DNA repair in chromatin is subject to topological constraints, suggesting a requirement for chromatin modification and remodeling activities. Thymine DNA glycosylase (TDG) initiates repair of G/T and G/U mismatches, commonly associated with CpG islands, by removing thymine and uracil moieties. We report that TDG associates with transcriptional coactivators CBP and p300 and that the resulting complexes are competent for both the excision step of repair and histone acetylation. Furthermore, TDG stimulates CBP transcriptional activity in transfected cells and reciprocally serves as a substrate for CBP/p300 acetylation. Remarkably, this acetylation triggers release of CBP from DNA ternary complexes and also regulates recruitment of repair endonuclease APE. These observations reveal a potential regulatory role for protein acetylation in base mismatch repair and a role for CBP/p300 in maintaining genomic stability.

In patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), the role of 5‑methylcytosine (m5C)‑associated genes in the pathogenesis and development of the disease remains unclear. The present study aimed to identify reliable diagnostic markers based on the expression of m5C‑associated genes for the early detection of IPF. Count data were obtained by screening the IPF genome‑wide assay in the Gene Expression Omnibus database, followed by a comparison of m5C gene expression in patients with IPF and controls.

Prevailing poly(dT)-primed 3' single-cell RNA-seq protocols generate barcoded cDNA fragments containing the reverse transcriptase priming site or in principle the polyadenylation site. Direct sequencing across this site was historically difficult because of DNA sequencing errors induced by the homopolymeric primer at the 'barcode' end. Here, we evaluate the capability of 'avidity base chemistry' DNA sequencing from Element Biosciences to sequence through the primer and enable accurate paired-end read alignment and precise quantification of polyadenylation sites.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the concentration- and size-dependent effects of non-functionalized polystyrene nanoparticles (PS-NPs) of varying diameters (29 nm, 44 nm, and 72 nm) on specific epigenetic modifications and gene expression profiles related to carcinogenesis in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) in vitro. This in vitro human-cell-based model is used to investigate the epigenetic effect of various environmental xenobiotics. PBMCs were exposed to PS-NPs at concentrations ranging from 0.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases 1 and 2 (PARP1 and PARP2) play a key role in DNA repair. As major sensors of DNA damage, they are activated to produce poly(ADP-ribose). PARP1/PARP2 inhibitors have emerged as effective drugs for the treatment of cancers with BRCA deficiencies.

5-Methylcytosine (5mC) is the most significant DNA modification present in mammalian genomes. Understanding the roles of 5mC in diverse biological processes requires quantitative detection at single-base resolution. In this study, we engineered the repressor of the silencing 1 (ROS1) protein derived from to enhance its 5mC glycosylase/lyase activity, resulting in the creation of the engineered ROS1 (eROS1) protein.
