RNF8 promotes high linear energy transfer carbon-ion-induced DNA double-stranded break repair in serum-starved human cells
20 May 2020
Abstract excerpt
The cell-killing effect of radiotherapy largely depends on unrepaired DNA double-stranded breaks (DSBs) or lethal chromosome aberrations induced by DSBs. Thus, the capability of DSB repair is critically important for the cancer-cell-killing effect of ionizing radiation. Here, we investigated the involvement of the DNA damage signaling factors ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM), ring finger protein 8 (RNF8), and...
