DNA–protein cross-links (DPCs) represent a severe form of DNA damage that can disrupt essential chromatin-based processes. Among them, DNA–histone cross-links (DHCs) occur frequently within ...
Illustration of H2B or H3 tail-less nucleosomes. Nucleosomes lacking H2B and H3 tails exhibit weakened interactions between histone tails and nucleosomal DNA, leading to less stable nucleosome ...
DNA lesions are repaired by a cut-and-remove process called nucleotide excision repair. An in vitro biochemically defined system has been developed in which six repair factors are sufficient to excise ...
