Journal ArticleDOI

The importance of repairing stalled replication forks

TL;DR: The bacterial SOS response to unusual levels of DNA damage has been recognized and studied for several decades, but pathways for re-establishing inactivated replication forks under normal growth conditions have received far less attention.
Journal ArticleDOI

Error-prone repair DNA polymerases in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

TL;DR: This review is devoted primarily to a discussion of Y-family polymerase members that exhibit error-prone behavior, which poses challenging questions about their roles in targeting and trafficking.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation-induced cytidine deaminase deaminates deoxycytidine on single-stranded DNA but requires the action of RNase

TL;DR: It is shown that AID catalyzes deamination of dC residues on single-stranded DNA in vitro but not on double-Stranded DNA, RNA–DNA hybrids, or RNA, suggesting a targeting mechanism for this enigmatic enzyme during somatic hypermutation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Processive AID-catalysed cytosine deamination on single-stranded DNA simulates somatic hypermutation.

TL;DR: It is shown in vitro that AID-catalysed C deaminations occur preferentially on 5′ WRC sequences in accord with SHM spectra observed in vivo, and AID exhibits a 15-fold preference for C deamination on the non-transcribed DNA strand exposed by RNA polymerase than the transcribed strand protected as a RNA–DNA hybrid.
