This research investigates how SUMO protein labeling regulates DNA repair after damage caused by sunlight and other stresses. Using yeast as a model organism, the study shows that SUMO helps recruit and remove repair proteins at damaged DNA sites. Understanding these signaling mechanisms may improve cancer prevention and treatment strategies.

This research investigates how PFAS “forever chemicals” transfer from fish to their eggs and impact embryonic development. Findings show PFAS increase cellular stress in rainbow trout eggs, potentially affecting survival. Understanding where these chemicals accumulate could inform environmental policy and help protect aquatic ecosystems from long-term generational contamination.
