| Review Title: | Advances in SUMO-based regulation of homologous recombination |
| Abstract: | Homologous Recombination (HR) is a critical DNA repair mechanism for a range of genome lesions. HR is responsible for mending DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) using intact template DNA. In addition, many HR proteins help cope with DNA lesions generated from DNA replication and telomere deficiency. The functions of HR proteins are often regulated by protein modifications that can quickly and reversibly adjust substrate proteins’ attributes. Sumoylation is one of the prevalent modifications that affects all steps of the HR processes and exerts diverse regulation on substrates. This review aims to summarize the most recent advances in our understanding of SUMO-based HR regulation and highlight some key questions that remain to be elucidated. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd |
