Allosteric activation of the SPRTN protease by ubiquitin maintains genome stability

Abstract The DNA-dependent protease SPRTN maintains genome stability by degrading toxic DNA-protein crosslinks (DPCs). To understand how SPRTN’s promiscuous protease activity is confined to cleavage of crosslinked proteins, we reconstitute the repair of DPCs including their modification with SUMO an...
