To assess the contribution to mutagenesis of human DNA repair defects, the UV-irradiated shuttle vector plasmid pZ189 was propagated in fibroblasts derived from a xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) patient in DNA repair complementation group C. In comparison to results with DNA repair-proficient human cells (WI-38 VA13), UV-irradiated pZ189 propagated in the XP-C (XP4PA(SV)) cells showed fewer surviving plasmids and a higher frequency of mutated plasmids. Base sequence analysis of 67 mutated plasmids recovered from the XP-C cells revealed similar classes of point mutations and mutation spectrum, and a higher frequency of G:C to A:T transitions along with a lower frequency of transversions among plasmids with single or tandem mutations compared to plasmids recovered from the normal line. Most single-base substitution mutations (83%) occurred at G:C base pairs in which the 5'-adjacent base of the cytosine was thymine or cytosine. These results indicate that the DNA repair defects in XP-C, in comparison to data previously reported for XP-A, XP-D and XP-F, result in different UV survival and mutation frequency but in similar types of base substitution mutations.

Sequence Data, Molecular,Molecular Sequencing Data,Data, Molecular Sequence,Data, Molecular Sequencing,Sequencing Data, Molecular
D010957 Plasmids Extrachromosomal, usually CIRCULAR DNA molecules that are self-replicating and transferable from one organism to another. They are found in a variety of bacterial, archaeal, fungal, algal, and plant species. They are used in GENETIC ENGINEERING as CLONING VECTORS. Episomes,Episome,Plasmid
D002460 Cell Line Established cell cultures that have the potential to propagate indefinitely. Cell Lines,Line, Cell,Lines, Cell
D002461 Cell Line, Transformed Eukaryotic cell line obtained in a quiescent or stationary phase which undergoes conversion to a state of unregulated growth in culture, resembling an in vitro tumor. It occurs spontaneously or through interaction with viruses, oncogenes, radiation, or drugs/chemicals. Transformed Cell Line,Cell Lines, Transformed,Transformed Cell Lines
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).

D004260 DNA Repair The removal of DNA LESIONS and/or restoration of intact DNA strands without BASE PAIR MISMATCHES, intrastrand or interstrand crosslinks, or discontinuities in the DNA sugar-phosphate backbones. DNA Damage Response

D014466 Ultraviolet Rays That portion of the electromagnetic spectrum immediately below the visible range and extending into the x-ray frequencies. The longer wavelengths (near-UV or biotic or vital rays) are necessary for the endogenous synthesis of vitamin D and are also called antirachitic rays; the shorter, ionizing wavelengths (far-UV or abiotic or extravital rays) are viricidal, bactericidal, mutagenic, and carcinogenic and are used as disinfectants.

D014983 Xeroderma Pigmentosum A rare, pigmentary, and atrophic autosomal recessive disease. It is manifested as an extreme photosensitivity to ULTRAVIOLET RAYS as the result of a deficiency in the enzyme that permits excisional repair of ultraviolet-damaged DNA. Kaposi Disease,Kaposi's Disease,Kaposis Disease
