The PIN1–p38–CtIP signalling axis protects stalled replication forks from deleterious degradation

Abstract excerpt

Human CtIP plays a critical role in homologous recombination (HR) by promoting the resection of DNA double-strand breaks. Moreover, CtIP maintains genome stability through protecting stalled replication forks from nucleolytic degradation. However, the upstream signalling mechanisms governing the molecular switch between these two CtIP-dependent processes remain largely elusive. Here, we show that phosphorylation...
