Regulation of structure-selective nucleases by the SLX4 scaffold in ICL repair and HJ resolution
Mammalian SLX4 is a scaffold protein that directs the formation of a multi-protein DNA processing toolkit that includes three different structure-selective endonucleases: XPF-ERCC1, MUS81-EME1 and SLX1. The SLX4 complex has been shown to have essential roles in repair of DNA interstrand crosslinks …

Transcriptome Analysis of Sea Lamprey Embryogenesis
… (signal transducer), PCNA (DNA replication), SLX4 (endonuclease), and PXN (focal adhesion) were selected for their NGS expression levels, GO annotations, and biological function significance. Their NGS expression levels were verified using Real-Time PCR (qPCR). TGFBR1 was up-regulated in the …

Identification of low-penetrance alleles, genetic modifiers and mutation analysis in familial breast cancer cases
… Fanconi Anemia (FA) genes <i>PALB2</i> and <i>SLX4</i> as breast cancer predisposing loci. In the <i>PALB2</i> screening, I observed a frequency of deleterious mutation of 2.1 % in familial cases recruited in cancer centers in Milan. Interestingly, I also identified the recurrent mutation …

THE DNA DAMAGE CHECKPOINT REGULATES MISMATCH REPAIR COMPLEXES DURING SINGLE STRAND ANNEALING PATHWAY
… endonuclease complex together with Saw1 and Slx4. Furthermore, Slx4 with Rtt107 limits the binding of the DDC mediator Rad9/53BP1 in proximity of the DSB, reducing checkpoint signalling. We observed that the deletion of RAD9 gene rescues the defects in SSA of both rad1Δ and slx4Δ mutant …

Fanconi Anaemia DNA crosslink repair factors protect against LINE-1 retrotransposition during mammalian development
… the recombinant FA ICL repair incision complex (SLX4-XPF-ERCC1), I show that it can cleave intermediates of retrotransposition, aborting new integrations. I show that all stages of FA ICL repair, defective in the human disease FA, are required to prevent retrotransposition in vivo. I find that FA …

Mechanistic Understanding of the Role of TRF1 in Telomere Replication
… break (DSB) formation, in this case by the SLX4/SLX1 nuclease. The DSBs are repaired by POLD3/POLD4-dependent break-induced replication (BIR), resulting in fragile telomeres containing conservatively replicated DNA. BIR also promotes fragile telomere formation in cells with FokI-induced …
