Stimulation of Flap Endonuclease-1 by the Bloom's Syndrome Protein

Abstract excerpt

Bloom's syndrome (BS) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder associated with genomic instability and an elevated risk of cancer. Cellular features of BS include an accumulation of abnormal replication intermediates and increased sister chromatid exchange. Although it has been suggested that the underlying defect responsible for hyper-recombination in BS cells is a temporal delay in the maturation of DNA...
