“…Accumulation of other CRL4 substrates such as the histone methyltransferase SET8 or the CDK inhibitor p21, which is required for proper S-phase progression, prevention of spontaneous DNA damage and activation of the G2/M checkpoint, can also generate DSB (Jorgensen, Elvers et al 2007;Abbas, Sivaprasad et al 2008;Huen, Sy et al 2008;Kim, Starostina et al 2008;Liu, Lee et al 2009;Tardat, Brustel et al 2010). The BUB3-mediated delay in the metaphase-anaphase transition, followed by abnormal chromosomal segregation in RepID-deficient cells are also possibly associated with the occurrence of DNA damage foci (Janssen, van der Burg et al 2011, Jang, Nathans et al 2020a. RepID's functional domains mediate its interaction with chromatin and might underlie its role in regulating the DNA damage response.…”
