Crystal structure of a 4-thiouridine synthetase-RNA complex reveals specificity of tRNA U8 modification.

abstract：:Abasic (AP) sites, the most common DNA lesions are frequently associated with double strand breaks (DSBs) and can pose a block to the final ligation. In many prokaryotes, nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ) repair of DSBs relies on a two-component machinery constituted by the ring-shaped DNA-binding Ku that recruits the ...
