Boosting precision gene editing: Autophagy shifts DNA repair toward homologous recombination
Precision gene editing is crucial for treating genetic diseases, as it enables targeted correction of specific mutations. A Korean research team has become the first in the world to significantly ...
FEN1 endonuclease as a therapeutic target for human cancers with defects in homologous recombination
Synthetic lethality strategies for cancer therapy exploit cancer-specific genetic defects to identify targets that are uniquely essential to the survival of tumor cells. Here we show RAD27/FEN1, which ...
