Pathogenic variants in RAD51C confer an elevated risk of breast and ovarian cancer, while individuals homozygous for specific RAD51C alleles may develop Fanconi anemia. Using saturation genome editing (SGE), we functionally assess 9,188 uni...
In vivo DNA replication dynamics unveil aging-dependent replication stress [0.03%]
体内DNA复制动力学揭示了与衰老相关的复制压力
