New research article on histone chaperones with central functions in chromatin repair
In this paper, we identify new players in chromatin repair through a novel approach for the proteomic profiling of DNA repair patches in human cells. Thus, we expand the histone chaperone network involved in repair-coupled chromatin restoration and highlight a...
