Journal ArticleDOI

Rad51-mediated replication fork reversal is a global response to genotoxic treatments in human cells

TL;DR: Genotoxic treatments in human cells consistently induce uncoupling of replication forks and their remodeling into four-way junctions by the RAD51 recombinase.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA2 drives processing and restart of reversed replication forks in human cells

TL;DR: Following prolonged genotoxic stress, DNA2 and WRN functionally interact to degrade reversed replication forks and promote replication restart, thereby preventing aberrant processing of unresolved replication intermediates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replication Fork Reversal Triggers Fork Degradation in BRCA2-defective Cells

TL;DR: It is proposed that BRCA2 is dispensable for RAD51-mediated fork reversal, but assembles stable RAD51 nucleofilaments on regressed arms, to protect them from degradation, and revealed how HR factors cooperate in fork remodeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Replication stress: getting back on track.

TL;DR: The emerging mechanisms of the replication-stress response in mammalian cells are reviewed and how they may influence the dynamics of the core DNA replication complex is considered.
