项目摘要
This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).DNA is the “blueprint of life” that contains the instructions needed for cells to grow. That information must be duplicated accurately when a cell divides; otherwise, errors will be embedded into the DNA template and be passed onto the future generations of cells. Cellular DNA undergoes harmful modifications daily as a result of chemical and environmental stressors. The goal of this project is to determine the precise mechanisms by which repair proteins recognize and remove damaged DNA. The experiments will be incorporated into the CHM 4257 (Biochemistry Laboratory) curriculum to increase the access of basic research for Oakland University (OU) undergraduates. Since 24 students enroll in CHM 4257 each year, this project will provide research opportunities for up to 120 OU undergraduates. CHM 4257 students will gain a more authentic laboratory experience instead of performing a set of scripted procedures. To integrate research with outreach, OU students will demonstrate genetic testing (for lactose tolerance) in high school science classrooms with an all-in-one DNA analysis kit from Bento Lab. By mobilizing research, students and teachers who have limited resources will have a convenient way to use laboratory equipment. The outreach activities will allow OU undergraduates to work with high school students and teachers to reinforce textbook principles through hands-on experiences. This project will engage students in research, classroom education, and community outreach to prepare them for a future career in science. American Rescue Plan funding is used to support this early career investigator at a critical stage in his career.G-quadruplexes (G4s) are ubiquitous nucleic acid structures that are formed by guanine-rich sequences. G4s are especially prone to oxidative damage and 8-oxoguanine modified G4s (8oxoG4s) must be removed timely in dividing cells. The FANCJ helicase and REV1 polymerase have emerged as first responders in the repair of 8oxoG4s; however, the precise mechanisms by which FANCJ and REV1 assemble onto DNA to coordinate the unfolding of 8oxoG4s with translesion synthesis are not yet clear. The goals of this project are to define the fundamental role of 8oxoG in not only the thermal and mechanical stability of 8oxoG4s, but also the binding of FANCJ and REV1. The DNA binding properties of FANCJ and REV1 are expected to correlate with their repair functions in human cells. To test this working hypothesis, the impact of 8oxoG on the structure and thermal stability of 8oxoG4s will be examined by circular dichroism spectroscopy; the mechanical stability and unfolding mechanism of the DNA will be determined by single-molecule “fleezers.” Next, the affinities of FANCJ and REV1 for 8oxoG4s will be measured by biolayer interferometry. Lastly, the effects of 8oxoG4s on the DNA repair and contractile phenotypes of human heart muscle cells will be determined by modified comet assays and video-based imaging. These results will define the relationship between oxidative DNA damage and cardiomyocyte function for the first time, and they will facilitate future research to delineate the unknown phenotypes of FANCJ and REV1 variants.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
该奖项全部或部分由《2021年美国救援计划法案》(公法117-2)资助。DNA是“生命的蓝图”,包含细胞生长所需的指令。当细胞分裂时,这些信息必须精确地复制;否则,错误就会嵌入到DNA模板中,并遗传给后代的细胞。由于化学和环境的压力,细胞DNA每天都在经历有害的修饰。该项目的目标是确定修复蛋白识别和去除受损DNA的精确机制。实验将被纳入CHM 4257(生物化学实验室)课程,以增加奥克兰大学(OU)本科生的基础研究机会。由于每年有24名学生注册CHM 4257,该项目将为多达120名OU本科生提供研究机会。CHM 4257学生将获得更真实的实验室体验,而不是执行一套脚本程序。为了将研究与推广结合起来,公开大学的学生将在高中科学教室中使用Bento实验室的一体化DNA分析试剂盒演示基因测试(乳糖耐受性)。通过动员研究,资源有限的学生和教师将有一个方便的方法来使用实验室设备。外展活动将允许开放大学的本科生与高中学生和老师一起通过实践经验来强化教科书原则。该项目将让学生参与研究、课堂教育和社区外展,为他们未来的科学事业做好准备。美国救援计划的资金用于支持这位早期职业调查员在他职业生涯的关键阶段。g -四plex (G4s)是一种普遍存在的核酸结构,由富含鸟嘌呤的序列形成。G4s尤其容易发生氧化损伤,在细胞分裂过程中必须及时清除8-氧鸟嘌呤修饰的G4s (8oxoG4s)。FANCJ解旋酶和REV1聚合酶在8oxoG4s的修复中被认为是第一反应者;然而,FANCJ和REV1组装到DNA上协调8oxoG4s的展开与翻译合成的精确机制尚不清楚。本项目的目标是确定8oxoG在8oxoG4s的热稳定性和机械稳定性以及FANCJ和REV1结合中的基本作用。FANCJ和REV1的DNA结合特性可能与其在人类细胞中的修复功能相关。为了验证这一工作假设,8oxoG对8oxoG4s结构和热稳定性的影响将通过圆二色光谱进行检测;DNA的机械稳定性和展开机制将由单分子“fleezer”决定。接下来,通过生物层干涉测量FANCJ和REV1对8oxoG4s的亲和力。最后,8oxoG4s对人类心肌细胞DNA修复和收缩表型的影响将通过改进的彗星试验和基于视频的成像来确定。这些结果将首次明确氧化DNA损伤与心肌细胞功能之间的关系,并将有助于未来研究描绘FANCJ和REV1变异的未知表型。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
