A novel DNA repair-independent role for Gen nuclease in promoting unscheduled polyploidy cell proliferation
2025-02-03
Abstract excerpt
Unscheduled whole genome duplication (WGD), also described as unscheduled or non-physiological polyploidy, can lead to genetic instability and is commonly observed in human cancers. WGD generates DNA damage due to scaling defects between replication factors and DNA content. As a result, DNA damage repair mechanisms are thought to be critical for ensuring cell viability and proliferation under these conditions. In...
