NAD(+)-dependent repair of damaged DNA by human cell extracts.
1 Mar 1993
Abstract excerpt
Rejoining of DNA single-strand breaks generated by treatment of plasmids with gamma-rays, neocarzinostatin, or bleomycin was catalyzed inefficiently by human cell extracts. The reaction was strongly promoted by the addition of NAD+, which was employed for rapid and transient synthesis of poly(ADP-ribose). The DNA rejoining reaction was accompanied by DNA repair replication, apparently due to replacement of...
