• 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg1) controls hepatic gluconeogenesis 

      Scheffler, Katja; Rachek, Lyudmila; You, Panpan; Rowe, Alexander D.; Wang, Wei; Kuśnierczyk, Anna; Kittelsen, Lene Svendsen; Bjørås, Magnar; Eide, Lars (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) resides in close proximity to metabolic reactions, and is maintained by the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg1) and other members of the base excision repair pathway. Here, we tested the hypothesis ...
    • Additive manufacturing of laminar flow cells for single-molecule experiments 

      Ahmadi, Arash; Till, Katharina; Hafting, Yngve; Schuttpelz, Mark; Bjørås, Magnar; Glette, Kyrre; Tørresen, Jim; Rowe, Alexander D.; Dalhus, Bjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)
      A microfluidic laminar flow cell (LFC) forms an indispensable component in single-molecule experiments, enabling different substances to be delivered directly to the point under observation and thereby tightly controlling ...
    • NEIL1 and NEIL2 DNA glycosylases modulate anxiety and learning in a cooperative manner in mice 

      Hildrestrand, Gunn Annette; Rolseth, Veslemøy; Kunath, Nicolas; Suganthan, Rajikala; Jensen, Vidar; Bugaj, Anna Maria; Fernandez Berrocal, Marion Silvana; SIkko, Sunniva Bøe; Vetlesen, Susanne; Kusnierczyk, Anna; Olsen, Ann-Karin Hardie; Gutzkow, Kristine Bjerve; Rowe, Alexander D.; Wang, Wei; Moldestad, Olve; Syrstad, Monika; Slupphaug, Geir; Eide, Lars; Klungland, Arne; Sætrom, Pål; Luna, Luisa; Ye, Jing; Scheffler, Katja; Bjørås, Magnar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Oxidative DNA damage in the brain has been implicated in neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. DNA glycosylases initiate base excision repair (BER), the main pathway for oxidative DNA base lesion repair. NEIL1 and NEIL3 ...
    • PML regulates the epidermal differentiation complex and skin morphogenesis during mouse embryogenesis 

      Polec, Anna; Rowe, Alexander D.; Blicher, Pernille; Suganthan, Rajikala; Bjørås, Magnar; Bøe, Stig Ove (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      The promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein is an essential component of nuclear compartments called PML bodies. This protein participates in several cellular processes, including growth control, senescence, apoptosis, and ...
    • Synergistic Actions of Ogg1 and Mutyh DNA Glycosylases Modulate Anxiety-like Behavior in Mice 

      Bjørge, Monica Dahl; Hildrestrand, Gunn Annette; Scheffler, Katja; Suganthan, Rajikala; Rolseth, Veslemøy; Kusnierczyk, Anna; Rowe, Alexander D.; Vågbø, Cathrine Broberg; Vetlesen, Susanne; Eide, Lars; Slupphaug, Geir; Yusaku, Nakabeppu; Timothy, Bredy; Klungland, Arne; Bjørås, Magnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      Ogg1 and Mutyh DNA glycosylases cooperate to prevent mutations caused by 8-oxoG, a major premutagenic DNA lesion associated with cognitive decline. We have examined behavior and cognitive function in mice deficient of these ...
    • Transcriptome analysis of human OXR1 depleted cells reveals its role in regulating the p53 signaling pathway 

      Yang, Mingyi; Lin, Xiaolin; Rowe, Alexander D.; Rognes, Torbjørn; Eide, Lars; Bjørås, Magnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)
      The oxidation resistance gene 1 (OXR1) is crucial for protecting against oxidative stress; however, its molecular function is unknown. We employed RNA sequencing to examine the role of human OXR1 for genome wide transcription ...
