Altered hematopoiesis in mice lacking DNA polymerase mu is due to inefficient double-strand break repair. [PDF]
Polymerase micro (Polmicro) is an error-prone, DNA-directed DNA polymerase that participates in non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ) repair. In vivo, Polmicro deficiency results in impaired Vkappa-Jkappa recombination and altered somatic hypermutation and ...

Mechanisms of PARP inhibitor resistance in cancer and insights into the DNA damage response
Editorial summary Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARPi) have entered the clinic for the treatment of patients with cancers that lack homology-directed DNA repair, but drug resistance remains a clinical hurdle.

New link between the RNA polymerase II-CTD and replication stress
Conflicts between transcription and replication are a major source of replication stress. Our recent findings show that proper dephosphorylation of Serine 5 in the carboxy-terminal domain (CTD) of DNA-directed RNA polymerase II subunit RPB1 is needed to ...

Amplification of 4–9-kb Human Genomic DNA Flanking a Known Site Using a Panhandle PCR Variant
We present a method for the in vitro amplification of >6.0 kb of DNA flanking a known site. This is accomplished by ligating an oligonucleotide to create an inverted repeat of a portion of the known sequence, followed by single-primer polymerase chain ...

The ability to form homodimers is essential for RDM1 to function in RNA-directed DNA methylation. [PDF]
RDM1 (RNA-DIRECTED DNA METHYLATION1) is a small plant-specific protein required for RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM). RDM1 interacts with RNA polymerase II (Pol II), ARGONAUTE4 (AGO4), and the de novo DNA methyltransferase DOMAINS REARRANGED ...
