Really happy to share our paper out today @ Molecular Cell, where we elucidate the pivotal roles of BRCA1-BARD1 ligase in not only early DNA end resection but also subsequent stages in homology-directed repair. Congratulations to all the authors! sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Really excited (and a little jealous) that @tylergfranklin is spending the week up in the @KlevitLab at @UWBiochemistry. Can’t wait to see what kind of data he comes home with. I wonder if my old lab bench is available…

Excited to finally share our new work from the @Freudlab where we determine how the critical DNA repair protein APE1 recognizes and processes DNA damage in the nucleosome. Updated tweet 👇 (1/n) biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
