Repair of strand breaks by homologous recombination.
In this review, we discuss the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) using a homologous DNA sequence (i.e., homologous recombination [HR]), focusing mainly on yeast and mammals. We provide a historical context for the current view of HR and describe how DSBs are processed during HR as well as interactions with other DSB repair pathways. We discuss the enzymology of the process, followed by ...
متن کاملThe CDK regulates repair of double-strand breaks by homologous recombination during the cell cycle.
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are dangerous lesions that can lead to genomic instability and cell death. Eukaryotic cells repair DSBs either by nonhomologous end-joining (NHEJ) or by homologous recombination. We investigated the ability of yeast cells (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) to repair a single, chromosomal DSB by recombination at different stages of the cell cycle. We show that cells arres...
متن کاملRepair of site-specific double-strand breaks in a mammalian chromosome by homologous and illegitimate recombination.
In mammalian cells, chromosomal double-strand breaks are efficiently repaired, yet little is known about the relative contributions of homologous recombination and illegitimate recombination in the repair process. In this study, we used a loss-of-function assay to assess the repair of double-strand breaks by homologous and illegitimate recombination. We have used a hamster cell line engineered ...
متن کاملHomologous recombination repair is essential for repair of vosaroxin-induced DNA double-strand breaks
Vosaroxin (formerly voreloxin) is a first-in-class anticancer quinolone derivative that intercalates DNA and inhibits topoisomerase II, inducing site-selective double-strand breaks (DSB), G2 arrest and apoptosis. Objective responses and complete remissions were observed in phase 2 studies of vosaroxin in patients with solid and hematologic malignancies, and responses were seen in patients whose...
متن کاملPhosphorylation of Exo1 modulates homologous recombination repair of DNA double-strand breaks
DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair via the homologous recombination pathway is a multi-stage process, which results in repair of the DSB without loss of genetic information or fidelity. One essential step in this process is the generation of extended single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) regions at the break site. This ssDNA serves to induce cell cycle checkpoints and is required for Rad51 mediated str...
