Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We had reported several functional domains at the C-terminla of NBS1, which was identified as a protein responsible for radiation sensitive disease, Nijmegen breakage syndrome, by us in 1998. The functional roles of these domains were analyzed by using the cells lacking the specified domain or knock-in mice, which revealed the association with the radiation resistance at low dose irradiation in radiation therapy and with the genome instability, such as mutagenesis and carcinogenesis. Moreover, we found two novel functional domains in the C-terminal region and middle region, respectively. Analysis using CRISPRA technique indicated their functional roles in non-homologous end-joining for radiation-induced DNA double strand breaks and also in another genome stability.
