The evidence "for Asf1 accepting histones at the replication fork was really interesting to me, as no factor involved in chromatin disassembly at the DNA replication fork has been proposed to date to ...

Embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent stem cells that can produce all cell types of an organism. ES cells proliferate rapidly and have been thought to experience high levels of intrinsic ...

A fleeting DNA fold called i‑DNA can switch cancer‑related genes on and off, revealing a hidden structural weak point that ...

When an SSB appears, polymerase epsilon approaches the nick before retracing its steps thanks to its exonuclease, allowing fork reversal to take place. The nick is repaired as an SSB, and replication ...

CDT1 inhibits the helicase activity of the MCM complex, thereby suppressing nascent strand synthesis in DNA replication in cultured human cells. This action results in fork collapse and DNA damage, ...
