Very excited to have contributed some of our structural biology expertise to this Johannes Walter story! Fantastic work by Tycho Mevissen (seriously, hire him!).
Thrilled to share our latest preprint Johannes Walter! We recapitulated transcription-coupled DNA repair in Xenopus egg extract and identified STK19 as a central player in TC-NER that links stalled Pol II to TFIIH. 🐸 🧬 ➡️ bit.ly/4fgl2Fq
