ABSTRACT

In this study, Urulangodi et al. demonstrate that a SUMO-mediated regulatory mechanism enables recombination-mediated DNA damage tolerance (DDT) specifically at sites of compromised replication forks. By using a combination of genetic, biochemical, and molecular approaches, they identified a SUMO-like domain (SLD)-containing protein, Esc2, that allows optimal recruitment of the Rad51 recombinase at sites of perturbed replication, thus advancing our understanding of DDT and the pathways that support genome integrity.
