Discovering a missing link in DNA damage repair

Rochester, Minnesota - For years, researchers have known that our genome is protected by a system of detection, evaluation and repair processes that activate any time DNA damage occurs. Upon detection, the damage is assessed, repaired in one way or another, or, if it can’t be repaired the cell is cued to self-destruct. Much of that effort is set in motion by a signaling process involving the protein ubiquitin. Enzymes called ubiquitin ligases are charged with the task of tagging the damaged DNA with this ubiquitin protein to call in more help. What hasn’t been clear is how two of the key enzymes that mark the sites of DNA damage and amplify the repair response are called to action. Researchers theorized there was another actor involved, a missing link. Now Mayo Clinic researchers have discovered that link.
