SPINDOC is known to interact with Spindlin1 (SPIN1), a histone code effector protein. Here, the authors show that SPINDOC is distributed between two distinct protein complexes, one comprising SPIN1 and the other one with PARP1. Their results suggest a role for SPINDOC in the regulation of PARP1- mediated PARylation and the DNA damage response.
