DNA-protein cross-links (DPCs) are common DNA lesions caused by endogenous, environmental, and chemotherapeutic agents. Cells are susceptible to these lesions during S phase, as DPCs impede replication fork progression and are likely to induce genomic instability, a cause of cancer and aging. Despite its relevance to human health, the repair of DPCs is poorly understood. Research on DPC repair has ...
