Cloning and characterization of hOGG1 , a human homolog of the OGG1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Abstract: The OGG1 gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae encodes a DNA glycosylase activity that is a functional analog of the Fpg protein from Escherichia coli and excises 7,8-dihydro-8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) from damaged DNA. The repair of this ubiquitous kind of oxidative damage is essential to prevent mutations both in bacteria and in yeast. A human cDNA clone carrying an ORF displaying homology to the yeast protein was identified. The predicted protein has 345 amino acids and a molecular mass of 39 kDa. This protein shares… Show more

“…The DNA glycosylases OGG1 and MUTYH excise 8-oxo-Gua bases paired with C, and A bases paired with 8-oxo-Gua, respectively [19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. Thus, both of these enzymes would be expected to suppress G:C → T:A transversions caused by the oxidation of G bases in DNA.…”

“…The presence of a similar system in mammals has been established by the recent cloning of the human and mouse OGG1 cDNAs (Lu et al, 1997;Arai et al, 1997; Abarutani et al, 1997;Rosenquist et al, 1997;Radicella et al, 1997;Roldan-Arjona et al, 1997;Bjoras et al, 1997). At least two messenger RNA forms have been identi®ed in human cells, coding for proteins of 345 and 424 amino acids with molecular weights of 39-kDa and 47-kDa, respectively (Lu et al, 1997;Arai et al, 1997; Abarutani et al, 1997;Rosenquist et al, 1997;Radicella et al, 1997;Roldan-Arjona et al, 1997;Bjoras et al, 1997). The biological signi®cance of this polymorphism has not yet been elucidated.…”

“…A combination of cytogenetic and molecular studies have implicated loss of heterozygosity (LOH) or deletions in chromosome 3p in human lung and kidney cancers (Naylor et al, 1987;Yokota et al, 1987;Hibi et al, 1992). Some of these rearrangements could a ect the OGG1 gene which has been localised to 3p25-26 (Lu et al, 1997;Arai et al, 1997;Radicella et al, 1997;Roldan-Arjona et al, 1997;Bjoras et al, 1997). Furthermore, the analysis of the sequence changes in the p53 tumour suppressor gene showed that in lung and kidney cancers there is a bias in favour of GC to TA tranversions (Hollstein et al, 1996).…”

“…1 HOGG1 shares a 38% identity with the yeast OGG1. It has been localized to chromosome 3p25 by fluorescent-in-situ hybridization (FISH) by Radicella et al in 1997, 2 and it was cloned by Rosenquist et al 3 in 1997. This DNA glycosylase/apurinic lyase repairs oxidative DNA damage, specifically 8-oxoguanine/C base pairs.…”
