Abstract:Conflicts between replication and transcription are common source of genome instability and many factors participate in prevention or removal of harmful R-loops. Here, we demonstrate that a WRNIP1-mediated response plays an important role in counteracting accumulation of aberrant Rloops. Using human cellular models with compromised ATR-dependent checkpoint activation, we show that WRNIP1 is stabilised in chromatin and is needed for maintaining genome integrity by mediating the ATM-dependent phosphorylation of … Show more
