The Conformation of the Complementary Strand and the Deformation of the DNA Groove upon DDB2 Binding Justifies the Different Repair Rates for Cyclobutane Pyrimidine Dimers.

This study shows that DDB2 binding causes different DNA deformations depending on the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer type, which explains the varying repair rates observed in human cells.

Histone H3 cysteines as redox switches in the nucleosome: molecular modeling of S-sulfenylation and its structural consequences

This study investigates how oxidation of histone H3 cysteines affects nucleosome structure using molecular modeling, revealing mechanisms and structural consequences of S-sulfenylation.
