SYCE2 is required for synaptonemal complex assembly, double strand break repair, and homologous recombination
Synapsis is the process by which paired chromosome homologues closely associate in meiosis before crossover. In the synaptonemal complex (SC), axial elements of each homologue connect through molecules of SYCP1 to the central element, which contains the proteins SYCE1 and -2. We have derived mice lacking SYCE2 protein, producing males and females in which meiotic chromosomes align and axes form...
متن کاملEvolving DNA Repair Polymerases: From Double—Strand Break Repair to Base Excision Repair and VDJ Recombination
Currently five polymerases have been identified in Escherichia coli, at least eight in Saccharo‐ myces cerevisiae, nine in Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and fourteen in humans [1-4]. Based on the primary structure of the catalytic subunits, DNA polymerases have been classified into different families. Eukaryotic organisms have four families: A family (Polγ, Polθ and Polν), B family (Polα, Polδ, Po...
متن کاملDouble-strand break repair and homologous recombination in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.
The study of double-strand break repair and homologous recombination in Saccharomyces cerevisiae meiosis has provided important information about the mechanisms involved. However, it has become clear that the resulting recombination models are only partially applicable to repair in mitotic cells, where crossover formation is suppressed. In recent years our understanding of double-strand break r...
متن کاملDouble-strand break repair-adox: Restoration of suppressed double-strand break repair during mitosis induces genomic instability
Double-strand breaks (DSBs) are one of the severest types of DNA damage. Unrepaired DSBs easily induce cell death and chromosome aberrations. To maintain genomic stability, cells have checkpoint and DSB repair systems to respond to DNA damage throughout most of the cell cycle. The failure of this process often results in apoptosis or genomic instability, such as aneuploidy, deletion, or translo...
متن کاملDouble strand break repair.
DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are the most dangerous form of DNA damage and can lead to death, mutation, or malignant transformation. Mammalian cells use three major pathways to repair DSBs: homologous recombination (HR), classical nonhomologous end joining (C-NHEJ), and alternative end joining (A-NHEJ). Cells choose among the pathways by interactions of the pathways with CtIP and 53BP1. HR i...
