#LatestStudy by Faseela from @sabarinathan.bsky.social
@dimplenotani.bsky.social's lab shows CTCF/cohesin co-binding during replication triggers DNA damage; in DNA damage response(DDR)-defective tumors this may drive genomic instability.

CTCF/cohesin-binding sites are susceptible to replication-associated DNA damage and genomic instability in cancer cells Cell biology; Bioinformatics; Cancer

Congratulations Faseela!! Excited to share a new paper from her in the lab, published in #iScience, explores how replication-stress-associated DNA damage contributes to genome instability at CTCF/Cohesin-binding sites in cancer.

Sex and smoking bias in the selection of somatic mutations in human bladder - Nature Sex bias and association with smoking history identified in the landscape of driver mutations and clonal expansions in normal human bladder tissue may explain the higher bladder cancer risk in men and smokers.
