| Summary |
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nPPP4R3B functions as the regulatory subunit of a mammalian PP4 phosphatase complex—alongside PP4C and PP4R2—that is critical for the dephosphorylation of gamma‐H2AX induced by ATR during DNA replication. By directly dephosphorylating gamma‐H2AX on mononucleosomes without altering ATR or checkpoint kinase activity, the PPP4R3B-containing complex facilitates the resolution of gamma‐H2AX foci that mark DNA double‐strand breaks arising during replication. This targeted dephosphorylation event is integral to enabling efficient repair of replication‐mediated DNA damage, distinguishing it from other phosphatase activities involved in addressing exogenous DNA insults."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "1"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": ""}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nFurthermore, silencing of the PP4 complex—including loss of PPP4R3B—leads to a failure in resolving gamma‐H2AX foci, resulting in compromised repair of replication‐associated DNA breaks and heightened sensitivity to DNA replication inhibitors.
