Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of DNA double strand break repair and chromosome aberration formation.

TL;DR: It is proposed that high speed D-NHEJ is an evolutionary development in higher eukaryotes orchestrated around the newly evolved DNA-PKcs and pre-existing factors and achieves within a few minutes restoration of chromosome integrity through an optimized synapsis mechanism operating by a sequence of protein-protein interactions in the context of chromatin and the nuclear matrix.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased G2 chromosomal radiosensitivity in cancer patients: the role of cdk1/cyclin-B activity level in the mechanisms involved.

TL;DR: The cdk1/cyclin-B activity levels during the G2 to M transition impair DNA repair processes and play a major role in the yield of chromatid breaks induced after G2-irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

RENEB intercomparisons applying the conventional Dicentric Chromosome Assay (DCA).

Ursula Oestreicher, +59 more
TL;DR: In case of a large-scale radiological incident, the pooling of ressources by networks can enhance the rapid classification of individuals in medically relevant treatment groups based on the DCA.
Journal ArticleDOI

Checkpoint Abrogation in G2 Compromises Repair of Chromosomal Breaks in Ataxia Telangiectasia Cells

TL;DR: Observations represent the first direct evidence that the G(2) checkpoint facilitates repair of chromosome damage, presumably by supporting repair of DNA DSBs.
