Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are critical lesions in genomic DNA, and their accurate repair is essential for maintaining genome stability. The nuclear actin cytoskeleton has been implicated in homology
Emerging evidence indicates that tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) with the most abundant RNA modifications play an important role in many complex physiological and pathological processes. However, the
Homologous recombination repair (HRR), a crucial approach in DNA damage repair, is an attractive target in cancer therapy and drug design. The Bloom syndrome protein (BLM) is a 3′–5′ DNA helicase that
The UV component of sunlight is the major carcinogen involved in the etiology of skin cancers. We have studied the rare, hereditary syndrome xeroderma pigmentosum (XP), which is characterized by a ver
