Abstract
Transcription-coupled repair (TCR) and global genomic repair (GGR) are two subpathways of nucleotide excision repair (NER). The TFIIH subunit Tfb1 contains a Pleckstrin homology domain (PHD), which was shown to interact with one PHD-binding segment (PB) of Rad4 and two PHD-binding segments (PB1 and PB2) of Rad2 in vitro. Whether and how the different Rad2 and Rad4 PBs interact with the same Tfb1 PHD, and whether and how they affect TCR and GGR within the cell remain mysterious. We found that Rad4 PB constitutively interacts with Tfb1 PHD, and the two proteins may function within one module for damage recognition in TCR and GGR. Rad2 PB1 protects Tfb1 from degradation and interacts with Tfb1 PHD at a basal level, presumably within transcription preinitiation complexes when NER is inactive. During a late step of NER, the interaction between Rad2 PB1 and Tfb1 PHD augments, enabling efficient TCR and GGR. Rather than interacting with Tfb1 PHD, Rad2 PB2 constrains the basal interaction between Rad2 PB1 and Tfb1 PHD, thereby weakening the protection of Tfb1 from degradation and enabling rapid augmentation of their interactions within TCR and GGR complexes. Our results shed new light on NER mechanisms.

Abstract
The heterodecameric transcription factor IIH (TFIIH) functions in multiple cellular processes, foremost in nucleotide excision repair (NER) and transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II. TFIIH is essential for life and hereditary mutations in TFIIH cause the devastating human syndromes xeroderma pigmentosum, Cockayne syndrome or trichothiodystrophy, or combinations of these. In NER, TFIIH binds to DNA after DNA damage is detected and, using its translocase and helicase subunits XPB and XPD, opens up the DNA and checks for the presence of DNA damage. This central activity leads to dual incision and removal of the DNA strand containing the damage, after which the resulting DNA gap is restored. In this review, we discuss new structural and mechanistic insights into the central function of TFIIH in NER. Moreover, we provide an elaborate overview of all currently known patients and diseases associated with inherited TFIIH mutations and describe how our understanding of TFIIH function in NER and transcription can explain the different disease features caused by TFIIH deficiency.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a central DNA repair pathway responsible for removing a wide variety of DNA-distorting lesions from the genome. The highly choreographed cascade of core NER reactions requires more than 30 polypeptides. The xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) protein plays an essential role in the NER process. XPA interacts with almost all NER participants and organizes the correct NER repair complex. In the absence of XPA's scaffolding function, no repair process occurs. In this review, we briefly summarize our current knowledge about the XPA protein structure and analyze the formation of contact with its protein partners during NER complex assembling. We focus on different ways of regulation of the XPA protein's activity and expression and pay special attention to the network of post-translational modifications. We also discuss the data that is not in line with the currently accepted hypothesis about the functioning of the XPA protein.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a major pathway to deal with bulky adducts induced by various environmental toxins in all cellular organisms. The two sub-pathways of NER, global genome repair (GGR) and transcription-coupled repair (TCR), differ in the damage recognition modes. In this review, we describe the molecular mechanism of NER in mammalian cells, especially the details of damage recognition steps in both sub-pathways. We also introduce new sequencing methods for genome-wide mapping of NER, as well as recent advances about NER in chromatin by these methods. Finally, the roles of NER factors in repairing oxidative damages and resolving R-loops are discussed.

Abstract
Drosophila melanogaster has been extensively used as a model system to study ionizing radiation and chemical-induced mutagenesis, double-strand break repair, and recombination. However, there are only limited studies on nucleotide excision repair in this important model organism. An early study reported that Drosophila lacks the transcription-coupled repair (TCR) form of nucleotide excision repair. This conclusion was seemingly supported by the Drosophila genome sequencing project, which revealed that Drosophila lacks a homolog to CSB, which is known to be required for TCR in mammals and yeasts. However, by using excision repair sequencing (XR-seq) genome-wide repair mapping technology, we recently found that the Drosophila S2 cell line performs TCR comparable to human cells. Here, we have extended this work to Drosophila at all its developmental stages. We find TCR takes place throughout the life cycle of the organism. Moreover, we find that in contrast to humans and other multicellular organisms previously studied, the XPC repair factor is required for both global and transcription-coupled repair in Drosophila.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes a wide range of DNA lesions, including UV-induced photoproducts and bulky base adducts. XPA is an essential protein in eukaryotic NER, although reports about its stoichiometry and role in damage recognition are controversial. Here, by PeakForce Tapping atomic force microscopy, we show that human XPA binds and bends DNA by ∼60° as a monomer. Furthermore, we observe XPA specificity for the helix-distorting base adduct N-(2'-deoxyguanosin-8-yl)-2-acetylaminofluorene over non-damaged dsDNA. Moreover, single molecule fluorescence microscopy reveals that DNA-bound XPA exhibits multiple modes of linear diffusion between paused phases. The presence of DNA damage increases the frequency of pausing. Truncated XPA, lacking the intrinsically disordered N- and C-termini, loses specificity for DNA lesions and shows less pausing on damaged DNA. Our data are consistent with a working model in which monomeric XPA bends DNA, displays episodic phases of linear diffusion along DNA, and pauses in response to DNA damage.

