The yeast Fun30 and human SMARCAD1 chromatin remodellers promote DNA end resection

…, E Martini, B Khadaroo, K Dubois, WW Wiegant… - Nature, 2012 - nature.com
Several homology-dependent pathways can repair potentially lethal DNA double-strand

…, NS Verkaik, T Turul, WW Wiegant… - The Journal of …, 2009 - Am Soc Clin Investig
Radiosensitive T – B – severe combined immunodeficiency (RS-SCID) is caused by defects
in the nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) DNA repair pathway, which results in failure of …

[PDF][PDF] PARP1 links CHD2-mediated chromatin expansion and H3. 3 deposition to DNA repair by non-homologous end-joining

MS Luijsterburg, I de Krijger, WW Wiegant, RG Shah… - Molecular cell, 2016 - cell.com
The response to DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) requires alterations in chromatin

Inhibitors of poly(ADP-ribose) (PAR) polymerase (PARPi) have recently entered the clinic for
the treatment of homologous recombination (HR)-deficient cancers. Despite the success of …

The NuRD chromatin–remodeling complex regulates signaling and repair of DNA damage

G Smeenk, WW Wiegant, H Vrolijk, AP Solari… - Journal of Cell …, 2010 - rupress.org
Cells respond to ionizing radiation (IR)–induced DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by
orchestrating events that coordinate cell cycle progression and DNA repair. How cells signal and …

[HTML][HTML] A new type of radiosensitive TBNK+ severe combined immunodeficiency caused by a LIG4 mutation

…, NS Verkaik, WW Wiegant… - The Journal of …, 2006 - Am Soc Clin Investig
V(D)J recombination of Ig and TCR loci is a stepwise process during which site-specific
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are made by RAG1/RAG2, followed by DSB repair by …

[PDF][PDF] ZMYND8 co-localizes with NuRD on target genes and regulates poly (ADP-ribose)-dependent recruitment of GATAD2A/NuRD to sites of DNA damage

…, RR Edupuganti, MP Baltissen, WW Wiegant… - Cell reports, 2016 - cell.com
NuRD (nucleosome remodeling and histone deacetylase) is a versatile multi-protein complex
