Abstract:
DNA replication is one of the vital processes in the cell; it duplicates chromosomal DNA before a cell divides. In all organisms, DNA synthesis on the leading-strand template occurs continuously, whereas on the lagging strand a different mechanism is required. Due to the anti-parallel structure of double-stranded DNA, lagging-strand synthesis requires repeated RNA priming by a specialist primase and synthesis of short Okazaki fragments. How proteins carry out this dynamic process is still unknown. For Escherichia coli DNA replication, a lagging-strand three-point switch was proposed in 1999 to

Abstract:
DNA gyrase, a type II topoisomerase, catalyses the introduction of negative supercoils into closed-circular DNA, using the energy from ATP hydrolysis. The reaction mechanism involves the breakage of one DNA double strand (the DNA gate) and the passing of another DNA strand (the passage helix) through that break and finally the re-sealing of the DNA gate. The strand-passage reaction was studied by the use of novel DNA substrates and by site-directed mutagenesis of one of the gyrase proteins. The DNA substrates were used to attempt to define the DNA segments used by the enzyme as the DNA gate an

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are toxic lesions that can be repaired by numerous mechanistically distinct pathways. However, regulation of DSB repair pathway utilisation is also essential for maintaining genomic integrity, and eukaryotes have evolved several mechanisms to achieve this.

One example of a post-translational modification with a role in DNA repair is Poly-ADP ribosylation (PARylation), which in mammals is mediated by Poly-ADP ribose Polymerase 1 and 2 (PARP1 and 2). T

Efficient and accurate repair of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) is required to maintain genomic stability in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes.

During this process, DNA synthesis needs to be primed and templated from an intact homologous sequence to restore any information that may have been lost on the broken DNA molecule. Two critical late stages of the pathway are repair DNA synthesis and the processing of Holliday junctions (HJs). However, our knowledge of the detailed mechanisms of these steps is still limited.

A DNA double-strand break (DSB) is a severe form of DNA damage. In fastgrowing cells, DSBs are commonly repaired by homologous recombination (HR) and in E. coli they are exclusively repaired by this mechanism. Failure to accurately repair DSBs can lead to genomic instability. Characterising the DNA intermediates formed during DSB repair by HR is key to understanding this process. A system for inducing a site-specific DSB in the E. coli chromosome has previously been described (Eykelenboom et al., 2008). Here, this system has been used to determine the nature of the intermediates of the repair.

Abstract:
Ionizing radiation (IR) triggers many signaling pathways stemming from DNA damage, and, independently, from extra-nuclear events. To generate radio-mimetic DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) without and minimizing the effects on extra-nuclear radiation targets, human (p53+) glioma and carcinoma cells containing bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)- substituted DNA were treated with Hoechst 33258 followed by long wave-length UV (UV-A) (BrdU photolysis). BrdU photolysis resulted in well-controlled, dose-dependent generation of DSBs equivalent to 0.2 - 20 Gy of IR, as detected by pulse-field gel electrophoresis

Abstract:
Repairing a chromosomal DNA double strand break is essential for survival and maintenance of genomic integrity of a eukaryotic organism. The eukaryotic cell has therefore evolved intricate mechanisms to counteract all sorts of genomic insults in the context of chromatin structure. Modulating chromatin structure has been crucial and integral in regulating a number of conserved repair processes along with other fundamental genomic processes like replication and transcription. The work in this dissertation has focused on understanding the role of chromatin remodeling enzymes in the repair of a ch

Abstract:
Il est essentiel que les extrémités du DSB soient maintenues ensemble pour une réparation rapide. Chez Saccharomyces cerevisiae, deux voies mal comprises interviennent dans l'attache finale du DSB. L'un utilise le complexe Mre11-Rad50-Xrs2 (MRX) pour relier physiquement les extrémités DSB. Un autre nécessite la conversion des extrémités DSB en ADN simple brin (ssDNA) par Exo1, mais les protéines de pontage sont inconnues. Nous découvrons que la cohésine, son chargeur et Smc5/6 agissent avec Exo1 pour attacher les extrémités du DSB. Remarquablement, la cohésine spécifiquement altérée lors de l'
