ASG DNA MoVINg

Why DNA MoVINg? It is an acronym for Mitochondria, Vascular, Immune and Neuro!

New publication from Menck's lab! ☀️ 💡In XPV cells, high mutation burden stems from oxidative damage to NER proteins, not just TLS defects 💡Antioxidants could help protect XP-V patients from UVA-driven mutagenesis by boosting DNA repair onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/mc…

📢 Registration and abstract submission deadline extended to August 12th! Don't miss it!!!

For all DNA repair and mutagenesis enthusiasts: the 7th edition of Fundamental Aspects of DNA Repair and Mutagenesis (VII FARM-DNA) is coming!🧬🛠 Registrations are open until July 31! To register and submit your abstract, visit: farmdna2025.com.br See you there! 😉

New publication from Menck's lab!!! 🧠 Analysis of transcriptome datasets specific to Cockayne Syndrome revealed significant changes in genes related to the MAPK, ERK1/2, PI3K-Akt pathways, neuronal processes and extracellular matrix metabolism. doi.org/10.1016/j.dnar…

Vem aí a sétima edição do Fundamental Aspects of DNA Repair and Mutagenesis (VII FARM-DNA)! 🧬🛠️ O evento ocorrerá de 1-3/nov em São Paulo e contará com a participação de grandes pesquisadores da área, tanto do Brasil quanto do exterior. Inscreva-se! farmdna2025.com.br

Check out the latest publication of Menck's lab! 🧬☀️ The study shows pyrimidine dimers are the primary lesions contributing to UVA-induced mutagenesis in human NER deficient cells and also that UVA induces mutational signatures similar to those of UVB!!! link.springer.com/article/10.100…

O programa Opinião de amanhã na @tvcultura estará imperdível, com a presença do Prof. Carlos Menck, que organizou o livro “A Evolução é Fato”, da @ABCiencias, e o grande @Pirulla25 🧬🦕 Não perca!!!

SAVE THE DATE!!! 📖🧬 No dia 19 de novembro, ocorrerá o lançamento do livro “A Evolução é Fato”, da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (@abciencias) e coordenado pelo Prof. Carlos Menck!!! Inscreva-se gratuitamente e junte-se a nós para bater um papo sobre Evolução! 😉

@IngridPluijm Thank YOU for coming!!!

@DNAMoving It was great to present my work and see you all in real life! Thanks for having me.

Today we had our first in-person DNA moVIng meeting! 🤗 It was a great pleasure for us to receive Dr. @IngridPluijm and discuss what is being going on in our research projects! 🫀🧬

New paper from a collab between Menck and Woodgate labs! 🧬 @woodgatelab

Great review by my friend Nathalia Quintero on CRISPR-based libraries for cancer studies! 🦀 #CRISPR #cancer sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

No post do Dia das Mulheres e Meninas na Ciência, eu comentei que trabalhava com genes de reparo de DNA! Mas você sabe o que é reparo de DNA? 🧬 Vem que eu te explico neste fio! 🧵

Pretty new paper of my friend Fabiana León published in @Mut_Research! ☀️ Among the results, it shows that in C. crescentus, UVA and sunlight does not only activate photorepair, but also induce formation of lesions other than pyrimidine dimers. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Exciting news! We have recently published a paper in #Photochemistry and #Photobiology! The work reveals a key role of pol iota as a backup for pol eta during translesion synthesis in NER-deficient XPC cells knocked down for either pol iota or pol eta 🧬 bit.ly/422mrt2
