UV radiation
|
|
Lesion name & description: radiation
|
pyrmidine dimer formed when e- vacate double bond and make 2 sing covalent bonds
|
|
Mutations: radiation
|
Sub/Del
|
|
Direct repair: radiation
|
Photolyase breaks 2 sing cov bonds using solar energy b4 replication
|
|
Excision Repair: radiation
name enzymes involved |
NER makes 2 nicks on either side of phosphodiester bond
enzymes: UVRabc endonuclease, helicase, DNAPI, and ligase |
|
mutation examples: alkylating agents
|
nitrosamines, BaP
|
|
lesion name and descr: alkylating agents
|
nitrosamines (small ring): AP site causes problem binding sequence
nitrosamines (large ring): methyl guanine BaP: alkyl guanine |
|
mutation: alkylating agents
|
AP site = sub/del
meth guanine = transition alkyl guanine = transversion |
|
direct repair: alkylating agents
|
suicide enzye removes ethyl/methyl then is degraded in proteosome
|
|
Excision repair: alkylating agents
|
AP endonuclease fix AP sites
NER fixes alkyl guanine |
|
examples: deaminating agents
|
nitrous acid
|
|
lesion name & descr: deaminating agents
|
normal base is turned into rare base which occurs when exocyclic amine turns into a carbonyl
|
|
Mutation: deaminating agents
|
Transitions
|
|
Direct repair: deaminating agents
|
none
|
|
Excision repair: deaminating agents
|
Glycosylase detects rare base and removes it. AP endonuclease is repair system
|
|
examples: intercalators
|
ethidium bromide
|
|
lesion name & descr: intercalators
|
slide b/w bases and backbone stretches which causes new strand to not stay together which increases frequency of slippage
|
|
mutation: intercalators
|
ins/del
|
|
direct repair: intercalators
|
none
|
|
excision repair: intercalators
|
mismatch repair fixes slippage. mutS binds to mismatch and brings mismatch to mutH that is bound to methyl, mutH binds to mutS activating mutH's endonuclease act, mutH nicks @ methylation site, then exonucl removes until mismatch, mutS indicates where it should stop
