Genome stability: a new member of the RFC family

Curr Biol. 2003 Nov 11;13(22):R873-5. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2003.10.048.

Abstract

Three distinct forms of replication factor C are known to play vital roles in genome replication and integrity in eukaryotic cells. A fourth such complex has recently been identified; initial results suggest that this new family member plays an important role during S phase.
