    SIRT6 represses LINE1 retrotransposons by ribosylating KAP1 but this repression fails with stress and age

    L1 retrotransposons are an abundant class of transposable elements that pose a threat to genome stability and may have a role in age-related pathologies such as cancer. Recent evidence indicates that L1s becom...

    RecQ helicases; at the crossroad of genome replication, repair, and recombination

    DNA helicases are ubiquitous enzymes that unwind double-stranded DNA in an ATP-dependent and directionally specific manner. Such an action is essential for the processes of DNA repair, recombination, transcrip...
