UFMylation orchestrates chromatin engagement of core NHEJ components to promote DNA double-strand break repair

Zijuan Wang, Benjamin M. Foster, Isabelle Cristine da Costa…·Christine K. Schmidt

The paper identifies UFM1 as a regulator of NHEJ by orchestrating chromatin engagement of core components, linking UFMylation defects to DSB repair defects.

Ubiquitylation of nucleic acids by DELTEX ubiquitin E3 ligase DTX3L

Kang Zhu, Chatrin Chatrin, Marcin J. Suskiewicz…·Ivan Ahel

This study shows that nucleic acids can be ubiquitylated by DTX3L, an E3 ligase, and this modification is reversible by DUBs like USP2 and SARS-CoV-2 PLpro.
