Here, we propose two non-mutually exclusive models to elucidate the rationale behind the recruitment of RPFs to DSB sites. First, RPFs circulate through the D compartment to process transcripts of the relocated DDR genes. Second, the D compartment serves as a 'post-translational modifications (PTMs) hub', altering RPF activity and leading to the production of unique DNA damage-induced transcripts, which are essential for orchestrating the DDR.</p>","PeriodicalId":54413,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Genetics","volume":" ","pages":"194-200"},"PeriodicalIF":13.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142683574","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
