Excited to share our latest preprint by @mihyun-kim.bsky.social showing how DNA incision activities in nucleotide excision are regulated to ensure genomic stability. We show that interactions between TFIIH and XPG control the 5' incision by ERCC1-XPF. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Excited to share our latest preprint by @mihyun-kim.bsky.social. Our works adds another piece to the puzzle how DNA incision activities in DNA repair pathways are regulated to ensure genomic stability. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.05.20.655039v1

What are your plans for October 2025? It would be a fantastic time to visit Norway for the Endogenous DNA Damage and Repair conference with a stellar set of speaker covering a wide range of topics. www.endodnadamage.com

Happy to share our new paper with Goran Kokic and the Svejstrup lab in Cell!

We show that STK19 facilitates the clearance of lesion-stalled RNAPII during transcription-coupled DNA repair.

Great teamwork by Diana, Marta and Paula!

Great to join bluesky today, but even more excited to just have started a new position at the University of Pittsburgh Medical School and Hillman Cancer Center last week.
Looking forward to be working with a great group of colleagues in the Genome Stability Program here!