Abstract
Aim: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disease in pathogenesis and response to therapy. Nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway has a major role in the elimination of genotoxic effects of chemotherapeutic agents. We aimed to clarify the effects of selected variants of XPD, XPC, ERCC5 and ERCC1 genes on the outcomes of induction therapy. Materials & methods: The prevalence of NER genetic variants was evaluated in 67 subjects with AML and their effects on clinical outcomes were analyzed by χ2 test. Results: The XPD 751 Lys variant was associated with improved response to chemotherapy compared with XPD 751 Gln and Lys/Gln variants (p = 0.023; odds ratio: 4.5; 95% CI: 1.14-17.73). There were no associations between other genotypes and any outcomes. Conclusion: Current findings suggest that XPD Lys751Gln variant could be considered as a prognostic factor in AML.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) removes many different types of DNA lesions, and NER related host factors are reported to aid recovery steps during viral integration. Here, we report the identification and characterization of a DNA repair gene Rad23 from Litopenaeus vannamei and explore its role in innate immunity of crustaceans. LvRad23 contains a1149 bp open reading frame (ORF) which encodes a 382 amino acids protein with predicted theoretical isoelectric point of 4.21. LvRad23 was ubiquitously expressed in the muscle, eyestalk, gill, stomach, heart, legs, intestine, and hepatopancreas in order from high to low and LvRad23 protein was showed to be located in the cytoplasm of Drosophila S2 cells. The homology analysis showed that it has a high sequence homology with Rad23 protein from Marsupenaeus japonicus. Vibrio alginolyticus challenge induced a remarkable up-regulation of LvRad23 mRNA in hepatopancreas. Knocking down LvRad23can interfere the NER pathway by down regulating the expression of replication protein A (RPA) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). However it didn't cause any significant difference on total hemocyte count (THC) between LvRad23-silenced and non-silenced group.LvRad23-silenced then challenge with V. alginolyticus inducing high level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage in hemolymph. As well as decreased THC, which seriously diminished the innate immune system of L. vannamei. Meanwhile, the NER pathway was reactived by enhancing the expression of LvRad23 and promoting the production of LvPCNA to resist apoptosis and maintain proliferation of hemolymph cells in the later stage. Our results suggest that LvRad23 plays a vital role in shrimp specific immune response to V. alginolytcus through its participation in NER pathway.

Analysis of DNA binding by human factor xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group A (XPA) provides insight into its interactions with nucleotide excision repair substrates. J Biol Chem 2017; 292:16847-16857.

Abstract
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) complementation group A (XPA) is an essential scaffolding protein in the multiprotein nucleotide excision repair (NER) machinery. The interaction of XPA with DNA is a core function of this protein; a number of mutations in the DNA-binding domain (DBD) are associated with XP disease. Although structures of the central globular domain of human XPA and data on binding of DNA substrates have been reported, the structural basis for XPA's DNA-binding activity remains unknown. X-ray crystal structures of the central globular domain of yeast XPA (Rad14) with lesion-containing DNA duplexes have provided valuable insights, but the DNA substrates used for this study do not correspond to the substrates of XPA as it functions within the NER machinery. To better understand the DNA-binding activity of human XPA in NER, we used NMR to investigate the interaction of its DBD with a range of DNA substrates. We found that XPA binds different single-stranded/double-stranded junction DNA substrates with a common surface. Comparisons of our NMR-based mapping of binding residues with the previously reported Rad14-DNA crystal structures revealed similarities and differences in substrate binding between XPA and Rad14. This includes direct evidence for DNA contacts to the residues extending C-terminally from the globular core, which are lacking in the Rad14 construct. Moreover, mutation of the XPA residue corresponding to Phe-262 in Rad14, previously reported as being critical for DNA binding, had only a moderate effect on the DNA-binding activity of XPA. The DNA-binding properties of several disease-associated mutations in the DBD were investigated. These results suggest that for XPA mutants exhibiting altered DNA-binding properties, a correlation exists between the extent of reduction in DNA-binding affinity and the severity of symptoms in XP patients.

Abstract
The growing incidence of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) necessitates a thorough understanding of its primary risk factors, which include exposure to ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths of sunlight and age. Whereas UV radiation (UVR) has long been known to generate photoproducts in genomic DNA that promote genetic mutations that drive skin carcinogenesis, the mechanism by which age contributes to disease pathogenesis is less understood and has not been sufficiently studied. In this review, we highlight studies that have considered age as a variable in examining DNA damage responses in UV-irradiated skin and then discuss emerging evidence that the reduced production of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) by senescent fibroblasts in the dermis of geriatric skin creates an environment that negatively impacts how epidermal keratinocytes respond to UVR-induced DNA damage. In particular, recent data suggest that two principle components of the cellular response to DNA damage, including nucleotide excision repair and DNA damage checkpoint signaling, are both partially defective in keratinocytes with inactive IGF-1 receptors. Overcoming these tumor-promoting conditions in aged skin may therefore provide a way to lower aging-associated skin cancer risk, and thus we will consider how dermal wounding and related clinical interventions may work to rejuvenate the skin, re-activate IGF-1 signaling, and prevent the initiation of NMSC.

Abstract
The nucleotide excision repair protein complex ERCC1-XPF is required for incision of DNA upstream of DNA damage. Functional studies have provided insights into the binding of ERCC1-XPF to various DNA substrates. However, because no structure for the ERCC1-XPF-DNA complex has been determined, the mechanism of substrate recognition remains elusive. Here we biochemically characterize the substrate preferences of the helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) domains of XPF and ERCC-XPF and show that the binding to single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)/dsDNA junctions is dependent on joint binding to the DNA binding domain of ERCC1 and XPF. We reveal that the homodimeric XPF is able to bind various ssDNA sequences but with a clear preference for guanine-containing substrates. NMR titration experiments and in vitro DNA binding assays also show that, within the heterodimeric ERCC1-XPF complex, XPF specifically recognizes ssDNA. On the other hand, the HhH domain of ERCC1 preferentially binds dsDNA through the hairpin region. The two separate non-overlapping DNA binding domains in the ERCC1-XPF heterodimer jointly bind to an ssDNA/dsDNA substrate and, thereby, at least partially dictate the incision position during damage removal. Based on structural models, NMR titrations, DNA-binding studies, site-directed mutagenesis, charge distribution, and sequence conservation, we propose that the HhH domain of ERCC1 binds to dsDNA upstream of the damage, and XPF binds to the non-damaged strand within a repair bubble.

