Deskripsi

The 53BP1-RIF1 pathway is important for DNA repair. Here, the authors identified the histone chaperone ASF1, which functions as a suppressor of DNA end resection through changing high-order chromatin structure, as a partner of RIF1. This finding links DNA repair and dynamic changes of high-order chromatin structure.
