ARID1A stabilises non-homologous end joining factors at DNA breaks induced by the G4 ligand pyridostatin
ARID1A is a subunit of the BAF chromatin remodelling complex that is frequently mutated in cancer. It is challenging to predict how ARID1A loss impacts cancer therapy response because it participates ...

PBRM1 directs PBAF to pericentromeres and protects centromere integrity - Nature Communications
Centromere fragility can drive tumourigenesis, so protective mechanisms are important. Here, the authors suggest that the PBAF chromatin remodelling complex, which is frequently misregulated in cancer...