Abstract
The nucleotide excision repair system removes a wide variety of DNA lesions from the human genome, including photoproducts induced by ultraviolet (UV) wavelengths of sunlight. A defining feature of nucleotide excision repair is its dual incision mechanism, in which two nucleolytic incision events on the damaged strand of DNA at sites bracketing the lesion generate a damage-containing DNA oligonucleotide and a single-stranded DNA gap approximately 30 nucleotides in length. Although the early events of nucleotide excision repair, which include lesion recognition and the dual incisions, have been explored in detail and are reasonably well understood, the fate of the single-stranded DNA gaps and excised oligonucleotide products of repair have not been as extensively examined. In this review, recent findings that address these less-explored aspects of nucleotide excision repair are discussed and support the concept that postincision gap and excised oligonucleotide processing are critical steps in the cellular response to DNA damage induced by UV light and other environmental carcinogens. Defects in these latter stages of repair lead to cell death and other DNA damage signaling responses and may therefore contribute to a number of human disease states associated with exposure to UV wavelengths of sunlight, including skin cancer, aging and autoimmunity.

Abstract
PURPOSE Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the DNA repair genes are believed to contribute to the clinical outcome of patients receiving platinum-based chemotherapy. We investigated the impact of 2 SNPs of excision repair cross-complementation group 1 and 2 of xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group G on the outcome in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. METHODS Between October 2007 and March 2012, we collected 374 blood samples from consecutive patients registered in the TAILOR trial. Four SNPs (rs11615, rs3212986, rs17655, rs1047768) were genotyped using real-time polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS The rs11615 polymorphism was associated with histotype (p = 0.0123). No other correlations were found with clinical variables or with EGFR or KRAS mutational status. None of the SNPs had any impact on overall survival or progression-free survival. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that the investigated SNPs do not make any significant contribution to the outcome of NSCLC.

Abstract
Ultraviolet light damages DNA by converting two adjacent thymines into a thymine dimer which is potentially mutagenic, carcinogenic, or lethal to the organism. This damage is repaired by photolyase and the nucleotide excision repair system in E. coli by nucleotide excision repair in humans. The work leading to these results is presented by Aziz Sancar in his Nobel Lecture.

Abstract
How ubiquitylation of multiple substrates, including repair proteins and histones, is regulated during nucleotide excision repair (NER) has been unclear. Gracheva et al. show that the histone H2A-ubiquitin binding factor ZRF1 is essential in NER as it mediates remodeling of the novel ubiquitin E3 complex responsible for monoubiquitylation of histone H2A at DNA lesion sites. Faithful DNA repair is essential to maintain genome integrity. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation elicits both the recruitment of DNA repair factors and the deposition of histone marks such as monoubiquitylation of histone H2A at lesion sites. Here, we report how a ubiquitin E3 ligase complex specific to DNA repair is remodeled at lesion sites in the global genome nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER) pathway. Monoubiquitylation of histone H2A (H2A-ubiquitin) is catalyzed predominantly by a novel E3 ligase complex consisting of DDB2, DDB1, CUL4B, and RING1B (UV–RING1B complex) that acts early during lesion recognition. The H2A-ubiquitin binding protein ZRF1 mediates remodeling of this E3 ligase complex directly at the DNA lesion site, causing the assembly of the UV–DDB–CUL4A E3 ligase complex (DDB1–DDB2–CUL4A-RBX1). ZRF1 is an essential factor in GG-NER, and its function at damaged chromatin sites is linked to damage recognition factor XPC. Overall, the results shed light on the interplay between epigenetic and DNA repair recognition factors at DNA lesion sites.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a highly versatile and efficient DNA repair process, which is responsible for the removal of a large number of structurally diverse DNA lesions. Its extreme broad substrate specificity ranges from DNA damages formed upon exposure to ultraviolet radiation to numerous bulky DNA adducts induced by mutagenic environmental chemicals and cytotoxic drugs used in chemotherapy. Defective NER leads to serious diseases, such as xeroderma pigmentosum (XP). Eight XP complementation groups are known of which seven (XPA-XPG) are caused by mutations in genes involved in the NER process. The eighth gene, XPV, codes for the DNA polymerase ɳ, which replicates through DNA lesions in a process called translesion synthesis (TLS). Over the past decade, detailed structural information of these DNA repair proteins involved in eukaryotic NER and TLS have emerged. These structures allow us now to understand the molecular mechanism of the NER and TLS processes in quite some detail and we have begun to understand the broad substrate specificity of NER. In this review, we aim to highlight recent advances in the process of damage recognition and repair as well as damage tolerance by the XP proteins.

Abstract
Transcription factor IIH (TFIIH) is essential for both transcription and nucleotide excision repair (NER). DNA lesions are initially detected by NER factors XPC and XPE or stalled RNA polymerases, but only bulky lesions are preferentially repaired by NER. To elucidate substrate specificity in NER, we have prepared homogeneous human ten-subunit TFIIH and its seven-subunit core (Core7) without the CAK module and show that bulky lesions in DNA inhibit the ATPase and helicase activities of both XPB and XPD in Core7 to promote NER, whereas non-genuine NER substrates have no such effect. Moreover, the NER factor XPA activates unwinding of normal DNA by Core7, but inhibits the Core7 helicase activity in the presence of bulky lesions. Finally, the CAK module inhibits DNA binding by TFIIH and thereby enhances XPC-dependent specific recruitment of TFIIH. Our results support a tripartite lesion verification mechanism involving XPC, TFIIH, and XPA for efficient NER.

