Abstract:The nucleus of mammalian cells is highly compartmentalized by nuclear bodies, including nuclear speckles. While nuclear bodies are known to function in regulating gene expression, their involvement in DNA repair has not been actively investigated. Here, our focused screen for nuclear speckle factors involved in homologous recombination (HR), which is a faithful DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair mechanism, revealed that nuclear speckle factors regulating transcription are potentially involved in the regulati… Show more
