Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DNA of all organisms is constantly being damaged by endogenous and exogenous sources. Oxygen metabolism generates reactive species that can damage DNA, proteins and other organic compounds in living cells. Exogenous sources include ionizing and ultraviolet radiations, carcinogenic compounds and environmental toxins among others. The discovery of multiple DNA lesions and DNA repair mechanisms showed the involvement of DNA damage and DNA repair in the pathogenesis of many human diseases, most notably cancer. These books provide a comprehensive overview of the interdisciplinary area of DNA damage and DNA repair, and their relevance to disease pathology. Edited by recognised leaders in the field, this two-volume set is an appealing resource to a variety of readers including chemists, chemical biologists, geneticists, cancer researchers and drug discovery scientists.

Book excerpt: The ?eld of cellular responses to DNA damage has attained widespread recognition and interest in recent years commensurate with its fundamental role in the ma- tenance of genomic stability. These responses, which are essential to preventing cellular death or malignant transformation, are organized into a sophisticated s- tem designated the “DNA damage response”. This system operates in all living organisms to maintain genomic stability in the face of constant attacks on the DNA from a variety of endogenous by-products of normal metabolism, as well as exogenous agents such as radiation and toxic chemicals in the environment. The response repairs DNA damage via an intricate cellular signal transduction network that coordinates with various processes such as regulation of DNA replication, tr- scriptional responses, and temporary cell cycle arrest to allow the repair to take place. Defects in this system result in severe genetic disorders involving tissue degeneration, sensitivity to speci?c damaging agents, immunode?ciency, genomic instability, cancer predisposition and premature aging. The ?nding that many of the crucial players involved in DNA damage response are structurally and functionally conserved in different species spurred discoveries of new players through similar analyses in yeast and mammals. We now understand the chain of events that leads to instantaneous activation of the massive cellular responses to DNA lesions. This book summarizes several new concepts in this rapidly evolving ?eld, and the advances in our understanding of the complex network of processes that respond to DNA damage.

Book excerpt: This book focuses on the clinical aspects of DNA repair disorders. Nucleotide excision repair is an important pathway for humans, as it is involved in biologically fundamental functions. This work presents clinical features together with the pathogenesis of DNA repair disorders such as Xertoderma Pigmentosum (XP). Studies on animal models are included as well. Clinical feature characteristics of each clinical subtype of XP are depicted according to the genotype, giving accurate and detailed information about the clinical features in terms of gene alterations, change of protein structure, and dysfunction in some of the repair pathways. This book is unique in that it provides detailed information on clinical features from more than 100 patients with XP-A, which is characterized by very severe manifestation of skin photosensitivity and neurological dysfunction. It will give readers important knowledge for understanding the concept and molecular mechanisms of DNA repair disorders. It also describes how to treat and care for patients with XP based on vast experience in clinical practice. DNA Repair Disorders will be a useful resource not only for physicians and basic scientists who are interested in and/or take care of patients with DNA repair disorders, but also dermatologists, neurologists, and researchers in the field of radiation biology and photobiology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DNA is the central repository of genetic information in the cell, yet it is under constant attack by chemical mutagens, radiation and other processes. Cells therefore put a great deal of resources into repairing any damage to this precious store. Mechanisms of DNA repair vary greatly in their level of complexity, from specific reversal mechanisms that involve a single protein, to sequential pathways that require many enzymes. But at the heart of all these mechanisms lie proteins that recognize damage to DNA, raising important questions about how damaged DNA may be distinguished. These recognition processes are now finally yielding their secrets to structural analysis. This volume focuses on DNA repair, with an emphasis on structural data where available.
