Our current interests include studies on the SUMO-1 modification system in fission yeast, and its role in the DNA damage response. In particular we are involved in identifying SUMO-1 modified targets that are required for the response to DNA damage. We are also interested in the role of the Rhp9, a protein that contains two BRCT domains. Acids Res . The role of Schizosaccharomyces pombe Rad32 and other DNA damage response proteins in non-homologous end joining and telomere length maintenance.