Abstract
To safeguard the genome from the accumulation of deleterious effects arising from DNA lesions, cells developed several DNA repair mechanisms that remove specific types of damage from the genome. Among them, Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) is unique in its ability to remove a very broad spectrum of lesions, the most important of which include UV-induced damage, bulky chemical adducts and some forms of oxidative damage. Two sub-pathways exist in NER; Transcription-Coupled Repair (TC-NER) removes lesion localized exclusively in transcribed genes while Global Genome Repair (GG-NER) removes lesions elsewhere. In TC- or GG-NER, more than 30 proteins detect, open, incise and resynthesize DNA. Intriguingly, half of them are involved in the detection of DNA damage, implying that this is a crucial repair step requiring a high level of regulation. We review here the complex damage recognition step of GG-NER with a focus on post-translational modifications that help the comings and goings of several protein complexes on the same short damaged DNA locus.

Abstract
Xeroderma pigmentosum factor A (XPA) is one of the key proteins in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) process. The effects of point substitutions in the DNA-binding domain of XPA (positively charged lysine residues replaced by negatively charged glutamate residues: XPA K204E, K179E, K141E, and tandem mutant K141E/K179E) on the interaction of the protein with DNA structures modeling intermediates of the damage recognition and pre-incision stages in NER were analyzed. All these mutations decreased the affinity of the protein to DNA, the effect depending on the substitution and the DNA structure. The mutant as well as wild-type proteins bind with highest efficiency partly open damaged DNA duplex, and the affinity of the mutants to this DNA is reduced in the order: K204E > K179E >> K141E = K141/179E. For all the mutants, decrease in DNA binding efficiency was more pronounced in the case of full duplex and single-stranded DNA than with bubble-DNA structure, the difference between protein affinities to different DNA structures increasing as DNA binding activity of the mutant decreased. No effect of the studied XPA mutations on the location of the protein on the partially open DNA duplex was observed using photoinduced crosslinking with 5-I-dUMP in different positions of the damaged DNA strand. These results combined with earlier published data suggest no direct correlation between DNA binding and activity in NER for these XPA mutants.

Abstract
Electronic waste (e-waste) has created a worldwide environmental and health problem, by generating a diverse group of hazardous compounds such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs). Our previous studies demonstrated that populations from e-waste exposed region have a significantly higher level of chromosomal aberrancy and incidence of DNA damage. In this study, we further demonstrated that various POPs persisted at a significantly higher concentration in the exposed group than those in the unexposed group. The level of reactive oxygen species and micronucleus rate were also significantly elevated in the exposed group. RNA sequencing analysis revealed 31 genes in DNA damage responses and repair pathways that were differentially expressed between the two groups (Log2 ratio >1 or <-1). Our data demonstrated that both females and males of the exposed group have activated a series of DNA damage response genes; however many important DNA repair pathways have been dysregulated. Expressions of NEIL1/3 and RPA3, which are critical in initiating base pair and nucleotide excision repairs respectively, have been downregulated in both females and males of the exposed group. In contrast, expression of RNF8, an E3 ligase involved in an error prone non-homologous end joining repair for DNA double strand break, was upregulated in both genders of the exposed group. The other genes appeared to be differentially expressed only when the males or females of the two groups were compared respectively. Importantly, the expression of cell cycle regulatory gene CDC25A that has been implicated in multiple kinds of malignant transformation was significantly upregulated among the exposed males while downregulated among the exposed females. In conclusion, our studies have demonstrated significant correlations between e-waste disposing and POPs accumulation, DNA lesions and dysregulation of multiple DNA damage repair mechanisms in the residents of the e-waste exposed region.

Abstract
Various DNA repair pathways protect the structural and chemical integrity of the human genome from environmental and endogenous threats. Polymorphisms of genes encoding the proteins involved in DNA repair have been found to be associated with cancer risk and chemotherapeutic response. In this study, we aim to establish the normative frequencies of DNA repair genes in South Indian healthy population and compare with HapMap populations. Genotyping was done on 128 healthy volunteers from South India, and the allele and genotype distributions were established. The minor allele frequency of Xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) G23A, Excision repair cross-complementing 2 (ERCC2)/Xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) Lys751Gln, Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) His46His, XPG Asp1104His, and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg399Gln polymorphisms were 49.2%, 36.3%, 48.0%, 23.0%, and 34.0% respectively. Ethnic variations were observed in the frequency distribution of these polymorphisms between the South Indians and other HapMap populations. The present work forms the groundwork for cancer association studies and biomarker identification for treatment response and prognosis.

Abstract
The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. In this study, two types of DNA binding assays were used for the detailed analysis of interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed that human and yeast orthologs behave similarly in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed using fluorescent depolarization measurements. The XPC-RAD23B and the Rad4-Rad23 proteins bind to the damaged 15 nt bubble-DNA structure mimicking in size the "transcription bubble" DNA intermediate with the highest affinity (KD values ~10(-10) M or less) that is reduced in the following order: damaged bubble > undamaged bubble > damaged duplex > undamaged duplex. The affinity of XPC/Rad4 for various DNAs was shown to correlate with DNA bending angle. The results obtained show clearly that more deviation from regular DNA structure leads to higher XPC/Rad4 affinity.

