GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. The authors find that the 53BP1 orthologue Crb2 and Rev7 specifically repress long-range resection through the RecQ helicase-dependent pathway, thereby preventing hyper-resection.
    Title: Rev7 and 53BP1/Crb2 prevent RecQ helicase-dependent hyper-resection of DNA double-strand breaks.
  2. The data supports a model such that elevated Cdc2 activity delays the transition of Crb2 from its G1 to its G2 mode by blocking Srs2 DNA helicase and Casein Kinase 1 (Hhp1).
    Title: Hyperactive Cdc2 kinase interferes with the response to broken replication forks by trapping S.pombe Crb2 in its mitotic T215 phosphorylated state.
  3. These results suggest that the main role of Crb2 in DNA damage checkpoint signaling is recruiting Chk1 to sites of DNA lesions.
    Title: Phosphorylation-dependent interactions between Crb2 and Chk1 are essential for DNA damage checkpoint.
  4. Findings argue that binding of the Crb2 BRCT repeats to pH2AX is critical for checkpoint activity and provide new insight into the mechanisms of chromatin-mediated genome stability.
    Title: Requirement for the phospho-H2AX binding module of Crb2 in double-strand break targeting and checkpoint activation.
  5. Data show that polar interactions of Crb2 serine-548 and lysine-619 with the phosphate group of phospho-H2A (gamma-H2A) are critical for Crb2 IRIF formation and checkpoint function.
    Title: BRCT domain interactions with phospho-histone H2A target Crb2 to chromatin at double-strand breaks and maintain the DNA damage checkpoint.
  6. Structural and functional analysis of the crb2 domain reveals distinct roles in checkpoint signaling and DNA damage repair.
    Title: Structural and functional analysis of the Crb2-BRCT2 domain reveals distinct roles in checkpoint signaling and DNA damage repair.
  7. Histone modifications cooperate in the same Crb2 recruitment pathway, which also requires the Tudor and BRCT motifs in Crb2.
    Title: Histone modification-dependent and -independent pathways for recruitment of checkpoint protein Crb2 to double-strand breaks.
  8. Full Crb2 activity requires phosphorylation of threonine-215 by Cdc2.
    Title: Cooperative control of Crb2 by ATM family and Cdc2 kinases is essential for the DNA damage checkpoint in fission yeast.
  9. When the Crb2 mutants experience damaged replication forks upon inhibition of the religation activity of topoisomerase I, the Chk1 DNA damage pathway induces sustained activation of the spindle checkpoint
    Title: The fission yeast Crb2/Chk1 pathway coordinates the DNA damage and spindle checkpoint in response to replication stress induced by topoisomerase I inhibitor.
