    Mono-methylated histones control PARP-1 in chromatin and transcription

    Gbolahan Bamgbose, Guillaume Bordet ... Alexei Tulin
    Genome-wide PARP-1 binding analysis advances the understanding of molecular mechanisms governing gene regulation in response to developmental cues and environmental stressors.

    Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 searches DNA via a ‘monkey bar’ mechanism

    Johannes Rudolph, Jyothi Mahadevan ... Karolin Luger
    By moving between DNA segments like a child swinging on monkey bars, poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 explores possible DNA damage sites more effectively.

    SIRT6 is a DNA double-strand break sensor

    Lior Onn, Miguel Portillo ... Debra Toiber
    Hundreds of proteins are involved in the DNA damage response but only three sensors for DSB were known but now SIRT6 is identified as a fourth DSB sensor.

    Blockade of the LRP16-PKR-NF-κB signaling axis sensitizes colorectal carcinoma cells to DNA-damaging cytotoxic therapy

    Xiaolei Li, Zhiqiang Wu ... Weidong Han
    Leukemia-Related Protein 16 (LRP16), a member of the macro domain family, plays a crucial role in orchestrating genotoxicity-initiated NF-κB signaling in the colon and the pathophysiological relevance of NF-κB activation induced by LRP16 in colonic cell survival/recovery from extrinsic DNA damage.

    The out-of-field dose in radiation therapy induces delayed tumorigenesis by senescence evasion

    Erwan Goy, Maxime Tomezak ... Corinne Abbadie
    Irradiation of normal human fibroblasts and mice in conditions mimicking standard external X-ray radiotherapy protocols highlights that noncancerous cells surrounding the planning target volume accumulate DNA single-strand breaks but almost no double-strand breaks, putting them in a pre-cancerous senescent state.

    Hyperactivation of ERK by multiple mechanisms is toxic to RTK-RAS mutation-driven lung adenocarcinoma cells

    Arun M Unni, Bryant Harbourne ... Harold Varmus
    Cancer cells driven by mutations in KRAS or EGFR are dependent on DUSP6 to prevent ERK-induced cell death, creating a novel vulnerability for targeted therapy.

    Co-regulation and function of FOXM1/RHNO1 bidirectional genes in cancer

    Carter J Barger, Linda Chee ... Adam R Karpf
    FOXM1 is co-expressed with its bidirectional gene partner RHNO1, and the two genes promote DNA repair, cell growth and survival, and chemotherapy resistance in ovarian cancer.

    Protection of nascent DNA at stalled replication forks is mediated by phosphorylation of RIF1 intrinsically disordered region

    Sandhya Balasubramanian, Matteo Andreani ... Michela Di Virgilio
    Replication stress induces phosphorylation events within RIF1 intrinsically disordered region that are essential for RIF1's role in DNA replication fork protection.

    NMNAT promotes glioma growth through regulating post-translational modifications of P53 to inhibit apoptosis

    Jiaqi Liu, Xianzun Tao ... R Grace Zhai
    NMNAT is genetically required for glioma development and promotes glioma growth by allowing a higher tolerance to DNA damage and inhibiting DNA damage-p53-caspase-3 apoptosis signaling pathway by enhancing NAD+-dependent posttranslational modifications (PTMs) poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation (PARylation) and deacetylation of p53.

    Sharpin prevents skin inflammation by inhibiting TNFR1-induced keratinocyte apoptosis

    Snehlata Kumari, Younes Redouane ... Fumiyo Ikeda
    The adaptor proteins FADD and TRADD play an important role in the Sharpin-dependent anti-apoptosis signaling pathway in keratinocytes and regulate skin homeostasis.