Abstract
Functional genetic variants of DNA repair genes may alter the host DNA repair capacity, and thus influence efficiency of therapies. We genotyped eight potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes (i.e. ERCC1, XPA, XPC, XPD and XPG) involved in the nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway in 496 Japanese gastric cancer patients, and assessed overall survival and recurrence-free survival. The combined effects of risk genotypes of these eight SNPs in Japanese patients were further replicated in 356 North-American gastric cancer patients. In Japanese patients, we found that the XPC rs2228000 TT genotype was associated with shorter overall survival [hazards ratio (HR) = 1.75, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) = 1.07-2.86] and recurrence-free survival (HR = 2.17, 95% CI = 1.19-3.95), compared with CC/CT genotypes, and the XPG rs17655 CC genotype was associated with shorter overall survival (HR = 1.60, 95% CI = 1.08-2.36), compared with GG/CG genotypes. The number of observed risk genotypes in the combined analysis was associated with shorter overall survival and recurrence-free survival in a dose-response manner (P(trend) = 0.006 and P(trend) < 0.000) in Japanese patients; specifically, compared with those with ≤1 risk genotypes, those with ≥2 risk genotypes showed markedly shorter overall survival (HR = 1.79, 95% CI = 1.18-2.70) and recurrence-free survival (HR = 2.80, 95% CI = 1.66-4.73). The association between ≥2 risk genotypes and shorter overall survival was not significant (HR = 1.26, 95% CI = 0.82-1.94) in North-American patients, but the trends were similar in these two groups of patients. These data show that functional SNPs in NER core genes may impact survival in Japanese gastric cancer patients.

Abstract
The relationship between excision repair cross-complementing group 5 (ERCC5) rs17655 polymorphism and lung cancer risk remains controversial. To clarify the association, we conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis of all published case-control studies. PubMed, Web of Science, and CNKI were searched to identify the possibly eligible publications. Pooled odds ratio (OR) was estimated using the fixed effect model. Q test and I (2) index were used to evaluate heterogeneity between studies, and Egger's and Begg's tests were utilized to assess publication bias. Meta-analysis of nine case-control studies including 4,044 cases and 5,100 controls indicated that there was no global association between rs17655 polymorphism and lung cancer risk. Subgroup analyses according to ethnicity and histologic type revealed similar results. In summary, our meta-analysis suggests that ERCC5 rs17655 polymorphism may not contribute to genetic susceptibility for lung cancer.

Abstract
The human XPC-RAD23B complex and its yeast ortholog, Rad4-Rad23, are the primary initiators of global genome nucleotide excision repair. The interaction of these proteins with damaged DNA was analyzed using model DNA duplexes containing a single fluorescein-substituted dUMP analog as a lesion. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay revealed similarity between human and yeast proteins in DNA binding. Quantitative analyses of XPC/Rad4 binding to the model DNA structures were performed by fluorescent depolarization measurements. XPC-RAD23B and Rad4-Rad23 proteins demonstrate approximately equal binding affinity to the damaged DNA duplex (K(D) ∼ (0.5 ± 0.1) and (0.6 ± 0.3) nM, respectively). Using photoreactive DNA containing 5-iodo-dUMP in defined positions, XPC/Rad4 location on damaged DNA was shown. Under conditions of equimolar binding to DNA both proteins exhibited the highest level of cross-links to 5I-dUMP located exactly opposite the damaged nucleotide. The positioning of the XPC and Rad4 proteins on damaged DNA by photocross-linking footprinting is consistent with x-ray analysis of the Rad4-DNA crystal complex. The identity of the XPC and Rad4 location illustrates the common principles of structure organization of DNA damage-scanning proteins from different Eukarya organisms.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers in the world. The major socio-environmental risk factor involved in the development of lung cancer is cigarette smoking. Additionally, there are multiple genetic factors, which may also play a role in lung cancer risk. Early work focused on the presence of relatively prevalent but low-penetrance alterations in candidate genes leading to increased risk of lung cancer. Development of new technologies such as genomic profiling and genome-wide association studies has been helpful in the detection of new genetic variants likely involved in lung cancer risk. In this review, we discuss the role of multiple genetic variants and review their putative role in the risk of lung cancer. Identifying genetic biomarkers and patterns of genetic risk may be useful in the earlier detection and treatment of lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Besides the primary histone acetyltransferase (HAT)-mediated chromatin remodeling function, co-transcriptional factor, p300, is also known to play a distinct role in DNA repair. However, the exact mechanism of p300 function in DNA repair has remained unclear and difficult to discern due to the phosphorylation and degradation of p300 in response to DNA damage. Here, we have demonstrated that p300 is only degraded in the presence of specific DNA lesions, which are the substrates of nucleotide excision repair (NER) pathway. In contrast, DNA double-strand breaks fail to degrade p300. Degradation is initiated by phosphorylation of p300 at serine 1834, which is catalyzed by the cooperative action of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases and Akt kinases. In depth, functional analysis revealed that (i) p300 and CBP act redundantly in repairing ultraviolet (UV) lesions, (ii) the phosphorylation of p300 at S1834 is critical for efficient removal of UV-induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers and (iii) p300 is recruited to DNA damage sites located within heterochromatin. Taken together, we conclude that phosphorylated p300 initially acetylates histones to relax heterochromatin to allow damage recognition factors access to damage DNA. Thereupon, p300 is promptly degraded to allow the sequential recruitment of downstream repair proteins for successful execution of NER.

