Blm Helicase Facilitates Rapid Replication of Repetitive DNA Sequences in early Drosophila Development

Jolee M. Ruchert, Morgan M Brady, Susan McMahan…·Eric P. Stoffregen

This study shows that Blm helicase is essential for managing replication stress during early Drosophila development by facilitating replication through repetitive DNA sequences in syncytial cell cycles.
