Abstract excerpt
Human 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase 1 (hOGG1) plays an important role in the repair of 8-oxo-7, 8-dihydro-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-oxodGuo), one of the major constituents in DNA damage. A recent in vitro study showed that the hOGG1 326Cys polymorphism (rs1052133) exhibits reduced 8-oxodGuo repair activity. This study aimed to develop a LightCycler (LC) assay to analyze the C>G polymorphism (Ser326Cys) in exon 7 of the...
