The HMCES DNA-protein cross-link functions as an intermediate in DNA interstrand cross-link repair
{{output}}
The 5-hydroxymethylcytosine binding, embryonic stem-cell-specific (HMCES) protein forms a covalent DNA-protein cross-link (DPC) with abasic (AP) sites in single-stranded DNA, and the resulting HMCES-DPC is thought to suppress double-strand break formation in S... ...
