Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Anti-cancer drug camptothecin (CPT) causes DNA double-strand break (DSB) containing a single-DNA end that is referred to as one-ended DSB. Given that contribution of non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) to the repair of one-ended DSBs are considered to sensitize cells to CPT, it is important to reveal the mechanism of NHEJ contribution to the repair of one-ended DSBs for consideration of CPT efficacy in the chemotherapy. Several researches suggested that UbcH5 is involved in the appearance of chromosome aberrations and CPT-resistance via NHEJ. SIAH1 was also identified as E3 ubiquitin ligase that is involved in NHEJ activation, but it has showed different phenotypes from UbcH5 so far.
