DNA damage induced during mitosis undergoes DNA repair synthesis

V. Gomez Godinez, S. Kabbara, S. Cohen, A. Sherman, T. Wu, X. Kong, J. L. Maravillas-Montero, Z. Shi, D. Preece, K. Yokomori, M. Berns

This study uses laser-induced DNA damage in mitotic cells to show DNA repair occurs, is affected by DNA-PKcs and ATM, and reveals 25% of damaged cells proceed to mitosis.

Biphasic recruitment of TRF2 to DNA damage sites promotes non-sister chromatid homologous recombination repair

X. Kong, G. Cruz, S. Trinh, X.-D. Zhu, M. Berns, K. Yokomori

This study identifies a two-step recruitment mechanism of TRF2 to DNA damage sites and shows its role in non-sister chromatid homologous recombination repair.

A positive feedback-based mechanism for constriction rate acceleration during cytokinesis in C. elegans

R. Khaliullin, R. Green, L. Shi, M. Berns, J. S. Gomez-Cavazos, A. Desai, K. Oegema

The paper investigates cytokinesis in C. elegans embryos, showing that positive feedback between myosin and cortical flow accelerates ring constriction rate as the ring shrinks.
