Abstract excerpt
The SMC-5/6 complex safeguards genome stability through the coordinated action of its core SMC proteins and associated NSE subunits. NSE-1 is a key component of the complex and is essential for DNA repair, yet it remains poorly characterized in Caenorhabditis elegans. To further elucidate the functional mechanisms of NSE-1, we performed an EMS-based forward genetic screen in an nse-1::gfp(wsh1) reporter strain to...
