Figure 5. Roles of DNMT1 in genome integrity.

Figure 5.

DNMT1 plays several critical roles in maintaining genome stability. These include: altered activity of DNA methylation can result in mitotic catastrophe; deficiency of DNMT1 has been found to be genetically unstable; DNMT1 is recruited to sites of laser damage; DNMT1 interacts with the replisome clamp PCNA during DNA replication and repair processes.
