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.
Local regulation of the Srs2 helicase by the SUMO-like domain protein Esc2 promotes recombination at sites of stalled replication
