The epigenetic regulator LSH maintains fork protection and genomic stability via MacroH2A deposition and RAD51 filament formation
LSH/HELLS is a chromatin remodeler promoting incorporation of histone variant macroH2A. Here the authors reveal a role for LSH in genome stability, in protecting nascent DNA at stalled forks mediated by macroH2A deposition and RAD51 filament formation.
