New work from Pablo Alcón in my group shows that DNA repair proteins FANCD2-FANCI slide on double-stranded DNA. Surprisingly they specifically recognise single-stranded junctions #cryoEM Our first foray into single molecule imaging thanks to David Rueda @MRC_LMB MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS) Thread here:
