regulation of base-excision repair

Definition

Target type: biologicalprocess

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of base-excision repair. [GO_REF:0000058, GOC:ah, GOC:TermGenie, PMID:18973764]

Base-excision repair (BER) is a major DNA repair pathway responsible for removing a wide variety of damaged or modified bases from DNA. BER is a multi-step process that involves the following key players:

1. **DNA glycosylases:** These enzymes recognize and remove specific damaged or modified bases from DNA. There are several different DNA glycosylases, each with specificity for a particular type of DNA damage. For example, uracil DNA glycosylase (UNG) removes uracil, a common base modification that can arise from deamination of cytosine.
2. **AP endonuclease:** After the damaged base is removed, an apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) site is created. AP endonucleases cleave the phosphodiester backbone at the 5' end of the AP site, creating a single-strand break.
3. **Deoxyribose phosphate (dRP) lyase:** This enzyme removes the 5' deoxyribose phosphate group from the AP site, leaving a gap in the DNA.
4. **DNA polymerase:** DNA polymerase fills in the gap using the complementary strand as a template.
5. **DNA ligase:** DNA ligase seals the nick in the DNA backbone, restoring the intact DNA molecule.

**Regulation of BER:**

BER is tightly regulated to ensure that it is active only when needed and that it does not interfere with other essential cellular processes. Several mechanisms contribute to the regulation of BER:

* **Expression of DNA glycosylases:** The expression of DNA glycosylases is often induced in response to DNA damage. For example, the expression of UNG is increased following exposure to UV radiation or reactive oxygen species.
* **Post-translational modifications:** DNA glycosylases can be modified by phosphorylation, acetylation, and ubiquitination. These modifications can alter the activity and stability of the enzymes.
* **Protein-protein interactions:** DNA glycosylases interact with other proteins, such as repair factors and transcription factors, to coordinate the repair process and prevent inappropriate activation.
* **Competition with other DNA repair pathways:** BER competes with other DNA repair pathways, such as nucleotide excision repair (NER), for access to damaged DNA. The relative efficiency of these pathways can determine which pathway is activated in a given situation.

**Overall, the regulation of BER is a complex process that ensures the accurate and efficient repair of damaged DNA. This process is critical for maintaining the integrity of the genome and preventing the development of diseases such as cancer.**'
