Abstract
8-Oxoguanine (8-oxoG) is not only a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage but also an epigenetic-like regulator in mammalian cells. The identification and characterization of 8-oxoG-binding proteins would be crucial for further understanding the biological consequences of 8-oxoG. Here, we identified human Y-box-binding protein 1 (YBX1) as a novel binding protein for 8-oxoG modification in DNA by using a quantitative proteomic approach. Moreover, we found that the deficiency of YBX1 can substantially decrease the cellular sensitivity to oxidative stress and facilitate the repair of 8-oxoG embedded in DNA. These findings provided new insight into the biological significance of the functional interplay between YBX1 and 8-oxoG modification in DNA.
期刊介绍:
ACS Chemical Biology provides an international forum for the rapid communication of research that broadly embraces the interface between chemistry and biology.
The journal also serves as a forum to facilitate the communication between biologists and chemists that will translate into new research opportunities and discoveries. Results will be published in which molecular reasoning has been used to probe questions through in vitro investigations, cell biological methods, or organismic studies.
We welcome mechanistic studies on proteins, nucleic acids, sugars, lipids, and nonbiological polymers. The journal serves a large scientific community, exploring cellular function from both chemical and biological perspectives. It is understood that submitted work is based upon original results and has not been published previously.
