Rad18 mediates specific mutational signatures and shapes the genomic landscape of carcinogen-induced tumorsin vivo
6 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
Abstract The E3 ubiquitin ligase Rad18 promotes a damage-tolerant and error-prone mode of DNA replication termed trans-lesion synthesis that is pathologically activated in cancer. However, the impact of vertebrate Rad18 on cancer genomes is not known. To determine how Rad18 affects mutagenesis in vivo, we have developed and implemented a novel computational pipeline to analyze genomes of carcinogen (7,...
