Mind the replication gap

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2021
Unlike bacteria, mammalian cells need to complete DNA replication before segregating their chromosomes for the maintenance of genome integrity. Thus, cells have evolved efficient pathways to restore stalled and/or collapsed replication forks during S ...

The Ubiquitin Proteasome System in Genome Stability and Cancer

open access: yesCancers, 2021
Simple Summary Genomic instability is a major driving force of tumour development and evolution. Cells have developed sophisticated regulatory systems to preserve the stability of the genome and defects in these mechanisms can lead to the acquisition of ...

Genetic interaction between RLM1 and F-box motif encoding gene SAF1 contributes to stress response in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesGenes and Environment, 2021
Background Stress response is mediated by the transcription of stress-responsive genes. The F-box motif protein Saf1p is involved in SCF-E3 ligase mediated degradation of the adenine deaminase, Aah1p upon nutrient stress.

Mechanisms of genome stability maintenance during cell division.

open access: yesDNA Repair, 2021
During mitosis, chromosomes undergo extensive structural changes resulting in the formation of compact cylindrical bodies and in the termination of the bulk of DNA-dependent metabolic activities.

A nucleotide resolution map of Top2-linked DNA breaks in the yeast and human genome

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Topoisomerase 2 (Top2) is known to resolve DNA topological stress through double strand breaks (DSBs), yet Top2 inhibition has been reported to result in a significant amount of single-strand breaks (SSBs).

PLK1 facilitates chromosome biorientation by suppressing centromere disintegration driven by BLM-mediated unwinding and spindle pulling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The kinase PLK1 has important roles during cell division, including mitotic entry and bipolar spindle formation. Here, the authors show that PLK1 also functions in centromere protection, with loss leading to DNA unwinding by Bloom’s syndrome helicase and

Genome Stability Requires p53 [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2016
It is now clear that functional p53 is critical to protect the genome from alterations that lead to tumorigenesis. However, with the myriad of cellular stresses and pathways linked to p53 activation, much remains unknown about how p53 maintains genome stability and the proteins involved. The current understanding of the multiple ways p53 contributes to

Genome stability versus transcript diversity [PDF]

open access: yesDNA Repair, 2016
Our genome is protected from the introduction of mutations by high fidelity replication and an extensive network of DNA damage response and repair mechanisms. However, the expression of our genome, via RNA and protein synthesis, allows for more diversity in translating genetic information.

ARID1A mutation and genomic stability [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2020
We have recently discovered that AT-rich interactive domain-containing protein 1A (ARID1A) protects telomere cohesion through regulation of the cohesin subunit stromal antigen 1 (STAG1). ARID1A inactivation results in mitotic defects and negatively selects gross chromosomal aberrations, resulting in preservation of genomic stability in ARID1A-mutated ...

53BP1 can limit sister-chromatid rupture and rearrangements driven by a distinct ultrafine DNA bridging-breakage process

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Chromosome instability is associated with cancer formation. Here the authors identify in cultured human cancer cells a non-canonical DNA bridge breakage pathway leading to chromosome missegregation and rearrangements triggered by sister DNA ...
