Journal ArticleDOI

Regulation of DNA double-strand break repair pathway choice

TL;DR: The regulatory factors that regulate DSB repair by NHEJ and HR in yeast and higher eukaryotes are reviewed, including regulated expression and phosphorylation of repair proteins, chromatin modulation of repair factor accessibility, and the availability of homologous repair templates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromatin remodelling at a DNA double-strand break site in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

TL;DR: It is shown that near a DSB phosphorylation of H2A is followed by loss of histones H2B and H3 and increased sensitivity of chromatin to digestion by micrococcal nuclease, which indicates that MRX-dependent nucleosome remodelling regulates the accessibility of factors directly involved in DNA repair by homologous recombination.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene conversion tracts from double-strand break repair in mammalian cells

TL;DR: The results suggest that chromosome ends in mammalian cells are generally protected from extensive degradation prior to recombination, and heterology decreases the efficiency of recombinational repair.
Journal ArticleDOI

A YY1–INO80 complex regulates genomic stability through homologous recombination–based repair

TL;DR: Functional assays revealed that both YY1 and INO80 are essential in homologous recombination–based DNA repair (HRR), which was further supported by the finding that YY 1 preferentially bound a recombination-intermediate structure in vitro.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA-dependent protein kinase suppresses double-strand break-induced and spontaneous homologous recombination.

TL;DR: DNA-PKcs may suppress spontaneous HR through NHEJ of spontaneous DSBs, perhaps at stalled or blocked replication forks, perhaps by means of phosphorylation of RPA.
