Oncofetal HMGA2 effectively curbs unconstrained (+) and (−) DNA supercoiling
Abstract HMGA2 belongs to the family of the high mobility group (HMG) proteins. It binds DNA via three AT-hook domains to the minor groove of adenine-thymine (AT) rich DNA. Recently, a new function of HMGA2 as a replication fork chaperone that protects stem and cancer cells from replication fork col...
