Arabidopsis thaliana mutants altered in homologous recombination.
Homologous recombination contributes both to the generation of allelic diversity and to the preservation of genetic information. In plants, a lack of suitable experimental material has prevented studies of the regulatory and enzymatic aspects of recombination in somatic and meiotic cells. We have isolated nine Arabidopsis thaliana mutants hypersensitive to x-ray irradiation (xrs) and examined t...
متن کاملThe INO80 protein controls homologous recombination in Arabidopsis thaliana.
Homologous recombination (HR) serves a dual role in providing genetic flexibility and in maintaining genome integrity. Little is known about the regulation of HR and other repair pathways in the context of chromatin. We report on a mutant affected in the expression of the Arabidopsis INO80 ortholog of the SWI/SNF ATPase family, which shows a reduction of the HR frequency to 15% of that in wild-...
متن کاملSelectable viruses and altered susceptibility mutants in Arabidopsis thaliana.
The genetic basis for susceptibility or nonsusceptibility of plants to viruses is understood poorly. Two selectable tobacco etch virus (TEV) strains were developed for identification of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants with either gain-of-susceptibility or loss-of-susceptibility phenotypes. These strains conferred a conditional-survival phenotype to Arabidopsis based on systemic expression of herbi...
متن کاملRecombination analysis in Arabidopsis Thaliana
Genetic recombination is the process by which a double-stranded DNA molecule breaks and joins with another. Chromosomal crossover, for example, is a recombination event where a pair of homologous parental chromosomes exchange their DNA to form a new organism. Although recombination events can occur at any region across the genome, it has been shown that there are narrow regions (often about 1-2...
متن کاملBRCC36A is epistatic to BRCA1 in DNA crosslink repair and homologous recombination in Arabidopsis thaliana
BRCA1 is a well-known tumor suppressor protein in mammals, involved in multiple cellular processes such as DNA repair, chromosome segregation and chromatin remodeling. Interestingly, homologs of BRCA1 and several of its complex partners are also found in plants. As the respective mutants are viable, in contrast to mammalian mutants, detailed analyses of their biological role is possible. Here w...
