Polyubiquitinated PCNA promotes alternative lengthening of telomeres by inducing break-induced replication

S. Kim, N. Kang, J. S. Ra, S. H. Park, K. Myung, K.-y. Lee

The paper shows polyubiquitinated PCNA promotes break-induced replication at telomeres and fragile sites by recruiting SLX4, leading to telomere damage and DNA synthesis.

Ancestral Roles of the Fam20C Family of Secreted Protein Kinases Revealed by Functional Analysis in C. elegans

A. Gerson-Gurwitz, C. A. Worby, K.-Y. Lee, R. Khaliullin, J. Bouffard, D. Cheerambathur, E. J. Cram, K. Oegema, J. E. Dixon, A. Desai

This study identifies FAMK-1, the C. elegans ortholog of Fam20C, as essential for fertility, embryogenesis, and development through its role in maintaining cellular partitions and responding to mechanical strain.

CYK-4 functions independently of its centralspindlin partner ZEN-4 to cellularize oocytes in germline syncytia

K.-Y. Lee, R. A. Green, E. Gutierrez, J. S. Gomez-Cavazos, I. Kolotuev, S. Wang, A. Desai, A. Groisman, K. Oegema

This study shows CYK-4, but not ZEN-4, is required for oocyte cellularization in C. elegans germline syncytia through a C1-GAP module that targets it to intercellular bridges.