Abstract
Background Although numerous studies have investigated the association between DNA repair gene variants and lung cancer risk, the results remain inconclusive and incomplete. Methods We examined variants in seven nucleotide excision repair (NER) and RRM1 genes in association with primary lung cancer risk among 385 patients with newly diagnosed primary non-small cell lung cancer and 208 cancer-free controls collected from 2007 to 2009 in east China. The relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms and risk of lung cancer was assessed by logistic regression and stratification analysis. Results The rs17655GG (ERCC5) and rs5744751CT (POLE) were associated with increased risk of lung cancer (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.32, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.41-3.83; adjusted OR, 2.84, 95% CI, 1.70-4.74]. In stratification analysis, we found the increased effect of rs17655GG on the risk of lung cancer was observed among female, older subjects, or non-smokers. The heterozygote computed tomography (CT) of rs5744751 had a stronger unprotective effect on lung cancer among male, older subjects, or heavy smokers. Conclusion These results suggest that rs17655GG and rs5744751CT may be associated with lung cancer susceptibility in the Chinese population. However, these findings still need to be verified in larger confirmatory studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) protein is essential for the nucleotide excision repair system, and genetic variations in XPG/ERCC5 that affect DNA repair capacity may contribute to the risk of tobacco-induced cancers, including squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN). We investigated the association between XPG/ERCC5 polymorphisms and risk of SCCHN. METHODS We genotyped 12 tagging and potentially functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of XPG/ERCC5 in a case-control study of 1059 non-Hispanic white patients with SCCHN and 1066 cancer-free age- and sex-matched controls, and evaluated their associations with the risk of SCCHN. RESULTS Multivariate logistic regression showed that only an intronic tagging SNP (rs4150351A/C) of XPG/ERCC5 was associated with a decreased risk of SCCHN (adjusted odds ratio=0.76, 95% confidence interval=0.62-0.92 for AC vs. AA; adjusted odds ratio=0.81, 95% confidence interval=0.67-0.98 for AC/CC vs. AA), but this association was nonsignificant after corrections by the permutation test (empirical P=0.105). In the genotype-phenotype correlation analysis using peripheral lymphocytes from 44 patients with SCCHN, we found that rs4150351 AC/CC was associated with a statistically significant increase in the XPG/ERCC5 mRNA expression. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that genetic variation in XPG/ERCC5 may not affect the risk of SCCHN, although rs4150351 C variant genotypes were associated with an increased expression of XPG/ERCC5 mRNA and nonsignificantly decreased risk of SCCHN. Larger population-based and additional functional studies are warranted to validate our findings.

Abstract
A wide range of environmental and carcinogenic agents form bulky lesions on DNA that are removed from the human genome in the form of short, ∼30-nucleotide oligonucleotides by the process of nucleotide excision repair. Although significant insights have been made regarding the mechanisms of damage recognition, dual incisions, and repair resynthesis during nucleotide excision repair, the fate of the dual incision/excision product is unknown. Using excision assays with both mammalian cell-free extract and purified proteins, we unexpectedly discovered that lesion-containing oligonucleotides are released from duplex DNA in complex with the general transcription and repair factor, Transcription Factor IIH (TFIIH). Release of excision products from TFIIH requires ATP but not ATP hydrolysis, and release occurs slowly, with a t(1/2) of 3.3 h. Excised oligonucleotides released from TFIIH then become bound by the single-stranded binding protein Replication Protein A or are targeted by cellular nucleases. These results provide a mechanism for release and an understanding of the initial fate of excised oligonucleotides during nucleotide excision repair.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is one of the major DNA repair pathways in eukaryotic cells counteracting genetic changes caused by DNA damage. NER removes a wide set of structurally diverse lesions such as pyrimidine dimers arising upon UV irradiation and bulky chemical adducts arising upon exposure to carcinogens or chemotherapeutic drugs. NER defects lead to severe diseases including some forms of cancer. In view of the broad substrate specificity of NER, it is of interest to understand how a certain set of proteins recognizes various DNA lesions in the context of a large excess of intact DNA. This review focuses on DNA damage recognition and following stages resulting in preincision complex assembly, the key and still most unclear steps of NER. The major models of primary damage recognition and preincision complex assembly are considered. The contribution of affinity labeling techniques in study of this process is discussed.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a very important defense system against various types of DNA damage, and it is necessary for maintaining genomic stability. The molecular mechanism of NER has been studied in considerable detail, and it has been shown that proper protein-protein interactions among NER factors are critical for efficient repair. A structure-specific endonuclease, XPF-ERCC1, which makes the 5' incision in NER, was shown to interact with a single-stranded DNA binding protein, RPA. However, the biological significance of this interaction was not studied in detail. We used the yeast two-hybrid assay to determine that XPF interacts with the p70 subunit of RPA. To further examine the role of this XPF-p70 interaction, we isolated a p70-interaction-deficient mutant form of XPF that contains a single amino acid substitution in the N-terminus of XPF by the reverse yeast two-hybrid assay using randomly mutagenized XPF. The biochemical properties of this RPA-interaction-deficient mutant XPF-ERCC1 are very similar to those of wild-type XPF-ERCC1 in vitro. Interestingly, expression of this mutated form of XPF in the XPF-deficient Chinese hamster ovary cell line, UV41, only partially restores NER activity and UV resistance in vivo compared to wild-type XPF. We discovered that the RPA-interaction-deficient XPF is not localized in nuclei and the mislocalization of XPF-ERCC1 prevents the complex from functioning in NER.

Abstract
Replication protein A (RPA) is a single-strand DNA-binding protein with essential roles in DNA replication, recombination, and repair. It is necessary for the formation of the preincision complex that is required for proper incision of damaged DNA nucleotides during DNA repair. We have previously identified small molecule inhibitors (SMI) with the ability to disrupt RPA-binding activity to ssDNA. Further characterization of these RPA inhibitors was done using both lung and ovarian cancer cell lines. Lung cancer cell lines showed increased apoptotic cell death following treatment with the SMI MCI13E, with IC(50) values of approximately 5 μmol/L. The ovarian cancer cell line A2780 and the p53-null lung cancer cell line H1299 were particularly sensitive to MCI13E treatment, with IC(50) values less than 3 μmol/L. Furthermore, a cell-cycle effect was observed in lung cancer cell lines that resulted in a lengthening of either G(1) or S-phases of the cell cycle following single-agent treatment. Sequential treatment with MCI13E and cisplatin resulted in synergism. Overall, these data suggest that decreasing DNA-binding activity of RPA via a SMI may disrupt the role of RPA in cell-cycle regulation. Thus, SMIs of RPA hold the potential to be used as single-agent chemotherapeutics or in combination with current chemotherapeutic regimens to increase efficacy.

