Abstract:Accurate genome replication is essential for all life and a key mechanism of disease prevention, underpinned by the ability of cells to respond to replicative stress and protect stalled replication forks. All such responses rely on the formation of Replication Protein A (RPA)-ssDNA complexes, yet supra-physiological binding of RPA to ssDNA is toxic. How cells regulate RPA availability to promote fork protection and genome stability is largely unknown. Here we establish that during replication excess RPA is seq… Show more
