The nuclear kinesin KIF18B promotes 53BP1-mediated DNA double-strand break repair

Summary: 53BP1 is recruited to chromatin in the vicinity of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). We identify the nuclear kinesin, KIF18B, as a 53BP1-interacting protein and define its role in 53BP1-mediated DSB repair. KIF18B is a molecular motor protein involved in destabilizing astral microtubules dur...
