positive regulation of single strand break repair

Definition

Target type: biologicalprocess

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of single strand break repair. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:BHF, GOC:rl, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:17395247]

Positive regulation of single-strand break repair is a crucial cellular process that ensures the integrity of DNA and prevents genomic instability. Single-strand breaks (SSBs) are common DNA lesions that can arise from various sources, including reactive oxygen species, ionizing radiation, and chemical mutagens. To maintain genomic stability, cells have evolved intricate mechanisms to detect and repair these lesions efficiently.

The positive regulation of SSB repair involves a complex interplay of proteins and signaling pathways that orchestrate the timely and efficient repair of these breaks. This process begins with the recognition of the SSB by specialized sensor proteins. These sensors, such as PARP1 (poly ADP-ribose polymerase 1) and ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated), bind to the damaged DNA and initiate a signaling cascade that recruits downstream repair factors.

PARP1, a key player in the SSB repair pathway, binds to the break and triggers the synthesis of poly ADP-ribose (PAR) chains. PARylation acts as a signal to recruit other repair factors, including DNA polymerase beta (Pol beta) and XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1), to the site of damage.

Pol beta is a specialized DNA polymerase that fills in the gap created by the SSB. XRCC1, a scaffolding protein, coordinates the activities of various repair factors, including Pol beta and DNA ligase III, to ensure efficient repair.

The ATM kinase, activated by double-strand breaks (DSBs), also plays a role in SSB repair by phosphorylating key repair proteins, including the MRN complex (Mre11-Rad50-Nbs1) and CHK2 (checkpoint kinase 2). This phosphorylation promotes the activation of repair pathways and cell cycle checkpoints, ensuring that DNA repair is completed before cell division.

In addition to these core repair factors, a variety of other proteins contribute to the positive regulation of SSB repair. These include:

- **DNA helicases:** These enzymes unwind DNA, providing access to the damaged region for repair factors.
- **DNA ligases:** These enzymes seal the breaks in the DNA backbone, completing the repair process.
- **Nucleases:** These enzymes remove damaged nucleotides from the DNA strand.
- **Transcription factors:** These proteins regulate the expression of genes involved in SSB repair.

The positive regulation of SSB repair is essential for maintaining genomic integrity and preventing diseases such as cancer. Defective SSB repair pathways can lead to the accumulation of DNA damage, which can contribute to genomic instability and tumorigenesis. Therefore, understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying this process is crucial for developing novel therapeutic strategies to target cancer and other diseases associated with DNA damage.'
