Abstract

The capacity for nucleotide excision repair of cells synchronized in S phase and unsynchronized cells was compared by the host cell reactivation assay and the cell‐free repair system. HeLa cells were transfected with in vitro damaged by UV irradiation pEGFP and the repair capacity was determined by the number of fluorescent cells. In the cell‐free repair system, the repair capacity of protein extracts isolated from K562 cells was determined by measuring the transformation efficiency of UV irradiated pBlueScript incubated in the extracts. In both cases, the repair capacity of the cells synchronized in S phase cells was 30–50% higher than the repair capacity of unsynchronized cells.

  • In mammalian cells, NER also acts in S phase, where GG-NER is enhanced and stimulated by active ATR.

    “In mammalian cells the situation is more complex, because NER acts also in S phase, where GG-NER is enhanced [88] and is stimulated by active ATR [89,90].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
