    SERBP1 interacts with PARP1 and is present in PARylation-dependent protein complexes regulating splicing, cell division, and ribosome biogenesis

    Kira Breunig, Xuifen Lei ... Luiz O Penalva
    SERBP1 is associate with protein complexes regulating splicing, cell division, and ribosomal biogenesis that likely depend on G quadruplex (G4) binding and polyADP-ribosylation (PARylation) for their assembly and function.
