“…5). Polymerizing nuclear actin may act as a scaffold for other repair proteins at sites of DNA damage (Andrin et al, 2012), locally alter nuclear actin dynamics leading to downstream changes in transcription and chromatin remodeling (de Lanerolle and Serebryannyy, 2011;Serebryannyy et al, 2016a,b), or tether repair factories to the nuclear matrix and other nuclear subcompartments (Koehler and Hanawalt, 1996;Mahen et al, 2013;Marnef and Legube, 2017). Notably, lamins are known to regulate genomic stability as well as DNA damage repair (Gonzalo, 2014) and have been shown to interact with nuclear actin (Ho et al, 2013;Plessner et al, 2015;Simon et al, 2010).…”
