Homologous recombination in mammalian cells.
Mouse LTKcells were transfected with a pair of defective Herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase ( t k ) genes. One tk gene had an 8-bp insertion mutation while the second gene had a 100-bp inversion. Extrachromosomal homologous recombination leading to the reconstruction of a functional tk gene was monitored by selecting for tk positive cells using medium supplemented with hypoxanthine/ aminopte...
متن کاملMismatch repair during homologous and homeologous recombination.
Homologous recombination (HR) and mismatch repair (MMR) are inextricably linked. HR pairs homologous chromosomes before meiosis I and is ultimately responsible for generating genetic diversity during sexual reproduction. HR is initiated in meiosis by numerous programmed DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs; several hundred in mammals). A characteristic feature of HR is the exchange of DNA strands, wh...
متن کاملPathways for mitotic homologous recombination in mammalian cells.
Homologous recombination (HR) is essential for cellular survival in mammals. In this review, the substrates for HR, the pathways of repair, and their end products (i.e. sister chromatid exchange (SCE), gene conversion, deletions or tandem duplications) are discussed. HR is involved in the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) and DNA lesions that occur at replication forks. A classical DSB ...
متن کاملIntrachromosomal recombination between well-separated, homologous sequences in mammalian cells.
In the present study, we investigated intrachromosomal homologous recombination in a murine hybridoma in which the recipient for recombination, the haploid, endogenous chromosomal immunoglobulin mu-gene bearing a mutation in the constant (Cmu) region, was separated from the integrated single copy wild-type donor Cmu region by approximately 1 Mb along the hybridoma chromosome. Homologous recombi...
متن کاملDouble-strand-break-induced homologous recombination in mammalian cells.
In mammalian cells, the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) occurs by both homologous and non-homologous mechanisms. Indirect evidence, including that from gene targeting and random integration experiments, had suggested that non-homologous mechanisms were significantly more frequent than homologous ones. However, more recent experiments indicate that homologous recombination is also a pr...
