Abstract excerpt
The cellular responses to double-stranded breaks (DSBs) typically involve the extensive accumulation of checkpoint proteins in chromatin surrounding the damaged DNA. One well-characterized example involves the checkpoint protein Crb2 in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. The accumulation of Crb2 at DSBs requires the C-terminal phosphorylation of histone H2A (known as gamma-H2A) by ATM family kinases in...
