Evidence that the Nijmegen breakage syndrome protein, an early sensor of double-strand DNA breaks (DSB), is involved in HIV-1 post-integration repair by recruiting the ataxia telangiectasia-mutated kinase in a process similar to, but distinct from, cellulJohanna A Smith
Division of Infectious Diseases Center for Human Virology, Kimmel Cancer Center, Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, PA, USA
Virol J 5:11. 2008..A model is proposed emphasizing similarities and differences between PIR and DSB repair. Differences between the pathways may eventually allow strategies to block PIR while still allowing DSB repair...
