A significant proportion of cellular DNA damages induced by ionizing radiation are produced in clusters, also called multiply damaged sites. It has been demonstrated by in vitro studies and in bacteria that clustered damage sites can be converted to lethal double strand breaks by oxidative DNA glycosylases during attempted base excision repair. To determine whether DNA glycosylases could produce double...
There are numerous studies documenting the increase of oxidative DNA damage in the nuclei and mitochondria of senescing cells as well as in tissues of aging animals. Here, we show that in IMR 90 human diploid fibroblasts, DNA repair activity is robust in both nuclear and mitochondrial extracts, however, the levels of activity differed against the three substrates tested. In extracts, cleavage of the...
