The genetic connections between DNA repair pathways and human cancer predisposition have fueled interest in the proteins that recognize and repair specific sites of DNA damage. The repair enzymes are ...

However, current methods like DNA ligase-linked hydrogels present many challenges, including potential allergic reactions and complex administration procedures that limit clinical applications.

ATP-dependent RNA ligases join 3’-OH and 5’-PO 4 RNA termini via three nucleotidyl transfer steps similar to those of DNA ligases: (Step 1) ligase reacts with ATP to form a covalent ...

During the DNA damage response (DDR), repair proteins such as the E3 ubiquitin ligase BRCA1 accumulate at DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs), and ubiquitylation at these sites helps recruit further ...

Disappearance of SUMO-modified Mdm2, which is observed upon radiation, may thus be a prerequisite for DNA-damage-induced ... makes Mdm2 a better or worse ligase remains a puzzle to be solved.
