Long-patch Base Excision Repair

8.2K
Since the discovery of the two BER pathways, there has been a debate about how a cell chooses one pathway over the other and the factors determining this selection. Numerous in vitro experiments have pointed out multiple determinants for the sub-pathway selection. These are:

Mismatch Repair

Organisms are capable of detecting and fixing nucleotide mismatches that occur during DNA replication. This sophisticated process requires identifying the new strand and replacing the erroneous bases with correct nucleotides. Mismatch repair is coordinated by many proteins in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
The Mutator Protein Family Plays a Key Role in DNA Mismatch Repair
The human genome has more than 3 billion base pairs of DNA per cell. Prior to cell division, that vast amount of genetic...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Molecular Biology
  • Evolutionary Biology

Background:

  • The Chlamydomonas reference genome is a valuable resource but contains approximately 1000 'N-islands' (unknown sequences).
  • These N-islands are often located within introns of annotated gene models, suggesting potential for undiscovered genetic elements.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and apply methods for identifying previously unknown exons within intronic N-islands.
  • To determine the sequence and boundaries of these newly identified exons.

Main Methods:

  • Assembly and alignment of short cDNA and genomic DNA reads.
  • Methods were designed to be independent of existing reference genome assembly or annotation.

Main Results:

  • A significant number of intronic N-islands contain hidden exons.
  • The developed algorithm successfully recovered full exonic sequences, including splice junctions and adjacent intronic regions.
  • These newly identified exons represent novel sequences not previously present in the assembled genome.

Conclusions:

  • The study significantly expands the annotated gene content of the Chlamydomonas genome.
  • The inclusion of these novel exons enhances the evolutionary conservation of the predicted encoded peptides, providing deeper insights into gene function and evolution.