Abstract
Despite detailed knowledge on the genetic network and biochemical properties of most of the nucleotide excision repair (NER) proteins, cell biological analysis has only recently made it possible to investigate the temporal and spatial organization of NER. In contrast to several other DNA damage response mechanisms that occur in specific subnuclear structures, NER is not confined to nuclear foci, which has severely hampered the analysis of its arrangement in time and space. In this review the recently developed tools to study the dynamic molecular transactions between the NER factors and the chromatin template are summarized. First, different procedures to inflict DNA damage in a part of the cell nucleus are discussed. In addition, technologies to measure protein dynamics of NER factors tagged with the green fluorescent protein (GFP) will be reviewed. Most of the dynamic parameters of GFP-tagged NER factors are deduced from different variants of 'fluorescence recovery after photobleaching' (FRAP) experiments and FRAP analysis procedures will be briefly evaluated. The combination of local damage induction, genetic tagging of repair factors with GFP and microscopy innovations have provided the basis for the determination of NER kinetics within living mammalian cells. These new cell biological approaches have disclosed a highly dynamic arrangement of NER factors that assemble in an orderly fashion on damaged DNA. The spatio-temporal analysis tools developed for the study of NER and the kinetic model derived from these studies can serve as a paradigm for the understanding of other chromatin-associated processes.

Abstract
The interaction of xeroderma pigmentosum group A protein (XPA) and replication protein A (RPA) with damaged DNA in nucleotide excision repair (NER) was studied using model dsDNA and bubble-DNA structure with 5-{3-[6-(carboxyamido-fluoresceinyl)amidocapromoyl]allyl}-dUMP lesions in one strand and containing photoreactive 5-iodo-dUMP residues in defined positions. Interactions of XPA and RPA with damaged and undamaged DNA strands were investigated by DNA–protein photocrosslinking and gel shift analysis. XPA showed two maximums of crosslinking intensities located on the 5′-side from a lesion. RPA mainly localized on undamaged strand of damaged DNA duplex and damaged bubble-DNA structure. These results presented for the first time the direct evidence for the localization of XPA in the 5′-side of the lesion and suggested the key role of XPA orientation in conjunction with RPA binding to undamaged strand for the positioning of the NER preincision complex. The findings supported the mechanism of loading of the heterodimer consisting of excision repair cross-complementing group 1 and xeroderma pigmentosum group F proteins by XPA on the 5′-side from the lesion before damaged strand incision. Importantly, the proper orientation of XPA and RPA in the stage of preincision was achieved in the absence of TFIIH and XPG.

Abstract
Computational modeling and quantitative analysis show that although accumulation of repair complexes can take hours, the individual components rapidly exchange between the nucleoplasm and DNA damage sites. To understand how multiprotein complexes assemble and function on chromatin, we combined quantitative analysis of the mammalian nucleotide excision DNA repair (NER) machinery in living cells with computational modeling. We found that individual NER components exchange within tens of seconds between the bound state in repair complexes and the diffusive state in the nucleoplasm, whereas their net accumulation at repair sites evolves over several hours. Based on these in vivo data, we developed a predictive kinetic model for the assembly and function of repair complexes. DNA repair is orchestrated by the interplay of reversible protein-binding events and progressive enzymatic modifications of the chromatin substrate. We demonstrate that faithful recognition of DNA lesions is time consuming, whereas subsequently, repair complexes form rapidly through random and reversible assembly of NER proteins. Our kinetic analysis of the NER system reveals a fundamental conflict between specificity and efficiency of chromatin-associated protein machineries and shows how a trade off is negotiated through reversibility of protein binding.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the main pathway used for the repair of bulky DNA adducts such as those caused by UV light exposure and the chemotherapeutic drug cisplatin. The xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC)-Rad23B complex is involved in the recognition of these bulky DNA adducts and initiates the global genomic nucleotide excision repair pathway (GG-NER). Photo-cross-linking experiments revealed that the human XPC-Rad23B complex makes direct contact with both the cisplatin-damaged DNA strand and the complementary undamaged strand of a duplex DNA substrate. Coupling photo-cross-linking with denaturation and immunoprecipitation of protein-DNA complexes, we identified the XPC subunit in complex with damaged DNA. While the interaction of the XPC subunit with DNA was direct, studies revealed that although Rad23B was found in complex with DNA, the Rad23B-DNA interaction was largely indirect via its interaction with XPC. Using site specific cross-linking, we determined that the XPC-Rad23B complex is preferentially cross-linked to the damaged DNA when the photoreactive FAP-dCMP (exo-N-{2-[N-(4-azido-2,5-difluoro-3-chloropyridin-6-yl)-3-aminopropionyl]aminoethyl}-2'-deoxycytidine 5'-monophosphate) analogue is located to the 5' side of the cisplatin-DNA adduct. When the FAP-dCMP analogue is located to the 3' side of the adduct, no difference in binding was detected between undamaged and damaged DNA. Collectively, these data suggest a model in which XPC-DNA interactions drive the damage recognition process contacting both the damaged and undamaged DNA strand. Preferential cross-linking 5' of the cisplatin-damaged site suggests that the XPC-Rad23B complex displays orientation specific binding to eventually impart directionality to the downstream binding and incision events relative to the site of DNA damage.

Abstract
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is one of the major DNA repair pathways in eukaryotic cells that counteract the formation of genetic damage. NER removes structurally diverse lesions such as pyrimidine dimers, arising upon UV irradiation, and bulky chemical adducts, arising upon exposure to carcinogens and some chemotherapeutic drugs. NER defects lead to severe diseases, including some forms of cancer. In view of the broad substrate specificity of NER, it is of interest to understand how a certain set of proteins recognizes various DNA lesions in the contest of a large excess of intact DNA. This review focuses on DNA damage recognition, the key and, as yet, most questionable step of NER. Understanding of mechanism of this step of NER may give a key contribution to study of similar processes of DNA damage recognition (base excision repair, mismatch repair) and regulation of assembly of various DNA repair machines. The major models of primary damage recognition and pre-incision complex assembly are considered. The model of a sequential loading of repair proteins on damaged DNA seems most reasonable in the light of the available data. The possible contribution of affinity labeling technique in study of this process is discussed.

