Replication-induced DNA secondary structures drive fork uncoupling and breakage
2022-11-18
Abstract excerpt
Sequences that can form DNA secondary structures, such as G-quadruplexes (G4s) and intercalated-Motifs (iMs), are abundant in the human genome and play a range of physiological roles. However, they can also pose a challenge to the replication machinery and in turn threaten genome stability. Multiple lines of evidence suggest G4s interfere with replication, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Moreover, th...
