We link replication fork plasticity to another important player of nuclear architecture, i.e. Lamin A/C, by showing that its nucleoplasmic fraction modulates heterochromatic marks and ADP ribosylation levels at replication factories, thereby controlling RECQ1-dependent restart of reversed forks!

Thrilled to share our latest work - now available in full in Nature Communications - led in my lab by @vcherdy.bsky.social, with key collaborative contributions from @nitikataneja.bsky.social .

Nucleoplasmic Lamin A/C controls replication fork restart upon stress by modulating local H3K9me3 and ADP-ribosylation levels
Nature Communications - Replication fork plasticity upon genotoxic stress is modulated by nuclear architectural components by elusive mechanisms. Here the authors implicate Lamin A/C – best...

Happy to have contributed to this interesting study from penengolab.bsky.social! another interesting example of how chromatin modifications and their readers orchestrate replication fork plasticity and protection πŸ‘πŸ‘‡
H2B ubiquitination by RNF20/40 safeguards replication fork dynamics in human cells, by facilitating fork reversal and recruiting RNF169 that protects from excessive degradation of nascent DNA