Abstract
Replication protein A (RPA) is a heterotrimeric protein complex required for a large number of DNA metabolic processes, including DNA replication and repair. An alternative form of RPA (aRPA) has been described in which the RPA2 subunit (the 32-kDa subunit of RPA and product of the RPA2 gene) of canonical RPA is replaced by a homologous subunit, RPA4. The normal function of aRPA is not known; however, previous studies have shown that it does not support DNA replication in vitro or S-phase progression in vivo. In this work, we show that the RPA4 gene is expressed in normal human tissues and that its expression is decreased in cancerous tissues. To determine whether aRPA plays a role in cellular physiology, we investigated its role in DNA repair. aRPA interacted with both Rad52 and Rad51 and stimulated Rad51 strand exchange. We also showed that, by using a reconstituted reaction, aRPA can support the dual incision/excision reaction of nucleotide excision repair. aRPA is less efficient in nucleotide excision repair than canonical RPA, showing reduced interactions with the repair factor XPA and no stimulation of XPF-ERCC1 endonuclease activity. In contrast, aRPA exhibits higher affinity for damaged DNA than canonical RPA, which may explain its ability to substitute for RPA in the excision step of nucleotide excision repair. Our findings provide the first direct evidence for the function of aRPA in human DNA metabolism and support a model for aRPA functioning in chromosome maintenance functions in nonproliferating cells.

Abstract
Many anticancer drugs target the genomic DNA of cancer cells by generating DNA damage and inducing apoptosis. DNA repair protects cells against DNA damage-induced apoptosis. Although the mechanisms of DNA repair and apoptosis have been extensively studied, the mechanism by which DNA repair prevents DNA damage-induced apoptosis is not fully understood. We studied the role of the antiapoptotic Bcl-x(L) protein in nucleotide excision repair (NER)-facilitated cell protection against cisplatin-induced apoptosis. Using both normal human fibroblasts (NF) and NER-defective xeroderma pigmentosum group A (XPA) and group G (XPG) fibroblasts, we demonstrated that a functional NER is required for cisplatin-induced transcription of the bcl-x(l) gene. The results obtained from our Western blots revealed that the cisplatin treatment led to an increase in the level of Bcl-x(L) protein in NF cells, but a decrease in the level of Bcl-x(L) protein in both XPA and XPG cells. The results of our immunofluorescence staining indicated that a functional NER pathway was required for cisplatin-induced translocation of NF-kappaB p65 from cytoplasm into nucleus, indicative of NF-kappaB activation. Given the important function of NF-kappaB in regulating transcription of the bcl-x(l) gene and the Bcl-x(L) protein in preventing apoptosis, these results suggest that NER may protect cells against cisplatin-induced apoptosis by activating NF-kappaB, which further induces transcription of the bcl-x(l) gene, resulting in an accumulation of Bcl-x(L) protein and activation of the cell survival pathway that leads to increased cell survival under cisplatin treatment.

Abstract
DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs) are among the most cytotoxic types of DNA damage, thus ICL-inducing agents such as psoralen, are clinically useful chemotherapeutics. Psoralen-modified triplex-forming oligonucleotides (TFOs) have been used to target ICLs to specific genomic sites to increase the selectivity of these agents. However, how TFO-directed psoralen ICLs (Tdp-ICLs) are recognized and processed in human cells is unclear. Previously, we reported that two essential nucleotide excision repair (NER) protein complexes, XPA–RPA and XPC–RAD23B, recognized ICLs in vitro, and that cells deficient in the DNA mismatch repair (MMR) complex MutSβ were sensitive to psoralen ICLs. To further investigate the role of MutSβ in ICL repair and the potential interaction between proteins from the MMR and NER pathways on these lesions, we performed electrophoretic mobility-shift assays and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis of MutSβ and NER proteins with Tdp-ICLs. We found that MutSβ bound to Tdp-ICLs with high affinity and specificity in vitro and in vivo, and that MutSβ interacted with XPA–RPA or XPC–RAD23B in recognizing Tdp-ICLs. These data suggest that proteins from the MMR and NER pathways interact in the recognition of ICLs, and provide a mechanistic link by which proteins from multiple repair pathways contribute to ICL repair.

Abstract
Psoralen is a chemotherapeutic agent that acts by producing DNA interstrand crosslinks (ICLs), which are especially cytotoxic and mutagenic because their complex chemical nature makes them difficult to repair. Proteins from multiple repair pathways, including nucleotide excision repair (NER), are involved in their removal in mammalian cells, but the exact nature of their repair is poorly understood. We have shown previously that HMGB1, a protein involved in chromatin structure, transcriptional regulation, and inflammation, can bind cooperatively to triplex-directed psoralen ICLs with RPA, and that mammalian cells lacking HMGB1 are hypersensitive to psoralen ICLs. However, whether this effect is mediated by a role for HMGB1 in DNA damage recognition is still unknown. Given HMGB1's ability to bind to damaged DNA and its interaction with the RPA protein, we hypothesized that HMGB1 works together with the NER damage recognition proteins to aid in the removal of ICLs. We show here that HMGB1 is capable of binding to triplex-directed psoralen ICLs with the dedicated NER damage recognition complex XPC-RAD23B, as well as XPA-RPA, and that they form a higher-order complex on these lesions. In addition, we demonstrate that HMGB1 interacts with XPC-RAD23B and XPA in the absence of DNA. These findings directly demonstrate interactions between HMGB1 and the NER damage recognition proteins, and suggest that HMGB1 may affect ICL repair by enhancing the interactions between NER damage recognition factors.
