Times Cited Count:10 Percentile:23.05(Plant Sciences)The resistance of strains Z (wild type) and SM-ZK (chloroplast-deficient mutant) to ionizing radiation was investigated. The colony forming ability of strain Z was higher than that of strain SM-ZK after -irradiation. For both strains, the resistance of light-grown cells was higher than that of dark-grown cells, suggesting that the light conditions during the culture contribute to the radiation resistance of . The comet assay showed that the ability of rejoining DNA double-strand breaks (dsb) was much higher in the light-grown cells. These results suggest that possesses a light-induced repair system to cope with DNA dsb.

Times Cited Count:152 Percentile:95.78(Biochemistry & Molecular Biology)We have identified a unique deinococcal gene, , as a general switch for downstream DNA repair and protection pathways, from a natural mutant, in which is disrupted by a transposon. Complete functional disruption of the gene in wild-type leads to dramatic sensitivity to ionizing radiation. Radioresistance of the disruptant could be fully restored by complementation with . In response to radiation stress, PprI can significantly and specifically induce the gene expression of and and enhance the enzyme activities of catalases. These results strongly suggest that PprI plays a crucial role in regulating multiple DNA repair and protection pathways in response to radiation stress.

Times Cited Count:37 Percentile:51.64(Multidisciplinary Sciences)The gene products (PolV) participate in both a DNA damage checkpoint control and translesion DNA synthesis. Interactions of the two gene products, UmuD and UmuD' proteins, with components of the replicative DNA polymerase (PolIII), are important for determining which biological role the gene products will play. We have shown that UmuD possesses a higher affinity for PolIII processivity clamp than does UmuD' because of the N-terminal arm of UmuD, much of which is missing in UmuD'. Futhermore, we identified specific amino acid residues of UmuD that crosslink to with a crosslinker, -azidoiodoacetanilide, defining the domain important for the interaction.

a DNA damage response mechanism. However, the damage response is poorly understood in . By investigating the function of deinococcal proteins, we found that, unlike in , LexA is not involved in the regulation of RecA in . This, in turn, led us to speculate that has an alternative DNA damage response mechanism with which to control expression. Recently, we discovered that a novel protein regulates the expression of gene. The novel regulatory protein (designated as PprI) also control the induction of gene following irradiation. Thus, possesses unique mechanisms of DNA damage recognition and repair gene induction.

As in the wild-type strain, an increase in RecA protein synthesis following irradiation was detected in a disruptant, indicating that LexA is not involved in the induction of RecA in .
