Abstract excerpt
The tumor suppressor protein, p53, utilizes multiple mechanisms to ensure faithful transmission of the genome including regulation of DNA replication, repair, and recombination. Monitoring these pathways may involve direct binding of p53 to the DNA intermediates of these processes. In this study, we generated templates resembling stalled replication forks and utilized electron microscopy to examine p53...
