Journal ArticleDOI

A distinct role for recombination repair factors in an early cellular response to transcription-replication conflicts.

TL;DR: It is found that the TRe response relies on basal activity of the ATR kinase, yet it does not lead to hyperactivation of this key checkpoint protein, and specific abrogation of the T re response leads to DNA damage in mitosis, and promotes chromosome instability and cell death.
Journal ArticleDOI

Srs2 promotes Mus81–Mms4-mediated resolution of recombination intermediates

TL;DR: The data point to a coordinated role of Mus81–Mms4 and Srs2 in processing of recombination as well as replication intermediates.
Journal ArticleDOI

The transcription elongation factor Bur1-Bur2 interacts with replication protein A and maintains genome stability during replication stress.

TL;DR: A novel interaction between the transcription elongation factor Bur1-Bur2 and replication protein A (RPA), the eukaryotic single-stranded DNA-binding protein with functions in DNA repair, recombination, and replication is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ethanol exposure increases mutation rate through error-prone polymerases.

TL;DR: Exposure to sublethal ethanol concentrations causes DNA replication stress and an increased mutation rate, which suggests that the mutagenic effect of ethanol depends on a complex mechanism, where dysfunctional replication forks lead to recruitment of error-prone polymerases.
