina Makasheva

Oxidative DNA lesions, constantly generated by both endogenous and environmentally induced reactive oxygen species, are removed via the base excision repair pathway. In bacteria, Fpg and Nei DNA glycosylases, belonging to the helix-two-turn-helix (H2TH) st ...
