Abstract excerpt
The mechanisms used by checkpoints to identify DNA lesions are poorly understood and may involve the function of repair proteins. Looking for mutants specifically defective in activating the checkpoint following UV lesions, but proficient in the response to methyl methane sulfonate and double-strand breaks, we isolated cdu1-1, which is allelic to RAD14, the homolog of human XPA, involved in lesion recognition...
