关 键 词:ionizing radiation induced-genes double strand breakages
摘 要:Exposure of cells to ionizing radiation(IR)results in DNA double strand breakages(DSBs).Upon DSB formation,cells induce cell cycle arrest,DNA damage repair,and cell *** investigations of cellular radiation response,complexities of the mechanisms limit our understanding of the *** that of the cellular response to low dose ionizing radiation is quite *** we tried screening and isolation of low dose ionizing radiation-induced *** were isolated based on their higher expression following 1cGy gamma irradiation compared to non-irradiated *** of the isolated genes revealed a nucleotide sequence which encodes exonuclease domain highly similar to that of Exonuclease *** vitro analysis of the gene product as a form of recombinant protein exhibited nuclease *** gene product was detected in the nucleus with other apoptotic nucleases such as CAD and AIF following *** nuclease activity and colocalization with other apoptotic nucleases support the notion that the gene product might be involved in IR-induced cell *** data,thus,suggest that the low dose IR-induced gene product acts in concert with other apoptotic nucleases to enhance apoptosis following low-dose ionizing irradiation.
