PARP1 exhibits enhanced association and catalytic efficiency with γH2A.X-nucleosome

The poly(ADP-ribose) polymerases play a key role in maintaining genomic integrity by detecting DNA damage and mediating repair. Here the authors characterize the kinetics of PARP1 binding to a variety of nucleosomes harbouring DNA double-strand breaks.
