DNA ligase and PCNA: Double-ring down to seal a break in DNA.

In this issue of Structure, Sverzhinsky et al. (2022) report structures of archaeal DNA ligase bound to the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) sliding clamp and a nicked DNA substrate. The… Click to show full abstract

In this issue of Structure, Sverzhinsky et al. (2022) report structures of archaeal DNA ligase bound to the proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) sliding clamp and a nicked DNA substrate. The structures provide snapshots of ligation intermediates, which reveal a dynamic nature of the complex and explain how PCNA stimulates the DNA ligase activity.
