Submolecular video-imaging of the Smc5/6 complex topologically bound to DNA

This study uses high-speed atomic force microscopy to visualize the dynamics of the Smc5/6 complex interacting with DNA at submolecular resolution, revealing its DNA binding mechanisms.

ATAC-seq of Low-Input and Cryopreserved Primordial Germ Cells Reveals Functional Enhancers

The paper optimizes ATAC-seq for low-input and cryopreserved chicken primordial germ cells, identifying PGC-specific chromatin regions and their functional roles.

Minimal protein list for chromatin replication-coupled symmetric histone recycling revealed through in vitro reconstitution

The paper identifies a minimal protein list for symmetric histone recycling through in vitro reconstitution and analyzes the resulting histone distribution using a new pipeline.

Molecular mechanism of parental H3/H4 recycling at a replication fork

This study uses molecular dynamics simulations to investigate how H3/H4 tetramers are recycled during DNA replication in yeast, revealing pathways and regulatory factors involved in strand-specific recycling.

Rrp1 translocase and ubiquitin ligase activities restrict the genome destabilising effects of Rad51 in fission yeast

This study shows Rrp1 counteracts Rad51 activity in fission yeast through ATPase and ubiquitin ligase functions, preventing genome instability.

Real-time tracking reveals the catalytic process of Rad51-driven DNA strand exchange

This study reveals the roles of Rad51's DNA binding motifs in the catalytic process of DNA strand exchange during homologous recombination.

Rad51 Interaction Analysis Reveals a Functional Interplay Among Recombination Auxiliary Factors

The paper identifies two binding sites on Sfr1 that interact with Rad51 and shows that Swi5-Sfr1 requires Rad55-Rad57 for DNA repair.
