End resection at double-strand breaks: mechanism and regulation.
RecA/Rad51 catalyzed pairing of homologous DNA strands, initiated by polymerization of the recombinase on single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), is a universal feature of homologous recombination (HR). Generation of ssDNA from a double-strand break (DSB) requires nucleolytic degradation of the 5'-terminated strands to generate 3'-ssDNA tails, a process referred to as 5'-3' end resection. The RecBCD helic...
متن کاملDna2 initiates resection at clean DNA double-strand breaks
Nucleolytic resection of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) is essential for both checkpoint activation and homology-mediated repair; however, the precise mechanism of resection, especially the initiation step, remains incompletely understood. Resection of blocked ends with protein or chemical adducts is believed to be initiated by the MRN complex in conjunction with CtIP through internal cleavage...
متن کاملEnd-resection at DNA double-strand breaks in the three domains of life
During DNA repair by HR (homologous recombination), the ends of a DNA DSB (double-strand break) must be resected to generate single-stranded tails, which are required for strand invasion and exchange with homologous chromosomes. This 5'-3' end-resection of the DNA duplex is an essential process, conserved across all three domains of life: the bacteria, eukaryota and archaea. In the present revi...
متن کاملMechanistic analysis of Xenopus EXO1's function in 5′-strand resection at DNA double-strand breaks
The processing of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) into 3' single-stranded tails is the first step of homology-dependent DSB repair. A key player in this process is the highly conserved eukaryotic exonuclease 1 (EXO1), yet its precise mechanism of action has not been rigorously determined. To address this issue, we reconstituted 5'-strand resection in cytosol derived from unfertilized interphase...
متن کاملChromatin Remodeling at DNA Double-Strand Breaks
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) can arise from multiple sources, including exposure to ionizing radiation. The repair of DSBs involves both posttranslational modification of nucleosomes and concentration of DNA-repair proteins at the site of damage. Consequently, nucleosome packing and chromatin architecture surrounding the DSB may limit the ability of the DNA-damage response to access and repa...
