説明

<jats:title>A key player in cancer prevention</jats:title> <jats:p> Obstacles that block DNA replication can lead to chromosomal abnormalities and ultimately cancer. Fanconi anemia, for example, is caused by defects in the repair of DNA interstrand cross-links. The Fan1 nuclease was originally identified as a protein essential for this cross-link repair. Lachaud <jats:italic>et al</jats:italic> . now show that it does much more. It is recruited to stalled replication forks by ubiquitinated Fancd2 enabling the processing of these structures, thereby preventing chromosomal abnormalities and acting more broadly in cancer prevention. </jats:p> <jats:p> <jats:italic>Science</jats:italic> , this issue p. <jats:related-article xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" ext-link-type="doi" issue="6275" page="846" related-article-type="in-this-issue" vol="351" xlink:href="10.1126/science.aad5634">846</jats:related-article> </jats:p>
