The ATR/Chk1 pathway is a critical surveillance network that maintains genomic integrity during DNA replication by stabilizing the forks normal to avoid stress. One of many differences between cells and cancer amount stress occurs replication. Cancer with activated oncogenes generate increased levels This creates an dependency on in opens up opportunity preferentially kill inhibiting this pathway. In support idea, we have identified small molecule termed HAMNO...

Replication protein A (RPA), essential for DNA replication, repair and damage signalling, possesses six ssDNA-binding domains (DBDs), including DBD-F on the N-terminus of largest subunit, RPA70. This domain functions as a binding site p53 other proteins that contain amphipathic alpha helical domains. Here, we demonstrate direct both ssDNA transactivation 2 (p53TAD2) to DBD-F, well DBD-F-directed dsDNA strand separation by RPA, all which are inhibited fumaropimaric acid (FPA). FPA binds...

Cells respond to DNA double-strand breaks by initiating DSB repair and ensuring a cell cycle checkpoint. The primary responder is non-homologous end joining, which an error-prone pathway. However, when DSBs are generated after replication in the G2 phase of cycle, second pathway, homologous recombination, can come into action. Both ATM ATR important for DSB-induced checkpoint responses. One method working together through resection DSBs. As readout marker resection, RPA phosphorylated at...
