Werner and Bloom helicases are involved in DNA repair in a complementary fashion Bloom syndrome (BS) is a recessive disorder characterized by short stature and immunodeficiency.Wholesale Ralph Lauren Polo Shirts A common characteristic of both syndromes is genomic instability leading to tumorigenesis. WRN and BLM genes causing WS and BS, encode proteins that are closely related to the RecQ helicase. We produced WRN-/-, BLM-/- and WRN-/-/BLM-/- mutants in the chicken B-cell line DT40. WRN-/- cells showed hypersensitivities to genotoxic agents, such as 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide, camptothecin and methyl methanesulfonate. They also showed a threefold increase in targeted integration rate of exogenous DNAs, but not in sister chromatid exchange (SCE) frequency. BLM-/- cells showed hypersensitivities to the genotoxic agents as well as ultraviolet (UV) light, in addition to a 10-fold increase in targeted integration rate and an 11-fold increase in SCE frequency. In WRN-/-/BLM-/- cells, synergistically increased hypersensitivities to the genotoxic agents were observed whereas both SCE frequencies and targeted integration rates were partially diminished compared to the single mutants. Chromosomal aberrations were also synergistically increased in WRN-/-/BLM-/- cells when irradiated with UV light in late S to G2 phases. These results suggest that both WRN and BLM may be involved in DNA repair in a complementary fashion.
