Open AccessRUVBL1 ubiquitination by DTL promotes RUVBL1/2-β-catenin-mediated transcriptional regulation of NHEJ pathway and enhances radiation resistance in breast cancer
Radiotherapy effectiveness in breast cancer is limited by radioresistance. Nevertheless, the mechanisms behind radioresistance are not yet fully understood. RUVBL1 and RUVBL2, referred to as RUVBL1/2, are cruc...
