Homologous Recombination: Needing to Have My Say
Recent studies in budding and fission yeasts have revealed Mei5 and Sae3 as factors necessary for the proper function of the recombinases Dmc1 and Rad51 in DNA repair and meiotic recombination, providing new insights into how strand exchange proteins are directed along specific recombination pathways.
متن کاملDesigning E1 Deleted Adenoviral Vector by Homologous Recombination
Adenoviruses are used extensively to deliver genes into mammalian cells, particularly where there is a requirement for high-level expression of transgene products in cultured cells, or for use as recombinant viral vaccines or in gene therapy. In spite of their usefulness, the construction of adenoviral vectors (AdV) is a cumbersome and lengthy process that is not readily amenable to the generat...
متن کاملFhit and CHK1 have opposing effects on homologous recombination repair.
Fragile histidine triad (FHIT) gene deletion or promoter methylation and reduced Fhit protein expression occur in approximately 70% of human epithelial tumors and, in some cancers, are clearly associated with tumor progression. Specific Fhit signal pathways have not been identified. We previously reported that compared with Fhit+/+ cells, Fhit-/- cells with an overactivated ATR/CHK1 pathway sho...
متن کاملHomologous recombination
DNA damage, in the form of DNA double-strand breaks, poses a considerable threat to genomic integrity and cell survival. If left unrepaired, a single double-strand break is sufficient to cause cell death and, if repaired inappropriately, a double-strand break may give rise to a potentially oncogenic translocation. Double-strand breaks in genomic DNA may arise accidentally in a number of ways, i...
متن کاملRecombination: Homologous recombination branches out
Homologous recombination can be divided into three key steps: strand exchange, branch migration and resolution. The identification of a protein complex that catalyses branch migration and Holliday junction resolution argues that the mechanism of homologous recombination is conserved from bacteria to man.
