The National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) has funded our project “Integrative Modeling of PCNA Assemblies Engaged in Genome Duplication and Repair” as a 5-year R01 grant.
Another paper, ‘Functional Dynamics in Replication Protein A DNA Binding and Protein Recruitment Domains’ has also appeared in Structure.
Our paper ‘Structurally Distinct Ubiquitin- and Sumo-Modified PCNA: Implications for Their Distinct Roles in the DNA Damage Response’ has been published by the journal Structure.
Our paper ‘Opening Pathways of the DNA Clamps Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen and Rad9-Rad1-Hus1’ has just been accepted by the journal Nucleic Acids Research. The recently solved structures of the DNA clamp protein 9-1-1 led to competing proposals regarding how 9-1-1 is loaded onto DNA. Through detailed subunit interface analysis, we identified the subunit interface […]
Our PNAS paper on PCNA ubiquitylation has been selected and evaluated by the post-publication peer review service Faculty of 1000 (F1000). According to the F1000 service this places our work in “.. the top 2% of published articles in biology and medicine”. The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory highlights our […]
Our collaborative efforts on PCNA ubiquitination with Berkeley Lab, Univ. of Iowa and Univ. of Delaware led to a combined experimental/computational publication currently in press in Proceedings of the National Academy of Science U.S.A.
