Research Spotlight – Walter Chazin
Jun. 16, 2017—CSB Researcher Watler Chazin, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Fellow Aaron Ehlinger, Ph.D., and colleagues have shown that an ancient primase polymerase – PrimPol – helps replicate DNA from cell to cell where there is a damage to DNA. The study published in Nature Communications, demonstrate that PrimPol is recruited to reprime DNA synthesis through its interaction with...
