Regulatory Functions

The promoter of the Kirsten ras (KRAS) proto-oncogene contains, upstream of the transcription start site, a quadruplex-forming motif called 32R with regulatory functions. As guanine under oxidative stress can be oxidized to 8-oxoguanine (8OG), we investigated the capacity of glycosylases 8-oxoguanine glycosylase (OGG1) and endonuclease VIII-like 1 (Neil1) to excise 8OG from 32R, either in duplex or G-quadruplex (G4) conformation. We found that OGG1 efficiently excised 8OG from oxidized 32R in duplex but not in G4 conformation. By contrast, glycosylase Neil1 showed more activity on the G4 than the duplex conformation. We also found that the excising activity of Neil1 on folded 32R depended on G4 topology. Our data suggest that Neil1, besides being involved in base excision repair pathway (BER), could play a role on KRAS transcription.

Abstract Many studies have suggested that genetic variants in donors and recipients are associated with survival-related outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), but these results have not been confirmed. Therefore, the utility of testing genetic variants in donors and recipients for risk stratification or understanding mechanisms leading to mortality after HCT has not been established. We tested 122 recipient and donor candidate variants for association with nonrelapse mortality (NRM) and relapse mortality (RM) in a cohort of 2560 HCT recipients of European ancestry with related or unrelated donors. Associations discovered in this cohort were tested for replication in a separate cohort of 1710 HCT recipients. We found that the donor rs1051792 A allele in MICA was associated with a lower risk of NRM. Donor and recipient rs1051792 genotypes were highly correlated, making it statistically impossible to determine whether the donor or recipient genotype accounted for the association. Risks of grade 3 to 4 graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and NRM in patients with grades 3 to 4 GVHD were lower with donor MICA-129Met but not with MICA-129Val, implicating MICA-129Met in the donor as an explanation for the decreased risk of NRM after HCT. Our analysis of candidate variants did not show any other association with NRM or RM. A genome-wide association study did not identify any other variants associated with NRM or RM.
