Clues to transcription/replication collision‐induced DNA damage: it was RNAP, in the chromosome, with the fork

MB Cooke, C Herman, P Sivaramakrishnan - FEBS letters, 2025 - Wiley Online Library
DNA replication and RNA transcription processes compete for the same DNA template and,
thus, frequently collide. These transcription–replication collisions are thought to lead to …

Developmental signals control chromosome segregation fidelity during pluripotency and neurogenesis by modulating replicative stress

Human development relies on the correct replication, maintenance and segregation of our
genetic blueprints. How these processes are monitored across embryonic lineages, and why …

The double life of mammalian DNA replication origins

O Hyrien, G Guilbaud, T Krude - Genes & Development, 2025 - genesdev.cshlp.org

Pluripotency factors enhance the firing efficiency of late DNA replication origins in mouse embryonic stem cells

E Rodriguez-Carballo, VS Dionellis, SG Ntallis… - bioRxiv, 2025 - biorxiv.org
DNA replication initiates at genomic loci known as origins, which fire according to a
spatiotemporal program, still not yet well-defined in mammals. Here, we investigated …

DNA replication dynamics are associated with genome composition in Plasmodium species

FIG Totañes, SE Chapman, SK Rai, MJK Jones… - bioRxiv, 2024 - biorxiv.org
Plasmodium species have variable genome compositions: many have an A/T-content of at
