Ku-dependent and Ku-independent end-joining pathways lead to chromosomal rearrangements during double-strand break repair in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Chromosomal double-strand breaks (DSBs) can be repaired by either homology-dependent or homology-independent pathways. Nonhomologous repair mechanisms have been relatively less well studied, despite their potential importance in generating chromosomal rearrangements. We have developed a Saccharomyces cerevisiae-based assay to identify and characterize homology-independent chromosomal rearrangem...
متن کاملOpposing roles of RNF8/RNF168 and deubiquitinating enzymes in ubiquitination-dependent DNA double-strand break response signaling and DNA-repair pathway choice
The E3 ubiquitin ligases ring finger protein (RNF) 8 and RNF168 transduce the DNA double-strand break (DSB) response (DDR) signal by ubiquitinating DSB sites. The depletion of RNF8 or RNF168 suppresses the accumulation of DNA-repair regulating factors such as 53BP1 and RAP80 at DSB sites, suggesting roles for RNF8- and RNF168-mediated ubiquitination in DSB repair. This mini-review provides a br...
متن کاملMicrohomology Directs Diverse DNA Break Repair Pathways and Chromosomal Translocations
Chromosomal structural change triggers carcinogenesis and the formation of other genetic diseases. The breakpoint junctions of these rearrangements often contain small overlapping sequences called "microhomology," yet the genetic pathway(s) responsible have yet to be defined. We report a simple genetic system to detect microhomology-mediated repair (MHMR) events after a DNA double-strand break ...
متن کاملChromosomal translocations caused by either pol32-dependent or pol32-independent triparental break-induced replication.
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are harmful DNA lesions that can generate chromosomal rearrangements or chromosome losses if not properly repaired. Despite their association with a number of genetic diseases and cancer, the mechanisms by which DSBs cause rearrangements remain unknown. Using a newly developed experimental assay for the analysis of translocations occurring between two chromosomes in ...
متن کاملTDP1-dependent DNA single-strand break repair and neurodegeneration.
DNA single-strand breaks (SSBs) are the commonest DNA lesions that arise spontaneously in living cells. Cells employ efficient processes for the rapid repair of these breaks and defects in these processes appear to preferentially impact on the nervous system, causing human ataxia. Spinocerebellar ataxia with axonal neuropathy (SCAN1) is a human disease that is associated with a defect in repair...
