Journal ArticleDOI

Functions of Replication Protein A as a Sensor of R Loops and a Regulator of RNaseH1

TL;DR: In addition to sensing DNA damage and replication stress, RPA is a sensor of R loops and a regulator of RNaseH1, extending the versatile role of RPA in suppression of genomic instability.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic Association of ORCA with Prereplicative Complex Components Regulates DNA Replication Initiation

TL;DR: It is found that ORCA is required for the G1-to-S-phase transition in human cells and the dynamic association of ORCA with pre-RC components modulates the assembly of its interacting partners on chromatin and facilitates DNA replication initiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The preRC protein ORCA organizes heterochromatin by assembling histone H3 lysine 9 methyltransferases on chromatin

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ORCA acts as a scaffold for the establishment of H3K9 KMT complex and its association and activity at specific chromatin sites is crucial for the organization of heterochromatin structure.
Journal ArticleDOI

BEND3 represses rDNA transcription by stabilizing a NoRC component via USP21 deubiquitinase

TL;DR: It is demonstrated in mammalian cells that BANP, E5R, and Nac1 (BEN) domain 3 (BEND3), a quadruple BEN domain-containing protein, localizes in nucleoli and binds to ribosomal RNA gene promoters to help repress rRNA genes.
