FANCD2 limits replication stress and genome instability in cells lacking BRCA2

Probing the synthetic lethal effect of FANCD2 deletion in BRCA2-deficient cells reveals independent roles of FANCD2 and BRCA2 in stabilizing stalled replication forks to maintain genome stability and promote cell survival. The tumor suppressor BRCA2 plays a key role in genome integrity by promoting...
