Bloom helicase mediates formation of large single–stranded DNA loops during DNA end processing
Bloom syndrome is a genetic disorder associated with increased cancer risk and is caused by mutations in Bloom helicase. This study investigates the mechanisms used by BLM helicase as initiates the repair of broken chromosomes.
