8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) is the most abundant oxidative product of DNA and it is also considered to be a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. In this work, a novel biosensor was fabricated by combining the biocompatibility of single-stranded DNA (ss-DNA) and the excellent conductivity of graphene nanosheets (GNs). The biosensor showed high electrocatalytic activity to the oxidation of 8-OH-dG. The sensitivities were 13.23 (±0.03)μA μM(-1), 5.827 (±0.008) μA μM(-1) and 3.086 (±0.005) μA μM(-1) in the concentration ranges of 0.0056-1.155 μM, 1.155-11.655 μM and 11.655-36.155 μM, respectively. The detection limit was 0.875 nM (S/N=3). Furthermore, the electrochemical behavior of 8-OH-dG was also investigated in detail in the presence of uric acid. And the results showed that uric acid had interference with the trace detection of 8-OH-dG. But it can be eliminated completely by uricase. The as-prepared ss-DNA/GNs/GCE will be promising for the detection of 8-OH-dG in real samples.

Large genetic variants can be generated via homologous recombination (HR), such as polymerase theta-mediated end joining (TMEJ) or single-strand annealing (SSA). Given that these HR-based mechanisms leave specific genomic signatures, we developed GDBr, a genomic signature interpretation tool for DNA double-strand break repair mechanisms using high-quality genome assemblies. We applied GDBr to a draft human pangenome reference.

Apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites are endogenous DNA lesions widespread in human cells. Having no nucleobases, they are noncoding and promutagenic. AP site repair is generally initiated through strand incision by AP endonuclease 1 (APE1).

Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer globally, and has recently become the leading cause of cancer-related mortality in women. BC is a heterogeneous disease comprising various histopathological and molecular subtypes with differing levels of malignancy, and each patient has an individual prognosis. Etiology and pathogenesis are complex and involve a considerable number of genetic alterations and dozens of alterations in non-coding RNA expression.

DNA gyrase is a bacterial type IIA topoisomerase that can create temporary double-stranded DNA breaks to regulate DNA topology and an archetypical target of antibiotics. The widely used quinolone class of drugs use a water-metal ion bridge in interacting with the GyrA subunit of DNA gyrase. Zoliflodacin sits in the same pocket as quinolones but interacts with the GyrB subunit and also stabilizes lethal double-stranded DNA breaks.
