Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is a pathway that repairs a broad class of helix-distorting lesions in DNA that disrupt transcription and replication. It involves recognizing the damaged site, unwinding the DNA helix, making dual incisions on both sides of the damage, excising the damaged fragment, and resynthesizing the replacement DNA. NER is a complex process involving at least 28 genes and is important for repairing UV-induced damage and protecting against sunlight-induced DNA damage and cancer. Defects in NER genes can cause diseases like xeroderma pigmentosum, trichothiodystrophy, and Cockayne syndrome.

SOS repair
a system that repairs severely damaged bases in DNA by base excision and replacement, even if there is no template to guide base selection. This process is a last resort for repair and is often the cause of mutations.

Describe the repair mechanisms used during DNA replication.
Solution
DNA like any other molecule can undergo a variety of chemical reactions. Because DNA
uniquely serves as a permanent copy of the cell genome, however, changes in its structure are of
much greater consequence than are alterations in other cell components, i.e RNA’s and Proteins.
Mutations can consider the incorporation of incorrect bases during DNA replication. And also,
various chemical changes occur in DNA either spontaneously or as a result of exposure to
chemicals or radiation. Such damage to DNA can block replication or transcription, and can
result in a high frequency of mutations—consequences that are unacceptable from the standpoint
of cell reproduction.
To maintain the integrity of their genomes, cells have therefore had to evolve mechanisms to
repair damaged DNA. DNA repair mechanism can be divided into two general classes: (1) direct
reversal of the chemical reaction responsible for DNA damage, and (2) removal of the damaged
bases followed by their replacement with newly synthesized DNA. The rate of DNA repair is
dependent on many factors, including the cell type, the age of the cell, and the extracellular
environment. A cell that has accumulated a large amount of DNA damage, or one that no longer
effectively repairs damage incurred to its DNA, can enter one of three possible states:
1. an irreversible state of dormancy, known as senescence
2. cell suicide, also known as apoptosis or programmed cell death
3. unregulated cell division, which can lead to the formation of a tumor that is cancerous
The DNA repair ability of a cell is vital to the integrity of its genome and thus to the normal
functionality of that organism.
Direct reversal
Cells are known to eliminate three types of damage to their DNA by chemically reversing it.
These mechanisms do not require a template,the types of damage they counteract can occur in
only one of the four bases. Such direct reversal mechanisms are specific to the type of damage
incurred and do not involve breakage of the phosphodiester backbone. The formation of
pyrimidine dimers upon irradiation with UV light results in an abnormal covalent bond between
adjacent pyrimidine bases. The photo reactivation process directly reverses this damage by the
action of the enzyme photolyase, whose activation is obligately dependent on energy absorbed
from blue/UV light (300–500 nm wavelength) to promote catalysis.
The second type of damage, methylation of guanine bases, is directly reversed by the protein
methyl guanine methyl transferase (MGMT),
The third type of DNA damage reversed by cells is certain methylation of the bases cytosine and
adenine.
Excision Repair mechanisms
Single strand damage:
When only one of the two strands of a double helix has a defect, the other strand can be used as a
template to guide the correction of the damaged strand. In order to repair damage to one of the
two paired molecules of DNA, there exist a number of excis.
Each day the genome is subjected to thousands of DNA damaging events from diverse sources which can have potentially deleterious consequences. In order to maintain genome integrity eukaryotic cells have evolved a highly complex and multifaceted response network called the DNA damage response, or ?DDR?....

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

and can repair alkylated bases.

6. Excision repair directly replaces damaged DNA and then resynthesizes a replacement stretch for the damaged strand.
7. WHAT IS NER?!
NUCLEOTIDE
EXCISION REPAIR (NER) is a
versatile repair pathway, involved in the removal of
a variety of bulky DNA lesions such as UV induced
cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPD) and
pyrimidine 6-4 pyrimidone photoproducts (6-4PP).
NER is a complex process in which basically the
following steps can be distinguished:
recognition of a DNA lesion;
separation of the double helix at the DNA lesion site;
single strand incision at both sides of the lesion;
excision of the lesion-containing single stranded
DNA fragment;
DNA repair synthesis to replace the gap and
ligation of the remaining single stranded nick.
8.
The NER pathway involves at least 28 genes. Three NER
genes are also part of the basal transcription factor,
TFIIH. Mutations in 11 NER genes have been associated
with clinical diseases with at least eight overlapping
phenotypes.
NER is involved in protection against sunlight-induced
DNA damage.
Several of the genes involved in NER also affect somatic
growth and development.
Patients with the rare genetic disorders, xeroderma
pigmentosum (XP), trichothiodystrophy (TTD) and
Cockayne syndrome (CS) have defects in DNA
nucleotide excision repair (NER).
9.
The clinical features of these patients have some similarities but also have
marked differences. While XP patients have 1000-fold increase in
susceptibility to skin cancer, TTD and CS patients have normal skin cancer
risk. Some patients have short stature and immature sexual development.
TTD patients have sulfur deficient brittle hair. Progressive sensorineural
deafness is an early feature of XP and CS. Many of these clinical diseases
are associated with developmental delay and progressive neurological
degeneration. The main neuropathology of XP is a primary neuronal
degeneration. In contrast, CS and TTD patients have reduced myelination of
the brain. These complex neurological abnormalities are not related to
sunlight exposure but may be caused by developmental defects as well as
faulty repair of DNA damage to neuronal cells induced by oxidative
metabolism or other endogenous processes.
10. Excision Repair Systems in E. coli
The UVR system makes incisions ~12 bases apart on both sides of damaged
DNA, removes the DNA between them, and re-synthesizes new DNA.
Excision repair systems vary in their specificity, but share the same
general features. Each system removes impaired or damaged
bases from DNA and then synthesizes a new stretch of DNA to
replace them.
incision : an endonuclease recognizes the damaged area in the
DNA, and isolates it by cutting the DNA strand on both sides of the
damage.
excision : a 5’-3’ exonuclease removes a stretch of the damaged
strand.
12. The UVR system operates in
stages in which UVRAB
recognizes damage, UVRBC
nicks the DNA, and UVRD
unwinds the marked region.
(The UVR system of excision
repair includes three genes,
UVRA, B, and C, which code
for the components of a
repair endonuclease. UVRD is
a helicase. In almost all (99%)
of cases, the average length
of replaced DNA is ∼12
nucleotides (short-patch
repair).
13. Excision-Repair Pathways in Mammalian Cells
Mammalian excision repair is triggered by directly removing a damaged base
from DNA.
Base removal triggers the removal and replacement of a stretch of
polynucleotides.
The nature of the base removal reaction determines which of two pathways
for excision repair is activated.
The polδ/ε pathway replaces a long polynucleotide stretch; the polβ pathway
replaces a short stretch.
The general principle of excision-repair in mammalian cells is similar
to that of bacteria. The process usually starts in a different way,
however, with the removal of an individual damaged base.
Enzymes that remove bases from DNA are called glycosylases and
lyases.
