The DNA damage response acts as a safeguardagainst harmful DNA–RNA hybrids ofdifferent origins
(EMBO Press, 2019-07-24)
Despite playing physiological roles in specific situations, DNA–RNA hybrids threat genome integrity. To investigate how cells do counteract spontaneous DNA–RNA hybrids, here we screen an siRNA library covering 240 human ...

What causes an RNA-DNA hybrid to compromise genome integrity?
(Elsevier, 2019)
Transcription is a source of genome instability that stimulates mutation and recombination. Part of the damage produced by transcription is mediated by R-loops, non-B DNA structures that normally form by the re-annealing ...

Yeast Sen1 helicase protects the genome from transcription-associated instability
(Elsevier, 2011-01-06)
Sen1 of S. cerevisiae is a known component of the NRD complex implicated in transcription termination of nonpolyadenylated as well as some polyadenylated RNA polymerase II transcripts. We now show that Sen1 helicase possesses ...

A genome-wide function of THSC/TREX-2 at active genes prevents transcription–replication collisions
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
The THSC/TREX-2 complex of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mediates the anchoring of transcribed genes to the nuclear pore, linking transcription elongation with mRNA export and genome stability, as shown for specific reporters. ...

Roles of human POLD1 and POLD3 in genome stability
(Nature, 2016)
DNA replication is essential for cellular proliferation. If improperly controlled it can constitute a major source of genome instability, frequently associated with cancer and aging. POLD1 is the catalytic subunit and POLD3 ...

Control of the function of the transcription and repair factor TFIIH by the action of the cochaperone Ydj1
(National Academy of Sciences, 2011)
Yeast rad3-102, a mutant of the TFIIH complex involved in nucleotide excision repair (NER) and transcription, can perform NER initial steps but not late steps of postincision gap filing. Because removal of early-acting NER ...

Role for RNA: DNA hybrids in origin-independent replication priming in a eukaryotic system
(National Academy of Sciences, 2015)
DNA replication initiates at defined replication origins along eukaryotic chromosomes, ensuring complete genome duplication within a single S-phase. A key feature of replication origins is their ability to control the onset ...

The Role of Replication-Associated Repair Factors on R-Loops
(MDPI, 2017)
The nascent RNA can reinvade the DNA double helix to form a structure termed the R-loop, where a single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) is accompanied by a DNA-RNA hybrid. Unresolved R-loops can impede transcription and replication ...

UAP56/DDX39B is a major cotranscriptional RNA–DNA helicase that unwinds harmful R loops genome-wide
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2020)
Nonscheduled R loops represent a major source of DNA damage and replication stress. Cells have different ways to prevent R-loop accumulation. One mechanism relies on the conserved THO complex in association with cotranscriptional ...
