The mammalian XRCC genes: their roles in DNA repair and genetic stability

DNA Repair
J Thacker, Malgorzata Z Zdzienicka

Abstract

Analysis of the XRCC genes has played an important part in understanding mammalian DNA repair processes, especially those involved in double-strand break (DSB) repair. Most of these genes were identified through their ability to correct DNA damage hypersensitivity in rodent cell lines, and they represent components of several different repair pathways including base-excision repair, non-homologous end joining, and homologous recombination. We document the phenotypic effects of mutation of the XRCC genes, and the current state of our knowledge of their functions. In addition to their continuing importance in discovering mechanisms of DNA repair, analysis of the XRCC genes is making a substantial contribution to the understanding of specific human disorders, including cancer.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
