UFMylation orchestrates chromatin engagement of core NHEJ components to promote DNA double-strand break repair
2025-06-17
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are highly cytotoxic lesions whose misrepair can lead to genomic instability, cancer and developmental disorders. Through systematic screening of understudied ubiquitin-like modifiers (UBLs), we identify UFM1 as a previously unrecognised regulator of non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). Using a structure-guided chemical biology strategy, we develop a photo-crosslinka...
