TTF2 drives mitotic replisome disassembly and MiDAS by coupling the TRAIP ubiquitin ligase to Polε
Mammalian cells frequently enter mitosis before DNA replication has finished, necessitating the rapid processing of replication forks to facilitate chromosome segregation. The TRAIP ubiquitin ligase i...
